Interior Design Student | Design Centre Enmore

Withoverfouryears’industryexperienceinanassistantcapacity

I’m a third-year Bachelor of Design (Interior Design) student at Design Centre Enmore with over four years experience working in an assistant capacity across residential and commercial projects.

Raised by designers and the granddaughter of curtain makers, I was immersed in design from a young age — surrounded by fabric, sketches and a deep appreciation for materials and making.

A background in floristry sharpened my eye for colour, form and composition, and continues to inform my approach to interiors.

I create spaces that are functional, expressive and emotionally resonant — celebrating individuality, natural rhythm, and the everyday beauty of lived-in design. Email hello@bycassscully.com Instagram

Welcome to THE KURRA JONG

Brief: A concept-driven, value-led interior design that balances commercial needs with human wellbeing, community impact, and meaningful spatial experience.

Project: Kurrajong Hotel

Location: Erskineville, NSW

Typology: Hospitality

Software: Revit, Enscape, Indesign

Tightknit is a hotel concept woven into the fabric of community, celebrating the meeting point of intersecting paths, grids, curves and rhythm. At its heart is a restaurant inspired by controlled chaos — a nostalgic tribute to the eclecticism of home kitchens. This layered, inclusive space welcomes all, embracing difference to create warmth, connection and a sense of belonging.

inflorescent floral boutique

Brief:

Design a concept-driven functional and profitable retail environment which reflects the philosophy and values of the brand.

Project: Inflorescent Floral Boutique

Location: Surry Hills, NSW

Typology: Retail

Software: Revit, Enscape, Indesign

The concept for the INFLORESCENT Floral Boutque was MICROCOSM is a floral boutique concept that magnifies cell biology into sculptural form. Organic textures—clamshell curves, stone formations— contrast with cool, smooth metals. Floral displays sit like rare specimens in a space where nature meets science. Tactile earth tones, reflective surfaces, and veined light patterns create an immersive world where the micro becomes monumental.

MICROCOSM: Microscopic Forms, Monumental Impact

MICROCOSM reimagines the abstract forms of cell biology on a grand scale. Inspired by magnified organic structures—membranes, vesicles, and branching forms—the space merges tactile, natural elements with smooth, man-made materials. Curved walls and stone-like plinths evoke clams, coral, and mineral formations, while brushed metal surfaces offer a cool counterpoint. Lighting mimics the softness of filtered cellular patterns, casting delicate shadows across displays. A palette of vivid greens, oxidised copper, and pearlescent whites deepens the connection to life forms both familiar and alien. The result is an immersive, sculptural world where nature meets science.

MORETON BAY FIG APART MENTS

Street view of the site on Crown Street, Surry Hills

Project: Moreton Bay Fig Apartments

Location: Surry Hills, NSW

Typology: Multi-residential

Software: Revit, Enscape, Indesign

Brief:

Convert an existing commercial space into a functional, concept- driven mixed use multiresidential environment which complies with all the revelant zoning and statuory regulations. This twin residential project takes cues from the Moreton Bay Fig’s bold structure and soft, filtered light. Serial planar elements evoke its trunk and branching forms, while natural timber finishes echo its palette. The architecture feels grounded and serene—shaped by the rhythms of nature and the interplay of light and line.

Design concept

Project: Moreton Bay Fig Apartments

Location: Surry Hills, NSW

Typology: Multi-residential

Software: Revit, Enscape, Indesign

This twin residential scheme draws inspiration from the commanding presence of the Moreton Bay Fig, a species prolific across the site. The design interprets the tree’s strong linear trunking and expansive, filtering canopy through a series of serial planar elements, creating a sense of rhythm, depth, and shelter. Natural timber finishes echo the fig’s organic palette, while filtered light animates the interiors throughout the day, much like dappled sunlight through layered foliage. The result is a grounded, tactile architecture that feels both monumental and serene—a home shaped by the language of nature’s structure and shade.
