At Laidback Lee Design, we believe a beautiful interior should also be one you can relax in. Our signature style blends sophisticated refinement with warmth and ease, spaces that look considered without feeling untouchable.

We work closely with every client to understand not just how they want their home to look, but how they want to feel in it. From the first consultation to the final styling, we're with you every step of the way, taking the stress out of the process so you can enjoy the journey.

Whether you're building from scratch, renovating, or simply ready for a refresh, we'd love to help bring your vision to life.

Welcome to LaidbackLee.

Ethos

Our mission is simple: to make great design feel effortless. We bring together considered finishes, soulful styling, and genuine attention to detail — not to show off, but to create spaces our clients love coming home to. Every project is personal, and we treat it that way.

Ten years of beautiful spaces. See the work.

More than just good interiors.

From vision to approval, we make the process feel effortless.

Over the past few years, we’ve guided clients across both residential and commercial projects through the CDC and DA approval process, bringing ambitious ideas to life with considered design and architectural expertise.

Our team of architects and designers work seamlessly from concept through to approvals, ensuring every detail is thoughtfully resolved and every opportunity is maximised.

Because exceptional spaces start long before construction, they start with a vision, and the right team to bring it to life.

About

Laidback Lee Design was founded by Stephanie Ferrara following more than a decade working across interior design, editorial styling, and the homewares industry. With an Honours degree in Design from UNSW Art & Design, Stephanie has built a studio that brings together architecture, interiors and design under one roof, grounded in the belief that the most beautiful spaces are also made to be lived in.

Today, Stephanie leads a team of architects and designers with years of experience across both residential and commercial projects. From full-scale renovations and new builds to hospitality, bespoke joinery, styling and everything in between, our team brings the expertise to take a project from initial concept through to completion.

No matter the scale or brief, we approach every project with the same considered eye, creating spaces that feel layered, refined and distinctly personal. Sophisticated, but never overworked. Beautiful, but always functional. This is our signature laidback approach.

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.
— Andrew Moore and Jesse Matheson
Working with Stephanie Ferrara on our South Coogee interiors and renovation project was an absolute pleasure. Her eye for detail, creative vision, and ability to bring harmony to both design and function truly elevated the entire process. From the very beginning, Stephanie demonstrated an incredible understanding of our aesthetic and goals, translating them into a space that feels both sophisticated and deeply personal.
