I grew up in Sydney, then moved to London to pursue my career and stayed for fourteen years. I studied at Central Saint Martins, completing a postgraduate qualification and an MA with High Distinction. That training in composition, colour and visual storytelling still shapes the way I look at every room.
Living and working across Europe and in Dubai, as well as in several parts of Australia, taught me how much place, light and culture influence the way people want to live. In 2008 I settled in Brisbane, and it has been home ever since.
Today I work with homeowners and property owners across Brisbane, from inner-city apartments and executive residences to Queenslander renovations and established family homes. Some clients ask me to lead a complete design and fit-out; others simply want a trusted second opinion on a project already underway. Either way, I see the work as a collaboration, and it is the part I enjoy most. I listen closely, offer ideas you may not have considered, and design around how you actually live, so the result feels unmistakably yours.
Over the years I have built close relationships with skilled trades and suppliers I trust completely. That lets me guide a project calmly from the first concept to the final cushion, and it is a big part of why so many clients come back to me for a second or third project.
I'm proud that Dani Louis Design holds a 4.9-star rating from 66 reviews on Houzz and has received 12 Houzz awards. I'm based in Brisbane, with projects further afield by arrangement, and I would love to hear about yours.
