"Denby has created a truly out-of-the-ordinary space and I now have a home that still elicits a “wow” every time I walk through the door!
I engaged Denby to help me with a complete re-design of my 2brm apartment, after seeing her online portfolio of work, consisting of highly creative designs.
My brief was Mid-Century Modern/Industrial, and as soon as I was presented with her ideas and concepts for my home, I knew I could trust Denby to deliver.
Denby’s vision for colours, materials and textures combined with her strong sense for the quirky and the different lifted my own vision for how the final design might look, to something that far exceeded my wildest expectations. Thanks DD, for creating an amazing home!!”
- Leigh Drake, Bronte
"Upon first meeting Denby we were engaged by her passion & enthusiasm for what she does, creating beautiful and unique interiors.
We loved the way she works with colour & texture to create aesthetically stimulating rooms.
We had no idea that an Art Deco look would suit or tastes or our apartment, which is quite modern, however Denby immediately picked up on this style being the right one to work for us and it has all come together beautifully.
We admire Denby’s design skills and would definitely recommend her."
- Kate & John, East Sydney


"Denby helped us with a major renovation for our new home, it’s almost one year since we started the journey and
we truly appreciate the vision Denby had for our home and family since we first met.
From the well thought out space concepts and additions, the colour combinations, the finishes, the fabrics and furniture, our home has turned out to be far more beautiful than we imagined and the ideas and concepts Denby steered us away from- all make sense now.
Denby has been bold with a lot of her choices and has added character to our home, thank you!
Anshu & Jing, Bondi
"I cannot recommend Denby highly enough, her work ethic is second to none and on top of that she is a very talented and creative Designer.
We have been working on ‘The Impossible House” project, the project seeks to turn an old 2-bedroom workers cottage in the middle of Newtown, Sydney Australia into an off the grid sustainable home.
A friend of mine said they wouldn’t consider living in a sustainable house because they like taking showers! For me to contribute to an attitude shift I need my house to be aesthetically pleasing AND to function like a normal house, and that is why and where Denby comes in.
Together, we are creating an appealing design and a unique designer look and feel, so we may contribute to an attitude shift in society. It’s so important to design and present the house and home as not only sustainable, with low running costs, but also one that is liveable and appealing by today’s standards and we also want this type of build to be accessible for anyone contemplating a build or renovation. Thank you Denby!"
- Laura Ryan, Newtown


"I was in so awed by what Denby had achieved in the home of a friend-of-a-friend, that I hunted her down!
Our brief was for colour and interest in functional spaces, a steep challenge for an unrenovated 1880s Victorian Italianate home.
Denby was sensitive to the heritage, sought to appreciate our sense of style, and collaborated with us, our builder and architect.
Denby’s interior design production drawings and direction enabled us to achieve a time-less interior design to complement our lifestyle."
-Jane & Scott Rudd, Summer Hill
"Denby managed a significant re-model & renovation for us with absolute professionalism, impeccable style, and sensitivity to the needs of our family.
She listened to what we needed and produced a style that matched us perfectly.
Denby has contacts with excellent tradespeople and takes responsibility for and pride in everything she does. She is confident, flexible in her approach, warm and approachable and goes above and beyond for all her clients.
I would recommend Denby most highly for any Interior Design and Project Management contracts."
- Anita George, Bronte.
