Hello, I'm Robyn

I’m dedicated to continuous professional development, regularly attending trade shows and industry networking events to stay connected and discover the latest design trends, products, finishes, and ideas.
Although I initially earned a Bachelor of Commerce/Marketing, I was quickly drawn to the creativity of high-end Event Planning. After several years in Sydney and Boston, I pursued postgraduate study and training in the interior design industry.

MEET THE team
Linda
An essential part of our team; Linda transforms concepts and designs into practical and construction-ready 2D plans and elevations. She also creates a 3D model and coloured renders to help our clients visualize the end result. Creating these models helps identify hidden issues before the physical work begins. Linda has a background in architectural, drafting and structural engineering studies. She has practical build experience and her ‘super-power’ is very clever space planning; especially when spaces are tight. Linda also achieved a Diploma in Interior Design and Styling and has several years of Kitchen Design experience.
ArchiCAD is Linda’s software of choice as it allows her to create excellent quality 3D images and when required; an impressive, client walk-through model of each space.
Our clients usually meet Linda with tape measure in hand, at Trade Day. She is efficient, highly skilled with a bright and bubbly personality. Linda loves the beach and dogs and we love having her on our team.
Janet
Janet is our talented Stylist and Assistant Designer. We rely on Janet’s keen eye for detail, aesthetic instincts and constant sourcing to help us transform a renovated space into a ready-to-enjoy, fully furnished home. Born in the UK; Janet developed a passion for fashion and interior design at a young age. Arriving in Australia, she was hired as NSW State Manager for the clothing brand ‘Seed’. This role allowed her to embrace her passion with store styling, visual merchandising and window dressing.
Janet has designed and renovated two gorgeous homes; using her skills to create a warm and welcoming environment that is the envy of friends and family.
Texture and colour are at the forefront of Janet’s design choices. She is able to inject these two elements and visualise the possibilities of any space. Constantly attending trade shows, art exhibitions, scouring the web and social media, Janet is up to date with the latest designs and trends.
