Elements that shape a beautifully resolved home

The Lewisham Interiors Process

Planning and Conceptualisation

This stage is about discovery and alignment, shaping a design language that feels authentic to you and sets the tone for everything that follows. The first step in any interior design service is understanding your brief and interpreting your lifestyle, aspirations, and vision into a clear design direction. We establish priorities and budgets, creating a framework that ensures the design is practical and inspiring. We explore creative possibilities, considering ideas, interior and exterior colour palettes, materials and textures that capture the mood of your home.

Design Development

As we move into design development, we scope interior detailing, architectural integration, custom joinery and furniture selection. Decisions at this stage make the vision tangible, establishing a home that is technically resolved and visually elevated.

  • Working Drawings: Comprehensive working drawings detail every dimension, material and joinery element with precision. This ensures custom cabinetry and architectural enhancements are accurately executed and aligned with the design intent.
  • Comprehensive Scope and Selections: Outline all interior requirements to establish the overall vision, with colours, fittings, fixtures, finishes, furniture and fabrics coordinated to align seamlessly with the design intent.
  • Specifications: We compile all selections into a specifications schedule that lists products, finishes, colours, and codes, so decorators, trades, suppliers, and clients remain aligned throughout the project.

Trade Work Consulting

Our expertise extends across every stage of interior design and decoration, including new builds, major renovations and room additions. We collaborate with a trusted network of architects, builders and tradespeople, or work alongside your preferred team. By overseeing construction and monitoring progress, we safeguard your design intent and fine-tune details as needed, ensuring a cohesive transition from concept to completion of the highest standard.

 

Our Interior Design Services

Each space within a home has its own purpose and personality, yet it must also connect with the surrounding spaces. Our design process considers the individuality of kitchens, bathrooms, furniture, and furnishings, and how they contribute to the overall flow of the home, creating wow factor and timeless appeal.

Custom Cabinetry

Kitchens and bathrooms are among the most lived-in spaces in a home, so we integrate cabinetry into the architecture with equal focus on both function and design. Our designs balance practical needs such as storage, proportions and finishes with your design vision for kitchens, bathrooms, study book shelving, wardrobes, wine cellars, banquet seating and custom display cabinetry. We work closely with skilled cabinetmakers and tradespeople, using detailed drawings to ensure precision from initial design through to final installation.

Furniture Design

Custom furniture allows us to design pieces that cannot be sourced off the shelf and are central to the vision for an interior. Each item is developed to meet a specific need in terms of scale, function, or aesthetic nuance. Working closely with trusted makers ensures these pieces bring character, elegance and luxury to the interiors we create.

Soft Furnishings and Window Treatments

Soft furnishings and window treatments add texture, warmth and character to a home. Fabric selection is part of a considered process that looks beyond aesthetics to account for durability, maintenance and environmental factors. From curtains, blinds, and wallpapers to bedheads, cushions, and rugs, we select pieces that complement how a home is lived in while maintaining cohesion with the overall design.

Styling and Interior Decoration

Styling and décor are the final layers that give a home its personality. Rugs, mirrors, lighting, art and accessories are curated to bring depth, introduce balance and create focal points. Each piece is selected with intent, whether to reflect light, anchor a room, highlight artwork or add vitality through greenery. Distinctive items are sourced from trusted suppliers and galleries, while treasured heirlooms and personal pieces are thoughtfully integrated to honour family history and add meaning.

Questions we’re often asked about our interior design services

How do you work with architects, builders, and developers?

Every project is a collaboration. We work with your architect, builder or developer, or connect you with our trusted network, to ensure the design intent is clear and carried through. Our Specifications Schedule keeps the entire team aligned from start to finish.

Can an interior designer in Melbourne manage my entire project, from concept design to custom furniture and styling?

Yes. Lewisham Interiors is a one-stop interior design studio, managing everything from initial concepts, renovations and spatial planning to cabinetry, furniture and furnishings. We also take care of the finishing touches such as window treatments, lighting, styling and art.

What is the difference between an interior designer and an interior decorator?

An interior designer is a qualified professional who plans and coordinates all aspects of an interior environment, including spatial planning, materials and finishes, lighting design, joinery and documentation for construction. A decorator focuses on furnishings, fabrics, artwork, accessories and colour schemes to enhance an existing space. At our studio, we provide comprehensive interior design services, working closely with architects, builders and artisans to create interiors that are refined, functional and aligned with how our clients live.

Do you take us around the shops to look at stone, tiles, furniture and furnishings?

We have access to the same manufacturers and suppliers as retail outlets, so there is no need to visit every store. We focus on what the project requires and visit only the showrooms that suit the style, direction and budget. This keeps the selection process clear, efficient and aligned with the design.

What makes Lewisham Interiors different from other interior design firms in Melbourne?

We approach design as an interpretation of your story, and every detail, from custom joinery to art curation, is considered in that context. With more than 30 years of experience, we resolve complex design challenges, prevent costly mistakes and connect clients with exclusive resources.

What level of involvement can I expect to have in the interior design process?

You stay involved in the key decisions while we manage the details. Our approach balances creativity with technical rigour, guiding the process from concept to installation. Clients value that we listen closely, anticipate needs and handle the complexities, creating interiors that are refined, enduring and personal.

Can I see examples of your past work?

Yes, of course. Our portfolio showcases a diverse range of properties, including contemporary apartments, coastal homes, penthouses and development projects.

How long does a typical design project take?

It really depends on the scope. Smaller decorating projects can be completed in a matter of weeks, while larger renovations or custom builds may take several months to complete. At the outset, we’ll outline a clear timeline and stay closely involved to ensure things move smoothly.

Do you work with clients outside of your local area?

Yes. While most of our projects are based in Melbourne, including Hawthorn, Bayside, Canterbury, and Deepdene, we also undertake work further afield. Get in touch with us to discuss your vision.
