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”.

I am scared of colour and to implement it in my house but I like it when i see it on the lifestyle show.. Would like to see some ideas and change it in my house.. Book would help
We’ve been an qualified interior designer for 20yrs. The last 18mths I’ve been incredibly ill, in & put of hospital & not been able to take on new client jobs… I’ve lost my design mojo
I love Shaynna’s style and approach to decorating. I’m a little afraid of combing pattern and colours so always looking for help on that front. After a decade of red being my favourite colour and art deco being my signature style, a move back to the coast and a builder basic house has me creating a coastal look that’s a little tailored and references mid-century. It’s taking some time to move away from my previous style but I’m so ready to pull the finished touches together in this house and a little help from Shaynna’s book would be very welcome.
Shaynna is and I need her book because:
Stunning
Honest
Approach to colour;
YOLO

Bible
Love her
Accurate
Zealous
Entertaining
I am dire need this book! Shaynaa is hands down the best interior designer whose styles and colours create amazing tranformations. I want to be able to do the same by reading her book, it is vital I learn from the best.
Given that my dream is to go on the block, I need this book to make sure I impress Shayna when I finally go on the show!
Shaynna has great creative style, makes putting a room together look so easy.Looking forward to starting my revamp room by room later this year,but need a bit more confidence.
I need it like I need to breathe.
I’m renovating and restyling
Colour is my passion
Shayna knows her stuff
Just love the bliss Shayna has created at Rick Steins place at Mollymook, maybe I can pick up some of THAT THING that I am MISSING!!.
I love Shaynna! I’ve watched all the episodes of The Block and all her comments are so relevant! Sometimes I think she’s the only one who says something useful. Sometimes. And I watch Selling Houses Australia with my mum. I need this book for a multitude of reasons.
