Hey friend!  It's here - the most anticipated episode all year. The What's Hot & What's Not in home design in 2025. This year I gathered my insight from Better Homes and Garden, House Beautiful, Southern Living and Elle Decor. Surprisingly this year, more than any other years, most of these lists were in alignment and agreement with each other - not many outliers.  Of course, I added my personal opinion about some of them, where others I was in complete agreement and even some where I was in disagreement. :)  Trend or not, recommended design choices by fancy-pants designers or not, the ultimate goal here is for you to LOVE YOUR HOME. To release any expectations that your homes should be Pinterset perfect or Instagram worthy. Your home should be a reflection of you and if that means you put  carpet into your bathroom because you love the way if feels on your feet when you step out of the bath (you'll have to listen to the episode to know WHY in 2025 I'm talking about carpeted bathrooms), if it makes you happy - it's OK. ;)  Joking aside, I know that making decisions in your home is a big deal. It's frustrating, laborious and connected to a lot of things that have nothing to do with the ultimate goal of what it looks like: money spent, compromising styles, honoring grandma's heirlooms, etc. If you are ready for a bit of guidance and a lot of support as you balance it all in 2025 - I invite you to book a Decorating SOS Coaching Call. Together we'll create a plan that fits your needs while matching your personality, budget and timeline.  Book a Decorating SOS Coaching Call Happy styling!  dani    // Links mentioned in show: // Email: hello@figandfarmathome.com Website: https://figandfarmathome.com Join The Collective (monthly membership): https://www.figandfarmathome.com/thecollective Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/figandfarm/ FREE Facebook Community: https://www.bit.ly/design101group Quiet Luxury Podcast: https://figandfarmathome.podbean.com/e/169/

In this episode, we welcome artist and tastemaker Josh Young. After living in Milan for six years, Josh returned to the U.S. and launched Josh Young Design House in 2017, gaining recognition for his distinctive art style and home designs. His work has appeared in major publications such as Architectural Digest, Elle Decor, and Vogue Italia. In his debut book, Artful Home, Josh takes us through his artistic journey, his homes, and his creative process for blending modern and classical elements. In our convo, Josh shares how his European experience shaped his design philosophy and offers fantastic tips for curating a stylish, balanced home. What You'll Hear On This Episode:   Josh's journey from a small town in Pennsylvania to studying art in Milan and how this experience influenced his design approach. His debut book, Artful Home, and how it explores five artistic principles: palette, texture, form, nostalgia, and layers. How the book process helped him crystallize the connection between his art and home decor. Josh's love of juxtaposing modern and classical elements. Why is it so difficult to pull off a neutral space, and what can we do about it?  Yes, even Josh has moments where his silver isn't perfectly polished too.  The evolution of Josh Young Design House and how social media played a pivotal role in his success. His love of antiques and how he incorporates them into his spaces in unexpected ways. How he styles rooms with a mix of classical pieces, modern touches, and neutral palettes. Tips for creating a home that feels both lived-in and elegant, with an emphasis on texture and layering. Mentioned: Ballard Designs Watch the Full Episode - Ballard Designs YouTube Josh Young | IG  Artful Home   Decorating Dilemma  Hi Amanda! Thank you for being a loyal listener! We loved diving into your primary bedroom refresh, and we have some fun ideas to help you elevate the space. Let's break it down step by step: Since you're keeping the pink chair and artwork, we suggest leaning into that pink as your accent color. Try incorporating pink into decorative pillows, drapes, and other textiles. We recommend using neutral tones for your bedding to keep things balanced and avoid overwhelming the space. A classic white bedding set with pink accents could help tie everything together without feeling too busy. For a fresh look, try layering textures in your bedding with different fabrics like linen or cotton. Keeping the palette neutral with subtle pink accents will create a serene yet stylish space. As for the drapes, consider using a light neutral with a hint of pink or blush undertones to complement the existing pink pieces. Since you want to replace your nightstands and avoid matching the dressers, look for options that offer storage but are lighter in tone or have a different texture. Painted nightstands or ones in a lighter wood could work well to contrast the darker dresser. Pair them with stylish lamps that fit your overall aesthetic—maybe incorporating more of that pink or even brass elements for a pop of elegance. We understand your husband wants to keep a fan, but you can opt for one without a light kit for a cleaner, less obtrusive look. Pair it with plenty of beautiful table or floor lamps to keep the space well-lit. The current TV placement does seem a bit top-heavy with the narrow dresser. Consider mounting the TV on the wall to free up space on the dresser for decorative items like a beautiful lamp or artwork. If wall-mounting isn't an option, switching the dresser with a wider, lower piece could help balance the space better. This will also make the room feel less cluttered and more intentional. We hope these tips spark some inspiration as you tackle your refresh! Happy decorating!

