Tennille Joy Interiors

Tennille is amazing! I had an old Victorian cottage that needed renovation as it had not been updated for many years. I wanted to keep as much of a nod to the original style as possible but also to modernise it and to make the most of the space and smart use of the budget. Tennille’s eye for detail and for the little things was phenomenal. She has a flair for design that combined the modern with the original and spent my budget in a sensible and smart way to maximise impact. She gave me great advice on how to maximise the space in the house including expanding the bathroom, bringing skylights in to get more natural light and designing the kitchen to emphasise space and functionality. Tennille also sourced all the items we needed eg tiles, carpet, curtains etc and that took such a load off my mind! I highly recommend Tennille!

I can’t recommend Tennille Joy Interiors enough. They have an incredible eye for detail that truly transformed my house into something special. Tenille's ability to capture my vision, even when I struggled to articulate it myself was truly remarkable. Throughout the project, Tenille's attention to detail was evident in every decision - from the perfect color palette to the meticulously chosen furniture and thoughtful styling. She has a natural talent for blending aesthetics with practicality, creating spaces that are both beautiful and functional. My favorite room has to be the kitchen! Working with Tennille was a smooth experience. Their organized approach and professional expertise were clear at every stage, yet they remained approachable and open to feedback. The final result surpassed my expectations and has totally changed my standards. I’m definitely planning to use Tennille’s services in the future. The investment was truly worthwhile and I'm so happy with the outcome!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Tennille on redesigning my home, and I can't recommend her highly enough! From our first meeting, she took the time to understand my vision and needs, effortlessly translating them into a warm and inviting space that feels both comfortable and stylish. Tennille has an exceptional eye for color and materials. She suggested a beautiful palette of soft earthy tones—warm beige, muted greens, and subtle terracotta accents—that instantly transformed my living areas into a cozy haven. The materials she recommended, like natural wood finishes and plush fabrics, not only enhanced the aesthetic but also added a tactile warmth that makes every room feel welcoming. Her attention to detail is unmatched. Tennille thoughtfully curated each element, from the selection of statement lighting to the perfect textiles, creating a cohesive look that reflects my personality. The result is a home that truly feels like a sanctuary.

Great collaborator and great designer. Would gladly work with Tennille again.

It’s great working with Tennille on her projects, you know you’ll enjoy the process, especially being there as an electrician from start to finish. The detail and care she gives to her clients through the their Journey, is second to none…looking forward to the next project Tennille! Tom Rainbow Electrical & Security Co.

Tenille has been a Joy to work with a master of her craft!

Thank you, Tennille, for creating our dream home! From the outset, you were warm, helpful and really listened to what we wanted. I am in awe of your ability to furnish an entire house in such a beautiful and cohesive way. Every time I walk through the front door, I think "wow"! We will be happy here for many years.

The best service provider I have ever dealt with. Tennille listened to my requirements and fit in everything in a very tight timeframe. One of my deliveries wasn't going to come on time so Tennille delivered it herself! My budget was also carefully considered and Tennille constantly overdelivered - she is an absolute expert who I would recommend happily.

I loved working with Tennille for my kitchen reno. I just couldn't seem to work out my colours, surfaces and style with any confidence or clarity, and I felt like Tennille was able to get into my head and help me work out what I really wanted. I found her really friendly and approachable and down to earth. When I initially said over the phone ' any old Bunnings tiles will do", she was still polite, but subsequently introduced me to the wonderful world of lovely special tiles and now I am super excited about my gorgeous tiles from Japan for my splashback. I cant wait until it's all finished. I hope I can use Tennille again when I do my bathroom and other parts of the house next year.

Dear Tennille- we forgot to say that the sofa is fabulous- we love it- so comfy and it opens up the space so much. Thanks for this morning, we really hope to catch-up in person to celebrate your work here, making our apartment into a home for us, during a challenging time. It can’t have been easy for you. It means such a lot to us. Thank you ! Jo and Steve xx

Tennille is an amazing Interior Designer. Tribe Home loves working and collaborating with Tennille on her projects. Our rugs are a perfect fit. We love working with Tennille Interiors - a true professional.

Tennille did a fabulous job re-designing my lounge room. She took the time to learn about my taste and made her suggestions accordingly, I really enjoyed our planning sessions together. The room is an unusual shape and for twenty five years I have never known how to place furniture to facilitate traffic flow. Tennille's recommendations changed all this. My family and friends cannot believe the transition. Our room is now cosy, uncluttered and meets our needs. I love it! Thanks Tennille. Hopefully we can work together again.

Tennille has done a magnificent job for us. Whilst being professional Tennille still.made sure there was personal touch given to this job ! The curtains and blinds have been made with a lot of detailing and brilliant craftsmanship. Thanks Tennille!

