OUR STORY
If These Walls could talk.
This simple phrase inspired the name of our studio and continues to shape everything we create. Walls hold memories, stories, and experiences — and through pattern and design, we give those stories a voice.
Launched in 2015 by Sara and Mick Hingle, These Walls is a textile design studio based in Burleigh Heads, Queensland. From this coastal hub, we create beautiful wallpapers and fabrics locally, where they are then brought to life in residential, hospitality, and commercial projects across the globe.
The journey began with Sara’s background as an illustrator and designer. Originally from Perth, she spent years working with publications in Australia and abroad before discovering her love for patterns through commissioned briefs. What started as an exploration soon became a passion — and eventually, a studio dedicated to celebrating the artistry of pattern in interiors.
Today, These Walls blends craftsmanship, storytelling, and design to create textile offerings that don’t just decorate spaces, but become part of their story.
