Portrait of Beatrix Rowe

Principal, Beatrix Rowe Interior Design

Juror

Beatrix Rowe established her Melbourne-based interior design studio in 2004 after working for 10 years with leading architectural and interior design firms. Predominately working in residential design, her studio has also designed retail, hospitality and workplace projects, all with the driving focus of using the power of design to solve problems and find better ways to live, work and connect.

The people who will inhabit her projects remains at the centre of her design thinking, while simultaneously creating spaces that respond to place, function, light and form. The thoughtful curation of materials is a distinct characteristic of her projects and her studio values conscious decision making when specifying products, placing importance on the provenance of selected finishes.

Beatrix also has a product design arm of her practice which is a natural extension of her studio’s work and values, designing custom-made furniture and sculptures, as well as a series of mirrors in collaboration with Grazia and Co that celebrates her passion for Australian design and local manufacturing.
