Simone Haag is the queen of the career change. Seriously! Her path to styling and design wasn’t straightforward – but boy, it is entertaining.
Simone originally studied business, but a passion for snowboarding took her from the snowfields of Mt. Buller, to Canada, then France, then to the boutique hotel scene in London, before touring the best surf spots on a boat owned by one of Australia’s best-known surf brands, and finally – believe it or not – a stint working on private jets! (We told you it was entertaining!).
Fast forward to today, and Simone has found her calling in the world of design, with her own small studio in Collingwood. Simone and her team fill a special niche in Melbourne’s interiors scene, offering clients a personalised service sourcing the most amazing and unique furniture, art, objects and lighting to complete (or transform) their home.
So, how did Sim go from the snowfields of Chamonix, to decking out some of the fanciest homes in Melbourne? You’ll have to listen to the podcast to find out!
