by Zandra Zuraw
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.

Text me your thoughts or questions on this episode! My conversation with Los Angeles designer Kim Gordon is about setting an intention before you design anything at all. Kim asks a house what it wants to be before she draws a single floor plan, and she treats the senses — not the color palette — as the true starting point of a room. This episode comes from our archives and therefore it's the full length version. The podcast is on break for two weeks. Subscribe to hear all of the n...

In this guest episode, I sit down with Julia Collins, a London-based art advisor and dealer behind Collins & Green, to talk about how to actually look at a painting — no art history degree required. Julia has a real academic art background, and by her own admission, it's “in many ways irrelevant” to how she looks at a painting. The pieces she loves best aren't always the most te...

In this guest episode, I sit down with Chicago-area interior designer and author Maida Korte to talk about what happens when a “tight ship” personality runs headlong into a house that refuses to be controlled. Maida’s new memoir, Gutted: How an Old House Remodeled Me, set out to be a book about renovating a hundred-year-old house in Woodstock, Illinois. What it became, she told me, ...

In this Think Like A Designer episode, I sit down with Debbie Mathews, a Nashville-based interior designer and antiques dealer, to look through a curated selection of the rooms she's designed — from a sunroom in Belle Meade to a ranch outside Franklin, Tennessee. Every good client relationship starts the same way: the client names a problem and a few basics — a color they love...
Text me your thoughts or questions on this episode! In this solo episode, I'm going deep on one of the five physical elements of every Slow Style home — and arguably the most personal one: Heritage and Culture. It's about heritage as authorship. Not just the objects you've inherited, but the idea that your personal history — however much of it you know, however complicated it is, however far back it goes — is a story you get to write, edit, and hand forward. Most people treat their heirlooms ...

In this Think Like A Designer episode, I sit down with Liz Williams, an Atlanta-based interior designer known for symmetry, elegance, and an eye for detail, to look through a curated selection of her portfolio — from a grand formal home on the Chattahoochee River to a barn in Madison, Georgia, that is rustic on the outside and quietly refined within. It's about the last decisi...
Text me your thoughts or questions on this episode! Want to avoid renovation regrets? I talk with interior designer Danielle Nicholson about the thing that causes more renovation heartbreak than bad tile choices or blown budgets: starting before you’re actually ready. Danielle’s book “Don’t Start Without Me” is built around a single idea: the real work of renovating happens before you even talk to a contractor. Or even a designer. Before anyone shows up with a truck. Before the showroom...
Text me your thoughts or questions on this episode! In this Designers at Home episode, I tour the home of Jill Litner Kaplan, a Boston-area interior designer whose approach to decorating stopped me in my tracks — not because it's flashy or maximalist, but because of a single idea I couldn't stop thinking about after I left. It's about how color palates emerge from storytelling as opposed to the "pop of color" advice that's been watered down into a band-aid solution. Subscribe to s...
