Chelsea Hing’s work lands somewhere between modernism and classicism, with sophisticated and confident command of colour, scale, symmetry - and surprise. Chelsea is one of the most original interior designers working in Australia today.
With over two decades of professional practice in residential interiors, Chelsea Hing continues to be recognised as one of the go-to designers with a distinctly charismatic style. Celebrated for her fearless eye for colour, her work results in soulful and expressive spaces, full of personality.
Having cut her teeth at internationally renowned firms working with some of the top names in the business, Chelsea brings big practice experience to the table combined with the kind of personal attention to detail needed for working closely with each client. Since launching her eponymous studio in 2007, the highly regarded practice has quietly built a reputation for interiors crafted with a unique character, each thoughtfully tailored to how a client will live, love, entertain and relax in their home.
“We like to think of ourselves as a small studio with a big aesthetic who punch well above our weight. How we make a house feel like ‘home’ is a deeply personal question, different for every client, but the transformative power of design to make a meaningful difference to the quality of our lives remains the same. Crafting beautiful spaces designed for living is one thing, but putting the soul back into a house is a genuine labour of love - it’s where we feel most at home.”
This considered approach has earned the studio a swag of award nominations and a portfolio of richly layered interiors, published both abroad and closer to home in Belle, Vogue Living, House & Garden and Inside Out.
It’s also earned them many a dinner invite from their clients!
We take a relaxed approach to living and will work collaboratively with you to understand how you want to live and feel at home. We aim to craft sophisticated and comfortable spaces that will bring ease to your everyday for many years to come, without changing it again - unless, like a few of our clients, you become addicted to re-doing homes. It happens!
