Shaynna Blaze

Shaynna Blaze is an award-winning Interior Designer, best known for her role on The Block and Selling Houses Australia. With an undeniable eye for style, Shaynna has created stunning interiors in residential homes and commercial spaces for more than twenty years.

In 2008, Shaynna launched her design career with a role as Interior Designer and Co-Presenter on the Lifestyle Channel’s award-winning show, Selling Houses Australia. Arguably the Lifestyle channel’s most successful show, Selling Houses Australia is the series that just keeps on giving. Making its return for an eleventh season in 2018 (that’s over 100 episodes of life changing renovations!), the show sees Shaynna helping homeowners change their lives with her design expertise, transforming unsellable houses into market-ready homes.

In 2012, Shaynna joined the team of design experts as a Judge on the Nine Network’s award- winning reality show The Block. Starring alongside judges Neale Whitaker, Darren Palmer and host Scott Cam, Shaynna lends her creative expertise and invaluable advice to the teams of Blockheads vying for first place. In 2017, Shaynna returned to The Block for its twelfth series, which saw contestants take on five neglected Elsternwick homes to save them from demolition. The team will be back with more Block action in 2018.

As Shaynna’s profile has grown, so too has her visibility across a number of other media platforms. Shaynna’s expertise is highly sought-after in areas including design, colour and trends – expertise which has seen her writing columns in the Herald Sun and monthly online Q&As for The Lifestyle Channel, as well as featuring as a regular contributor for Grand Designs Magazine.

With her undeniable flair for design, as well as her warm, friendly presenting style, Shaynna has grown to become one of Australia’s best-loved media personalities. In recent years, Selling Houses Australia has taken home a swag of ASTRA Awards for ‘Most Outstanding Lifestyle Program’ 2009, 2010 and 2013, and ‘Favourite Australian Program’ in 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2014. In 2013 and 2014, Shaynna beat off stiff competition to take home the coveted subscriber voted category of ‘Favourite Female Personality’.

In December 2014, Shaynna was invited to perform at Vision Australia Carols by Candlelight. Having spent her earlier years performing at jazz clubs, Shaynna took to the stage for what was a dream come true, as she explains: “I was incredibly honoured and humbled to sing at the recent Vision Australia Carols by Candlelight on Christmas Eve saying: “It was the most amazing experience, I’m still trying to wipe the smile off my face of how much fun I had on the night.”

Shaynna is available as a guest speaker or host at both private and corporate functions, where she focuses both on design and our social environment and how it affects how we live and communicate.
