We have lots of opinions about the trends we think should go, which is very polarizing, so don't be offended if you have something we don't like and love it. You do you, but we definitely have some opinions to share. This kind of got sparked in our idea bank when we were looking at an article called “Ten Designers Share What Trends Need to Disappear Forever.” Naturally this caught our eye, and we were curious to see if we agree or disagree. These are some of the greats that we look up to and have all heard of, so we'll let you know who the designer was, what they thought, and then what our own thoughts are on each item or topic.

Every so often, I try to bring back past conversations so you can hear them again and this one is special. It was recorded live at the Pacific Design Center in 2015. It was called Capitals of Style and featured, Jane Hallworth, Ashley Hicks and Vincente Wolf. Moderated by Dan Rubenstein,  with a forward by Jeff Sampson, then VP of Marketing for the PDC and whom many of us in the SoCal design community miss dearly. I wanted to republish this one because while travel has always been a top influencer of designers, travel is now so hot again it is time for both discovery and re-discovery. It's time to recharge the batteries. It's time to get out and while you're at it, to go and see some world class design and architecture. Something tells me this conversation from 7 years ago holds as true today as it did then. Enjoy.

Kristin invites her behind the scenes assistant, Ashley, to be front and center on today’s podcast episode. Ashley is a soon to be graduate from Tennessee State University who decided to change her major from Nursing to Studio Art. Talk about courage! She discusses her journey on how she was able to build up the courage to follow her passion, regardless of what others thought about her choices to change majors.Ashley’s work focuses on the strong female figure. To her, a woman’s greatest strength is her emotions. Learning how to express her own emotions and how others wield their power of emotions is what drives Ashley into creating art.  Someone once told Ashley that she hasn’t allowed her fears about becoming an artist stop her from doing what she loves. It seems that as we get older we allow fear to stop us from doing things that make us happy. Children, however, have a raw courage to declare who they are and what they want to be in life. What happened to our raw courage, and why do we allow fear to take our joy away?Courage does not exist only in what we do, but also in what we don’t do. In a world full of antagonists who try to push our buttons, we must think of how important it may be for us to not react. Don’t let anyone bully their way into making you do something you may regret, rather, find the courage to walk awayAs Ashley makes her way into the art scene she is finding out that it takes courage to appear confident in her skills and her abilities. With each passing experience she is finally finding the courage to be confident and show the world that she is an artist.

For Ashley Hicks, acclaimed interior and architectural designer, an eye for good taste runs in the family. Here, the son of David Nightingale Hicks recounts his illustrious upbringing amidst the upper echelons of British society – and reveals the secret behind his indefatigable ‘assistant’, Francis. Ashley Hicks’ formative years were as extraordinary as you’d expect from the son of David Nightingale Hicks – esteemed interior designer – and Lady Pamela Hicks, the younger daughter of Earl Louis Mountbatten. Luxurious and eccentric in equal measure, their influence lives on in Hicks’ own practice, from the designer’s signature totemic sculptures and opulent textiles, to his varied oeuvre of familial memoirs and photographic journals. The latest of these, Buckingham Palace: The Interiors, was published in 2018 by Rizzoli in partnership with the Royal Collection Trust.

You don’t build an empire like this on hope and luck. It takes vision, hard work, passion and belief in your convictions. They have been honored by countless organizations and media outlets including the Toyota Standing O-Vation Award.
