Breaking Design Rules With Purpose: A Conversation with “The Nester” Myquillyn Smith
29 april 2024 · 31 min
Text me your thoughts or questions on this episode! Lees meer
“Break the rules on purpose because we believe the room will look better. Not because we don't know better.” That's the premise of Myquillyn Smith’s new book, “House Rules.” In my conversation with her we pull apart some of these key rules and why they’re so useful, across the board. I love her examples of balancing casual and formal elements, the value of antiques and art, and how decorating with meaningful objects is better than decorating with diamonds. The Slow Style philosophy regarding intentionality, contrast, and patience in home decor comes through loud and clear. I’m so happy to have Myquillyn back on the show!

8 april 2024 · 34 min
Text me your thoughts or questions on this episode! Lees meer
Home is the place you can be yourself in your wildest dreams because home is where we are creating who we want to become. This is the overarching theme of this week’s conversation with Carla Morano of the wallpaper and mural company, Fine & Dandy Co. Take some risks in putting yourself out there, visually, visibly throughout your home, and don’t worry so much about rules, or what other people think, whether or not things “go” together. Oh, and we talk about wallpaper, too!

Can you be a minimalist and a maximalist at the same time?
In this episode, I talk about the concepts of minimalism and maximalism. I share my personal experience with decluttering and the conflicting emotions I feel as someone who loves collecting things but also craves simplicity. Throughout the episode, I challenge the traditional definitions of these two styles, exploring the possibility of being both a maximalist and a minimalist. I emphasize the importance of intentional curation and finding balance in one's home. Ultimately, I encourage listeners to define their own style and embrace a mindful approach to their belongings.

How To Get Your Partner On Board: Dana Che on Resolving Relationship Disputes
29 januari 2024 · 35 min
Text me your thoughts or questions on this episode! Lees meer
During our insightful discussion on the podcast, Dana Che continually emphasized the concept of a "win-win" mentality while dealing with home-related conflicts among couples. Rather than trying to make one partner conform to the other's preferences, Dana offered strategies that encourage understanding, compromise, and finding mutual ground.
Dana expertly pointed out that navigating home decor conflict is not just about overcoming disagreements over furniture, pull-overs, or wall paint. It's more of a deeper issue that includes respecting each other's preferences. In dealing with disagreements over TV placements, chores or aesthetic choices, the idea is not to find a winner but to create a solution that pleases both parties.
She offered unique suggestions that encourage a "win-win" scenario in all aspects. For instance, if one partner prefers a dark room for nightly events while the other partner prefers a bright and lively room, she suggests solutions like blackout curtains that can cater to both preferences.
This "win-win" approach fosters respect and harmony in the relationship. It reinforces the idea that understanding and compromise are crucial for a peaceful living environment. Dana's conversation starters provide another tool to initiate these necessary discussions for couples. Through her advice, it's apparent that when both partners feel heard and respected, the home becomes a peaceful place where everyone's preferences are acknowledged and respected.
Dana Che Williams is a speaker, marriage and relationship coach, and the host of the Real Relationship Talk podcast where she helps people uncomplicate relationships and build deeper connections. On the podcast, she is known for her graceful candor, humor, and encouraging yet challenging relationship advice. Dana holds a B.A. in communication from Regent University. She shares her life with Shaun, her husband of twenty-four years, their four amazing chil…

Text me your thoughts or questions on this episode! Lees meer
Buying handmade items is one of the best ways to share gifts over the holidays. And in this episode, I talk with Anitra Terrell, owner of Reflektion Design, business that celebrates the beauty and authenticity of African art. Anitra's journey into the world of African art and textiles began during her time as a Fulbright scholar in Ghana. Her passion for authentic African art and culture, rooted in her upbringing in culturally rich Philadelphia, eventually led her to create an online store that sells the handmade objects she finds through her many trips to Ghana, Burkina Faso, Kenya and Uganda. Anitra's narrative is a testament to the transformative power of embracing one's heritage through handmade objects.

