Nick Lewis Talks Accessibility
August 18, 2025
Nick Lewis has built a reputation for making interior design approachable, stylish, and timeless. His YouTube channel has inspired millions of viewers to reimagine their homes with intention and personality.
Pairing Nick’s passion for smart, beautiful interiors with my mission of creating accessible, barrier-free spaces made for a powerful discussion. Together, we highlighted how universal design principles don’t just help those with disabilities—they make homes better for everyone.
At Blue Copper Design, we believe great design is for everyone. That’s why I (Maegan Blau, founder and principal designer) was so excited to sit down with Nick Lewis, one of YouTube’s leading voices in interior design, to discuss accessibility, timeless style, and how design can truly empower the way we live.

Why This Conversation Matters
Interior design is often presented through a single lens: what’s beautiful. But for millions of people—including those with disabilities, people planning to age in place, and families who want homes that last a lifetime—function and accessibility are equally important.
In my conversation with Nick, we dove into:
- Accessible design basics – how small choices can make a big impact on independence and comfort.
- Aging in place trends – why designing homes that adapt to life’s changes is becoming essential.
- The balance of style and function – how barrier-free design doesn’t have to look “clinical” or “institutional.”
- Designing with courage – how Blue Copper Design’s philosophy of “brave aesthetics” shapes every project.
Accessibility as the Future of Interior Design
Accessibility isn’t a trend. It’s the future. Whether you’re planning a remodel, building a new home, or simply updating your space, accessible design ensures longevity, safety, and comfort. From thoughtful bathroom layouts to transfer-height furniture, every detail matters.
In the interview, I share real-life examples from my work at Blue Copper Design, showing how accessibility and style can live in harmony.

Final Thoughts
I’m grateful to Nick for shining a spotlight on the importance of accessibility in design. This conversation is one step toward normalizing the idea that beautiful homes should also be functional, safe, and inclusive.
