who we are

  • NUMI Collective, founded in Melbourne in 2023, designs authentic, innovative interiors by combining decades of expertise with practical operational insight.

    We are two female directors with a 20-year age gap, bringing diverse perspectives and a wealth of experience to the table. Our global presence is powered by a remote team of specialised professionals, enabling us to tackle complex projects with agility.

    With over 35 + years of combined design expertise, we have honed our craft at renowned firms such as Avroko, Bates Smart, EDG Design and Elenberg Fraser. This depth of experience underpins our ability to deliver innovative, high-quality outcomes for hospitality ventures worldwide.

  • We craft narrative-rich, immersive interiors by combining meticulous brand strategy, conceptual storytelling, and world-class F&B expertise. Each project is designed to captivate visually, resonate emotionally, and leave a lasting impression on guests.

    Rooted in a heritage steeped in hospitality traditions, we operate with courtesy, service-mindedness, and an unwavering commitment to curated solutions. By leveraging our product expertise and project management skills, we ensure efficiency, flexibility, and results aligned with your vision and budget.

  • We partner with trailblazers in hospitality—luxury hotels, boutique resorts, and cutting-edge F&B brands—who demand more than just beautiful spaces.

    Our collaborators share our obsession with innovation, storytelling, and creating unforgettable guest experiences. If you’re ready to elevate your brand and set new standards in design, you’re our kind of client.
