Grace Interior Designs was born very soon after I started studying interior design in London as a ‘hobby’. I’ve always had an interest in property, furniture and design but didn’t realise my passion until I was immersed in my studies. At that point I had been working for many years as a corporate fundraiser for various not for profit organisations in Melbourne and London and was looking for a change.
My second life as Interior Designer & Founder of Grace Interior Designs started in September 2013. I was keen to position Grace Interior Designs as a down to earth interior design business, focusing on my belief that design should be accessible, and that everyone deserves to live in a beautiful space.

Which is why I share all my knowlegde through video, a monthly Studio Blog and weekly tips you can subscribe to.
My time in the not for profit sector meant I developed great communication and collaboration skills which ensures my clients get exactly what they want and are truly happy. Through extensive consultation and research we will find the best solution to suit your goals and interior style preferences within your budget.
In 2023 I went on sabbatical for a month to Barcelona and learnt about local interior design and architecture. During this four week period, I explored Modernist architecture, learnt techniques used to make and preserve Spanish tiles, reflect on how our external environment impacts our internal spaces, talked to local architects and interior designers and gained a new appreciation for the value of creativity in interior design.
I am passionate about architecture and design history, European styling and I love writing about interior design, style and architecture. My writing has been featured in a number of publications including Domain, Broadsheet Melbourne, and Hospitality Magazine.
I’m also passionate about philanthropy and have my own charitable fund with the Lord Mayor’s Charitable Foundation. My own fund is called the Basstris Charitable Fund, my aim is to support disadvantaged girls get an education and women experiencing domestic violence.
