About Us

Our work is grounded in careful planning, clear communication, and a disciplined approach to design that values longevity over trend.

With every project led by founder and principal designer Danielle Bonello, the studio specialises in high-end residential interiors across renovations, new builds, and extensions. Each project begins with a well-defined brief and is developed through a structured, collaborative process that considers lifestyle, architecture, and function in equal measure.

We place strong emphasis on proportion, materiality, and detail, allowing interiors to feel cohesive, calm, and considered.

We work closely with a trusted network of builders, trades, and suppliers, remaining actively involved from design through to delivery. This hands-on approach ensures consistency, quality, and the faithful execution of the original design intent.

Classic, liveable homes are our specialty, where considered design meets everyday living.

 
 

Founder & Principle Designer

Danielle Bonello

After graduating from Interior Architecture at UNSW in 2001, Danielle became a qualified Interior Designer. She obtained a wealth of knowledge in the industry over 25 years, as a Senior Interior Designer at various leading architectural firms in Sydney before launching Danielle Victoria Design Studio.

Danielle is passionate about her clients. Her focus on practical and warm spaces makes your home a true haven for relaxed family living. She prioritises functionality and comfort, while delivering beautiful and aesthetically-pleasing designs. 

We cannot recommend Danielle and her team highly enough - the experience was positive from our very first phone call to finalisation of our project. Danielle and the DVDS team added significant value to the interior design of our project (so much so that my wife and I continue to talk about how much Danielle’s advice added to the beauty and usability of our home). She saved us from many errors too! Communication was amazing, she was great at managing suppliers and she genuinely cared about making sure we were happy with the design (even if that meant more work for her to present additional options). When we have our next project we will be going back to DVDS.
