A leader in sustainable interior design

Denby Dowling is very clear: sustainability and aesthetic design can coexist seamlessly. Partnering with MODUS Architects and King Building Group, the collective attitude sees a collaborative approach embracing life cycle design, materiality and construction methods for both Residential and Commercial projects. Pragmatic sustainable design is at the fore of DDI projects, with longevity at the heart.

Why sustainable interior design?

For many - sustainability is still a theory. For Denby Dowling Interior Design it’s inherent, and at the heart of every project. The building industry generates over 60% of waste, Denby is focused on a solution. Focusing on sustainable interior design, innovation and social responsibility, she continues to push for progress in industry standards and green certification.

DDI seamlessly integrates sophistication with sustainability to create beautiful, increasingly eco-friendly spaces to honour our social responsibility.

Our collaboration not only results in a beautiful bespoke designer home or space, but it is also sympathetic to the environment and the individual client, and the way each wishes to live.
