About us
Sydney interior design studio Katie Uther Design provides a highly personalised bespoke approach ; a service more comprehensive than a decorator and more specialised than an architect.
With the understanding that no two assignments are the same, the response to each commission is an expression of the client’s individuality, personality, living style and preferences.
Informed by open dialogue and exchange Katie sees her role is to interpret her client's wishes, resolving the pragmatics of form and function while creating a seamless integration with the architecture.
Rather than follow the latest trend Katie focuses on designing to create the desired feeling the interior space evokes. Favouring natural materials, the play between textures through selections of materials and lighting Katie aims to combine classic style and proportion expressed with beauty and refinement.
Originally a Sydney-sider, Katie's experience living and working in Paris and London shaped the designer she is today. Working across cultures and countries Katie brings a blend of European style and international experience to the creation of a uniquely Australian sensibility.

My experience in top-end interior design has been wonderfully varied by both country and category.
Before spreading my wings and flying off to Paris, I collaborated on a range of projects from the Crown Casino to the international policy think tank, the Lowy Institute, creating award-winning projects for BatesSmart.
In Paris, working alongside Christian Liaigre for five years, I was enchanted by my experiences with European clients. Exemplary in their appreciation of design and style. Uncompromising in regard to beauty, function and quality. Which is just as it should be.
Residential projects have taken me to the other side of the globe. Creating interiors for an exclusive private residence in Nantucket USA and collaboration with the architect Richard Meier for a beach house in Malibu.
Other invaluable experiences included working with local French artisans on the fabrication of classic furniture designs.
Commercial projects too, offered similar lessons in sophistication, such as designing interiors for the Banque de Rothschild in Paris.
In London, I applied the concept of brand to interiors, designing retail spaces for a number of multinationals. One memorable assignment was designing interiors for the British Museum.
Settled in my Surry Hills studio, my focus is on what I love best: exclusive private residences and holiday homes in the beautiful environs of Sydney, such as Mosman, Potts Point and Palm Beach. Spiced occasionally with a boutique hotel or high-end retail outlet.
