What I got wrong about niching

I used to think niching meant demographics—targeting high-income homeowners or busy families. But I’ve learned that a niche is so much more than who you serve. It’s about what makes your approach unique.

Your niche could be defined by your style, like warm minimalism or biophilic design. Or maybe it’s your process—collaborative co-design or a white-glove experience. It could even be your values, such as sustainability or wellness.

I now see niching as aligning what you do best with what your ideal clients value most. It’s not limiting—it’s amplifying your unique strengths and attracting the right opportunities.

Question: what do you do best, and what do your clients value most?

Since 2017, I have helped over 100 interior designers, builders, builders, and architects – from those just starting out to award-winning designers published in Architectural Digest, Luxe, and more. My work is centered around face-to-face Zoom calls to help you uncover who you are and how you think as a designer. Then my partner, Meng, and I bring that to life in a way that matches the premium clients you want to attract.
