INTERIOR EDITOR · BRISBANE
Your home is holding you in a version of your life you’ve already moved on from.
I fix that.
I use design principles to rework your space, so it works for the life you’re living now.
I’M MEL LEWIS
For over a decade, I’ve been designing and curating collections, styling spaces, and renovating homes.
I’m an interior editor with a trained eye for what elevates a space and what holds it back. I use contrast, texture, lighting, and layout to bring balance and flow. Sometimes that means rearranging what you already have. Sometimes it means finding the right vintage or new piece to pull it all together.
Your home should evolve with the way you live—whether you’re preparing to sell, downsizing to a simpler life, or simply overwhelmed and ready for a reset.
Nature-inspired design. Working with what you have, favouring vintage and reclaimed finds over buying new.
Creating spaces for living, not for show.
My Process
We walk through your space and talk about how you would like your home to feel, and discuss design scope required.
Together we clear what's overstayed. Refining and repositioning what belongs.
I style and balance your space, along with sourcing any pieces needed to bring it all together.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Is this the same as professional organising?
As an interior editor, I work on how a space looks and feels: furniture layout, styling, light, flow, and balance.
What if I’m emotionally attached to things that aren’t working?
That’s completely normal, and we work through it together at your pace. You always have the final say. Often the pieces you’re attached to aren’t the problem at all. It’s placement. The right spot can bring something you love back to life.
How long does a session take?
Most people like to start with a half-day — around four hours. We’ll map out the right scope at your first consultation, and you’re welcome to start with one area and book follow-ups as you go.
Can children and pets stay home?
Absolutely. Real life doesn’t pause, and I work around it. If anything, seeing how your household actually moves through the space helps me understand what’s working and what isn’t.
How far do you travel?
I’m based in Brisbane and happy to travel to surrounding suburbs. If you’re a little further out, just ask, we can make it work.
Do you move furniture yourself?
I can handle most rearranging, but for heavier pieces it helps to have someone available to assist, or I can arrange extra hands for a small additional cost.
What happens to the things I decide to let go?
That’s entirely up to you. I’ll help you make the decisions and can point you toward local options for donating or selling.
Do you charge a markup on pieces you source?
No. You pay what items cost, plus my hourly rate for sourcing time.
How far ahead do I need to book?
I keep my client list small so I can give each home proper attention. Contact me below, and I’ll be in touch the same day with availability.
