The go-to designer stores for apartment inspiration
Nothing makes you feel like you’ve settled in to your new home at The Green more than sourcing a collection of new furniture and homewares. Your stunning apartment only deserves the best, so we’ve found a great mix of some of the best designer stores not far from King Street to kit out your new pad. Bowen Hills and Fortitude Valley have become the epicentre of design in Brisbane, with top-end design houses and fabric boutiques rubbing shoulders with reproduction furniture stores and large-scale decorating emporiums.
DOMO
For more than three decades, DOMO has remained Australia’s exclusive stockist of Europe’s most prestigious and sought-after European and international furniture brands including Grange, Ligne Roset, Sika Design, Roda, Duresta and de Sede to name a few. Like an investment in your home, an investment in quality signature furniture pieces ensures you can enjoy a lifetime of pleasure from its use and aesthetic appeal. Located in Bowen Hills, DOMO’s Brisbane showroom is worth a visit.
Domayne Furniture
Taking up a large expanse on level one of Homemaker City North is Domayne Furniture, one of Australia’s leading retailers in furniture, bedding and homewares.

Matt Blatt
Matt Blatt opened in Brisbane a few years ago and recently moved premises to Wickham Street to take more space for its gorgeous collection of replica furniture, lighting and homewares. While its renowned for stocking well-recognised replica pieces, it also is home to unique designer objects that are affordable yet well crafted. If you are pressed for time to visit the showroom, you can go online and buy everything in its collection and have it delivered to your doors in a couple of days.

If you’re needing assistance with your abode, the talented designers at Magnolia Interiors are on hand to make your space the perfect sanctuary to retire to every day.
Bed Bath N’ Table
Sometimes it’s not a new piece of furniture that can transform a room, but the finishing touches that adorn it. Bed Bath N’ Table, which just opened on James Street in late August, prides itself on its diverse selection of bedding, bathroom wares, table linen, outdoor items and accessories. Splash some new colour and textures across your home to breathe some new life into your existing treasures.
