Slow Style Home: Decorating Soulful 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.

A Masterclass in Eclectic Design with Julia Chasman
In this episode of the Slow Style Home Podcast, I have an inspiring conversation with Julia Chasman, who transitioned from a 30-year career in the feature film industry to becoming a home designer. Julia shares how industry changes and her growing disinterest in film led her to renovate historic homes in Los Angeles. She highlights her approach to design, emphasizing the importance of storytelling, attention to detail, and incorporating personal touches. We talk specifics of her projects, such as creating personalized spaces using vintage collections and how she seamlessly balances prints and colors. Julia also discusses practical tips on TV placement and integrating family heirlooms in home décor. Through our conversation, Julia reveals her love for open shelving, portraits, and the importance of “the hand” in design, reflecting a human connection in home interiors. This episode captures Julia’s journey and design philosophy, making it clear how her diverse life experiences enrich her work.
