Inside our Byron Bay Atelier: A Space to Create, Connect & Be Inspired

Tucked away in Byron Bay’s buzzing creative district the industrial estate, lies a space designed to do more than just look beautiful - it’s a place to gather, to style, to think, and to bring ideas to life. Welcome to SJS Atelier, our new showroom by SJS Interior Design.

This isn't just another studio space. It's the product of over a decade of design passion, thoughtful curation, and a deep desire to support the creative community in Byron Bay from the inside out.

The Story Behind the Space

Founded in 2014 by Sarah Marriott, SJS Interior Design has grown from a one-woman studio to a design practice with heart, soul, and serious vision. Today, the business is co-led by sisters Sarah and Danielle, whose combined talents bring a distinct blend of creative direction, business thinking, and warmth to everything they do.

After designing hundreds of homes and spaces for clients across Sydney and the Northern Rivers, it felt like the right moment to create one of their own — a space that reflected the SJS design ethos: warm, functional, layered, and full of intention.

A Vision Realised: The SJS Atelier Showroom

Located in Byron Bay’s industrial estate, the SJS Atelier is more than a showroom. It’s a working studio, a content backdrop, a place to host, to collaborate, and to connect.

The 70m² space is filled with natural light and styled with an evolving rotation of furniture, accessories and art from both local and international makers. From sculptural ceramics and custom sofas to handmade rugs and coffee table objects, every detail has been chosen not just for beauty, but for meaning.

“We wanted the space to feel lived in — not staged. A reflection of how real homes work and feel, but elevated with great design”
— Sarah

Who It's For

The space is now available to hire — by the hour, half-day, or full day — for shoots, events, workshops, client presentations, or creative meetings.

It’s ideal for:

  • Photographers & content creators looking for a high-end styled backdrop

  • Interior stylists needing a flexible space to present or play

  • Wellness brands & creatives hosting boutique events

  • Small businesses wanting a professional yet inspiring space for launches, tastings or collaborations

Styling Notes from the Showroom

SJS’s styling approach has always favoured a thoughtful mix — and the showroom reflects this perfectly. Think:

  • A warm neutral base layered with linen, timber, and stone

  • Collected accessories that tell a story — books, ceramics, and textural objects

  • Artwork from local makers, offering a soulful sense of place

  • Zoned spaces that transition naturally from living to dining, without losing intimacy

Each corner is a masterclass in balance — of beauty and function, old and new, curated and lived-in.
