I couldn't have done it without Mina! Her professionalism and sense of style are second to none. She understood what we wanted and brought it all together effortlessly, on time and on budget. Thank you Mina! I highly recommend Mina's services to anyone looking for an interior designer.

I needed to transform a very boring space into a beautiful film studio. I have no design skills whatsoever and yet I know what I like and don’t like. Mina came over and asked me excellent questions that made me clear about what I wanted. She then asked what I had already. In an hour, we had created the vision for the space using a lot of what I already had, but in a beautifully aesthetic way, I hadn’t thought of. Any fear I had around bringing an interior designer in disappeared. I highly recommend asking Mina to come around, she clarifies your vision and gives you options at a minimal cost. I’m really grateful! Thanks Mina!!

As the owner of Ellis Lane Painting & Decorating, I, Renato De Lucia, have worked professionally with Mina Staples for over 10 years. Mina has always been professional, attentive, proactive and engaging. We both run professional, boutique specialised services and have worked collaboratively to achieve exceptional projects for our clients. I have also engaged Mina’s design services personally. Without fail, she proved to be compassionate, good at listening to our needs, managed our expectations and always kept our best interests at heart. Paired with an enquiring mind, Mina is open, conversational and inquisitive, so each project she creates is unique and beautifully considered. I thoroughly enjoy working with Mina and would happily recommend her services to anyone, no matter the scale of the project.

As founder of The Wood Room I have come across the paths of over 300 interior designers. Working with Mina has been one of the highlights. Her designs and ideas are as beautiful as they are practical. And its very encouraging to see the close relationships that she forms with all of her clients. I couldn't recommend more highly using Mina staples Interiors for your next project, and would be happy to chat further if required.

I would highly recommend Mina's Interior Design Service. Her knowledge and expertise are outstanding and have helped us with many different areas within our renovations. Whilst she has a beautiful design style, practicality and consideration of how we would use the space as a family with a young child were always at the forefront of all of her advice and recommendations. She has shown us ways to have an interior style that is lovely but is also very functional. I will be continuing to use her services as much as possible with any further projects.

Mina is an amazing, creative and considered designer & stylist. She listened to our needs, understood our budget and we worked collaboratively throughout the entire process.

I had a pre-conception that interior designers were expensive and would likely only recommend high-end products, but this was not the case at all. I was incredibly impressed with Mina's broad range of supplier recommendations, with my budget in mind the whole time.

The benefit of working alongside Mina has resulted in my home having a gorgeous, relaxed and unpretentious feel to it and I would highly recommend Mina to anyone wanting a superior design service, with a laid back yet professional approach.

Mina Staples provided a great service, tailored to my specific needs. I required an interior designer’s eye and know-how to revamp a one-bedroom apartment within weeks.

From my initial contact, Mina was professional and friendly, answered my questions thoroughly, showed a good understanding of the project and provided clear information about her services. I felt confident to engage Mina in my project.

After our first site meeting, Mina provided stylish, functional and flexible decorative design options. She assisted with trades, wall colours, door handles, lights, furniture, soft furnishings and whatever else was an immediate priority.

There is much to recommend about Mina Staples Interiors. Mina’s eye for design is exceptional. Her in-depth experience, professionalism and down to earth manner made it a pleasure to work with her. She made a daunting project easy and I have no hesitation in recommending and working with her again.

We didn’t have any reservations – it was just finding a designer who could be sympathetic to our ideas and after seeing our neighbour's apartment we made our choice – and it was a great one.

Mina, you found some wonderful pieces that suited our style which we’re sure we couldn’t have found ourselves and had the confidence to push us — especially the green bedroom which we love!

Also your advice on where and how to achieve a balanced look with the placement of paintings, furniture, mirrors etc. and incorporating our existing furniture.

We’d recommend you to anyone who needed a facelift to their existing home or a new blank canvas. We loved your enthusiasm, creativity, friendliness and ability to visualise the end result. You were very approachable and gave us confidence in your suggestions and the choices we made together.

With very best wishes, and thanks again.

I was sceptical about hiring an interior designer but we were very fortunate to have selected Mina to design the interior of our unit in Bellevue Hill and will definitely be using her again. We thought we knew a lot more than we did.

She gave us a really good understanding of different styles, what works together, what doesn’t and really focussed on designing the place we wanted to live in.

More importantly, Mina worked with our budget and advised where there were opportunities to save money and where you really need invest. Mina sourced fabrics, furniture and suppliers we could never have found on our own.

Perhaps her best service was acting as a middle man between me and my wife, working out trade-offs we would have struggled to agree on by ourselves. We couldn’t have got our place looking nearly as good without her for the same budget and can’t recommend her highly enough.

What a wonderful experience we had with Mina Staples helping us through a myriad of decisions when outfitting our new apartment.

Mina removed the endless doubts we had about size/colour/finish for so many items. The outcome of furniture (indoor and outdoor), rugs, wallpaper, paint, window treatments, artwork placement, beds, bedding, bed heads, mirrors etc is just fantastic.

She listened to our likes and dislikes, gave us wonderful options to look at, and if we needed a broader choice, it was not a problem.

Effortless for us was Mina’s handling of deliveries and logistics – a great bonus.

Also, her tradespeople were of the highest quality.

Mina is a delight to work with – she always had our wants and needs at top of minds. She is a real talent. In the end, we feel it is economical to get a designer of Mina’s calibre to design, select and source decor for us.

After many face to face meetings; visits with her to some fabulous suppliers and always prompt responses to any questions and emails; I can recommend Mina for any interior design work.

Working with Mina on our recent renovation was an absolute dream. From our first meeting, she was able to balance our personal aesthetic, budget and practical needs with her vast experience, her knowledge of current and enduring design trends and her incredible eye for beauty. Her primary concern was making the space as gorgeous as possible while at the same time allowing it to be liveable and welcoming.

Mina guided us through the entire process including communicating directly with a variety of companies on our behalf. Her experience at this point was invaluable as she was able to unify the whole design across a range of different suppliers. The final result is one we are so proud of and the reaction of all those who visit the space speaks for itself. We would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Mina to anyone who values clarity, quality and beauty.
