SERVICES
We assist with renovating, redecorating & all home improvement projects. LifeWorks will make better use of your space & create more time in your life by overhauling your interiors with systems, storage options & uncluttered design to suit you & your lifestyle.
LifeWorks - design, management, advice
Often the decision to renovate seems your only option. Perhaps your family has outgrown the house, or your life circumstances have changed, or you just don’t seem to have enough space to live a peaceful & comfortable life at home. You do have a range of choices & you can improve your household lifestyle – & it needn’t cost a fortune.
Whether you renovate, re-decorate or re-organise is a difficult decision & that’s where LifeWorks can help. We assess your situation with you at whatever stage you’re at, then put together a plan of action for your whole project – whether that’s a brief for your building/design team, a room-by-room décor schedule or a ‘de-clutter & organise’ system for your living spaces or office. We can personally implement the plan for you – organising the whole project so you only ever have to deal with one person – or you can take the plan & work by yourself from there. Whichever way you go, the LifeWorks approach is personalised to you & your lifestyle. Your favorite objects, artwork, furniture, collections or treasured memorabilia can be the starting place for building a design & decor scheme.

Client Feedback
"I would like to thank you for all you have done to help with my renovations. Although I am an organised and capable person, the scope of this work was beyond my experience and I am hugely appreciative of the calm, thorough, flexible and responsive way that you handled this project.
I always felt that we were working together, and that my ideas were the basis of everything we did. They were always improved by your input, in both design and practicality, and I was happy to rely on your judgment in both areas. There were many considerations that I was unaware of in the beginning, and your guidance in these areas helped me make my decisions with all the information I needed. You were also able to provide effective, practical advice and solutions to other household management issues, which was appreciated and will be implemented.
I am thrilled with the outcome of our work. It is even better than I had imagined! I was confident in the skills and experience of your team, and the quality of their work is outstanding. Your management skills ensured a smooth and easy project with a minimum of fuss and disruption. I have no doubt that I would not have been able to manage this on my own, certainly not to the same standard, and that without your assistance I would have not been able to achieve these results.
I would also like to say how much I appreciated your friendly and collaborative manner. It was always a pleasure to work with you! I am very grateful for all that you have done; for the quality of your work; and for the wonderful home you helped me to create. This has been a truly enjoyable experience and I hope that we will be able to work together again in the future."

"I wanted to say a big thank you for yesterday, I feel like a weight has been lifted, I like the very simple nature of the system you have given us and I really do think that it is something we can stick with. This morning I found a receipt on the floor and put it straight into the "To Enter" drawer, what a great feeling to know what to do with it! You are now dubbed my "paperwork angel" and I shall send you happy blessings every time I file anything!! My heart is feeling happy just looking at the baskets on my filing cabinet!"
Emma: Carnegie
"When we did the major renovation we had some exciting big ideas - but I must admit that when it came to the detail I was completely overwhelmed! Marilyn was fantastic at taking us through, step by step - guiding us to think our way into how we could imagine using every space in the house, how different rooms would work and how they would relate to each other. Then she was able to source options for us: it was so much easier for me to look at some images and samples in order to choose between them and then to visualise how it would all look like in life-size 3D! And to top it off, Marilyn also helped us to coordinate all the trade and retail people that were coming and going - again, helping us make our way through lots of details while making sure that our dreams for the house remained paramount. Marilyn is a great listener as well as an excellent suggester - which meant that the final product has been a real synergy of creative and systematic efforts. Her skills were central in achieving a renovation which works really efficiently for us and looks great - thanks Marilyn!"

"Marilyn, I just wanted to say thank you so much for your help. I was feeling like I was drowning in quicksand and always promised myself I would get to figure out a way to tidy up, however sometimes you just need to call a professional. I now feel like the office is a clean beautiful pool and I am sitting on the edge and wading my feet. I feel as though I can breathe. What a wonderful feeling. I now realise that once a system is in place I can work with it. I just don't have the skill to create it, you do! I have done Ruby's room last week with the "training" you gave me so far, and I'm onto Jonah's room tomorrow. I have started my scrapbooking now that everything is almost organised. I feel amazing. You are a star!!!!! Thanks."
Sabina: Caulfield South
"When we moved Mum down from the country to live in a small house near us it was fantastic to have Marilyn help with the transition. She met Mum and quickly got a sense of what she liked, then set up the new place in a really comfortable way. Mum was starting to get a bit forgetful and Marilyn helped make it easier for her to find things. It really helped Mum settle in. My brother and I were busy looking after her emotionally - to have Marilyn making the physical space so nice was terrific. A couple of years later Mum needed to go into a residential care situation. We asked Marilyn to set up her room before she moved. She took all the same care to get it looking and working really well. This has been a great boon to us to have Marilyn's expertise make all Mum's moving go so smoothly. It was a great investment. Really recommend it."
