About MeganGaea
Hi! I'm Meg.
I’ve worked for as long as I can remember.
As a teenager, I held multiple jobs while still at school. Even then, I was drawn to design. In high school, I began designing and constructing gowns, and at sixteen, one of my pieces was worn on a catwalk by a professional model. That early experience of seeing something I had imagined come to life on a body, under lights, never left me.
A few years later, I stepped into design and journalism, working as a reporter and desktop publisher for a major newspaper. From there, I moved into the printing industry, eventually becoming a pre-press manager of a printing studio. I worked across graphic design roles in and around Canberra, learning production, precision, layout, typography, and the discipline of getting details right. Those years taught me how to think structurally and creatively at the same time.
Life shifted when I moved from Canberra to the Snowy Mountains. It was there that I met my husband, George. Within five years, we welcomed five sons into our family. Those years were full, loud, and beautiful. While raising our boys, I began studying interior design from home and developed a deep love of photography.
Photography became another creative language for me. I photograph live music and performers, animals, macro details such as insects and textures, and astrophotography. I am drawn to light in all its forms, from stage lighting to distant stars. As a family, we filled our weekends with tennis, martial arts, and skiing in the mountains.
At the end of 2022, we moved our family to Brisbane. I continued my interior design studies, and in August 2024, I founded MeganGaea.
MeganGaea brings together everything I have done and loved: fashion, design, colour, photography, structure, storytelling, and craftsmanship. It is not a sudden idea or a trend-driven venture. It is the natural evolution of decades of creative work, practical experience, and persistence.
Today, I design and handcraft each piece myself. My background in print and design means I understand construction and precision. My background in fashion and interiors shapes how I use texture and colour. My background in photography influences how I see light and form. And my life as a mother of five keeps me grounded in what real, everyday function looks like.
MeganGaea is built slowly, intentionally, and personally. It carries my history, my skills, and my standards.
And it continues to grow.
Meg 🌸
