Spaces that invite gathering, where warmth meets r

Spaces that invite gathering, where warmth meets refined simplicity.

Creating thoughtful interiors for new builds and renovations across Brisbane and beyond.

How good is this Italian tap… understated, refined

How good is this Italian tap… understated, refined, and just a little bit sexy.

Set within a kitchen grounded in simplicity, it becomes the focal point without trying too hard. Clean lines, a pared-back palette, and thoughtful detailing allow the form of the tapware to truly stand out.

It’s a reminder that you don’t need excess to create impact - just the right elements, beautifully considered.

Sometimes, it’s the simplest moments in a space that feel the most powerful.

If you’re drawn to this kind of quiet, elevated design, I’d love to help bring it into your home.

How do you truly visualise your space coming toget

How do you truly visualise your space coming together?

It begins with a line… a sketch… an idea taking shape.

From there, I refine and resolve each element, translating concepts into highly detailed, to-scale 3D models. Whether I’m working from existing plans or measuring on site, each space is carefully constructed so you can experience it long before it’s built.

With an in-depth understanding of materials and how they are crafted, detailed, and installed, I thoughtfully layer finishes, textures, and forms - ensuring every element feels considered and cohesive.

This process allows you to see how everything comes together, not just aesthetically, but in the way it lives and functions day to day.

From the overall spatial flow to the finer details - right down to the internal layout of your joinery - every millimetre is intentionally designed.

If you’re planning a renovation or new build and want to experience your space before it’s built, I’d love to help bring your vision to life. Give me a call on 0420 358 593.

From sketch… to space.

I’ve been reflecting on moments from my recent hol

I’ve been reflecting on moments from my recent holiday in South America and was drawn back to these character-filled homes in Valparaiso - renowned for their bold colour and expressive street art.

While many of these homes embrace vibrant, high-impact palettes, what I find most inspiring is the confidence behind them - the willingness to create something personal and full of life.

In my own work, I often look at how that same feeling can be interpreted in a more refined and understated way - through curated artworks, a considered pop of colour at an entry, or softly layered, diluted tones across walls and finishes.

It’s less about replicating the intensity, and more about capturing the essence.

How would you bring a sense of character into your own home?

From concept to construction, every detail matters

From concept to construction, every detail matters.

We’re currently in the process of making internal French doors and transom windows for our home.

My husband is crafting them - his joinery skills are incredible, even though he spends his days in the corporate world.

Our home has been a work in progress, slowly coming together one step at a time… and this is where I come in.

I design the spaces - reworking floor plans, creating elevations, and developing detailed 3D renders so every idea is thoughtfully resolved before it’s built, down to every measurement.

If you’re planning a renovation or new build, it’s so valuable to engage a designer early - bringing clarity, direction, and confidence before you begin.

There’s something special about designing a home where scale becomes part of the story.

On the ground floor of this home, there was a large amount of space, so the size of the furnishings was paramount. Each piece needed to feel substantial enough to sit comfortably within the scale of the rooms, while still creating warmth and a sense of intimacy.

Layering textures, soft furnishings and carefully selected pieces throughout the home helped bring balance to the larger spaces, while the natural light moving through each room softened the overall feel and highlighted the beautiful details within the materials.

The twin bedroom was designed with texture in mind at every turn. From the bedside table and wallcoverings through to the soft furnishings, every element was carefully considered to create a calm and inviting space.

I sourced all of the fabrics, with the bedheads and cushions custom made to suit the room perfectly. A mix of soft whites and greens was layered through boucles, French corduroy, linens and textured weaves to bring depth without overwhelming the space.

These final layers are often what make a newly built or renovated home feel complete, bringing warmth, personality and a sense of connection to each space.

Before my annual leave, I designed a new staircase

Before my annual leave, I designed a new staircase for our home, the same thoughtful, detail-driven approach I bring to my client projects, considering position, rise/run, head height and code requirements - and my husband, a true master of detail, is bringing it to life. No end grain in sight on the treads, and all to Australian standards. There’s still a lot more intricate work to go, but it’s shaping up to be something truly special. I can’t wait to unveil the American oak staircase when it’s complete and share the craftsmanship and beautiful grain that make a bespoke design like this so worthwhile.

While on extended leave from MotzDESIGNS, I’ve bee

While on extended leave from MotzDESIGNS, I’ve been wandering the world and finding inspiration in the details that often go unnoticed — like doors.
.
I’ve always been fascinated by doors in every country I’ve travelled to — from North Africa to the Middle East, across Asia, Europe and Scandinavia — and I still find myself photographing them to this day. Entrance doors have a way of making a statement: of permanence, craftsmanship, and quiet power. The weight of them, the repetition of hand-worked panels, and the surrounding architecture speak of an era when buildings were designed to endure, not just exist. Details like this remind me why I slow down, look up, and let cities speak.

I wanted to share some photos I took of the interior of the Buenos Aires Metropolitan Cathedral.
.
The size, scale and architecture were breathtaking — one of the most impressive cathedrals I’ve seen, particularly in the level of detail throughout. The materials are extraordinary, from the stuccoed walls with biblical frescoes, to the Venetian-style mosaic floors, rich with history and craftsmanship. The Rococo gilt wood altarpiece and the intricate ceiling detailing complete the experience.
.
Spaces like this always stay with me. They quietly influence how I think about proportion, materiality and detail — and have already inspired ideas I’m excited to carry through into future client projects.

Happy New Year from Buenos Aires ✨
.
Two dancers, one rhythm — a beautiful reminder that design, like tango, is woven through connection, balance and intention.
.
Here, movement tells a story, just as layers, textures and form do within an interior. Soaking up the soul of this city as I welcome the year ahead.
.
Here’s to spaces that feel as good as they look.

Feliz Año Nuevo,
Melissa, MotzDESIGNS
