Hi there! I'm Nicola, a creative soul with a passion for bringing ideas to life. My journey began with studying Industrial Design, where I learned to blend functionality with aesthetics in innovative ways. Adapting to change, I found myself drawn into the world of web design, where I honed my skills and embraced what was the digital frontier.
But life is an adventure, and mine led me to California, which opened up a whole new chapter. Here, I delved into the realm of Fashion Design and Pattern making for clothing, immersing myself in the creativity and craftsmanship that define the industry.
My path eventually led me to the furniture industry in a role that brought all my skills together. It was during this time I discovered a love for breathing new life into old pieces through restoration. And my curiosity for surface design grew, being surrounded by the luxurious colours and textures of upholstery fabrics.
Life took a beautiful turn when I became a parent, infusing my world with even more inspiration and purpose. Throughout it all, I've created clothing, crafted costumes, made home furnishings and restored furniture, finding joy in every stitch and stroke.
In 2022, emerging from lockdown ignited a fresh wave of enthusiasm within me. Eager not to waste a moment, I embarked on a new learning journey, diving into the world of surface pattern design. It's been a delightful exploration, blending my past experiences with newfound creativity.
I'm incredibly fortunate to be surrounded by a supportive community of friends and family who inspire me daily. With their encouragement, I continue to create beautiful things, infusing spaces with style and personality. It's a journey I cherish, filled with endless possibilities and boundless creativity.
I would love for you to join me, let’s bring our visions to life and make every space a canvas for beauty and inspiration.
