Interior Design Studio
Thoughtful, warm interiors designed around how you actually live — timeless materials, considered light, and rooms that quietly do their job beautifully.
Selected Work
A few recent spaces — each shaped by its owners, its light, and the story we wanted the room to tell.
What I Offer
Whether you need a full transformation or a fresh eye on one room, there's a way to work together that fits.
Concept to install — layouts, finishes, furniture, lighting and styling, managed as one seamless project.
Layered textiles, art, objects and finishing touches that turn a finished room into a home with soul.
Smart, functional layouts that make rooms flow — maximising light, storage and the way you move.
A focused session to unlock a space — direction, palettes and a clear plan you can run with yourself.
About the Studio
I started this studio with a simple belief: a home should hold you. For fourteen years I've designed spaces that begin with warmth and function, then layer in materials that only get better with age — natural stone, honest timber, soft linens, and light handled with care.
My work isn't about trends. It's about timeless rooms that feel calm, personal, and entirely yours — places you're glad to come back to.
Work with meHow It Works
Four clear steps, so you always know where we are and what comes next.
We meet, walk the space, and talk through how you live, what you love, and your budget.
I develop the mood, palette and plans — a clear vision you can see and feel before we commit.
Finishes, furniture and lighting are specified and sourced, with every detail signed off together.
We manage delivery, styling and the final reveal — you simply walk into your finished home.
Kind Words
The best part of the work is the moment people first stand in a room and feel at home.
"Mara understood our home better than we did. Every room feels effortless now — warm, calm and completely us."
"She turned an awkward, dark kitchen into the heart of the house. The light, the materials — it's beyond what we imagined."
"Calm, organised and genuinely creative. The process felt easy and the result is a home we never want to leave."
