What people are saying.

  • "Your contribution was valued and appreciated. I am very grateful for all the effort and care that you took in restoring the old dog to a much more distinguished and professional station! I am very happy. Thank you!!"

    — Chris W, International Quarterback

  • "I contacted Ophelia Sage Design to produce a lighting and electrical plan for an eight unit development I was doing. The attention to detail was great and the documentation produced was done in a timely and professional manner, and had all the information I needed."

    — Carlos C

  • We love how it turned out, thanks again for your help. It would never have turned out like this without you!

    - Belita & Ben

  • "I engaged Ophelia Sage Design for help with my new build, initially to review my floor plan to make sure the spaces flowed and were in proportion for their intended use. Next came help with the selection of finishes and the lighting and electrical plan. It was so helpful to have Janine on board, it took the guesswork out of it all and ensured a cohesive look throughout my home. I’m so happy with the final result."

  • Janine was an absolute lifesaver in our bathroom design process! My husband and I have very different tastes, and without her guidance, we would have struggled to create a space that felt cohesive. She took the time to understand *why* we were drawn to certain styles and seamlessly translated that into tile selections and design choices that brought everything together beautifully. Thanks to Janine, our bathroom not only looks stunning but also feels balanced and harmonious. We couldn’t be happier!

    - Hiedi & Rob

  • When I first walked into my newly renovated house, it truly felt like a brand-new home—warm, welcoming, and beautifully done. We updated everything—the paint, the floors, the light fittings, even the little things like new door handles and fly screens—and it’s made such a difference. Every morning when I come downstairs, it feels bright, cosy, and just right. The colours, the cushions, and all the finishing touches make it such a lovely place to be. Thank you for creating a home I feel so happy living in!

  • "Ophelia Sage Design helped us re-do our front lounge room. Janine came over and took the time to understand what we were wanting to achieve, which included keeping our coffee table that we’d received as a wedding present. She then came up with a couple of moodboard options which helped us decide on what style we wanted to go with. Janine has created a beautiful room that also gives us plenty of storage. I particularly love the addition of the bench seat under the bay window, not only does it highlight the window, but it also doubles as extra storage and a reading nook."

  • Rising Above: The Resilient Redesign of International Quarterback Office. This refit project stands as a learning curve for many. It demonstrates that with the right design choices, like the one made by Janine Bell, a space can not only be rejuvenated post disaster but also future-proof it against potential threats. Both the designer and the client take pride in the result, knowing that beauty and functionality can, indeed, coexist, and sometimes, adversity can pave the path for innovation.
