YourHome by Design podcast host Nico—expert in interior design and neuroaesthetics for better living

HEY THERE!

Hi, I’m Nico—designer, space enthusiast, and lover of all things home.

YourHome by Design to help you shape a home that supports your real life—not just one that looks good in a magazine. Around here, we mix science with soul, a little bit of research with a lot of heart, and always leave room for beauty, clarity, and calm.

Nico Smutylo, founder of Paro and host of YourHome by Design podcast, sharing her personal journey of transforming her home for wellness and clarity.

But it wasn't always this way.

There was a time when my home felt more like a source of stress than a place to recharge. When I began studying how our spaces affect our mood, focus, and well-being, everything shifted. That journey led me to create Paro and this podcast, so I could help others move beyond surface-level design and build homes that actually support better living. Today, my home works with me—and I get to guide others to that same feeling of ease, clarity, and purpose.

This isn’t about having it all figured out—it’s about learning a better way. What changed for me is possible for you too.
