Our journey with Stephanie began when we sought her expertise in transforming our 2010 2-bedroom Redfern apartment into a stunning and unique living space. For nearly a year, Stephanie worked tirelessly on our project, taking our feedback and ideas to heart while consistently offering innovative, clean and creative concepts that exceeded our expectations.

Stephanie's exceptional talent for design became evident in each room of our apartment. In the living room, she brilliantly executed our 'modern and minimal’ concept by balancing light rugs with darker furniture pieces and softening the space with elegant curtains. The crowning touches were the eye-catching pendant light and the striking blue chairs, which together tied the entire space together. She even thoughtfully matched the shape of our mirrors to the coffee table, providing expert advice on offsetting the heights for a visually stunning effect. We would never have been able to bring these elements together ourselves!

In the bathrooms, Stephanie truly outdid herself. She crafted two distinct spaces that were both special and unique. Her choice of fixtures and finishes elevated the rooms, and the niches she recommended have become a standout feature that consistently garners compliments from our guests.
There were also the small touches throughout the apartment that Stephanie assisted with, such as curtains, blinds and artworks. While we didn’t use some of the specific elements, they provided a great foundation for future projects, which is fantastic and exciting to have.

One of Stephanie's most significant contributions was her ability to seamlessly bring the project together. She kept us on track, ensured we stayed within budget, and expertly sourced and collaborated with our contractors. Her involvement in every aspect of the project, including sourcing furniture, not only simplified the process for us but also guaranteed that the end result was a cohesive and beautifully designed home.

Stephanie's unwavering commitment to her clients, combined with her extraordinary creativity and passion for design, made our dream renovation a reality. She was always understanding and considerate of our needs, which was critical for two young, busy professionals renovating for the first time. Every element of our home is beautiful, cohesive, and exudes a luxurious feel. We wholeheartedly recommend Stephanie at Laid Back Lee for anyone seeking to elevate their living space to new heights. Thank you, Stephanie, for going above and beyond in making our Redfern apartment an absolute masterpiece. We couldn’t have done it without you!
