Managing Director
(AKA Big Boss Lady)
It takes a hardworking team of people to bring you a great product like this, and here's a little introduction to us. We're only a small company, so we can offer you a really great product - we truly care about each of our customers. Read on to find out a little bit more about all of us.
The Team
I'm Nicola and currently studying Textile Design at the University of Huddersfield. My role as managing director means that I spend most of my time sat at my computer drawing up timetables and plans, keeping a watchful eye over the others. But contrary to popular belief I hate being bossy it just, I guess comes naturally. Possibly more suited to being more arty of mind I find the challenges of my role quite rewarding. Generally speaking in my degree I spend most of my time weaving as I'm captivated by the range of texture and variations that can be created. Apart from Textiles I love to spend time mountain biking and snowboarding in the alps whenever possible, as I feel at home in the mountains and think its always necessary to find your limits and then challenge them.
I’m Amy, part of the Design and Technology team, where I spend my time helping to create what goes on your walls, getting messy and cleaning it all up again. We experiment a lot with colour, pattern, textures and techniques to produce sensory wallpapers, keeping the little people stimulated, especially at home. A bit about me: I love anything and everything ‘arty’ and dislike most physical activities. My passion is creating surface patterns (so it’s a good job I study Surface Design for Fashion and Interiors). My greatest skill is procrastination; it leads to great things, although others tend to disagree.
Howdy, i'm Alice and I'm on the Design and Technology team. I'm currently a Surface Design student at Huddersfield University. Art is my passion and design gives it a purpose. A started out in a small village just outside of Halifax. I was always very creative throughout high school and after my A levels i went on to do an Art Foundation course at Batley School of Art and Design. This one year on foundation was the most important year of my career. The skills and techniques I learnt here built up the base of my designing pyramid. I achieved a distinction on my foundation and accepted my place at The University of Huddersfield. Since starting university I've grown as a designer and as a person, learning things I never thought I would.

I’m Kate, and I’m in charge of this website. It’s up to me what goes on it and where (I even picked out the spotty background), so if you have any helpful suggestions – or want to complain at me – feel free to drop me a comment on the ‘contact us’ page.
A little bit about me: I’m 20, and I like to shop, eat, bake (and then eat the things I bake), read and go on lots of holidays. When I'm not doing the above, or thinking about doing the the above, I'm studying Fashion Buying at Uni.
I’m Jess and I am in charge of finance. This role means it is my job to calculate and explain our price choices for our final product. I do this by comparing average wallpaper prices within the UK market and calculating costs involved for production and other company overheads.
I am currently studying Fashion and Textile Buying at the University of Huddersfield and it is my ambition to become a womenswear Fashion Buyer as I am equally interested in fashion as I am business.
Apart from going out with friends I also love to follow fashion blogs and read magazines… basically nothing sporty and anything to do with fashion!
Hi I’m Rachel, I am in charge of all the boring marketing! My job is to find out what you want from us and how much of it so feel free to email me about anything you want to change about our product and how we can make it better for you, you can find my details on the ‘contact us’ page. A little bit about me - I’m 21, I am studying textile design at The University of Huddersfield. I really enjoy working with children and I’m hoping to become a textiles teacher when I graduate.

Hi, my name is Mary Fernandes and I’m in charge of sourcing.
My job is to search for different manufacturers - preferably in the UK - that are willing to create and sell our product, by comparing the best suitable suppliers to consider our demand and supply situations, while minimizing risk and costs.
I organize production of our sensory wallpaper andwhat materials and printing supplies we need like the flock, foil, puff binder and the adhesives.
I’m a printer and designer at heart and I am currently in my second year studying Textile Design for Fashion and Interior at Huddersfield University, but also like to paint landscapes and have a love for my home Brighton, the sea, the cliffs, the art and the culture and I love walking to find it.
