Nikki is the creative behind Kitten Lane, a little design studio nestled in the Brisbane Valley, Australia.
She draws inspiration from nature, her rural childhood, and her daily adventures with her two small children.
Nikki is often drawn to soft and dreamy colour palettes and creating with relaxed, cosy interiors in mind.

I love the concept of creating a mini collection. Each Monthly Creative Brief has an on trend theme and colour palette which provides me with a clear focus each month.
I love that all the research on design trends has already been done, so I can just jump in and start creating, which is a great help when I’m also juggling two little ones.
The art calls are also an awesome bonus!
My Top Tip:
I like to mull things over for a couple of weeks first and also pin anything that catches my eye. Quite often I will start seeing the brief’s theme pop up in different places or see something that will spark a new idea.
My design process tends to be 95% thinking about the concept and 5% actually designing it
