Creating Space For Results With Refreshingly Impactful Designs
Pennsylvania Interior Designers Serving The Tri-State Area
We design, renovate, and furnish spaces — but most importantly — we elevate first impressions with long-lasting styles that enrich the look and long-term benefits of your property.
We are Pennsylvania interior designers who take the time to listen and illustrate your vision. No shortcuts, definitely not cookie-cutter, and certainly adding color to a process that should be as enjoyable as it is powerful. Some call it a remodel, but we see it as a revolution of style and profits.
The heart of the matter
Our Mission Is To Help You Bring Home Results Through Design + Construction
Our full-service design is turn-key. From consultation to completion, we will handle every step with a trusted team of designers, contractors, and project managers for your residential or commercial property. And because many of our projects become short and long-term rentals, our sister company, Wanderlust Design Stays, takes care of the property management too.
The below is just the start of what we do...
Full-Service Design | Budget Oversight
Project Management | Compliance + Regulations
Custom Solutions | Functional + Durable spaces
Integrating Tech + Sustainability
Meet The Founder + Primary Designer
Nadia’s distinct background and far-reaching expertise are beyond comparison. The heart and soul she’s poured into the last 20 years is evident. To note, she led the renovation and design for thousands of multi-family units apartments from Erie to Cleveland and even owning properties as far as Texas. She is also the co-owner of a multi family property management company and owns a vacation rental company.
While Nadia loves traveling and “tasting her way through life,” her favorite part of the world is anywhere with her husband and children — usually in the vicinity of live music. She is also a lacrosse referee, Habitat for Humanity volunteer, and dog mom to their French Bulldog, Ziggy Marley.

Before BeBe
Nadia was born in the Democratic Republic of Congo, and there, it was her mother (the namesake of BeBe Design House) who inspired her early love for design. There were no big retail furniture stores, but rather, the mom-and-pop businesses that made the furniture themselves. While they did not have much, they did have a well-designed and minimal home, wherever it was.
When they experienced the hardships of war, it only strengthened Nadia’s resolve to find opportunities and beauty around her. She moved to the US at age 13 and went on to college where she studied hotel and restaurant management and sales. In her travels, her eyes were always drawn to the local crafts and designs.
-
After working in pharmaceutical sales, she co-founded an interior design company with two partners where she worked for 6 years on projects worth a collective of over 7 million dollars. Among the most notable of her accomplishments was the renovation of 150 multi-family units in just 5 months.
With a passion for simplifying the most complex of projects, she formed BeBe Design House to serve as a celebration of innovation, economic impact, and coloring outside the lines. It is a sincere honor for Nadia and our team to translate conversations into one-of-a-kind environments.
“Design simply opens the door to opportunities of purpose, enrichment, and the pure appreciation of the beauty this world has to offer.”
