About

Hi there! I’m Nelett, a PASSIONATE creative, mom, wife and absolute lover of a life lived by your own design.

 I live for books and magazines; a bit of leopard print always brings me joy, and I can get lost in the power of creativity and other people's innovation!

ONCE UPON A TIME

I was a graphic designer in an international ad agency, loving what I did but craving more freedom. 

So, in 2010, armed with just a laptop and pay-as-you-go internet, I began KunsHuis right in my mom's dining room. What began as a leap of faith has turned into a labor of love. I adore what I do—especially guiding others to find their unique style and achieve clients' goals through purposeful design.

With KunsHuis, I started crafting my life, one moment at a time.
It's been an incredible journey!

Then, I discovered my true calling—empowering designers to understand their influence and create designs for clients that embody both style and strategy.

Our passions are meant to create  impact. Stand out, be yourself, and make your unique mark—don't just follow the crowd!

I genuinely desire that
YOU design YOUR life –
and I want to help
where I can.

Hi there, I'm Nelett Loubser, a creative entrepreneur from Namibia, passionate about functional design and living life on our terms.

In 2009, I met my husband, and six months later, amidst unconventional timing, we got engaged. That pivotal moment made me realise I didn't want to ask for permission to live my life—I wanted to design it without limitations. So, I started building a client base outside my advertising job.

In 2010, just a month after marrying, I launched KunsHuis, driven by the belief that designers hold immense power. I want every designer to recognise their influence. Without design, brands, products, and campaigns struggle. Designers, you hold the key; you have all the power.

Nice to meet you—let's unleash that power together!

MY REALLY OFFICIAL BIO, the TL:DR VERSION

Nelett is the founder of KunsHuis Graphic Design. She is a lover of excellent functional design. Her aspiration is to inspire other graphic designers to realise their worth and encourage clients to collaborate with designers to deliver elevated work together.
