Every home influences the way you live, often in ways you don't notice until something isn't working. At Inspired Spaces, we design from the inside out, creating homes that support your routines, reflect who you are and adapt as life changes. Whether you're renovating, extending or building new, every project begins with understanding how you want to live, not just how you want your home to look.
Renovating and extending your home is exciting, but it can also feel overwhelming. With so many decisions to make, it’s easy to feel unsure about where to start or how to bring it all together. At Inspired Spaces, we provide a structured design process that takes the guesswork out of creating a home that’s not only beautiful, but also functional and tailored to the way you live.
THE INSPIRED SPACES DIFFERENCE
Every home creates a reaction. At Inspired Spaces, we believe great design is about more than aesthetics. The environments we live in influence how we think, feel and function every day. That's why every project is guided by the Inspired Spaces Model — a design framework that helps us create homes that don't just look beautiful, but genuinely support the people who live in them. Regardless of which service you choose, every project begins with the same philosophy. The difference between our services isn't how we design — it's how involved you'd like us to remain throughout your project.
THREE WAYS TO WORK WITH US
We offer three service levels, designed to suit different renovation and design needs —
from clients who just want a professional design pack, to those looking for a complete, full-service experience.
FOUNDATIONS RESIDENTIAL
Create the vision for a home that truly supports the way you live.
Every successful project begins with a clear direction. Foundations is designed for homeowners who want a professionally considered interior design that reflects how they live, move and feel within their home. Whether you're renovating, extending or building new, we'll develop a complete design vision that brings together functionality, aesthetics and wellbeing through the Inspired Spaces Model. You'll leave with the confidence of knowing every key design decision has been thoughtfully considered, giving you a strong foundation to move into implementation with your own builder or project team.
WHAT YOU'LL RECEIVE:
• Design brief
• Concept design & spatial planning
• Material & finish direction
• Foundation design documentation including: floor plans with key dimensions, elevations with key dimensions and design intent, preliminary joinery layouts
BEST SUITED TO
Homeowners who want a professionally designed home and are comfortable managing the implementation with their own builder or project team.
THE OUTCOME
A cohesive design concept and foundational documentation that provides a clear direction for your project.
STUDIO RESIDENTIAL
Resolve every detail before construction begins.
A great design is only as successful as the documentation behind it. Studio is designed for homeowners who want every design decision fully resolved before construction begins. We build on the design developed in Foundations by preparing the detailed documentation your builder needs to accurately price and confidently deliver the project.
WHAT YOU'LL RECEIVE:
Detailed Design Documentation
• Detailed floor plans
• Detailed elevations
• Detailed joinery documentation
• Lighting plan where applicable
• Electrical plan where applicable
Detailed Specifications
• Detailed FF&E Schedule
• Detailed Finishes Specification
Builder Pricing Documentation
• Scope of works
BEST SUITED TO
Homeowners who want a fully resolved, construction-ready design package ready for accurate pricing.
THE OUTCOME
Your design is fully resolved and documented, providing everything required for builders to prepare accurate quotations.
SIGNATURE RESIDENTIAL
Complete design realisation. Remain supported throughout construction.
Construction is where hundreds of decisions are made, and even small changes can have a lasting impact on the finished outcome. Signature is designed for homeowners who want Inspired Spaces to remain actively involved after their builder has been appointed. We continue to provide design guidance, coordinate procurement and work alongside your builder and suppliers to help ensure the original design vision is carried through to completion. Rather than navigating design decisions alone, you'll have an experienced professional providing clarity, advice and continuity throughout the construction process.
WHAT YOU'LL RECEIVE:
WHERE WE WORK
We work with homeowners all over Sydney - from Mosman and the Northern Beaches to the Lower North Shore, Hills District, Blue Mountains, and Eastern Suburbs. Most of our projects are established homes needing renovations or extensions, where getting the flow right matters just as much as the style.
While Sydney is our base, we also take on interstate and regional projects when the fit is right. With today's tools, working remotely is simple — you'll still get the same clear process, detailed documentation, and hands-on support no matter where you're located.
YOUR NEXT STEP
Every project begins with an Initial Design Consultation. This is a two-hour session where we review your space, discuss your goals, and provide verbal advice and indicative costings. The investment is $550, and it’s the first step in all of our residential design projects.
