Hi! I’m Rachel, and I am super passionate about helping small businesses create workspaces that WORK!
I'M A COMMERCIAL INTERIOR DESIGNER
I'm an honours graduate of a Bachelor of Design Degree, and have spent the last 22 years working on Commercial Interiors Projects.
I'M A DESIGN STRATEGY SPECIALIST
I've always loved spending the time, pre-design, to really understand a business and their people.
I'M A BUSINESS OWNER
I spent 12 years running my own design practice, Bubble Interiors, in the Bay of Plenty. And have now re-branded to Bubble Co offering Consulting, Coaching, Courses + Resources to help small businesses create workspaces that work.
I'M A COACH
I'm an ICF Accredited, RTC® + RAPID Results Coach, and am excited to now be able to add these tools to my toolkit to help businesses and their teams get super clear on their vision, and get results!
I’ve worked with over 100 different businesses, across a wide range of industries, and love sharing my learnings and experience to help other small businesses.
I very strongly believe that “Good Design is Good Business!”

TESTIMONIALS:
“Rachel and the Bubble team were the sole reason why we achieved the exceptional space that we still enjoy to this day. The design works perfectly and there is basically nothing we would change which is a massive testament to the design.”
“Rachel knows her stuff!
Her spatial workspace planning sets her apart; and her respect for a budget to work to was appreciated and adhered to. Brilliant. Brilliant. Brilliant and always with a smile.”
“The team at Bubble are fantastic.
We found it so easy working with them, they listened to all our requirements and were able to incorporate them into an area that not only looks amazing, but works extremely well, for both staff and clients.”
“Using proper designers to help with our restaurant was the best thing we could have done. I had ideas of what I wanted but knew I didn’t have the skills to put it together myself. I just knew it was very important to get it right, and with the flair that I wanted. Bubble have done an amazing job and we are really happy with the finished result!”
“Rachel from Bubble did a fantastic job, she very quickly developed an understanding of what we were trying to do and what the brief was. She was actively involved in all areas of the project and was always well-planned, organized, calm and a pleasure to deal with.”
“Bubble Interiors brought us into the 21st Century!
The office looks inviting and dynamic. It even appears spacious despite a tight floor plan.
The team love it… they find it interactive yet there are many spaces to retire to should they require privacy or somewhere free of interruption. We love it!”
“Bubble Interiors were very easy to work with.
The whole process was very smooth and nothing was too much of a problem for them… they just organised and managed the whole process for us.
What we have achieved with the Sir Tristram Lounge is an amazing venue. It’s been transformed into a room that we WANT to use, it’s brilliant.”
