DESIGNING CALM, BEAUTIFUL SPACES THAT REFLECT HOW YOU TRULY LIVE.
MY DESIGN PHILOSOPHY
I believe in creating spaces that feel grounded and timeless. Each design is shaped by thoughtful textures, quality finishes, and choices that balance beauty with everyday living.
THE PROCESS
01 | Understand
Before a home can be designed, it has to be understood. This stage is about slowing down and uncovering the layers of your life, the way mornings unfold, the corners you retreat to, the dreams you’ve been holding onto. By listening deeply, I begin to understand not just the space you live in now, but the life you want to create within it.
02 | Define
A home begins to feel possible once the next steps are clear. This stage is about shaping a clear path forward, where decisions feel lighter and the process starts to make sense. By defining the steps, priorities, and investment, uncertainty gives way to confidence, creating a sense of ease that carries through the entire journey.
03 | Curate
A home feels most beautiful when every detail belongs. What once felt overwhelming, the colours you love, the textures that inspire you, the spaces you dream of, now come together in harmony. Every element is thoughtfully curated, so your home reflects not only your style but the rhythm of your everyday life.
04 | Belong
Belonging is the moment when your home feels like an extension of you. This stage is about guiding the final details with clarity and care, collaborating with trades, smoothing out the details, and making sure nothing is overlooked. What began as an idea now becomes a lived reality: a home that supports your everyday life and inspires your future.
Kind Words from Clients
“My partner and I worked with studio 82 in our most recent renovation. We had no real direction of what we wanted to create in the space. Claire came in and worked some absolute magic with the brief outline we gave her, she styled our whole home from the kitchen sink to bed frames. Claire continues to work with us on random styling questions we have to find the perfect fit!”
Coco - Langwarrin
“Claire did an amazing job making my vision come to life. She made the whole process simple for me and went above and beyond to find all the elements of our feature wall.
Claire is friendly, patient and accommodating. Happy to meet whenever it suited in my busy schedule. Highly recommended using Claire and Studio 82 - Interior Design”
Jessica - Frankston South
“Interior design at your service! Claire was amazing. I had no idea what I wanted, but after an initial walk and talk through my home, she not only put it into words—she brought it to life.
Her thoughtful ideas tied my home together using the pieces I loved, without pushing unnecessary changes or overspending. Claire’s guidance made the whole process feel easy, exciting, and completely personal to me.
Thank you for showing me how one painting could inspire an entire home!
