Do you love my AMDC showroom design?

Welcome to Room 38, the Realzar showcase space at the Australian Moulding & Door Company showroom. Here, designers Claire Hall and Likhitha Penmetsa bring together creativity, craftsmanship, and client-first design to transform the potential of every property they touch.

Who We Are

Realzar is more than an interior design and project coordination agency. Based in Melbourne, we live by one purpose: Maximising Property Value. Whether it’s a thoughtful refresh, a bold renovation, a full extension, or a new build, our mission is to unlock the latent potential in your space. We lean on our deep understanding of property market dynamics, well-honed design instincts, and strong relationships with trusted trades to deliver outcomes that perform in style, function, and investment.

Established in 2016, Realzar has helped hundreds of homeowners and investors achieve their property goals through design, planning, coordination and strategic project management. Our team brings together diverse expertise – interior design, styling, renovation, property-market insight – so every project is uniquely tailored and powerfully delivered.

Meet the Designers

Claire Hall

With more than ten years of experience in residential design and new builds, Claire has a passion for marrying form and function. Her style leans contemporary: clean lines, natural lighting, well-considered layouts, and materials that feel both elevated and liveable. Claire believes each home should reflect its inhabitant’s lifestyle, character, and ambitions – and that every design decision should contribute to beauty and purpose.

Likhitha Penmetsa

Warm, energetic, and detail-oriented, Likhitha brings her unique voice to every room. Her work draws from both residential and commercial sectors, with a flair for injecting personality through colour, texture, and thoughtful touches. Efficiency, kindness, and craftsmanship are her hallmarks. Likhitha loves the moments that make a space feel personal: a bold accent, a perfectly placed light, or the interplay of texture in an unexpected detail.

Our Design Philosophy

At Realzar, we do not adhere to a single style. Instead, we begin with you. We listen deeply to understand your brief, your property’s context – its history, its architecture, light, structure – and your aspirations. From there, we craft designs that feel both authentic and current. Classic meets contemporary. Function meets beauty. Every room, every detail is considered.

We love the opportunities provided by AMDC’s product range: the endless customisation possibilities, the quality, and the capacity to adapt to each project’s unique needs. Through this lens, our design solutions truly come alive. 

Why Realzar?

  • Strategic Value Building: Clients choose Realzar because we don’t just design; we plan. We coordinate. We execute. Our approach ensures that every design decision, every finish, every material, contributes not only to how a place looks and feels—but to its market worth.
  • Full-Spectrum Support: From the initial assessment (fresh ideas, cost estimates, timelines) through to styling, furnishing and project handover, Realzar manages the many moving pieces. You’re never left wondering what step comes next.
  • Client-Centred Process: Collaboration, communication, transparency. These aren’t just buzzwords. They are built into how we work: you are part of the journey. We honour your brief – but also bring expert perspective, pushing for innovative solutions that enhance every dollar spent.
  • Aesthetic & Practical Balance: Beauty without liveability is only part of the picture. We believe great design is the intersection of elegance, durability, usability, and comfort. Whether it’s choosing the right custom door, integrating moulding and joinery, maximising light and flow, or optimising space, our designs resolve the big picture and the small details.

Realzar at AMDC – Room 38

When you visit Room 38 in the Bayswater Showroom, you’ll see Realzar’s design sensibilities on full display: sophisticated yet approachable, customisable, layered with texture, and responsive to property context. Here are some highlights to inspire:

  • Bespoke applications of AMDC’s range: mouldings, doors, skirtings fabricated to accentuate character.
  • A balance of neutral tones and statement accents: materials and finishes that harmonise with heritage or contemporary architecture.
  • Layouts that honour light: optimised for natural light, visual connection, flow, and practical circulation.
  • Mixed scale detailing: bold features balanced by refined finishes and thoughtful joinery.

Room 38 is a touchpoint to experience what’s possible. To see how Realzar works in real life. To feel how custom mouldings, doors, and trims can elevate a space, bring in elegance and timelessness, and ultimately enhance both lifestyle and value.

Our Process — How We Work With You

  1. Initial Conversation & Assessment
    We explore your vision, your lifestyle, your property, and your investment ambitions. We also assess the physical space: structure, light, flow, challenges, opportunities.
  2. Concept & Design Proposal
    We respond with ideas – mood boards, plan layouts, surface and material options, initial budget estimates. We collaborate until the concept feels right.
  3. Planning & Coordination
    With the design approved, we manage the details: working with AMDC’s products, selecting finishes, liaising with trades, scheduling, cost control. Our coordination ensures smooth execution.
  4. Implementation & Styling
    As things roll into build/installation, we ensure quality, integrity of the vision, timeliness. When finishes go in, furniture and styling bring soul. We refine until the final reveal.
  5. Handover & Beyond
    Our work doesn’t just stop. We ensure what’s installed works as intended – and if something needs attention, we’re there. Many of our clients also see the value in lighter follow-ups to ensure everything lives beautifully.

Realzar’s Promise

  • Elevated Outcomes: Spaces that look exceptional, feel personal, and function seamlessly.
  • measurable Value: Whether you’re renovating for living or for selling, expect design decisions that positively impact property value.
  • Transparent Collaboration: Clear budgets, timelines, and regular updates. No surprises, just thoughtful design, well executed.
