Gemma Gillett - Studio Gemma + The Joinery Edit

Today on the podcast, I speak with Gemma Gillett — interior architect, founder of Studio Gemma, and creator of The Joinery Edit, an online education platform bridging the gap between designers and joiners.

After graduating from Massey University, Gemma spent nine years forging her career in London - working for several highly regarded interior design studios including Godrich Interiors. In 2014 Gemma relocated to Sydney and after the birth of her second son, she launched her solo venture, Studio Gemma, her own design practice specialising in interiors that are as functional as they are beautiful.

But Gemma’s passion for design extends beyond her own projects. The Joinery Edit started as a side project—an Instagram account dedicated to celebrating the art of joinery—and has since evolved into a thriving resource for interior designers, home renovators and design enthusiasts looking to deepen their knowledge and collaborate more effectively with trades.

In this conversation, we chat about Gemma’s journey from fresh design graduate to running her own studio, why she finds joinery sexy, how she’s built a platform that’s changing the way designers and trades collaborate. 

This chat is very conversational, it feels like Gemma is an old friend! She’s funny, sharp, so bloody talented and a little bit outrageous. I know you will enjoy my kōrero with Gemma as much as I did.

After listening, make sure you check out @_studiogemma_ on Instagram — it’s an absolute goldmine of inspiration and insights for design lovers. And then visit thejoineryedit.com for a deep dive into the sexy world of joinery and for her interior design work – studiogemma.com
