Meet Jayne

Hi, I’m Jayne and I love houses.

Here’s my storey.. I mean, story.
(See what I mean?)

New homeowners, organisations and communities come to me for disruptive designs that are equal parts practical, creative and bold.

(Just sayin’)

I believe that –

Clever design will truly impact and improve
your quality of life as well as add value
to one of your most valuable assets – your home.

The Jayne Air Interiors Timeline:

The seeds of my design journey were sewn from very early years and a couple of memories really stand out from childhood… like the time dad renovated our bathroom at our house at Wilston or the retaining wall he built and the strong smell from whatever the timber was treated with… or that brand spanking lime green kitchen mum had installed and the patterns on the curtains.

At our house at the Gap, I made the best of a small bedroom situation … as one of six kids we were all squeezed in (don’t ask how many times I came home from school to find my 4m2 of bedroom space piled high with toys that my little sister had tipped out) so room was scarce, you get the idea . Anyhow the little designer in me had other plans and whilst I didn’t know how to paint walls, I was able to move furniture so I was always pushing huge cupboards and dressers around (without permission of course) to get the most functional layout.

While attending school at Ashgrove, I remember a major renovation of a friend’s home – I was fascinated and loved seeing the changes take place.

(Early Days – Around age 5)

Requesting a dreamy, two-storey doll house for my birthday but instead receiving a very basic 1 storey box with some kind of “open to the elements”, carpeted attic (gable roof) horror story… it was truly tragic & quite devastating at the time (and so you see at such a young age that design really mattered to me – even if I couldn’t grasp why).

(2002 – Laying some solid foundations)

With a young child in tow – studying a Diploma of Interior Design, learning the ins and outs of: Drafting, Freehand perspective drawing, Lighting, History of styles, Colour & colour Psychology, Hard and soft finishes. While working for Amber Tiles as a Colour consultant.

(2007)

Zooming through to 2007, to begin a Diploma of Building Design. Think: Manual drafting, documenting a townhouse development, Warehouse design, Construction site visits, Construction code, CAD (Revit software).

(2008)

Leading onto gainful employment … a Drafting Position with Project Services (Department of Public works Qld) followed by another return to study.

(2015)

Graduating at QUT with Bachelor of Design majoring in Architecture and a minor in Indigenous Knowledges (also with small baby in tow and working for a small residential practice).

Who is Jayne?

Today, when I’m not busily designing (a rare occasion), you’ll find me hanging out with my kids, tending to my vegetable garden, updating a door knob here and a lick of paint there in my own home…

Baking sweets, dreaming of a barge trip to Stradbroke Island and connecting with all the natural settings our country has to offer. Buying plants and stocking up on local produce at the Northey St Markets… and maybe enjoying a glass of vino on the back deck.

All while trying to bring the family together as much as possible and tending to (neverending) mum duties. Oh, and my husband calls me MacGyver because of my impeccable skill for making a meal out of anything put in front of me so there’s that.

As a QBCC licensed Building Designer, I’m qualified to design the building and the aesthetics all in one. From hotels and restaurants, to homes, community centres and more.

(I also know that sometimes the smallest changes, additions or subtractions can make a world of difference)

Proudly a member of the following associations:

I believe in the melodic weave of old meeting new… Of stuffy becoming magically airy – of gloomy transforming into bright and fresh. A new blanketing of vibrancy. Oh, yes. Absolutely, yes.

I come equipped with a toolbelt of friendliness (knowledge too) and an approachable style to inspire your experience. All backed by 15 years in the industry and one helluvan imagination. (And I’m not afraid to get my hands dirty).

Why do I do it? To me, your starry eyes are the real reward. When I present your vision brought to life… that’s why I do what I do. Whether it’s sketching the finishing touches on a cultural display, opening spaces up with airy interior features or creating noise around your new place. You can count on me to polish the finishing touches for you to live in, and love on, for many years to come.
