Adele and Damian, with the comedy trio Sooshi Mango, are selling their house at 4 Aberdeen Drive, Doncaster.
Grafico founder and Sooshi Mango collaborator Damian Corney is selling his Doncaster house where the garage features a car racing tribute.
Mr Corney’s four-bedroom home at 4 Aberdeen Drive is known as Grafico House after the design firm he started two decades ago in his nonna’s garage.
Today, its clients include Louis Vuitton, Essendon Football Club, Richmond’s The Motley Hotel, Dutton Group car dealerships and Zagame Automotive Group.

Grafico also does custom vinyl wraps on Toyota Lexus cars which serve the Melbourne Cup every year.
Mr Corney met the Melbourne-based comedy trio Sooshi Mango, consisting of brothers Joe and Carlo Salanitri and their friend Andrew Manfre, when Grafico installed wallpaper at their Lygon St restaurant, Johnny, Vince and Sam’s Ristorante.
The group has filmed some of their viral video skits at Grafico’s showroom and auto shop with Mr Corney even co-starring in one clip.
A video featuring Sooshi Mango’s signature character, reminiscent of an Italian nonna and Greek yiayia, selecting wallpaper has amassed more than 2.3m social media views since January.

Mr Corney, known for his appearances on The Block, also hosts the YouTube Drive with Damian series.
Upcoming guests will include Married At First Sight contestants and design influencers.
Mr Corney said Grafico House was decorated with easily-removable wallpaper featuring gumtrees and fern patterns, reminiscent of Melbourne’s leafy east.
“I like to call it a bit of a celebration of the area,” he said.
The garage is adorned with a wallpaper image of the 24 Hours of Le Mans endurance-focused sports car race.
The house has seen many large Italian family gatherings.
Wallpaper showcasing a photograph taken at a 1960s-era 24 Hours of Le Mans endurance-focused sports car race, still held in France every year, adorns the double garage’s interior.
The living room and the open-plan family and dining room is next to the kitchen, featuring a Miele oven, microwave and grille, induction cooktop, dishwasher, stone benchtops, 2PAC cabinetry, a walk-in pantry and island-style breakfast bar.
Outside, the covered pergola has heating and a ceiling fan.
The wallpaper reflects the natural environment of Melbourne’s eastern suburbs.

Mr Corney said the home was located in the Tullamore estate, which used to be a golf course, and is a “tranquil and relaxed family area”.
He and his wife are selling up to move closer to Melbourne’s CBD with their children.
The house will be auctioned with a $1.58m-$1.68m price guide on March 23.
Noel Jones’s Daniel D’Assisi and Steven Qian have the listing.
