our story
where it all started
The Nook opened its (roller) doors back in 2014, initially as a gallery for emerging creatives filling a much-needed gap on the Mornington Peninsula. Now it’s evolved into something much bigger, with private co-working offices for creative business owners, in addition to its large studio space, meeting room and hip courtyard area.
Founders Kristy, Joel and Josh are siblings who grew up on the Mornington Peninsula and all still live locally. Kristy is a graphic designer, Joel is a carpenter, and Josh is also a graphic designer and illustrator.
The original factory was family owned, and together they came up with the vision to transform it into The Nook, a place creatives could come together to work alongside like-minded people. This is something that the Mornington Peninsula lacked at the time which is surprising, as it was teeming with creative talent.
Kristy, Joel and Josh are thrilled with the versatile space they’ve created for visionary brands, passionate entrepreneurs and talented local creatives.
