Introducing
Shaynna Blaze
Shaynna Blaze spent the first part of her career designing commercial interiors before founding Blank Canvas Interiors in Melbourne in 2005. Sixteen years of television followed — co-host on Selling Houses Australia from 2008, judge on The Block from 2012, winner of Celebrity Apprentice Australia 2021 — and in that time she became the Australian designer most people turn to when they want to understand why a room works, not just how it looks. She has written two books, designed product ranges with Molmic and Urban Road, and built a practice that still takes residential commissions. The television came with the territory. The practice is what she keeps returning to.
What makes her the right guide for Palm Springs is not the résumé — it is the way she learned to see. She grew up in a butterfly house, a roofline kinked at the centre, a signature of early 1960s Australian domestic architecture, and spent her childhood in a space that was teaching her the language of mid-century modernism before anyone named it. Palm Springs is the source of that education: the architects who built in the Coachella Valley in the 1940s and 50s were solving the same problems Shaynna has spent thirty years thinking about — how form serves life, how light enters a room, what happens when you stop decorating and start designing. This is not a design tour. It is a week with someone who has been preparing for it her whole career.
