Building or renovating

Building or renovating a house is a massive undertaking. We’re here to help take the overwhelm out of the process. Whether you’re planning a new build, a knock-down rebuild, an extension, a renovation or just a quick spruce up, you’ll find plenty of practical advice here on Style Curator.

Style Curator is a leading Australian interiors blog that helps hundreds of thousands of people each month create a home they love. Founded by Interior Designer Gina Beschorner, the blog covers all aspects of building and renovating. After completing her own knock-down rebuild, Gina understands the real-life challenges that come with building a home.

To help you make decisions with confidence, we’ve created renovation checklists, inspiration galleries and expert guides. You’ll find building and renovating advice on everything from planning your layout to choosing finishes.

Our most popular articles cover topics like how to design a lighting plan, the key renovation measurements you need to know and how to define your design style. We also explore colour theory and help you develop a cohesive colour scheme for your home.

We regularly call on our network of experts for input. This includes interior designers, property stylists, builders, lighting and illumination specialists, electricians and more. Their insights ensure you’re getting up-to-date, trustworthy advice for your build or renovation.

Readers also love our detailed guides on what height to hang pendant lights, how to choose the right white paint and how to design the ultimate laundry.

We’re always happy to answer your building and renovating questions. For example, our comprehensive guide on how to select the right tile grout came directly from a reader request.
