You know I have a crush on Shaynna Blaze.
I’ve made no secret of it on the blog before. An award-winning interior designer, leading lady of The Block and Selling Houses Australia, colour creative director of Taubmans and now a twice-published author. Really, is there anything she can’t do. Oh, did I forget to mention the singing? Yeah, it’s safe to say Shaynna is a septuple threat – or something along those lines.
I am so excited that her second book, Design with Colour and Style, has just landed. What Shaynna does so well in this release is take you on a step by step journey through the process of designing with colour – learning about its impact and how it can work in different spaces. She’ll also help you find your colour – and show you how to rock it at home – as well as outlining how to layer a space with different elements to make a room feel resolved.
Shaynna also touches on light and reflection, patterns and textures, colour balance and more.
This is a comprehensive go-to guide with a stack of wonderfully styled photographs that put the elements discussed into practice.
“I’m incredibly excited about my new book,” Shaynna tells me. “It is full of creative and informative text and pictures for people to really get an understanding of how to use colour to their advantage – and work out their own personal style”.

Love the colours and love Shaynna!
I’ve recently moved into the first house that is totally mine (post separation) and am loving being able to style it without having to compromise. I could definitely do with some of Shaynna’s help to pull it all together though.
I would love this book and i Need this book! Putting together Mood boards to furnish our nearly finished home! Shaynna always encourages me to be creative, her simple and out of the box idea’s add to mine. Classic and classy.. Shaynnas Bible 😉 Will take front center on my Mantle piece.

Great giveaway Chris. It looks a little bit fabulous! I’m totally obsessed by colour in other people’s homes, need to bring some into mine stat! Need not want this book!
Wow Chris what a fabulous giveaway! For along time now my decorating has been shall we say safe. Just starting now to introduce a bit of colour, still not overly confident but I’m sure this gorgeous new book from Shaynna Blaze would certainly inspire me to use a lot more colour. I definitely need a bit of help with my decorating & I’m sure Shanna’s book would be invaluable!
I totally have a girl-crush on Shaynna and can’t wait to get my hands on a copy of her new book! (Her first book, Design Your Home, takes pride of place on my coffee table.) I’m currently renovating my own 1980’s duplex and although I’m good with layout and space and I feel I know my own style, I find it difficult to take risks with colour and pattern. So I end up buying things that are too safe and look matchy-matchy. This results in my rooms not having enough personality or ‘wow’ factor. I’m sure Shaynna’s new book will have plenty of advice to help me ‘Design with Colour and Style’!!
