Katrina Hobbs

Interweaving her studies as a Photographer & Interior Designer and work as an Actress & Presenter, Katrina loves to combine with these creative strands when working with design clients.

Studying Interior Design at Sydney Design School, she specialised in colour & textiles.

After graduating she spent 4 years working with the renowned Interior Designer & Textile importer Tigger Hall.

This job saw Katrina working alongside Sydney's top Interior Designers to help source exquisite textiles, lighting & products for high end residential & commercial interiors.

It was this experience that led her to design her first collection of textiles & homeware products.

When Katrina returned to NZ in 2018 she opened a retail space on Ponsonby Road, stocking not only her own line of soft furnishings but an array of the gorgeous homewares she'd been introduced to with her work in Sydney.

Applying her Interior Design skills she's now working with clients here in Auckland and around the world to create spaces that make their homes unique.

Post Covid (if it's not too early to say that!) Katrina has moved her retail store to an online only presence with the popular range of silk velvet and pure linen printed cushions available alongside her photographic work.
