Where hospitality meets design

Hi, I’m Kim.

I’m a Melbourne-based interior designer blending design and hospitality expertise to create spaces that feel considered, welcoming and work beautifully.

I believe hospitality venues are more than places to eat or drink — they’re places people gather, connect and create memories. The best ones draw people in, make them want to stay, and give them a reason to return.

With more than 15 years across hotels, restaurants, bars and cafés, I’ve worked across operations, sales, events and venue management, giving me a practical understanding of how hospitality businesses really function.

My work draws on both interior design and years of hospitality experience, bringing together aesthetics, function and a strong understanding of how venues operate.

That perspective shapes every project — whether it’s a renovation, a concept refresh or small changes that improve how a space looks, feels and flows.

I help venue owners create spaces that engage guests, support operations and strengthen the overall experience their business offers.

When I’m not designing, you’ll find me exploring new venues, noticing the details others miss, and gathering inspiration from the places people naturally want to linger.


My Mission

To create spaces people love, return to and tell others about — while supporting your team and helping your business thrive.


My Approach

Drawing on both interior design and years of hospitality experience, I create spaces where aesthetics, function and guest experience work together. Every decision is made with your venue, your team and your goals in mind, resulting in spaces that engage guests, support staff and strengthen how your venue performs.

Here’s how I make it happen:

  • From mood boards to 3D renders and construction drawings, every design detail reflects your brand and enhances the customer experience.

  • I look beyond aesthetics to how your venue functions, identifying service bottlenecks, flow issues, and inefficiencies.

  • I provide clear, actionable advice, like digital tools to consider, menu or trading hour opportunities, or ways to improve customer flow.

  • I don’t implement systems or marketing myself. Instead, I equip you with insights and direction so you can make confident business decisions.

Great design is an investment.
One that attracts customers and keeps them coming back.
