Meet Noz

After leaving a successful marketing career, Noz Nozawa launched Noz Design in 2014 to transform a lifelong passion into her dream job. Now known for some of the boldest and most original interiors in the Bay Area and beyond, the California native was named Sunset Magazine’s 2020 Best Designer of the West.

We ask Noz about her design process, secrets to creating a bold and unforgettable space, and how she finds inspiration almost anywhere.

Fun Fact: She’s a color synaesthetic, so she sees numbers as colors!
