In this section, you’ll find profile stories that show what it’s really like to work in the design and interiors industries. We interview leading experts across a range of creative fields so you can explore different paths and discover where your passion could take you.

If you want to turn your love of home styling or design into a career, our real-world insights will help. Our ‘Day in the life’ series takes you behind the scenes and shows the realities of working as a design professional.

Some of the design careers we feature include:
• interior designer
• property stylist
• colour consultant

You’ll also find our most popular career stories here. One standout is our ‘Day in the life’ with Interior Designer Kate Walker.

She styles all the homewares and furniture you see on their website.

Readers also love our interview with Emma Tobin, one of Australia’s leading property stylists. She gives an honest look into the role — including the heavy lifting most people don’t expect.
