about

Nik A Ramli has worked on a variety of interior design projects such as domestic, commercial and exhibition stands.

His first public interior design exhibition was at the Malaysian Sungai Wang Plaza, Kuala Lumpur. A year later Nik moved to the United Kingdom (UK) to pursue his higher education resulting in an MA in Interior Design.

Now residing in the UK, Nik’s works has been featured in the Concept For Living magazine. The magazine noted that “Nik has a flair for mixing designer pieces with inexpensive finds, creating easy-to-live-with modern schemes. He has a lively, playful approach and a good eye for colour”.

In 2005, Nik came runner up in the public vote at the Concept For Living Interior Design Awards Show.

Concept For Living magazine described him as:

“Rising ... designer, Nik A Ramli, who took part in this year’s Concept For Living Design Awards, is known for his ability to create laid back glamour on almost any budget.”

“He is a firm believer in the fact that with a little careful planning, design classics and budget finds can be combined to a dazzling effect, a philosophy that made him popular with Design Awards judge and founder of Red Or Dead, Wayne Hemingway.”

“Wayne said of Nik: “He’s a great communicator who can work to a budget. He’s confident and articulate enough to go far.”

In 2007 Nik was interviewed alongside some of the BBC’s and Channel 4’s most popular presenters as well as for international radio with regards to his design style and awards show. The designer stated:

“My style is contemporary, but encompasses old, new and elegant touches. I love injecting a touch of my own personality, as well as something unexpected into a home’s design, perhaps having an item with sentimental value such as an old metal toy car or even your first lunch box in one of your display units. As for bigger projects, my style varies. At the end of the day it all depends on the clients, the brief and budget.”

At the 2007 Concept For Living – sponsored Home And Garden Show Nik’s contemporary room set design proved popular with both the judges and the public.
