St Lucia Interior Designer & Decorator

At Gary Hamer Interior Design, we design homes that feel as good as they look — where form meets purpose, and every room is an expression of your lifestyle.

If you’re based in St Lucia, Brisbane, or nearby areas across South-East Queensland, we offer interior design services that are tailored, considered, and deeply personal. Whether you're furnishing a new build, refining a renovation, or refreshing a single room, we help create spaces that truly feel like home.

 

About Gary

I'm Gary, an interior designer who believes good design is rooted in empathy. It’s not just about beautiful finishes — it’s about listening to your needs, understanding how you live, and creating spaces that feel effortless to inhabit.

My style is approachable and refined, with a strong focus on liveability. I aim to balance aesthetics with function, drawing out the character of each home while making everyday life more enjoyable.

Every project begins with a conversation and grows into something uniquely yours.

Tailored Interior Design for St Lucia Homes

From heritage houses to sleek apartments, St Lucia properties offer a wide range of architectural styles — and our interior design services adapt to them all.

Whether you're planning a full home update or want to bring cohesion to your interiors, we’ll work closely with you through each phase of the design process.

Furniture Curation & Layout Planning

Our studio also offers access to an extended network of trade suppliers, allowing you to explore furniture options that aren’t available in retail stores. We can also coordinate custom-built pieces such as shelving, dining tables, or wardrobes to ensure your space is as practical as it is beautiful.

Outdoor living is a key part of the St Lucia lifestyle, and we can guide you in choosing weather-hardy furniture for decks, terraces, and courtyards that seamlessly extend your living zones.

Textiles, Lighting & Decorative Elements

Design is about layering — and textiles, lighting, and finishes play a vital role in setting the tone. We offer tailored advice on fabric choices for upholstery, curtains, cushions, and more, ensuring each element complements the overall design.

As an interior decorator, my goal is to bring together comfort, functionality, and personality. Styling isn't just about finishing touches — it's about making a space feel alive and reflective of who you are.

Custom Window Furnishings

We work closely with reliable Brisbane-based manufacturers to deliver bespoke window treatments that suit your space and lifestyle. Whether you're after soft linen drapes, dual-layer blinds, or automated systems, we’ll guide you through your options.

For homes in St Lucia that prioritise indoor-outdoor flow, we also offer coordination of exterior window solutions and awnings that enhance shading, comfort, and continuity.

Art, Rugs & Personal Touches

Finishing a space is just as important as starting it. We help you source artwork that aligns with your taste — whether that means supporting local Brisbane artists or commissioning something custom.

Area rugs, sculptural pieces, mirrors, and accessories are all part of the broader composition, and we offer styling support to ensure each item finds its rightful place. These subtle layers are what turn a room into a reflection of you.

Complete Interior Furnishing with Trade-Only Savings

Our Furnish Your Home package is perfect for those looking to professionally outfit a home without navigating endless furniture showrooms or inflated prices.

We manage the entire sourcing process — selecting, purchasing, and coordinating items from trusted suppliers. Thanks to trade-exclusive rates, you’ll enjoy significant savings while accessing premium pieces. This makes interior furnishing both more accessible and more personalised.

Whether you're furnishing a new property, downsizing, or relocating, we can streamline your transition into a fully designed, move-in-ready home.

Our Process

Interior design should feel inspiring, not overwhelming. Our method is structured yet flexible — designed to keep you informed and involved every step of the way.

Step 1: Initial Home Consultation

We begin with an onsite visit in St Lucia to understand your space, lifestyle, and needs. This initial consultation is priced at $495 (including GST) and includes a two-hour design session plus travel.

Step 2: Scope of Services & Proposal

For larger or more complex projects, we’ll provide a detailed proposal outlining the scope of work, deliverables, timeline, and fixed fees.

Step 3: Design Development

We return to your home with design concepts, layouts, material samples, and suggested products. You’ll be able to provide feedback and explore alternatives before any final decisions are made.

Step 4: Execution & Styling

Once approved, we manage procurement, deliveries, and installation. From furnishing to final touches, we’ll help bring the vision to life — down to the placement of your last artwork.
