SPACES THAT BREATHE

We subtract the superfluous to amplify the sensory—spaces where airy minimalism and daring color collide.

At MOS, we craft spaces that breathe—not with emptiness, but with intention. By marrying bold ideas and immersive color to minimalist frameworks, we design rooms that pulse with feeling. Here, less isn’t absence; it’s the canvas for vivid individualism, synergic harmony, and function that speaks louder than words.

Bold Doesn’t Mean Busy.

We design immersive, breathable interiors where every choice—from a whisper of color to a roar of texture—serves a story worth living in.

Timeless foundations meet fearless accents—spaces that work hard, feel deeply, and never fade.

The MOS Ethos

Minus One Studio (MOS) is a Melbourne-based Spatial Storyteller for Brands & Homes pioneered by Natalie Ma — a designer, solo parent, and full-time wrangler of chaos (both in her studio and at home). Through the beautiful mess of balancing Lego sculptures and mood boards, Natalie discovered that great design, like parenting, thrives in harmony: between spilled cereal and serene spaces, bold accents and bedtime stories, surviving and living vibrantly. This philosophy pulses through every MOS project.

We redefine spaces by stripping away the superfluous to reveal environments where minimalism meets bold individuality. Crafting immersive, breathable interiors that harmonize form, function, and feeling, we blend serene foundations with daring color palettes, unexpected textures, and functional poetry. Rejecting transient trends, our designs pulse with timeless character, creating sanctuaries as audacious as they are purposeful. At MOS, we don’t just design rooms; we sculpt experiences that invite light, energy, and life to thrive, proving that less isn’t absence — it’s the canvas for extraordinary living.
