A First Home Buyers’ Never-Ending Renovation, With Pat + Ruby Shields

Melbourne interior designer Ruby Shields and her carpenter husband Patrick join us to talk about the five-year renovation of their first home in Mount Evelyn! The couple bought the house in 2018 (that had been left half-renovated by the previous owner) and have been working on it ever since. They share how this journey inspired Ruby’s to land her dream job at design studio WOWOWA, the struggles of renovating while working full time, and how they styled it with a mix of second-hand and designer furniture. Take a look inside their wonderful creative house and here, and follow Ruby on Instagram @rubyshields_designs.
