Designer Spotlight - Kate Nixon

We seriously LOVE the Interior Designers we work with and we want to shout their skills from the rooftops.

DESIGNER SPOTLIGHT is where we showcase
their incredible talents a little further.

This month we shine the spotlight on Kate Nixon.

An Australian designer, stylist and long-
standing interiors editor of Australian House &
Garden magazine.

If you had to describe your design style in three words, what would
they be?

A:
Welcoming, layered and detailed.

Would you rather bright and bold
or cozy and neutral?

A:
Cosy and neutral all day long!

Our hardware has had the privilege of gracing some of your projects. Can you tell us what you love about our hardware?
A:
We love the simplicity of your designs and the natural finishes. We often retrofit off the shelf bedside tables and cabinets with
your pulls and knobs to add character. They are so well priced for the quantities
required in kitchen and bedroom cabinetry.

Q:
Where does your design inspiration come from?

I am very much inspired by nature - am always amazed by the intricate details, tones and textures to be found when you take time to pause and discover.

What would you say is the next big trend?
A:
I think an English sensibility is returning to interiors - less minimalist more maximalist with classical detailing and warmer tones.

What would be your favourite Hepburn Hardware product?

A:
I love the proportion and patina of the Ascot and Surrey Knobs in scorched black.
