Design Anatomy

Join us for a candid and entertaining exploration of the funny and humbling side of interior design as we share our biggest mistakes and the lessons they taught us. From disastrous color choices in children's rooms to the importance of careful client involvement, we cover a range of design fails that all professionals face at some point in their careers. By recounting our blunders, we hope to inspire and educate aspiring designers about the realities of the profession and the invaluable insights that come from mistakes. As we discuss how to avoid the pitfalls of over-promising or under-quoting and the need for strong communications with tradespeople, we reflect on essential tips for navigating the design landscape. We also delve deep into the psyche behind colour selection and its impact on a space, aiming to provide listeners with practical advice they can apply to their future projects. Through light-hearted and humorous storytelling, it serves as a reminder that design is a journey filled with growth through vulnerability. If you enjoy our discussions, we encourage you to connect with us through social media, share your own experiences, and join in on the conversation about the ups and downs of design.