A deft use of color, emphasis on clean lines, and mix of bespoke and antique items are hallmarks of her aesthetic, yet no two projects are alike; Ariel believes every home should reflect its owner. Ariel established her firm in 2016, and has since been featured and profiled in Architectural Digest, Elle Decor, House Beautiful, Domino, Vogue, The Wall Street Journal, and New York Magazine, among others. Ariel has been recognized as one of House Beautiful's Next Wave Designers, an exclusive list of the top interior design talent in the country. Ariel has also received several prestigious industry awards, including House & Garden's “The List”, Architectural Digest's “Pro List” and Luxe Magazine's Gold List. Ariel has launched multiple capsule collections, including wallpaper lines with Chasing Paper and The Mural Source, accessories with One Kings Lane, and most recently, a lighting line with Mitzi. Ariel's first interior design book will debut with Rizzoli in Fall 2025.  Separate from her design work, Ariel helms her editorial and e-commerce site, Fenimore Lane, where she is Editor in Chief. She also hosts Fenimore Lane's popular design podcast, "Talk Shop", and leads Fenimore Lane's annual design summit at The Mayflower Inn & Spa. In addition to her work with Fenimore Lane, Ariel is a contributing writer to Vogue.com, Architectural Digest and Domino. Current residential projects range across the country, from Greenwich, CT, and Cape Cod, MA, to Palm Beach, FL, and Oyster Bay, NY, among others. Ariel lives in Westchester, NY, with her husband, two daughters, and dog, Charlie. https://www.arielokin.com/ https://www.instagram.com/arielokin/ https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/talk-shop-with-ariel-okin-a-fenimore-lane-production/id1713624140

Elise Loehnen is a writer, editor, and podcast host of Pulling the Thread. Ultimately, Elise is a seeker and synthesizer, braiding together wisdom traditions, cultural history, and a deep knowledge of healing modalities to unlock new ways to contextualize who we are and why we're here. She's also the author of the instant New York Times bestseller On Our Best Behavior: The Seven Deadly Sins and the Price Women Pay to Be Good. The book explores the ways patriarchy embeds itself in our consciousness. The Seven Deadly Sins—Sloth, Envy, Pride, Gluttony, Greed, Lust, Anger—reads like a checklist of what it means to be a "good" woman and offers a path forward, moving ourselves and each other toward freedom and balance. Elise is a frequent contributor to Oprah and has written for The New York Times, Elle Decor, Stylist, and more. She has co-written 12 books, including five New York Times Best Sellers. Previously, she was the chief content officer of goop, and co-hosted The goop Podcast and The goop Lab on Netflix. Before goop, Elise was the editorial projects director of Condé Nast Traveler. Before Traveler, she was the editor at large and ultimately deputy editor of Lucky Magazine, appearing regularly on Today, E!, Good Morning America, and The Early Show. She has a B.A. from Yale. In this episode, Nada sits down with Elise to learn what prompted her to write On Our Best Behavior and to unpack how women have contorted themselves to find a place in history. Elise shares anecdotes about how modesty was prioritized and impacted her life. She discusses the importance of women showing up together and gives us context for why collectivism is essential. This cultural therapist (recently coined at a conference and an appropriate title for Elise) is at once a researcher, teacher, student, and friend. Her ability to clearly articulate our cultural condition gives wings to our unnamed inklings and fragmented thoughts. Elise is currently reading The Origin of Satan by Elaine Pagels, Morality by Jonathon Sack, and Integral Psychology by Ken Wilber. You can find additional recommendations at Bookshop, or Goodreads.

