Susan McCoubrey

Susan McCoubrey, director of home interior store Block & Chisel, favours classic comfort and a timeless, easy style in open, airy spaces. And “trendy” does not feature.

- Nia Magoulianiti-McGregor

I am a lucky, busy, creative entrepreneur working with my brother and mother in a dynamic interiors business constantly trying to balance my other passion – raising my beloved three kids, aged seven, 12 and 16. I run their busy schedules while balancing my home life with my dogs and awesome husband, Dean McCoubrey, who teaches online safety and digital well-being in schools. I seek balance and harmony with beautiful things around me.

My personal style is eclectic and simple. I love mixing classic Chinese antiques with simple loose cover linen sofas and treasures with meaningful collections and flashes of colour. I adore original artworks by my father Sibley McAdam.
