Studio Kitt was founded in 2007 by Kitt Wichmann, Studio Kitt's principal and creative director. Kitt's background includes training in art, design, and merchandising, and more than a decade developing and designing successful products and product lines for major players in the mass market and specialty retail industries. With experience as both an artist and an art buyer, and expertise that ranges from current market trend forecasting to graphic design and illustration, Kitt's ability to translate art needs into sales goals sets her apart in the industry.
An artist at heart, Kitt combines the rare blend of artistic talent and business acumen that produces results. With years of hands-on experience, Kitt understands all aspects of custom line development, seasonal product lines, surface design, end cap programs, gift market targeting, prototype creation, international manufacturing, mass production, developing brand identity and marketing strategies. Kitt's first-hand knowledge of every process involved from presentations and product line selection to development through production gives her a significant edge as an artist.
Kitt resides in the Minneapolis area with her husband John and their twin daughters, Kari and Ellie. When she's not tracking the latest technology changes and design trends, Kitt enjoys doing creative projects with her girls, biking, traveling and reading.
