About Gary
As a Brisbane-based interior designer, I specialise in crafting functional and beautiful spaces for homes and apartments across Brisbane, the Sunshine Coast, and the Gold Coast.
My approach is all about enhancing your lifestyle with designs that not only look stunning but also feel perfectly suited to you. I take the time to understand your daily routines and personal tastes, ensuring each room is a true reflection of your personality and meets your needs. For me, design is more than just aesthetics; it’s about creating spaces where you feel truly comfortable, at ease, and inspired.
Listening closely to clients is at the core of my work. I strive to balance diverse preferences within a household, creating spaces that are both harmonious and welcoming.
My design philosophy is built on timeless style. I value lasting, personalised designs over fleeting trends, ensuring that your home will remain inviting and fresh for years to come. Above all, I believe in making interior design an enjoyable, accessible journey for everyone.

Selecting the perfect furniture is key to creating a space that is both practical and stylish.

With access to exclusive trade discounts, we offer a diverse selection of quality furniture that suits styles from contemporary to traditional. Additionally, we provide custom furniture solutions for specific needs, including bespoke shelving, entertainment units, and storage pieces. For outdoor areas, we specialise in finding furniture and planters to elevate balconies, decks, and small garden spaces, creating a seamless extension of your home.
Soft furnishings
Soft furnishings add warmth, texture, and individuality to any room. We source a curated mix of fabrics, rugs, and decor items that match your chosen colour palette. Our services include custom window treatments, such as tailored curtains and blinds, adding both elegance and practicality. We focus on setting the right mood with ambient lighting, selecting floor and table lamps that bring each room to life. From unique art pieces to cushions, bed linens, and interior accessories, we help layer each space with personalised touches.
Window treatments
Our custom window treatments are crafted for style and functionality. We work with reliable suppliers to bring you a wide variety of fabric options for custom curtains, blinds, and shutters. Our offerings include roller blinds, venetians, and made-to-measure shutters, all designed to suit your needs. We also offer motorised options for convenient control of indoor coverings and outdoor shades. To enhance outdoor comfort, our selection of blinds and awnings offers privacy and sun protection, ensuring seamless indoor-outdoor flow.
Rugs and artworks
Rugs and artworks are the finishing touches that add depth, character, and a sense of completion to any room. We offer a range of custom rug options and unique artworks that suit your decor and bring cohesion to your space. With exclusive access to trade suppliers, we can source distinctive pieces not widely available. From selecting high-quality prints and original artwork to managing framing and installation, we ensure each piece is beautifully showcased, making your home feel thoughtfully curated and uniquely yours.
Our Collaborative Process
Step 1: Initial Meeting
During our first meeting, we discuss your ideas, scope of work, and budget. This consultation costs $495 (including GST) and includes travel to and from your home and a 2-hour discussion.
Step 2: Detailed Design Planning
We provide a Scope of Services and Fee proposal for larger projects outlining the project details and costs. We then develop a Design Schedule, including space plans, item descriptions, images, and pricing.
Step 3: Concept Presentation and Adjustment
We review the design concepts at your home and make any necessary adjustments to ensure the final design aligns with your vision.
Step 4: Implementation and Finalisation
Once the design is approved, we implement the plan. For decoration projects, we order furniture and coordinate with professionals for custom pieces, window treatments, painting, and more. We collaborate with builders and other trades to complete the refurbishment for design projects.
