Meet Elizabeth May

AT A VERY YOUNG AGE, I FELL IN LOVE WITH FABRIC AND TEXTURE WHILST EXPLORING MY NANA’S SEWING ROOM WHICH WAS MY ALADDIN’S CAVE…

From a young age, I found joy in rearranging rooms at friends’ houses, at home, and anywhere I went. I didn’t realise it then, but those early instincts were the first signs of the passion that would shape my career.

I went on to complete an Advanced Diploma in Interior Design at the TAFE Design Centre Enmore and spent 13 years honing my skills with leading design firms in Sydney before launching my own practice in 2013.

Over time, I’ve developed a signature style that is relaxed, organic, and grounded in earthy tones and textures. I love pairing natural materials with clean, refined lines to create spaces that feel warm, layered, and deeply personal.

Sarina Thompson

Elizabeth is exactly what I was looking for in an interior designer! I had ideas of what I wanted, just didn't know where to start. The professional brief from her at the start was exactly what I was after - something other designers didn't even do! Her ability to pull everything together and present options helped us immensely; she does all the hard work for you! I would definitely recommend Elizabeth!

Cindy Cloete

I contacted Elizabeth May to advise me on choices to redecorate and modernise our Gold Coast apartment. I could not be happier. She is a delight to work with, reliable, calm and contactable, and has magnificent taste. I am so happy with the result. I found that we could get a great result with a moderate budget.

Mike & Noisie Pelly

Liz was amazing from start to finish. I find home decorating quite overwhelming, but she presented me with enough ideas to get my creative juices flowing. She stuck to the brief but added her own personal flair to them which really brought the house to life, and worked seamlessly with my builder which was such a relief!

Stefanie Slater

Elizabeth was an absolute pleasure to work with. Creative, attentive to the brief, and professional from start to finish. She has an eye for detail, is adaptive and never short of ideas to address the difficult or challenging aspects of the design. Could not have achieved the overall look and feel of my home without her involvement

Greg Smith

Elizabeth May is such a talented interior designer, I had the pleasure of working with her on our recent house in Tallebudgera. Her eye for detail and texture does not go un noticed in our interiors and soft furnishings. Lizzy is such a delightful lady and always responds promptly! I love all of our furniture choices and could not be happier with how our house has turned out.

Ash Pennel

Designer is the perfect choice. Her exceptional skills and customer service will exceed your expectations and leave you with a space you'll love for years to come. Sarina Thompson I can't recommend Liz enough. We've worked together on two houses across interior architectural design, lighting, spatial design and the full gamut of furnishings. Her patience, decisiveness, and clever eye for colour and texture (and quirks that make the difference), has made working with her the best part of those builds. She has brought immeasurable value to both those projects and she'd be the first person I'd call if I was mad enough to do it all again!

Sarah Munro

Elizabeth worked with me to fit out our hair and beauty salon in Byron Bay. She nailed our relaxed beach vibe with natural materials, clean lines and amazing prints. Elizabeth was involved in every aspect of design, from sourcing items, coming up with innovative solutions to various challenges, designing custom pieces and selecting soft furnishings. From the initial consultation through to completion, her advice was invaluable. We love the end result!
