hi, there!
I’m Merce, Founder and Principal Designer at M|W Interiors. Originally from Spain, I’ve been proud to call Cairns home since 2010, where I live with my family.
My passion for interior design began early in life. As a child, I loved sketching floor plans with chalk, dreaming up renovation ideas with my mother, and imagining my perfect home. These early experiences sparked a lifelong enthusiasm for creating spaces that feel personal and meaningful.
Before establishing my design career, I worked as a Financial Advisor for 15 years. Eventually, I stepped away from the corporate world to focus on raising my children, a choice that allowed me to reflect on my true passions. Encouraged by my husband, I decided to pursue my love for interiors, balancing family life with home renovation projects while earning a Diploma in Interior Design. This journey gave me the technical foundation to transform my creative vision into a professional practice.
At Merce Walsh Interiors, I combine creativity and functionality to craft spaces that not only reflect each client’s unique aesthetic but also enhance their lifestyle. My approach is driven by a deep appreciation for thoughtful design and the joy of helping others create homes that are functional, beautiful and fit for real life.​
How We Work
At M|W Interiors, our mission is simple—creating spaces that are both beautiful and functional. Every design we craft is thoughtfully tailored to reflect your unique style, budget, and day to day life needs. We believe great interiors go beyond aesthetics; they should enhance the way you live, bringing comfort, practicality, and timeless appeal.
​
Our process begins with understanding you—your vision, your challenges, and the way you use your space. We work closely with our clients, carefully curating a design that blends their ideas with our expertise to create interiors that feel authentic and effortlessly stylish. With a naturally creative eye and a passion for problem-solving, we love transforming non-functional layouts into seamless, purposeful spaces—whether in an existing home or a new build.
​
Innovation, attention to detail, and a keen sense of balance define our approach. We take the time to explore fresh ideas and bring forward creative solutions that align with your vision. At M|W Interiors, we believe functionality and aesthetics should work hand in hand, ensuring each space we design is not only visually stunning but also practical for everyday life.

A well-designed space that feels good, works beautifully, and reflects you—that’s our goal, every time.
