NILUKA AND MARTIN KLEMENT

-

Niluka Klement, previously Mendis, was in born in Sri Lanka and studied at Bishop’s College Colombo. Niluka started her career in the advertisin­g field and then moved on to the hospitalit­y trade when Niluka and her family took over the Bavarian German Restaurant which has been a great success for almost 10 years now. Since the passion for food and pleasing people is so much a part of what Niluka loves, she also helps her brother with their new venture “Off the Hook Seafood Restaurant” which opened one year ago. In between all this, Martins and Niluka met each other, where else but at the Bavarian German Restaurant and fell in love. Martin and Niluka were married shortly in the beautiful and breathtaki­ng Austria surrounded by all their Austrian and Sri Lankan families. Martin soon realised that there was a huge lack and need for high quality interior solutions and interior products that were up to internatio­nal standards, hence the birth of Haecker Kitchens, German Made in August 2013.

This was the start and foundation for Fine Furniture which opened recently. Fine Furniture provides full interior solutions, concept and space planning with the latest technologi­es in software for 3D purpose and works only with the most recognised global brands which are guaranteed to be environmen­tal friendly in their manufactur­ing process.

Over time I think I developed my own style which is more clean, modern and futuristic.

Haecker kitchen was a decision based on the dearth of products (Kitchen) in Sri Lanka . Furniture was always the long term plan and vision, hence Fine Furniture if things worked out and they did !!! on I plan my day with work in the morning and the afternoon at home with the kids.

I think the hard part is that people are still not too familiar with our
