Slow Style Home: Decorating Personal, Meaningful Interiors
You want a home that’s uniquely you. One that reflects your passions, values and lifestyle. And you want to create one on your own, without having to hire a designer, breaking the bank, or hurting the planet. The challenge is that there are too many voices telling you what trend to jump on, what rules you must follow, and what “beautiful” looks like. Plus, you don’t want to scrap everything you own and start all over. It’s hard to know how to wrap your arms around this big, important concept called “home!” On this podcast, you’ll learn from the experts exactly why some rooms work (and others don’t), how to master a mix of styles and preferences when you have a bunch of them jumbled together, and inspiration for being brave and taking the creation of your dream home into your own hands.

Slow Style Home: Decorating Personal, Meaningful Interiors
Leaning In to the Outrageous with Divine Savages
Joining me today are Jamie Watkins and Tom Kennedy of Divine Savages. Together they produce lines of wallpaper and fabric that are both a bit outrageous in terms of color, pattern, and even subject matter, but with such attention paid to the smallest detail that when you look close there's a delicate beauty to their designs as well. We'll talk about the patterns themselves and their recent collaboration with the Natural History Museum in London, the first time ever that the Museum has sold wallpaper based on their rarified collection. We'll also get a peek inside Tom & Jamie's home, which they use as a bit of a laboratory for ideas. I'm now dying to meet these guys in person because you can tell they'd be fabulous hosts and we'd have a lot of fun together. I think you're going to want to meet them too!