I have been more than satisfied with the work that TJI has done for us. They have taken all the guess work out of designing & decorating our home. They showed us 3D images, helped with material selections, down to the furniture and styling. The artwork fits my style and was in my budget. Thanks Tennille & team for making our home a place we love to be and am proud of!

Tennille Joy Interiors have provided us with quality blinds and furniture for our new apartment. What I particularly liked was that Tennille was able to take us to the local factories to see first hand where these products are made. We are extremely happy with the final result.

What a wonderful team with amazing talent. Tennille & Rachel have a creative, unique approach to designing. If you’re stuck, confused or need some professionals to do the job properly, then I strongly suggest that you get in contact with this studio.

Amazing! Would not hesitate to recommend Tennille. She has a clear and simple process to ascertain her client's tastes, preferences and budget. All selections (fixtures and finishes) were lovely and in line with the price guidance we gave. She took the time to listen and find alternates, when required and even gave us some design ideas. The best money spent so far - will be back for assistance with furniture selection soon. Thank you Tennille!

Amazing! Would not hesitate to recommend Tennille. She had a clear and simple process to ascertain our preferences and narrow down selections. Loved her style, so went with most of her initial recommendations, but she was open to feedback, listened well and suggested alternates where required. Very organised with great attention to detail- samples were all labelled and bundled together by room, making it so easy. She also gave us some design ideas to think about - best money spent on our project so far!

Tennille did a great job in meeting the requirements in our brief. Everything was delivered in good condition and on time. We would of not been able to source a lot of the furniture ourselves as Tennille knew exactly where to source them. She was a pleasure to deal with and we would highly recommend her to others.

Tennille and her team transformed my place from a small, dark shack into an open air, yet comfortable home. Living near the bay, I have always dreamt of creating a luxurious Hamptons look to make me feel like I’m always on holidays! Tennille nailed her presentation and delivered more with extra design input. I now have a new kitchen, bathroom and built in cabinets with serene colourings throughout. The shutters and sheer curtains have made an unbelievable difference. Tennille even came to the rescue when red wine was split on the new rug! I would highly recommend Tennille Joy Interiors to anyone looking to hire an Interior Designer who really listens to her clients and delivers beyond expectations and more.

Several years ago, Tennille appeared on the radar while styling our old home for sale. The house was styled to such a high, people-pleasing level, that we were sad to leave, yet happy about the house selling at a price above our goal. Tennille has a knack with understanding our needs when it comes to what we want in a home. She offers her professional opinion when we don’t quite ‘get it right’ and steers us in the right direction for choices. We continued Tennille’s consulting services in our new home, not just in colours and finishes, but in cabinetry design, furniture and lighting. During this time, Tennille has impressed us with her empathetic approach to problem solving, an approach which we find extremely rare in the design marketplace of today. Tennille is a designer of considerable skill and integrity. Her team of contractors are polite, respectful and carry out the tasks professionally. Our new home is now more us, thanks to Tennille’s investigative mind. Thanks again, Tennille Joy Interiors.

We are writing a review to acknowledge Tennille’s exceptional work. Initially, we liked how Tennille interviewed us just as much as we questioned her. After an initial consultation, we signed up to re-furbish our house from a 1970’s style to a modern look of today. Tennille was clear from the start on how the interior design process works. We even got to know ourselves better through her in-depth questionnaire! Quite a significant amount of work needed to be carried out, from new flooring, walls to be moved, new kitchen and bathrooms and painting. At the end of every stage, we felt confident that we made the right selections and much to our surprise, my partner and I agreed on most of the ideas presented. We were given honest and professional opinions that made sense both in form and function. I have to say that we are more than ecstatic with all of our selections – seeing everything finished, we can now look back and appreciate how Tennille, along with her team of trades, made the whole experience much easier and stress free than if we attempted the gigantic project ourselves. Thank you team Tennille Joy Interiors and thank you Houzz.

I first met Tennille when I commissioned her to design and project manage (in conjunction with my builder) a renovation of my apartment in Richmond. During this time working with Tennille, I found her to be a creative, conscientious and reliable individual with a warm smile. When the project finished stage 3, three months later, we continued our conversations and I always recommend her work to friends and colleagues. We were on budget, time allowance. I would never have been able to achieve the glamorous and sophisticated aesthetic that Tennille has produced and I am grateful for her services.

Tennille Joy Interiors were recommended by our builder when were first started out planning. We live overseas and in Melbourne, so we needed a professional to put trust to project manager. Tennille consulted in selections of lighting, furniture, rugs, art, cabinetry design, control 4 system motorised blinds and curtains. She has patience and knowledge with good Melbourne contacts. We knew we wanted quality and most Australian made products. We looked at lots of different fabric not from the same supplier. Tennille selected quality different fabric that worked with our colour palet. She designed cabinets for our study, a beautiful bed for our master bedroom, provided wallpaper options and helped with all furniture planning. She understood our sense of Feng Shui with modern style. We are very happy living in our fashionable home. Tennille has been good with follow up service and we would recommend her to our friends. Thanks Tennille. You are a creative and hard worker.

