About Us

Design by MiMi

Bespoke โˆ™ Handcrafted โˆ™ Timeless 

Founded in 2025 by Micaela, a qualified interior designer with an eye for detail, and Mitch, a seasoned carpenter with years of hands-on experience. Together, we combine design expertise with skilled craftsmanship to create bespoke wood products that bring both beauty and function into everyday living.

We believe in design with intent. Every piece we make is handcrafted โ€” never mass-produced โ€” and built to stand the test of time. Our work reflects a unique balance where modern aesthetics meet everyday functionality, offering high-quality pieces at fair pricing.

From shelves and plant holders to wall panelling and custom interior projects, our products are designed to declutter, elevate, and transform spaces. Whether itโ€™s a home filled with character or a large-scale development โ€” like our recent renovation of the Ellis Park entrance foyer โ€” we deliver thoughtful, timeless design solutions that set spaces apart.

Our vision is simple: to grow a brand that homeowners, developers, and designers alike recognise for its distinctive look, quality, and care. At Design by MiMi, we donโ€™t just create furniture, we craft pieces that become part of your story, your home, and your everyday life.
