Wollongong is a city of contrasts, where the bustling business district meets the laid-back charm of coastal suburbs like Stanwell Park and Austinmer. Each neighbourhood has a distinct personality that is mirrored in its architecture.
I’m Nancy Malekpour-Nisyrios, the founder of Design to Inspire. I believe that expert interior designers should create spaces that are in harmony with their surroundings. I am passionate about crafting spaces that reflect my client’s personalities and lifestyles, while seamlessly blending with the environment.
If you’re looking to transform your space into something that perfectly captures the essence of Wollongong’s unique charm, I’m here to help.
Embracing Wollongong’s Coastal Lifestyle
Wollongong, with its pristine coastline and towering mountains, is a unique and vibrant city. The architecture reflects this natural diversity with sleek modern homes in suburbs like North Wollongong and Thirroul, alongside more traditional homes in areas like Woonona and Corrimal.
Wollongong has a distinct natural beauty that should be taken advantage of. As a local interior stylist, I understand how to ensure that your home maximizes views of the ocean or mountains while drawing in natural light.
Designing for Wollongong’s Unique Environment
Wollongong’s diverse landscapes provide Wollongong interior designers with unique and exciting design opportunities. However, it is important that both architectural style and the coastal climate is considered. Beachside suburbs like Austuinmer and Thirroul require the use of durable materials and fixings that can withstand salt air, and humidity.
I prioritize durable materials that withstand the elements without sacrificing aesthetics or functionality. For example, fabrics and fixtures should be corrosion-resistant, and easy to keep clean. Every detail is considered with longevity in mind, ensuring your home or commercial property keeps its luxurious feel for years to come.
In contrast, properties in elevated areas such as Mount Ousley or Figtree require designs that prioritize insulation and warmth to protect against the cooler winters. My experience in the local area allows me to carefully select materials, colours, and layouts that enhance both the beauty of the property and the functionality required for day-to-day living.
Wollongong interior design often involves maximizing natural light with open designs to take full advantage of the incredible views, while maintaining privacy and comfort. By harmonizing the natural surroundings with thoughtful interior design, I create homes that are not only functional and beautiful but also comfortable and truly lived in.

What an amazing asset Nancy was for us! We couldn’t have done it without her.
Nancy helped us with the interior and externals at PGH bricks and Dons Tiles. We trusted in her process and professionalism, so once she had an idea of our brief and budget we let her do her magic.
