Elegant interiors with impact.

Smac Studio is an award-winning firm that has been featured in local and international publications, including Architectural Digest, Elle Decor, Vogue Living, Belle and Domino.

With degrees in Architecture and Interior Architecture, the Smac Studio team has a knack for clever spatial planning. This is an interior design firm that does much more than choose furniture — registered as Class One and Class Two building practitioners, they move walls and reconfigure floor plans to create beautiful flow and function in your home.

Smac Studio’s ideal way to work is from concept to completion. Shona likes to come on board early (often before the Development Application) and work collaboratively with you. However, you can get in touch at any stage of your project. This is a fresh, approachable team who are easy to work with, have their clients at their core and never build the same thing twice.
