Meet the Nicholls Team

Kathryn

Kathryn is the 4^th generation to step into running the well established bayside curtains and blinds business. Kathryn grew up surrounded by the curtains, fabrics, and interior styling – it was an integral part of her life growing up.  Kathryn has a passion and natural flair for fabrics and admits curtains are her favourite product. With home interior styling running thick through her veins, Kathryn offers expert advice and a wealth of experience to assist clients in planning their perfectly styled rooms.

Kathryn has made Nicholls a one-stop-shop for all things soft furnishings and loves the relationships she has built in the Melbourne Bayside community. Whether it’s transforming a room or completing a new home, clients continue to trust in Kathryns’ proven recommendations for their ‘forever home’ interiors.

Doug

We’d need a book to share with you just how much experience and knowledge Doug brings to the Nicholls team. But put it this way – a Bachelors’s degree in Economics, trained at Melbourne College of Textiles, and being born and raised in an entrepreneurial family has him more than qualified to lead and inspire the team here at Nicholls.

One of the greatest benefits of working in a business with so much history is the people. Over 100 years Nicholls Interiors have built a fantastic rapport with the Community, which makes working with customers and their future generations somewhat special.

Mary

Mary came to Nicholls with 15 years of industry experience running a busy curtain workroom and sales showroom.
Like many of the team here at Nicholls, Mary has a passion and flair for interior design and is often to go-to person that our staff call on for that second opinion on fabric cut or print design for curtains, blinds or outdoor awnings.

Kristen

Kristen has been working in the window furnishings industry since 2008. Before joining the crew at Nicholls Kristen worked with interior styling heavyweights including David Jones, Laura Ashley and Marco Fabrics. Kristen has a creative eye and you’ll often find her deep in fabric swatch books looking over the latest fabric designs and planning decorating combinations and suggestions for her client’s window coverings and soft furnishing projects.

It is a joy and pleasure to come into the lovely environment at Nicholls and to work alongside the owners and staff.

Eliza

Eliza joined the Nicholls team in late 2016 and is in charge of our installs diary, customer service calls and repairs. If you’ve received a free measure and quote then its likely Eliza had a hand in making it happen. We measure and quote six days of the week so you can imagine just how busy (and essential) Eliza’s job is.

Before joining Nicholls Eliza had a long career in the exhibition industry, we think that is why she so great at managing all the shop schedules so efficiently.

Eliza enjoys her role not only because of the wonderful and professional staff she gets to work with each day but her pivotal instore role also allows her to also assist customers to update their spaces with beautiful products.

I really enjoy meeting our customers in the showroom and having a chat about different products or fabrics that would suit them. I just love beautiful fabrics!

Nathan

Nathan is our full time installer so many of our clients would have met Nathan over the years. He does all our service calls and has more than 15 years of measuring and installation experience in the window furnishing industry.
