Luxury Interior Designer in New Hope, PA
NGD Interiors brings warm, timeless design to New Hope and the Bucks County — with a particular devotion to luxury kitchens and baths.
Interiors made for New Hope
New Hope is the artistic soul of Bucks County — a riverside village of galleries, restored mills, and creative homeowners who want interiors with genuine personality and provenance.
For New Hope clients we design with confidence and character: honey onyx, artisanal plaster, sculptural lighting, and primary suites that feel like a private retreat above the Delaware.
The architecture behind New Hope
New Hope’s housing sits directly on top of its history as a river-crossing mill village: 18th-century fieldstone farmhouses, canal-side cottages built along the Delaware Canal, and converted mill and carriage buildings share the same few blocks as galleries and small theaters. The New Hope Village District and the Phillips Mill Historic District are both listed on the National Register, and the town includes a genuine curiosity — the “Little English Village,” a cluster of Gothic and Tudor-style buildings developed by architect, craftsman, and artist Morgan Colt in the early 20th century as part of the Arts and Crafts movement, still visible along River Road.
Homes like the double stone house at 116 New Street — built by Joshua Vansant just after 1800, its two sides mirror images of each other in the Georgian manner, with a canal-side clapboard addition — show how tightly regulated and materially consistent New Hope’s historic core remains; renovations in certain zones must meet design standards that preserve the town’s visual structure. Outside the borough center, larger riverfront estates along River Road mix genuine 18th-century stone construction with mid-20th-century homes built to match that vernacular. It’s a town of narrow alleys, brick-lined streets, and real material history — exactly the kind of backdrop that rewards confident, character-driven interiors rather than anything generic.
It’s a town of narrow alleys, brick-lined streets, and real material history — exactly the kind of backdrop that rewards confident, character-driven interiors rather than anything generic. For clients renovating inside the historic zones, that means working with a design review process that protects exterior character, so the personality has to live inside: honey onyx and artisanal plaster in a primary bath, sculptural lighting over a kitchen island, rooms that feel like they belong to an artist’s river town rather than a subdivision. Those constraints tend to produce our most memorable New Hope projects, not our most compromised ones.

“NGD has been fantastic to work with! Nina completely understood my vision for my office and executed the design perfectly. I honestly don’t know what I would have done with out her. She worked well with my budget, and she handled the contractors, who were a bit difficult, exceptionally well. I would highly recommend NGD for anyone looking for a designer!”
