We are an award winning, Melbourne based hospitality Interior Design Studio, founded by Clifford Rip in 2017. Clifford brings a rich global design aesthetic based on a strong grounding gained from spending nearly two decades around the globe working with legendary global hospitality giants Wilson Associates and HBA prior to launching Suede Interior Design.

Our boutique studio has a clear and unified understanding of time, detail and quality. Our deep rooted and rich collective background in hospitality design provides the apprehension to carefully curate authentic spaces and experiences around our Clients briefs. We are passionate about design, enthusiastic about beauty and attentive to functionality and our team is constantly focused on realising our Clients visions.

We are continually striving to maintain our long standing relationships with all their Clients, Operators and Suppliers through our personal yet professional, collaborative and creative approach. Our clean and contemporary design methods mean we are always aiming to achieve the best possible design result in the most efficient and cost effective manner, without compromising on the quality of design.

Our passion for the environment has a significant role and effect on our design approach, evident in our material selections and detailing, which fully ensures our projects are both sustainably aware and environmentally conscious.
