What I offer at an in home visit

Louise will visit your home to discuss your brief: scope of works, ideas, plans and budget. She will talk you through the design process and recommend what will work best for your individual project — from colour and material selections to furniture, art and rugs.

Following the visit you will receive a concise follow-up email including:

  • a mood/concept board that captures the proposed direction

  • links to any furniture or finishes discussed

  • a full summary of the consultation and agreed next steps

This follow-up may be all you need. If you require extended services, a quotation can be provided for additional work such as multiple mood boards, full fixtures and fittings schedules, furniture and finishes procurement, and wider project management.

Whether you’re undertaking a full renovation, building new, or simply refreshing a room, my goal is to help you make confident choices that look beautiful and stand up to everyday life.

Design like a Designer Work shop
$220.00

A small-group workshop (8–10 people) in Braeside introducing the simple structure behind great design—so your build flows smoothly and your home feels cohesive, confident and considered. Learn to distinguish materials and finishes, and understand the stages of a renovation or new build.

Join Louise for a midweek evening or Sunday afternoon session where she will:

  • Teach the essentials of colour theory and how to create the mood you want for your home

  • Help you choose finishes suited to your project and lifestyle

  • Show how to plan a realistic budget and develop a schedule your builder will appreciate

  • Guide you through creating a mood board that communicates your vision clearly

  • Share practical industry insider tips to avoid common pitfalls

Louise brings a uniquely practical perspective: she’s married to a builder and together they run his construction company, she’s worked part‑time in a flooring showroom and alongside a cabinetry business, and she has personally built and renovated her own homes. That combination of hands‑on experience and industry knowledge means she understands the challenges you’ll face—and how to make the process less stressful and genuinely enjoyable, with results you’ll be proud of.

Enjoy nibbles and bubbles (or beers) while you learn in a relaxed, hands‑on setting. Perfect for homeowners about to renovate or build, this workshop delivers real insight and actionable steps to make your project feel considered and confident.

Spaces are limited to 8–10 people—secure your spot for a fun, informative evening.

Our

I’m an interior decorator and flooring/cabinetry expert with 10+ years’ experience creating interiors that are both beautiful and livable. I balance form and function through well-proportioned spaces, considered materials and practical detailing.

Early planning and careful selections save time, money and disappointment. For renovations, new builds or room refreshes, layout, finishes and storage determine satisfaction. I guide clients through:

  • Briefing and spatial planning to optimise flow, scale and light

  • Material and finish selection for durable, coordinated floors, cabinetry and surfaces

  • Colour, lighting and fixture choices that shape atmosphere and daily use

  • Detailed specifications to prevent substitutions and delays

  • Practical storage solutions for calm, functional spaces

My collaborative, pragmatic approach combines listening, aesthetic interpretation and technical expertise so designs look intentional and work effortlessly. If you want a considered process and lasting results, I’ll help you plan and select with confidence.

Past Projects

Soft, tonal and timeless — this Aspendale renovation transforms a once-bland house into a quietly captivating home. Natural warm tones are layered against crisp whites to create a restrained palette that feels both fresh and enduring.

The brief was a day-spa atmosphere: soft timber grains, tactile accents and thoughtful textures deliver that calm, restorative quality throughout. Linen-like fabrics, honed stone surfaces and matt-finish joinery invite touch; subtle variation in materiality keeps each space interesting without ever feeling busy.

Details were considered with care. Quality finishes and a carefully curated mix of hardware elevate the everyday, giving rooms a bespoke, lived-in elegance. Fixtures are restrained but purposeful, complementing the palette rather than competing with it.

The result is a home that reads as serene and sophisticated — modern yet timeless, warm yet crisp. Working with these clients was a genuine pleasure; their vision and collaborative spirit helped shape a refined, enduring outcome.

Past Projects

These clients moved from their Mt Eliza family home to a striking beach side apartment and asked me to create a fresh, homely yet stylish scheme—furniture, art and soft décor—that feels relatedly coastal without being beachy. The brief: warmth, refinement and ease.

I used a restrained palette of earthy neutrals, warm tones, and muted greens, layered with textures—Boucle, linen & wool throws . Clean-curved sofa a sculptural coffee table and brass details add sophistication. Artwork—abstract, and soft landscapes in matte frames—suggests horizon and light without literal seaside motifs. Cushions, rugs, ceramics greenery add pattern, tactility and organic warmth. Soft, dimmable sculptural lighting creates an inviting atmosphere day to night.

The result is a cohesive, relaxed yet refined apartment: coastal in spirit, never kitsch. The clients loved it.
