Interior Designer Wellington — A Clear Direction for Your Home
Wellington Interior Designer & Home Clarity Consultant
Helping Wellington homeowners create calm, cohesive homes with clarity, direction and confidence
When your home doesn't feel right, it's hard to know what to change.
You might have ideas, pieces you like, or plans you've been sitting on — but bringing everything together in a way that works can feel overwhelming.
You find yourself second-guessing decisions, changing things that don't solve the real problem, and wondering why your home still doesn't feel quite right.
It's not a lack of good taste.
It's a lack of clarity.
Hi I’m Nicci Tong
Interior Designer and Home Clarity Consultant at Homes with Soul.
I help homeowners step back, see their home as a whole, and define a clear direction — so they can move forward with confidence, without second-guessing every decision.
Wellington homes have their own character — and their own challenges.
From older villas and bungalows to homes shaped by wind, light, and changing conditions, many Wellington homeowners live in spaces that have evolved over decades through renovations, additions, and changing family needs.
Over time, it becomes harder to see what's really making your home feel "off" — and where to focus next.
The Home Clarity Plan
The Home Clarity Plan helps you step back and see your home as a whole — so you can understand what's working, what's not, and move forward with a clear direction for your home.

Each Home Clarity Plan is tailored to your home and priorities, but typically includes a clear design direction, room-by-room recommendations, guidance on what to keep and what to change, and a prioritised action plan to help you move forward with confidence over time.

Many interior designers focus on selecting furniture, colours and finishes.
My approach starts with clarity.
I help homeowners understand what's working, what's not, and what will make the biggest difference to how their home feels and functions. The goal isn't just a beautiful home — it's having the clarity, direction and confidence to make good decisions over time.
-
Yes.
Many of my clients already own pieces they love but aren't sure how to bring everything together.
Rather than starting from scratch, I help you identify what to keep, what to change, and how to create a cohesive home using a combination of existing and new pieces where appropriate.
-
Not at all.
Many clients come to me because their home feels unsettled, overwhelming, or no longer reflects how they want to live.
The Home Clarity Plan helps you gain clarity and direction whether you're planning a renovation, redecorating a room, or simply trying to make better decisions about your home.
-
Yes.
While I'm based in Wellington and work locally throughout the region, I also work virtually with homeowners across New Zealand.
Many aspects of the Home Clarity Plan can be delivered remotely using photos, videos and online meetings.