Folly Cove Textile Designs: Exploring the Legacy with Elena Sarni
20 november 2023 · 32 min
Text me your thoughts or questions on this episode! Lees meer
In the 1930s, a design collective of mostly women produced textiles and wallpaper using their own block printed methods. They called themselves the Folly Cove Designers and became a powerhouse in the Americana design movement. Their commitment to high quality craftsmanship was an antidote to highly mechanized, mass produced goods and their legacy is still alive today. In this episode I interview the author of a new book about the history of the Folly Cove Designers, Elena Sarni.

Art for All: Creating a Meaningful Home with Rachel Loos
6 november 2023 · 34 min
Text me your thoughts or questions on this episode! Lees meer
Today is all about art. I think art is the one aspect of a home that’s critical to creating your signature style, and it’s probably obvious why. There is nothing that reflects who you are as deeply as what you choose to hang on your walls. My guest today is Rachel Loos, author of the book “Art At Home,” where you’ll find both practical information about finding, purchasing and hanging art, as well as inspiration from homes that are filled with it. Rachel has taken something that is completely subjective in terms of taste and appeal and made it make a bit more sense in terms of how we might all become collectors according to our own personal narratives.

My guest today is Lucy Hunter, and she happens to be very lucky, I think, to have that last name because it’s so fitting to her personality. She is, first and foremost, a landscape designer, and she’s also a floral designer, or an artist who uses flowers, really, and it seems she does all of this by hunting in nature for her inspiration, seeking out the beauty in imperfection that mother nature does so well. Today we’re talking about her second book, called The Flower Hunter, and it’s a wonderful conversation about life and creativity and self reflection and creating an environment that perfectly suits who you are. You’ll learn as much about design principles as you will about how to follow beauty through its lifespan.

Why does style, design, and decor matter? Here's the thing, my friend, style isn't just about superficiality. It actually brings several benefits that can enhance our well-being and confidence. In this epsiode, I break it down into four categories: emotional well-being, relationships, personal development, and confidence. By paying attention to our homes and cultivating a signature style, we can create spaces that truly reflect and support who we are. And let me tell you, it's not just about following trends or seeking validation from others. It's about embracing our unique taste and designing our homes in a way that brings us joy and fulfillment. So, if you're a homeowner or someone looking to create a personalized living space, this episode is for you.

What's It Worth (to you)? A Guide for When to Save and When to Splurge
2 oktober 2023 · 30 min
Text me your thoughts or questions on this episode! Lees meer
How does the concept of value affect our spending decisions when it comes to our homes? Being budget-conscious doesn't mean always going for the cheapest option. Instead, I believe in being realistic about what we can afford and understanding our own criteria for assigning value to things. Consider other factors like who made the item, how it was manufactured, and the materials used, when determining its worth. By prioritizing these factors, we can make more informed decisions that align with our values and contribute to a sustainable home. In this episode, I outline three key aspects of the slow style philosophy: using what we have creatively, researching before making purchases, and investing in high-quality, long-lasting items. By applying these principles, we can make mindful choices that reflect our personal style and financial situation. So if you're looking to make more informed spending decisions and create a home that aligns with your values, this episode of Slow Style Home is a must-listen.

Transform Your Home and Your Mind: The Psychology Behind Interior Design with Anita Yokota
11 september 2023 · 46 min
Text me your thoughts or questions on this episode! Lees meer
My guest today is psychologist-turned-interior-desiger, Anita Yokota. When she embarked on her career as a therapist and saw clients in their own homes, she began to comprehend the impact of their environments on their mental and emotional health. Her in-home visits exposed her to a variety of home environments, and she soon noticed a correlation between the state of a home and the emotional climate within it. This insight led her to help clients organize their living spaces, which in turn reduced tensions within the family. After 20 years in therapy, she made a pivot to her creative passion for interior design. She has created her own home therapy method, an approach that combines tangible organization with cognitive feelings, and she's just released her first book, also called Home Therapy. In our conversation, Anita shares story after story about how to heal yourself and your relationship using intentional design.

