NICK HARRISON
Co-Founder | N Squared Creative
From building houses to crafting high-end event sets, I’ve always had a hands-on approach to my career.
My journey started at Bexley College, where I completed qualifications in carpentry, joinery, painting, decorating, and bricklaying before expanding into computer sciences at North Kent College. After a few years moving between industries from computer technician to apprentice mechanic I found my footing in construction, working on building sites and later assisting civil engineers at Laing O’Rourke on projects like One Hyde Park.
At the height of the recession, I pivoted into logistics before landing in the set building industry, where I’ve spent the past 15 years starting on the tools and working my way up to construction management. Over the years, I’ve expanded my skill set to include electrical engineering, draughting, design, and high-quality 3D rendering, giving me a unique edge in event and production builds.
Outside of work, I live for scuba diving, holding multiple advanced certifications with a long-term goal of filming a documentary on dive sites and wrecks worldwide. When I’m not in the water, I’m either snowboarding or riding motorbikes, from motocross to super sports, both for competition and fun.
NATHAN EVIDENT
Workshop Manager | Chargehand | Super Set Builder
Nathan launched straight into a carpentry apprenticeship from school, quickly revealing a natural talent for the craft. Over the years, he’s built experience across a wide range of high-stakes projects, earning a reputation as a quick-thinking problem solver who thrives under pressure.
At N Squared Creative, Nathan is the obvious choice to lead the workshop. Fiercely loyal and endlessly reliable, he keeps operations running smoothly and is an invaluable asset to the team, the workshop, and every build he touches.
Outside the workshop, Nathan lives and breathes music.. a passion that often sets the rhythm for the team. Whether leading a complex build or curating the perfect playlist, his skill, energy, and dedication make him truly one of a kind.
NICK 'FRANK' STAPLETON
Co-Founder | N Squared Creative
Frank Stapleton.. yes, Frank, because having two Nicks in the office gets… confusing. He began his career over two decades ago on the workshop floor, doing a bit of everything from carpentry to welding. What started as hands-on craft quickly evolved into a global creative journey painting, building, and installing iconic sets for some of the world’s biggest brands. Along the way, he developed an extraordinary eye for slick, polished finishes and the kind of problem-solving skills that can get him out of or into just about any tricky situation.
A natural-born leader and genuine people person, Frank rose through the ranks to become Workshop Manager before co-founding N Squared Creative with his long-time colleague and friend, Nick Harrison. Equally at home with crew or clients, he combines technical precision with humour, humanity, and a knack for turning challenges into creative wins.
A devoted family man and lover of the outdoors, when he’s not bringing bold ideas to life, you’ll find him outdoors usually hiking somewhere off the grid, recharging for whatever’s next.
MILLIE RALPH
Brand Partnerships Coordinator
With a long-standing career in the creative industry, Millie Ralph thrives at the intersection of creativity and connection. As Brand Partnerships Coordinator at N Squared Creative, she builds genuine relationships between the studio and the brands they collaborate with—turning bold ideas into real-world impact.
Beyond her work with N Squared Creative, Millie is a Sound Therapist and Yoga Nidra Teacher, facilitating soundbaths, restorative rest days, and bespoke retreats for individuals, organisations, and charities. A dedicated mother, nature enthusiast, and lover of off-grid van adventures, she can often be found cycling through London with her instruments in tow—making the city just a little bit calmer, one pedal at a time.
Slick in delivery, but always down-to-earth, Millie believes the best partnerships are built not just on ideas—but on trust, authenticity, and shared ambition.
