Meet Nicole

I’m Nicole Grimaldi, the creative mind behind Room & Rhythm Consulting, a space where my passions for interior architecture, visual merchandising, and marketing strategy come together to shape meaningful brand experiences.

My journey began with a love for the arts, from painting and performing to exploring how design can tell human stories. Over time, I discovered that design isn’t just about making things look beautiful; it’s about the connection between people, spaces, and the emotions they inspire. That belief guided me to build a career that bridges creativity and strategy, helping businesses transform their environments into spaces that truly reflect who they are.

With a background in Interior Architecture and Visual Merchandising, I approach each project with both artistic vision and business insight. My design philosophy is rooted in listening to clients, to spaces, and to the subtle details that make every story unique. I believe great design should not only attract attention but also evoke emotion and deliver measurable results.

Mision

To design spaces and experiences that connect people and brands through storytelling, functionality, and emotion.

Vision

To become a trusted partner for businesses looking for meaningful and memorable design that improves customer engagement.

Values

Creativity. Simplicity. Strategy. Connection.

A Little More About Me

I hold a background in Interior Architecture and Visual Merchandising, and I’m currently completing my Business and Marketing program at Camosun College. My work includes visual displays, retail layouts, and design projects that combine brand storytelling, customer behavior, and strategy.

I love collaborating with creative brands and small businesses that want to stand out and build real connection with their audience. I’m always finding new ways to express my creativity, whether it’s through DIY projects at home, visual props for retail displays, dancing, or exploring new ideas. Design is not just my work, it’s the way I see the world.
