Brilliant Design Concepts take the stress out of creating a beautiful home by offering a complete interior design service from concept to completion.

We not only offer Design and Styling services but are also able to take care of every element of your renovation, thanks to established, long-term relationships with professional builders, subcontractors and suppliers.

That said, with over 20-years’ experience in Interior Design, and a unique, personable approach, our studio’s philosophy is to balance aesthetics with practical design to reflect the personality and values of our clients.

more than JUST AN INTERIOR DESIGN STUDIO

While the design and build process are second nature to our team, we also realise that a renovation is so much more than just beautiful design or perfectly aligned joinery.

Whether you’re looking to overhaul your own home or to bring value to an investment property, a renovation can only be successful if it has that extra something; a feeling that can’t quite be quantified.

Because home is as much an emotion as it is a physical space.

Your home should be unique to you and your lifestyle, from your kitchen to your home office, your wardrobe to your bathroom, and everything in-between.

This is why we create bespoke solutions for your home, designed intentionally for your space and your needs.

ABOUT

Brilliant Design Concepts’ principal designer

Cherel Millist, the founder and principal interior designer started building her design career in 1998, which has grown into a busy interior design studio servicing customers across the Lower North Shore Sydney.

Cherel is an Accredited Designer of the Design Institute of Australia (DIA) and a Certified Kitchen and Bathroom Designer with the Kitchen and Bathroom Design Institute of Australia (KBDI).

With over twenty years of experience Cherel has built a reputation to deliver innovative design that reflect individuality and functionality to establish Brilliant Design Concepts as a lead player in the Design Industry.

Our success is built through collaboration with professional builders, subcontractors and suppliers.

Our goal is simple: create a Tailored Custom Design to align with your aspirations.

Our expertise lies in blending timeless design features, with a modern touch.

Designing interiors is never static – always evolving to suit a sense of who we are and what we aspire to.

Cherel is not your ‘typical’ designer. She didn’t find herself in the world of design by a happy accident, or because of a love for furnishings. Rather, she found her way into Interior Design because of a simple question, “How does that work?”

Like so many of us, Cherel set out to bring some personality to her own space thinking, “well I can do that”, only to discover it was a lot more complicated than she originally thought.

Not one to let a challenge get in her way, she dove into the how’s and why’s of design and construction. Never satisfied to simply let something be done, she determined to truly understand how the building and renovation process worked, every step of the way.

Cherel’s everlasting curiosity, minute attention to detail and love for problem solving means she’s able to beautifully combine her creative understanding of interiors with practical solutions.

And it’s this unique approach that allows Cherel to create spaces that are not just beautiful, but also intuitive, functional and personal.

Cherel is an accredited designer of the Design Institute of Australia (DIA) and a Certified Kitchen and Bathroom Designer with the Kitchen and Bathroom Design Institute of Australia (KBDI).

She also sits on the NSW Committee for the KBDI and acts as a mentor to some of Sydney’s best up & coming designers.

“This is the second time we’ve engaged Brilliant Design Concepts to do some renovations for us. Cherel came up with some great ideas to maximise space in a small apartment and worked hard with her building team to complete the project on time. Nothing was too much trouble for Cherel. She kept us updated regularly and was prompt in responding to our queries and requests.”