I have a lot of fun talking with my guest this week, Jewel Marlowe. I've been dying to get to know her because I could tell from her style that she's someone who would probably make me laugh. And she does not disappoint! Jewel is the blogger behind Jeweled Interiors and also works as an interior designer. She is a master of the mix, meaning she can take three objects that look like they have nothing in common and figure out how to make them all work in the same space using the magic of color, pattern and scale. And luckily she's able to share how she does this during the episode. Jewel has honed her talents over the 13 different homes that she's lived in as a military spouse. So if any of you can relate to that, this one's for you! (Replay from 2018)

I am delighted to introduce you to the woman behind the rug and and linen brands Dash & Albert and Pinecone Hill. Annie Selke is a true powerhouse of an entrepreneur and she’s also a lovely human being. I remember when I first first encountered her Dash & Albert rugs, years ago, when I was poking around in specialty home decor shops in Maine. I thought to myself, wow, those are not fun and colorful, I’ll be they will also stand the test of time. And I was right! Annie’s aesthetic is classic and timeless and elegant, but it’s also really, really fun. Fast forward to this interview and my visit to meet her and her staff at her headquarters in Lenox, MA. Her staff, by the way, love her, which says a lot about any business owner. We met in her office and toured her warehouses and I also got to stay in her beautiful inn, decked out with all of her fabrics.

A Year of Knots with Windy Chien

Windy Chien is an artist with several past lives which means she's one of those people you can relate to because her path in life hasn't been a straight line. She's done many things, tried many things, had ups and downs, all before landing where she is today. And speaking of straight lines, her medium as an artist has everything to do with lines... and more specifically, with the knots she creates out of those lines. Windy Chen has just come out with a book, The Year Of Knots, detailing her 365 day long project where she challenged herself to learn and perfect one new knot a day and record her progress on Instagram. I was blown away by the end result when I saw a video of her final art installation.

It is my great privilege to introduce you to my guest today. Newell Turner is a bit of a legend when it comes to design and journalism. He’s responsible for the formation of the entire Hearst magazine editorial division, heading up three big shelter publications: Elle Decor, House Beautiful, and Veranda magazines. He’s just released a gorgeous new book called "Mexican: A Journey Through Design," which showcases not only his own photography but also his obvious love for his adopted country. The book is one you want to sink into and absorb the colors, textures, and exquisite details of various design eras throughout Mexico's history. But, if I do say so myself, this conversation with Newell is a pretty good companion piece because of how warm and candid he is. This has definitely been one of my favorite interviews I’ve ever done.

Understanding and Applying Feng Shui with Anjie Cho

Text me your thoughts or questions on this episode! Lees meer
My guest today is Anjie Cho, designer and author of “Mindful Homes: Create Healing Living Spaces with Mindfulness and Feng Shui.” What makes Anjie and her book so helpful is that she explains the principles of this ancient Chinese approach to creating spaces in a way that we can use in our modern lives and contemporary homes. Even if you’re skeptical about alternative medicine (and Feng Shui is kind of like a diagnostic and curative plan for our homes), you’re going to get something out of this episode. And that’s because Anjie understands that not all of Feng Shui needs to be applied literally. Without spoiling it any further, let’s get started with Anjie.

My guest today is Delyse Berry, co-owner, with her husband, of Upstate Down, a real estate company, interior design and lifestyle company located in the beautiful Hudson Valley north of New York City. The region stretches all along the Hudson River, so depending on how far north you go, you're anywhere from about a hour to two and half hours away from Manhattan. In this episode, we talk about a particular essence, a sense of place, that creates and sustains a recognizable aesthetic. It's a beautiful part of the world, and you'll probably want to make plans to visit by the time we wrap up this conversation. And maybe, once you're there, you'll end up giving Delyse a call, and ask her to find you your dream home! Here's Delyse.

I have a lot in common with my guest today, designer Lisa Kahn. She lives and works in Florida, near the town I grew up in, she and I both have kids with intellectual disabilities and We’re in complete alignment in terms of how we think about the connection between our overall well being and the built environment. In other words, how our physical spaces affect our sense of self and happiness. I think you’ll find her approach to be just as helpful and illuminating as I did.

I had a delightful conversation with my next guest, Lizzie McGraw. We talk about how she started and developed her popular boutique, Tumbleweed & Dandelion, in Venice Beach, California, and then went on to create interiors for many of her repeat clients. She’s recently come out with a beautiful book called "Creative Style," in which she shares her thought process on design, which prompted my interest in having her on the show. Visit the show notes pages for this episode at www.littleyellowcouch.com/podcast to see some wonderful pictures of Lizzies work and learn more about her design inspiration. Here’s Lizzie.
