IN-TERIA is an interior architecture and design studio based in Hobart, Tasmania.
As our name implies, our focus is on the interior, the space where daily life takes place.
We design enduring spaces for business and life—translating commercial brands into highly functional environments, and crafting deeply personal residential homes across Tasmania.
We are fascinated by the “life within”—the profound way our surroundings shape how we feel, behave, and connect. We work to make built spaces that support, amplify and enhance the workings of the day-to-day, while stimulating the senses and deepening connections with the Tasmanian landscape.
We have a particular interest in projects of reinterpretation, adaptation, and renewal, and our work spans the residential, hospitality, retail, and workplace sectors.
By balancing the poetic with the pragmatic, we aim to create spaces crafted specifically for you.

About
What is a well-made life to you?
Is it a spot in the morning sun for a cup of tea? Perhaps it is a studio that purposefully connects and inspires your team whilst intentionally communicating your brand’s ethos? Or maybe it is a venue that fosters a unique connection between guests, culinary genius, and place, creating a sense of community? Is it the sound of your daughter practising the piano whilst the sea breeze billows the curtain, or the smell of garlic and butter on the stove as you pour a glass of red for your oldest friend in a home that perfectly supports the daily rituals of your family?
We want to craft places for these moments to occur in daily life, be it at home, your place of work, or the business you run.
We understand how the environments we create and occupy can play an important role in our experience of life. They can nurture, shield and uplift us. They are the vessels of the past, present and future. They support us in solitude and connect us to others.
To us, a well-made life is one of purpose; where spaces are rigorously planned, decisions are well-considered, and materials and objects are thoughtfully chosen.
For IN-TERIA design is a verb.
Design is a process that gives rise to new ideas and makes them a reality.
We believe that a building’s success is gauged by the quality of life experienced within it. Our focus is the interior environment.
Our expertise and experience in architecture, interior architecture and design enable us to bridge the gap between structure and atmosphere.
From commercial fit-outs and workplace strategy to structural residential renovations, we manage the complexities of spatial planning, structural reinvention, and custom architectural detailing, right through to material selection, custom joinery design, and the curation and procurement of furniture and lighting.
We act as your agents of change, guiding your project from initial concept through to handover.
