ABOUT SOUL INTERIOR DESIGN

Soul Interior Design is a full-service residential design studio specialising in new builds, renovations and the thoughtful transformation of existing homes.

We work with clients who value good design but recognise that bringing an entire home together requires clarity, expertise and careful coordination. The decisions are numerous, the variables complex — and the stakes feel high. Our role is to lead that process with confidence and calm.

From the outset, we take time to understand how you live, what you’re drawn to and what your home needs to support. We define a clear design direction, refine every detail and guide you through each stage — from concept development and spatial planning to selections, documentation and final installation. You can trust that every decision has been considered.

Our experience, technical training and strong relationships with trusted trades and suppliers allow us to deliver beautifully resolved interiors with efficiency and precision. We streamline choices, manage complexity and provide access to exclusive suppliers and trade advantages — ensuring both quality and value are upheld throughout.

Whether the scope is extensive or focused, every project is approached with the same level of care and rigour. The result is a home that feels cohesive, layered and entirely personal — designed not just to look beautiful, but to function effortlessly for the way you live.

ABOUT LUCINDA


Soul Interior Design was founded in 2016 by Lucinda McDonald — an experienced interior designer with a natural eye for detail and a genuine love of creating homes that feel deeply personal and beautifully resolved.

Lucinda’s connection to design began early, growing up around residential builds and renovations and watching spaces evolve from concept to completion. That early exposure gave her an instinctive understanding of both the creative and practical sides of design — how a home should look, but equally how it should function and feel to live in.

After completing a business degree, Lucinda built a career in marketing and finance before formally training in interior design. She studied at the Nanette Cameron School of Design in New Zealand and later at the KLC School of Design in London. This combination of structured design training and business experience allows her to balance creativity with clear process, thoughtful planning and financial awareness.

Clients often describe Lucinda as calm, approachable and quietly confident. She understands that renovating or building can feel overwhelming, and she takes pride in guiding clients step-by-step — bringing clarity to decisions, refining ideas and ensuring every detail is considered. Her role is not just to design, but to support, advise and lead with reassurance.

Lucinda works collaboratively with homeowners, architects and builders to deliver interiors that are layered, timeless and tailored to the way her clients truly live.

At the heart of Soul Interior Design is a simple belief: when thoughtfully designed, a home has the power to nurture, inspire and make everyday life feel easier and more beautiful.
