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.

Balancing Cohesive Design and Unexpected Elements with Andrew Suvalsky
Andrew Suvalsky's work is right up my aesthetic alley. He leans towards maximalism, but he knows when to pull back. And he's what I call a master of the mix, by which I mean he can take random, seemingly disconnected things and pull them together in a way that's completely unexpected, but also beautifully in communication with each other. I'm talking colors, patterns, eras, styles, materials.... and it doesn't look like a big mess or a high end thrift store gone crazy. If you want to learn how do this in your own home, I want you to study Andrew's work. Really look at each room and think about why his compositions work. And you can start on with this episode's show notes page on our website at littleyellowcouch.com.
