ABC Radio National ‘By Design’ – Designing for Children

Yesterday, I had the pleasure of appearing on ABC Radio National’s By Design with presenter Fenella Kernebone. The discussion explored the topic of Designing for Children, focusing on how thoughtful design can shape environments that are both functional and inspiring for young people.

I was joined by stylist Megan Morton and educator Annette Mauer, and together we shared insights on creating spaces that balance creativity, safety, and practicality. From interior layout choices to the role of materials, lighting, and play areas, the conversation highlighted how design can support children’s growth and well-being.

You can listen to the full show here and hear our discussion on designing homes, schools, and community spaces that truly respond to children’s needs.
