If you follow design, television, or even the restaurant scene, you’ve likely come across Taniya Nayak’s work without even realizing it. Her signature style shows up everywhere…on screen, in luxury interiors, and inside some of the most well-designed hospitality spaces across the country. Now, she’s bringing that experience to South Florida as a Celebrity Guest at the Palm Beach Home Design and Remodeling Show.
A Career Built on Design at Every Level
Taniya’s career is one of the most well-rounded in the industry. She’s a familiar face on HGTV, appearing as a host, mentor, and designer on shows like Rock the Block, Battle on the Beach, and Build It Forward. She’s also a longtime judge on ABC’s hit series The Great Christmas Light Fight and The Great Halloween Fight, where creativity and execution are pushed to the next level.
Before that, she spent 23 seasons as a featured designer on Food Network’s Restaurant Impossible, helping transform struggling restaurants into fully reimagined spaces. This role solidified her reputation for delivering high-impact results under pressure.
Design That Extends Far Beyond TV
While many recognize her from television, Taniya’s real impact is felt in the spaces she creates every day. As the founder of Taniya Nayak Design, Inc., she leads projects that go far beyond what viewers see on screen. Her work moves seamlessly between luxury homes, large-scale developments, and standout hospitality spaces like Yellow Door Taqueria and Tuscan Market, along with national brands such as Ruth’s Chris Steak House and Fleming’s. Each project reflects her ability to create spaces that feel elevated but still work effortlessly in real life.
A Brand That Continues to Evolve
Taniya’s creativity doesn’t stop at interiors. She’s expanded her influence into product design, bringing her aesthetic into materials and finishes used in spaces across the country. From curated surface collections to wallcoverings featured in major hotel brands, her work continues to shape how modern interiors come together.
Her reach has also extended into major collaborations, including being personally selected by Ellen DeGeneres as a spokesperson for her home collection. Along with features in top publications and national television appearances, Taniya has built a presence that goes well beyond design alone — while still staying rooted in spaces that are meant to be lived in and experienced.
