From The Bachelor to The Block: Inside Laura Byrne and Matty J's $2m South Coast renovation as they reject 'millennial beige' trend


Laura Byrne and Matty 'J' Johnson are dividing fans by delving into one of the most controversial and divisive topics known to the internet - their own home renovation.

The simple photo, that shows blush, deep purple, rust, and mustard coloured tiles intended to cover the living room fireplace, attracted thousands of fiery comments. 'If the beige brigade come for these doors… I will riot,' she warned her followers in the video caption, taking a cheeky swipe at a certain group of home renovators who are often criticised on 'home reno fail' TikTok. The home is set on 746 sqm overlooking Racecourse Beach and previously belonged to United Nations simultaneous conference translator Valerie Barnes, who died in 2021 aged 94.
