Kaya. We are Bilyaa.

 

At Bilyaa, we believe in the power of design to shape meaningful connections between people, place, and culture.

 

As an Aboriginal-owned design studio in Perth, Bilyaa is committed to honouring the legacy and wisdom of Indigenous communities, working hand-in-hand with Elders, artists, and local voices to create spaces that are both culturally grounded and environmentally sustainable.

​

Our name, Bilyaa, means "fresh water" or "flowing water," reflecting our deep respect for the land and our commitment to a design philosophy that flows naturally from place.

 

Our goal is for every project we undertake to tell a story: a harmonious blend of tradition, innovation and respect for the environment.

Bilyaa team

Pablo, Len Collard, and Frank celebrate the creation of Bilyaa as an Aboriginal design company. Inspired by Len's insights and guidance, Bilyaa was born with the mission to honour Aboriginal culture and contribute to an inclusive future in Australia.

Bilyaa co-founders Frank Mitchell and Pablo Grandío with artist Breeanna Haynes.

Frank, Breeanna and Pablo celebrate their friendship and the collaboration that shaped Bilyaa. Breeanna, a proud Nyoongar woman with a talent for design, gave shape and meaning to the name "Bilyaa" through the creation of the logo and artwork that define the company’s background and visual identity, honouring Aboriginal culture in every detail.
