3D VISUALISATION ARTIST

Nikki is the face and talent behind all the amazing home 3D visualisations you see in our studio. Nikki’s 3D images give a better spatial understanding of how our design will look and feel once the space is complete, and help our clients easily visualise the end product.

This not only boosts our communication and engagement with project decision-makers, but minimises the potential for error before our clients commit to a build or renovation.

We love the value that Nikki brings to our team. This talented documentor is unfailingly energetic, friendly and responsive. And when we say energetic, we really mean it…. Outside of work for fun she does boxing and loves snow skiing!

ADMINISTRATIVE AND CLIENT SUPPORT

Eliza handles all the administrative tasks we can’t get to so that we can focus on making our clients home as perfect as it can possibly be.

From emails to scheduling, financial coordination, website administration and document formatting, Eliza is our go-to girl; whose main role is customer care and making sure our clients are informed, engaged and excited throughout the entire design process.

Eliza ensures our studio is smooth-running and stress-free, and we are incredibly grateful to have such a positive, helpful and down-to-earth as the first port of call on our team!

We love the images and stories Eliza shares from her home on the Mornington Peninsula in Victoria, which she shares with her husband, two young sons and Golden Retriever duo.

With an eye for detail and a unique “non-designer” perspective, we couldn’t be luckier to have the administrative assistance of Eliza to balance out the creativity of our design team.

JOUNIOR DESIGNER

Blossom is our junior designer showing the future of the industry. Known more commonly as Blossy, here is a woman extracting all there is from life, combining hobbies and pleasures with livelihood for a newfound way to merge work and lifestyle this century.

She sings in a pop band, delves deep into cultural diversity, dabbles in floristry and can do everything from spatial planning, documentation, digital renders, furniture styling, fixture instalment, mood boards, presentation packages and more.

Blossom works in the team to help create the stunning interior and exterior colour palettes that ML Interior Design is known for. She has a great eye for detail and her product knowledge is invaluable.