My partner and I engaged in the services of Tennille Joy Interiors in 2014. We have worked closely over this time with Tennille, thanks to a recommendation by a friend. We contacted Tennille as we decided that it would be best to leave it up to the experts so we could save our time and stress levels of running around in circles. We started out having no idea on how to make our new build suit our lifestyle. We needed help on colour, materials and design. Tennille made the process seamless and communicated clearly in all of the stages. With her initial questionnaire, we discovered things about ourselves that we didn’t know! This started the ball rolling in what we wanted and with the help of innovative ideas, we were able to lock in all of the best selections. Tennille selected our external & internal colours and finishes with confidence and flair. We engaged in the design our kitchen, bathroom, ensuite, powder room and laundry. To be able to see the drawings and selection boards gave us clarification on how the design flowed throughout the home. We were able to give these schedules and drawings to the trades for accurate costings, therefore saving time and on the overall budget. During the building process, we entrusted Tennille with proposing furniture, rugs, art and window furnishings. Reason A – Tennille knew our house so well. Reason B – her passion for design resonates, along with her vast product knowledge. Reason C – we can’t make a decision without her! We are so happy that we invested in the services with the team at Tennille Joy Interiors and can’t thank them enough for their talent and hard work. Thanks again, team. We are currently purchasing a holiday home that needs a renovation and it’s a given that Tennille will help us with this project.

Tennille has a great eye, and creates interiors that are well-balanced and elegant. Her use of space, light and textures is wonderful.

Tennille Joy Interiors was engaged as the Interior Design consultant for a high spec project home. The scope comprise of internal and external colour scheme selection, material selection and fittings for the four bedroom dwelling featuring an Ensuite, Bath and Powder room, Kitchen and Butler's pantry. Tennille was very easy to work with and can work within tight timeframes and tight budgets. Her unassuming demeanour masks a very talented & passionate interior designer with a keen eye for detail. Tennille's design skills and her ability to think outside the square allowed for stylish design outcomes to be achieved on this project. On a side note, this project home was recently sold achieving a record price in the area. The consistent and most common feedback from potential buyer was their love for the design and how it all (fixtures, fittings, textures, and colour scheme) worked so well together. Furthermore, the home was selected as a feature article in the Melbourne's Saturday Herald Sun with the focus of the photo-editorial on the trendy style and design aspects of the home.

Securing Tennille Joy Interiors to advise us on fabric and color selections was the best descision we have made on our recent home renovations.Tenille looked closely at color descisions made so far through out our home renovation,and her suggestion were nothing short of fantastic,for all the hard work and expense that had gone into our home up to this point, it was Tenille that made it shine.

It was time to renovate my kitchen and living area of my apartment, but where to start, it all seemed so daunting and time consuming. Friends recommended I use Tennille Joy Interiors to assist me; based on their positive experiences. So I did. Tennille provided suggestions and samples and had her finger on the pulse, in relation to what would work, and what wouldn't. She provided a range of possibilities and made the whole decision making process a breeze. And the end result was an outstanding modern kitchen and a luxurious new lounge area, that has totally transformed my apartment. I even had her input to choose new furniture to update the tired furniture. It was a great investment in my home. I would highly recommend her to anyone considering of renovating or redecorating.

We would like to thank Tennille Joy Interiors for the amazing work they have done in our house, we started out with no furniture, artwork, accessories, curtains or shutters and they have created a space throughout the rooms in our house that we love coming home too! Friends and family always comment on our attention to detail and I thank Tennille Joy Interiors for this. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

Tennille was amazing in helping us clarify our ideas as well as introduce elements that we would never have thought of ourselves. The mammoth but critical task of choosing all the surfaces and colours was made a lot easier by working with concept boards that Tennille put together. We were able to see how the texture and colour selections interacted, and identify where we had the opportunity to be a bit more bold and creative. The tiles we initially thought would be too outrageous are now what gets the most positive comments from our friends! She was able to pinpoint our style and interpret it with the benefit of her knowledge and experience. We just love our new home.

Tenille consulted with us in planning our ensuite bathroom renovation. The new layout she designed is a winner, and something we just hadn't thought of! Moving the vanity unit and toilet onto a different wall really opens the room up, making it feel roomier and more elegant. We were very grateful for Tenille's patient handling of our enquiry, for her ready understanding of our needs, and pleasant way of suggesting solutions. We can recommend her for her expertise and friendly manner, which made us feel comfortable working with her. Thank you Tenille!

Tennille was always punctual and attentive with numerous fabric options and outlets, and a variety of furniture manufacturers and retailers to choose from. She is experienced in all interior design areas and had a good colour sense.
