Interior Designer Perth

Meet Alana

I’m a fully-qualified Interior Designer and Decorator in Perth, catering for all fields of interior design: Display Homes, Residential, Renovations, Property Styling, PreStart Selections and some Commercial.

Design is my passion and my proposals are tailored to suit clients’ taste while introducing the latest, gorgeous products to make their interiors truly unique and special!

Vintage? Retro? Scandi? Contemporary? Or perhaps a mix of the old and the new? Anything is possible when you’re in capable hands!

With extensive experience fitting out and styling prestigious Display Homes in WA, I believe every home has the potential to look and feel fantastic!

With a professional eye for colour, fabrics / soft furnishings, hard finishes, furniture, artwork, lighting, linen and accessories, I combine all elements of design to create a beautiful and unique result you will absolutely love.

No matter how big or small….. why settle for anything other than your dream?

…the experience was nothing short of exceptional. Their keen eye for detail and impeccable sense of style transformed my space into a masterpiece… The project was executed with professionalism and timely communication, making the process seamless and enjoyable.

Q.Ang

She encouraged me to accept some more radical ideas that she knew would work well, but I didn’t!.. The house suits me perfectly and it feels like an executive home to me every time I open the front door. There isn’t one selection that I would change.

P.Banister

…her passion for detail, clever design ideas, and overall layout placement of items was instrumental in achieving what we wanted in function and mood. The result speaks for itself, a beautiful home where we enjoy every room in the house. She was an absolute pleasure to work with.

R.Palmiero

Alana came highly recommended to our business. …As the vision came to life, we were all in awe… Alana is professional, competent, has amazing attention to detail and has an out of this world positive attitude. She’s an absolute delight to work with.

B.Coffey, TLCU

From start to finish she guided us, providing the most professional and incredible work. I never thought it could be fun to redecorate, but it really was. The result is exactly what we were hoping for: an elegant family style, full of personal references and history.

P.Cavalcanti

She was fantastic at helping us searching for the right furnitures, suitable accessories, art works … often at discounted prices or with sales promotion. We are very happy with the final layout and glad that we did not spent the same money DIY.

A.Truong

I love working with Alana. She is a great listener, is respectful of budget, has a great eye… She has always been professional, enthusiastic, helpful and focussed. On top of all this, she’s an awesome, likeable, funny, intelligent person.

R.Hills
…One thing we really appreciated was the time Alana took to understand us, our lifestyle and what we would work well for us. We are very happy with the end result and highly recommend Alana as a designer with a great mix of flair and practicality.
B.Snell

Her attention to detail to capture the look that we were seeking left nothing to chance and we could not be happier with the end result. Since the change we have had numerous compliments on how our Mandurah office presents.

G.Baxter, Acton Belle - Mandurah

Alana is a lovely mix of a “professional” and a “friend”… I love her energy and, in a way, I’m sad the project is finished. My apartment has been transformed into a warm and lovely home which everyone admires.

D.Hasley

Alana is brilliant. From first meeting to the completion of our kitchen-lounge reno we were impressed by her ability to know what we needed before we even thought of it! Our new space is super functional but also has a personality that reflects us.

R.Hodges

I loved that she… was comfortable to put forward her ideas and guide us in the right direction… She really treated our house like her own.

Frequently Asked Questions to an Interior Designer

Interior Designers guide you in the right direction to transform your premises into a space that is both beautiful and functional.

An interior designer will take into consideration your current furniture and pieces; the style of your home; your needs, wishes and requirements; the interior design style (or styles!) that attract you; your lifestyle, personality and hobbies… then the designer will put together a proposal that combines it all through expert use of colour, spatial awareness, texture, shape, materials and finishes, furniture, lighting, soft furnishings such as linen and window treatments, artwork and accessories…. resulting in a space that is uniquely yours and of which you can be proud.

A professional and experienced interior designer will offer clever solutions for your current issues, introducing ideas you had not thought of and creating dedicated spaces made to suit your requirements resulting in a space that maximises functionality and looks like it’s meant to be. Possessing a good understanding of the elements and principles of great interior design, an interior designer will deliver a cohesive result that effortlessly flows from room to room!

An interior designer does all the time-consuming behind-the-scenes work for you: running around, comparing colours and finishes, designing cabinetry, sourcing quotes and keeping a record of costs, making the whole process a breeze for the client – and even fun!!

