Jane Ledger Profile


Designer

Jane Ledger is an interior designer specialising in high-end residential interiors. Based in Perth, she also practises in Melbourne, Sydney and beyond.

Jane came to interior design after a career in the corporate sector – first as a lawyer, then on the management team of a large national law firm. “I enjoyed these roles but had a yearning to live a more creative life, working for myself and creating beautiful spaces for others.”

After studying at the International School of Colour & Design in Sydney, Jane turned a long-held passion into a business, Jane Ledger Interiors.  “I never realised the skills I picked up in my previous life would be useful in my career as a design creative.

But I now know they are a unique part of my offering. Not only am I obsessed by creating beautiful spaces, I’m also obsessed by client service, detail and delivery. So when you engage me, you’re getting two brains – the creative, design-focused, passionate and highly communicative side of me, as well as the meticulous, detail-oriented and organised side”.

Stylist and Imagery

Creating beautiful imagery of interiors is an integral part of Jane’s work.  “I love working with architectural and editorial photographers to capture the homes I’ve worked on (Portfolio), as well as campaigns for others (eg Sealy Australia)”.

Jane’s style is clean and pared back, allowing the shape, texture and materiality of architectural elements blend with beautifully curated interior furnishings.

Jane’s instagram tells the visual story of her interiors and image-making, often featuring her own flatlay photography of client schemes. Jane Ledger on Instagram.
