Before he worked there, Ty Symonds was OB-SESSED with Country Road. So openly obsessed in fact, four people sent him the job ad for head of homewares design at the iconic retailer when it came up. The world knew he was destined for this job, and he got it!
This gig is the culmination of a long and dedicated career in Australian design: from freelancing at Peter Alexander fresh out of uni to designing costumes for Beyonce’s On The Run II world tour on 48 hours notice (!) while working for Brisbane retailer BlackMilk.
Now heading up his own team of six at Country Road, his fantasy job is just as good as he imagined.
