About Us

At Neo Interior Design, we craft timeless interiors that feel as good as they look. Specialising in family dream homes, luxury apartments, cosmetic renovations, and new home colour selections, we bring clarity, cohesion, and a touch of elegance to every project. Our design approach balances beauty with function, ensuring each space feels both effortless and deeply personal.

I’m Lauren Stephenson, Creative Director of Neo Interior Design, based in Perth, Western Australia. Design is in my DNA. Growing up in a family of designers, I developed a natural love for interiors and an intuitive eye for detail.

My career began in the furniture and tiling industry, where I built a strong foundation in product knowledge. After a decade of study and hands-on experience in interior design, I launched Neo Interior Design in 2013.

From the beginning, I recognised a common challenge: many clients struggled to imagine how finishes and colours would come together in their own homes. By guiding them through tailored palettes, curated materials, and clear visualisation, I watched their uncertainty turn into excitement. Seeing the joy in their reactions confirmed what I already knew – this is my passion, and my purpose.
