In the heart of Delray Beach, the Aspen House emerges as a haven of calm sophistication and practical living. Designed by Nikki Levy, the creative force behind Nikki Levy Interiors, the project embodies her signature ability to harmonize timeless elegance with everyday functionality. With over a decade of experience in luxury interiors, Nikki is known for her client-focused approach, ensuring each design reflects the individuality and lifestyle of the people who call it home. Her work is further enriched by a team of exceptional designers who challenge and inspire each other, creating spaces that balance her distinct vision with a depth of creativity and collaboration.
Nikki’s work stands out for its refined material selection and an intuitive sense of balance, honed over years of creating bespoke spaces across South Florida and beyond. Her passion for design, combined with a deep respect for practicality, results in homes that are not only visually stunning but also deeply livable. The Aspen House is no exception—its serene aesthetic and thoughtful design speak to her talent for creating spaces that elevate the ordinary into the extraordinary.

A Harmonious Blend of Warmth and Luxury
Nikki Levy’s design philosophy is rooted in her belief that thoughtful material selection is the foundation of a well-curated interior. “The soft wood tones used throughout the home create a visual story that has moments in between,” Nikki shares. “The use of texture and color, along with small details, makes all the difference. These elements layered together read as sophisticated and luxurious but still warm and inviting.”
This intentional layering is showcased throughout the Aspen House. In the kitchen, a marble backsplash with dramatic veining takes center stage, while open shelving provides a sense of airy elegance. The soft glow of oversized pendant lights creates an inviting warmth, balancing the kitchen’s beauty with its functionality. “The client wanted to feel like she was in a space of beauty, not just functionality,” Nikki notes. “However, don’t be fooled—it’s a highly functioning kitchen, but dressed so pretty.”

Designing for Real Lives, Not Just Lifestyles
While the Aspen House exudes elegance, it’s also designed for real people. “We design for people who have kids and pets and want to use their home without hesitation,” Nikki explains. “This home is all about walking the fine line between beauty and how this family lives their lives.”
Durable yet luxurious fabrics, inviting sofas, and flexible layouts reflect this ethos. The home encourages connection, with seamless transitions between the kitchen and living areas that foster both intimate family moments and lively gatherings. “There’s so much on offer now that we no longer have to choose form over function or vice versa,” Nikki adds. The result is a space where life unfolds effortlessly, framed by beauty.

Collaborative Solutions Amid Challenges
Designing during a time of material shortages brought its challenges, but Nikki emphasizes the importance of collaboration. “We had a client and General Contractor who worked seamlessly with us, and we pivoted as a team when we hit an obstacle,” she shares. This spirit of collaboration extends to the design process itself. One of Nikki Levy Interiors’ incredible designers took the lead on this project, forming a strong connection with the family and infusing her own creativity into the home. The result is a testament to the beauty of team-driven discussions and shared ideas.
Artful Details That Define the Home
The Aspen House is replete with custom touches that make it a true reflection of its owners. These bespoke details are the result of a deeply collaborative process, where the team’s input and discussion shaped the home’s distinct character. Her team’s thoughtful approach and connection with the family played a pivotal role in ensuring the design felt personal and meaningful. From the scalloped cabinetry in the primary bathroom—a design Nikki calls “inspiration from the design gods”—to the striking driftwood console table in the entryway, every element tells a story.

In the primary bathroom, scalloped wood cabinetry provides a whimsical yet refined detail, softened further by the marble surfaces and modern lighting. “Because it suited our clients so well, it was an obvious way to go,” Nikki says.

Breaking Rules to Create Meaningful Spaces
Nikki challenges conventional design boundaries to create spaces that feel authentic and personal. “I’m not a huge believer that spaces can’t commingle,” she says. “A couch in the kitchen—amazing. A daybed in the family room—go for it. This is the one space in the entire world that represents you, so you might as well do exactly what it is you want.”
High ceilings and carefully curated furnishings define individual areas while maintaining an open flow. The result is a home that feels expansive yet intimate, striking a delicate balance between openness and purpose.
A Sanctuary of Calm Sophistication
The Aspen House stands as a vivid reflection of Nikki Levy’s creative mastery. It is also a celebration of the collaborative spirit that defines her firm, where talented designers contribute their unique talents to bring Nikki’s vision to life. Through the interplay of natural materials, layered textures, and artful details, she has created a home that transcends the ordinary.
