INTERIOR EDITOR · BRISBANE
Fall back in love with what you already own
You don’t need a full renovation. You need an edit.
A fresh perspective. A thoughtful rearrangement. The space to let go of what no longer serves you—so your home can breathe again, and so can you..
“I’m not here to change your style or tell you what to love. I’m here to help you see your space with fresh eyes—and finally make it work for the life you’re actually living.”
— Mel
PORTFOLIO
Spaces With Soul
I’M MEL LEWIS
For over a decade, I’ve been designing and curating collections, styling spaces, and renovating homes.
I’m not an organiser—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.
No storage solutions. No label makers. Just a home that feels like you again.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Is this the same as professional organising?
Not quite. I won’t be colour-coding your pantry or installing storage systems. I focus on how your space looks and feels—balancing furniture layout, styling, and flow.
What if I’m emotionally attached to things that aren’t working?
That’s completely normal. I’m not here to make you get rid of anything. We’ll work through it together, and you’ll always have the final say.
How long does a session take?
Clients often find three to five hours is enough mental load. You may like 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. Pop your name on the waitlist and I’ll be in touch the same day with availability.
