Merce Walsh, founder and interior designer at Merce Walsh Interiors in Cairns

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.​

What I Do

I help busy professionals and families renovate and furnish their homes with clarity, ease and expert direction.

Whether you are planning a full/partial renovation, new build or furnishing your entire home, I guide the process from start to finish helping you make smart design decisions, avoid overwhelm, and achieve a cohesive result that works for the way you live.

Who I Work With

My clients are typically busy professionals with full calendars and high standards.

They don’t have the time or desire to manage all the moving parts of a major design project. They want a professional who can take the lead, communicate clearly, and deliver an outcome that feels thoughtful, refined and well-resolved.

How the Process Works

Every project begins with a paid Initial Design Consultation. This is a working session where we walk through your space, discuss your goals, and identify what is possible and set the direction. Whether you are renovating your entire home or furnishing from scratch, this is the first step toward a well-executed result, handled professionally, with clarity and confidence.
