Meet the Team

Grainne Devlin

Creative Director & Interior Designer | BA (Hons) Dip Int. Design
Founded by Grainne more than a decade ago, the studio has earned a quiet reputation for its collaborative approach to interiors — balancing spatial awareness, functionality and refined form.
Originally from Ireland, Grainne worked throughout Europe before relocating to Australia in 2009. Her practical, honest nature continues to shape the values of Design & Co, a studio known for its approachable, supportive and highly considered design process.
That sense of warmth and collaboration is deeply embedded within the creative team, whose passion lies in delivering spaces that feel both unexpected and deeply personal to each client. Based within a character-filled former wool store in vibrant Teneriffe, the studio reflects the same thoughtful balance of creativity, authenticity and timeless design.

Jocelyn Baxter

Senior Interior Designer | B IntArch
Jocelyn brings more than 18 years of multidisciplinary design experience to the Design & Co team, with a background spanning interior design, photography, textiles and fashion. This diverse creative foundation informs her thoughtful and highly personalised approach to interiors — balancing functional spatial planning with layered details that reflect each client’s personality and create a genuine emotional connection to their home.
Holding a Bachelor of Interior Architecture alongside a Diploma of Interior Design and Decoration, Jocelyn offers extensive technical expertise across kitchen, bathroom and custom joinery design. Her refined eye for detail and practical understanding of how people live allows her to create spaces that feel both effortless and deeply considered.
Her design philosophy centres on understated luxury — spaces that are calm, functional and timeless, elevated through bespoke detailing and carefully curated finishes.
“I love creating interiors that are not only functional, but deeply responsive to the needs of each client. My approach is relaxed yet refined — uncomplicated and restrained, while incorporating bespoke details that elevate the overall design and make it truly unique.”

ABOUT OUR STUDIO

Established in 2015, Design & Co was founded initially to work with cabinet makers and builders who wanted an approachable designer to work with their clients. Our goal was to create an open communication path and assist all parties to simplify the process from start to finish, while delivering a highly considered design outcome.

Design & Co has now grown into a busy Brisbane studio creating designs for both residential and boutique commercial spaces. Each project is specifically dedicated to the client’s own interests, lifestyle and preferences. The team has become known for their functional yet characterised designs across Australia.
