Meike Abbink, Director of Interior Design

Meike is a Dutch interior designer who brings her experience in Europe to her projects in Australia. She creates spaces that are visually appealing, practical and responsive to each client's needs.

Her design philosophy centres on natural textures and on balance, which she believes brings a sense of harmony to the people who live in a home, and a luxurious experience that goes beyond appearance.

Making Studio is a Sydney architecture and interior design practice built on co-authorship. The work begins with understanding each client's values, needs and lifestyle, so that the home we design truly belongs to them. Our work rests on authenticity, care and integrity, and as a family-run studio we take a strong sense of responsibility and pride in everything we create.

Designed around each client

Every project begins with a close understanding of the client's lifestyle, taste and aspirations, so that the finished home feels like their own.

Architecture and interiors in one studio

With both disciplines under one roof, the design is resolved as one, from the structure to the smallest detail and from inside to outside.

A hands-on, attentive process

As a family-run studio, we work closely with each client, so that they feel heard, supported and engaged at every step.

"Ed was a pleasure to deal with. We found his plans were of a high professional standard and his communication and ease of dealing with was exceptional. Problem solving is always a skill that is needed, and Ed found solutions that were practical and easy to implement. I highly recommend his services to anyone looking for building design and coordination works."
