The brief was to completely decorate and furnish this 3 bedroom Sydney waterfront apartment in the prestige suburb of Woolloomooloo in a contemporary style. From custom-made rugs to Italian furniture, our client’s apartment is now presented as an elegant and highly sophisticated space, one that takes advantage of the breathtaking harbourside views. 

We have worked with bronze and gold elements in our choice of hardware and furnishings and introduced some soft colours and tones to the palette with accents of black to provide a chic contrast. We worked with our clients to procure art pieces that they loved that blended effortlessly with the design, whilst incorporating treasured family pieces such as the ornate mirror in the hallway. This apartment has many personalised touches. 

Very carefully curated, we selected furniture and artwork that would transform this apartment into an uncluttered, luxurious space. An unwanted, but necessary door to the utility room in the kitchen was carefully disguised using wallpaper, an idea that was very welcomed and solved a problem. We introduced a small corner table seating area, a space to be enjoyed by our clients by themselves, something they hadn’t previously considered. “My favourite thing about working with Marylou was that I completely trusted that I could hand things over and she would come up with the right piece. Additionally, she was very up-front about the way she works, costings etc. There were NO surprises.” – Client

Stephanie Nadel

Assosciate Interior Architect

What makes Stephanie Nadel’s success story so remarkable is that she has come so far, so fast.
Stephanie, the Associate Interior Architect at Marylou Sobel Interior Design, has gained more experience, and handled more responsibilities in the past ten years than many other design professionals take on in their careers.

Stephanie, a multi-talented full service professional, carried out a wide variety of commercial and residential design tasks while she was based in London. She worked for three prominent interior design firms, as well as on her own, and served clients around the world.

In the process, she helped complete within 12 weeks the design and installation of a penthouse suite on The World, the luxury residential yacht that circumnavigates the globe. Prior to this Stephanie lead the full refurbishment of a lavish, Grade II listed, five bedroom home in the Hampstead Garden suburbs in London.

During her five years in London, she worked with Gensler, the world’s largest collaborative design, planning and consulting firm; MoreySmith, a leading design and architecture studio, and Fiona Barratt Interiors, an award-winning luxury design firm.

Assisting with projects for those firms, launching her own residential practice, and interacting with vendors worldwide provided her with project management, creative problem solving, sourcing, technical and other skills that benefit her clients today.

Stephanie earned her Bachelor of Interior Architecture degree at the University of New South Wales.

While she is adept in several aspects of design, she’s particularly interested in the challenge of refurbishing existing spaces. “I enjoy the problem solving that’s involved with existing buildings,” she says. “Although it is always a privilege to design alongside a team to create new and innovative structures, I love creating meaningful design from older properties and taking inspiration from heritage details.”
