A core part of our service is the construction phase - it’s where the vision of your project starts to take shape, but it’s crucial to have your interior designer involved throughout the process.   We work along side and collaborate with the builder, joiner, tiler, stonemason, electrician, plumber, and landscaper to ensure the design intent is executed to the highest possible standard.  What does this mean for you? Not fielding the daily phone calls and site meetings to confirm tile lay direction, tap heights, electrical points, etc.  We answer the questions, make the educated decision and take the overwhelm out of the build process, so you can breathe easy knowing it’s all being taken care of - guaranteeing the final result matches the vision. Every step counts!  Get in touch and we can bring your renovation to life without the stress.

Last week’s supplier visit, surrounded in my favourite material, reclaimed timber @thetablemaker_co Love the finished tones we’ve got to with this oregon by pulling back the peach and adding a hint of dark stain to reignite the older ‘worn’ look (swift 🔚 to see early days of install on site).

Old timbers hold so much history, and I’m passionate about weaving its stories and qualities into my interior designs and renovations. Each piece brings unique textures, warmth, and a sense of timeless character to a space—turning simple details into understated luxuries. Whether it’s a rustic beam, a feature wall, or custom furniture, I love giving this material a second life and creating homes that feel authentic and grounded. Designing sustainably while adding charm? That’s my kind of magic. ✨🌿

If you you’d like to discuss a renovation project you have in mind for 2025, contact me over the next week or so - taking bookings for the coming year.

Fun briefs with flare and hot off the press! We have just placed an order for one of our Clients for this new divine collab range from @cocorepublic and @businessandpleasure_co

As part of a larger brief for an extensive modern art deco country home, these recently launched elegant pieces bring that vintage flare to our Clients’ poolside setting.

They had me with the scalloped umbrella trims and peachy coral tones with elegant contrasting piped finish. Oh, and did you catch lines of the framework, reminiscent of gentle lapping waves on a hot summer night. 🫠

Expecting Leonardo DiCaprio to be free with the delivery! 😜

Enjoy your weekend all, and…
📞 drop me a line or complete our contact form on the website if you’d like to squeeze in a little outdoor, alfresco or poolside refresh before the Christmas and holiday season arrives. 6 weeks to go - there’s still time!🧚

❄️✨ This morning I moved into my “winter office” @thredboalpinehotel where the atmosphere is on point - snow falling, fire glowing, mid-century ski-lodge vibes…

Step back in time to the cozy charm of mid-century ski lodge interiors! 🏔️✨ With their iconic wood-paneled walls, stone or tiled fireplaces, and retro furnishings blending clean straight lines and gentle curves, these spaces blend rustic warmth with sleek elegance.

Imagine sinking into a plush armchair by the fire, surrounded by vintage ski memorabilia and velvet, fur and fringed textures. 🪵🔥 Perfect for après-ski relaxation or a winter getaway, mid-century ski lodges capture the essence of timeless mountain style. 🛋️⛷️

🎯 I’ll be here Mon-Fri from 1st to 20th July - please jump on the website to book an appointment if you’d like to discuss an upcoming renovation or interiors project.

Contrast and texture are vital in interior styling because they add depth, interest, and personality to a space.

As Monique says, "the perfect imperfections are the things made by hand".

Beautifully textured, soulful shelfie style with handmade decor. Paired with a simple pendant in the same natural hues above the ready nook, and it's absolute perfection 👌🏾🤎🥰

It's not just about the bed linen!

A few years ago we added warmth, texture + soul to this bedroom with wall art, cushions and throws 🧡 Always had a weak spot for this view through the vintage bedroom doors @soulofgerringong

Preparation is your key to FUN on photoshoots!

Working on product and lifestyle shoots is an art. You're under the pump to push out anywhere between 5 to 20 scene set-ups, and each of those will have multiple layers of detail in decor and accessories to deliver up to 100-200 individual images from the day.

Add to that you've generally travelled to a location property with a truck of product and support decor - by the time the day starts, you're seeing stars and can't remember your last meal!

Over the last ten years Monique has collaborated with multiple talented and renowned stylists, designers and photographers - each day always memorable for the beautiful final images.....and the laughs and fun along the way. 😉

Time to dry out 🌦
What a week of rain we had in New South Wales!! The boots might still be drying out, but laundries have been in full force this weekend. 🌪🌪🌪
Living with dogs & kids seems to add up to a lot of loads of washing 🐶 🐶 👧🏽🧺💁🏼‍♀️

Looking back on one of our favourite laundry/mudroom renovations where this room went from a dark and damp space under a garage, to a light, bright and airy hideaway! We punched a cute window with a sneaky ocean view down the side of the property, kept joinery simple and traditional, added a few winks to coastal living through hardware and decor, and gave winter laundry days and soggy weekends a pimp with a small underfloor heating system.

Looking back.

At the top of our home, the balcony off the master suite, is the most peaceful space you can find (away from life, work, kids, animals - except the wildlife & birds!) This is my weekend spot to look out and enjoy a coffee at the weekends (for all of 5mins before tornadoes arrive!)
Autumnal colours combined with tropical and tribal patterns from the talented GG design bring the aesthetics of our home together in this space 🍂🌱🍁🍃

What’s in a name?

Monique's approach to relaxed, authentic and beautiful renovations stem from her early life growing up in Malawi (E.Africa), and so too does the business name. Meaning "homes for tomorrow" in local Malawi language Chichewa, the ethos of Nyumba Mawa is in its' name. Monique has a strong belief that buildings (heritage or modern) can be future-proofed through design and build to be enjoyed by future generations.