Hiring an interior designer also means minimizing room for error, especially with renovations. Renovations without professional and detailed working drawings are a recipe for disaster and cost thousands more than if you get it right from the beginning. An interior designer will also guide you on making selections that are functional and low-maintenance (at the very least point it out to you so you’re making an informed decision) .

Add the fact that interior designers have access to wholesale suppliers who do not sell direct to the public, and there are plenty of reasons to engage an interior designer for your project!

If you’re building or renovating, the earlier the better for engaging an interior designer.

It’s so disheartening to visit a new client’s home and realise there was poor planning involved in their build/renovation and what would have been a small change back then will be a huge exercise now!

An experienced interior designer can foresee issues early on and help you avoid them by, for example, suggesting better locations for plumbing and electrical, more functional cabinetry layout etc.

An interior designer will also be of great value when selecting your tiles, flooring, finishes, hardware and window treatments so the finished result is a home you’ll be really proud of.

If you’re furnishing / redecorating, it’s best to engage an interior designer 5-6 months before you want the room complete.

Furniture lead times have skyrocketed in the last few years, especially in Perth (order-in sofas usually take 3-4 months to be delivered).

However, not everyone can afford to wait months – if you need your key pieces of furniture sooner, suggestions can be made based on whether there is stock on hand.

Communication is key, let your interior designer know your circumstances and they can advise what your options are.

Prepare yourself by getting to know your own interior design style: look up images online (www.houzz.com.au is a great database) and save your favourites to show the interior designer when asked.

Also, have a think about your total budget for your project. An interior designer needs to know what they’re working with upfront, so that they can advise you whether it’s realistic.

I truly believe that great interior design doesn’t need to cost the world — and I’ll never suggest anything with a silly price tag, like a $3000 coffee table (even though some designers might!). That said, I’m also realistic about how much prices have risen in recent years.

If you’re not sure what your budget should be, I can give you a ballpark estimate based on mid-range suppliers that still deliver a stunning result — and for far less than what many others might charge.

I’m cost-conscious by nature and always look for smart ways to keep costs down, while choosing carefully where it’s worth investing a little extra to get the best outcome for you.

Not every interior designer will be a good fit.

Firstly, consider their experience and talent by assessing their portfolio – do you like what you see? Do they seem able to work with various styles, and, if not, are their style a match to yours?

Next, check out their reviews, what do past clients say? Are they easy to work with? Did they meet expectations? Or, even better, did they exceed them? Would those clients use that interior designer again?

Lastly, an initial meeting will help you put a face to the name and get a feel for the designer’s personality to make sure you’ll be happy working with them.

I genuinely love working with all kinds of interior design styles!

It’s incredibly rewarding to build a diverse portfolio and know that every client receives a result that reflects their unique preferences and personality.

No style is too challenging — I’ll make it work for you. That said, I’ll always guide you on whether your favourite style is suitable for your space and share any important considerations along the way.

To me, a great interior designer is someone who tailors their proposals to suit your taste — not the other way around.

Yes, I’m always happy to work in select pieces — some might even become a standout feature! I’ll let you know if keeping certain items could compromise the overall result you’re after, but I’m all for preserving what matters most to you.

At the end of the day, I want you to truly love your home.

Qi Kai Ang

We absolutely cannot speak highly enough of Alana, our incredible interior designer! We initially came across Alana’s work when we had the privilege of seeing the stunning transformation she had achieved in our neighbor’s home. Having recently completed a renovation of our apartment we gave Alana a call.

Alana is professional, efficient, delightful and collaborative to work with. She consulted, shopped and thoughtfully placed all the beautiful finishing touches into our apartment that really make it feel like a warm and inviting home. We feel joy every day in our home and we cannot thank Alana enough for her exceptional work, and we wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone in need of an interior designer. Thank you so much Alana!

We put our faith in Alana to revitalise our 22-year-old house to a modern and warm interior to complement our needs now that the kids have gone.

Alana was given the task to put her stamp on the entire house interior consisting of bespoke joinery and cabinetwork design, wall & floor finishes selections, window treatments, appliances selections and bathroom fixtures & fittings selections. In addition, we engaged Alana to furnish the entire house with new selections of furniture, rugs, artwork, linen and decorative lighting and accessories.

It is fair to say that her passion for detail, clever design ideas, and overall layout placement of items was instrumental in achieving what we wanted in function and mood. The result speaks for itself, a beautiful home where we enjoy every room in the house.
