Welcome to Nordic Grey Designs.

Hi, I’m Katriina — the Australian–Finnish human behind the wheel. At Nordic Grey Designs, everything starts with a love of clay, craft, and clean Scandinavian design.

I create small-batch, exclusive collections of jewellery, functional ware, and wall art — each piece made slowly, intentionally, and by my hands.

​

For 25 years I worked as a makeup artist, which basically means I’ve been submerged

in creativity most of my life. If it involves colour, texture, form, or making something

beautiful, I’ve done it.

​

My aesthetic leans toward quiet, confident Scandi simplicity.

My jewellery is non-gendered: clean lines, minimal fuss, timeless shapes for every body.

My ceramics blend mid-century modern functionality with wabi-sabi street-art grit - because yes, elegance and edge can absolutely coexist.

​

Ceramics hit me with one of those instant “oh… this is my thing” moments. Clay lets me explore everything I love — the minimal, the raw, the polished, the textured, the quietly bold.

It’s grounding, meditative, imperfect, and utterly addictive.

​

Nordic Grey Designs is where my Finnish roots, Aussie spirit, and lifelong creativity all meet — in pieces that feel good to wear, use, and live with.

​

Thanks for being here — and for supporting the magical, messy world of handmade.
