Nikita - FdA (Distinction) Interior Design
Creative Director
Hello, I’m Nikita and I love what I do, even if juggling it with family life can be a challenge! My first job in an architecture firm gave me a strong understanding of the whole build process. I found roles in high end showrooms in London rewarding, but missed the personal touch so I moved to Winchester - where I met Kier! I started Honest by Design because I saw an opportunity to offer honest advice to clients, with services genuinely tailored to your life.
Kier - BA Hons
Head of Installation
Hello, I’m Kier and I hate writing things like this! I love working with wood because I don’t like talking much. I enjoy the flexibility and challenge of working with different products. As well as installing kitchens I undertake bespoke interior work Nikita has designed with you. My business, K Tap Carpentry, also offers decorating and other complementary services - ensuring the installation of your project is seamless.
Aurora
Chief Happiness Officer
Hello, I’m Aurora, Nikita & Kiers daughter. I love site visits, meeting new people, and when the light on Daddy’s drill comes on! I’ve inspired my parents to find more sustainable solutions as they look to the future of our family and our planet.

Trevor
Installer
Hello, I’m Trevor, and I’ve been told I’m a fountain of carpentry knowledge. I’ve worked with Nikita since 2008 (for my sins)! I also taught Kier everything he knows – and it was a joy to pass on what my grandfather taught me. This is all I’ve ever done and I’ve worked for a whole range of clients and businesses around Berkshire and Hampshire.
Antony
Decorator
Hello, I’m Antony, I love to talk and make up for how little Kier says! I met Kier, Nikita & Trevor when we all worked together in Winchester. Nowadays I mostly have a paint brush in hand and I’m always in a good mood. I like working with Honest by Design because it’s like a family.
