Susan Redman is an Australian journalist and editor with a passion for architecture and design. This has led to a notable career writing about homes and the people who design, decorate, and live in them. She is currently the Homes Editor for Sunday Life, a Fairfax Media lifestyle magazine.

Redman has worked as a design columnist for The Sydney Morning Herald, The Age, Vogue Australia, and The Japan Times, and has been a regular contributor to various home and design publications, including Vogue Living, Country Style, Home Beautiful, Belle, Gardening Australia, Black + White, Houzz, and Domain. She's also written extensively about fashion, art, and travel.

In addition to Modern Houses in Black, Redman's other books are My Dream Kombi, a title that celebrates the retro design icon and the fascinating stories of the surfies, hippies, and celebrities who travelled in them; and Love Shacks, a book that not only features a collection of beautiful hideaways and retreats around the globe, but seeks to understand how people and places influence holiday home design.,
