FIG NYC is a New York-based design studio founded in 2006 by Nina Garbiras, a Manhattan designer known for creating refined and thoughtful residential and retail environments. With a focus on subtle layering of textures and shapes, Garbiras seamlessly blends modern and contemporary elements with vintage touches to craft stylish spaces tailored to each client and architectural style.
Garbiras draws inspiration from her extensive travels and studies in art and design across Paris, London, and Milan, bringing a global perspective to her projects. Her portfolio ranges from transforming an 1860’s farmhouse in upstate New York to designing a modern Art Deco duplex in downtown Brooklyn, showcasing her ability to infuse warmth and casual elegance into every interior she works on.
Emphasizing a deep respect for location, history, and architecture, FIG NYC collaborates with contemporary furniture studios and sources unique pieces from auction houses and flea markets around the world. Garbiras’ fluency in French and Italian further enriches her design process, allowing her to create spaces that exude sophistication and charm while reflecting the individuality of each client and space.