We're excited to introduce you to Lindsay Silberman, a luxury lifestyle blogger and the founder of Hotel Lobby Candle, a home fragrance line inspired by the scents inside five-star hotels. In this episode, Lindsay shares a peek into her journey as a founder, how the marketing strategy for Hotel Lobby Candle has evolved over the years, and how the brand's community of candle super-fans have shaped and further driven brand development. About Lindsay + Hotel Lobby Candle, in her own words: I'm Lindsay, founder of Hotel Lobby Candle. I spent a decade writing and editing for magazines like Town & Country, Vogue, and Elle Decor (to date, I've traveled to 62 countries). Today, I apply that same reporter's approach to my lifestyle blog & Instagram account, where I share carefully-vetted product recommendations, beauty tips and travel advice to a community of nearly 200,000 people. I wanted to create a candle that transported people without ever having to leave home. It needed to be beautiful, smell incredible and, most importantly, be of the highest quality. Hotel Lobby Candle was inspired by the idea that it's entirely possible to bring the luxury hotel experience into your home in the form of a candle. Our candles are handmade in the USA with an all natural 100% soy wax and hand-painted glass vessels designed just for you. Full-sized candles are 9.75 oz and have a 65-hour burn time.

To the cult British interior and furniture designer Ilse Crawford, interiors too often take a backseat to architecture. Through her humanistic, systems-thinking, “Frame for Life” approach, however, Crawford has shown how interiors and architecture should instead be viewed on the same plane and, as she puts it on this episode of Time Sensitive, “walk hand in hand.” Widely known for creating indoor spaces that are notable in their tactility, warmth, and comfort—environments that incorporate, to use her phrase, “visceral materiality”—Crawford oversees her namesake London-based design studio, Studioilse, which she launched in 2003, and whose projects include the first Soho House members' club in New York, the Ett Hem hotel in Stockholm, and the Cathay Pacific lounges in Hong Kong. Crawford is also the founder of the department of Man and Wellbeing at the Design Academy Eindhoven, in the Netherlands, which she headed for two decades. Prior to her career as a designer, she was the celebrated founding editor of Elle Decoration U.K.On this episode, Crawford discusses her approach to crafting beautiful, highly original spaces that push against today's speedy, copy-paste, Instagram-moment world; her early career in media; and her personal definition of the word “slow.”Special thanks to our Season 9 presenting sponsor, L'École, School of Jewelry Arts.Show notes:[5:09] StudioIlse[7:25] A Frame for Life[58:32] Design Academy Eindhoven[7:25] Svenkst Tenn[7:25] Ett Hem[16:36] Jeanette Mix[1:02:51] Cathay Pacific[47:42] Elle Decoration[29:11] The Eyes of the Skin[33:52] Alvar Aalto[33:52] Paimio Sanatorium[33:52] Christopher Alexander[31:35] Sensual Home[35:24] Leonard Koren[35:46] Frida Escobedo[47:42] Architect's Journal[47:42] The World of Interiors[47:42] Min Hogg[52:48] Donna Karan[54:04] Soho House[54:04] Babington House[1:00:08] Home Is Where the Heart Is?

We welcome Los Angeles based interior designer and writer David Netto this week. David's work has been featured in Vogue, Elle Decor, Architectural Digest, House Beautiful, and many more. David is on the AD100 list, and has also written about the history of architecture and ensign for the Wall Street Journal and New York Times Style Magazine and is now a contributing editor for Town and Country. In our conversation, we talk with David about his inspiration for design, and his gorgeous new self-titled book. David shares more about how he creates a furniture plan, his love of the dramatic in design, and he shares a few practical tips for creating elegance in your home.   What You'll Hear On This Episode: David's father owned the historic fabric house, Cowtan & Tout.  From an early age, David had an appetite and appreciation for theater in decor, and combining the modern with antique.  How and why a slightly unfinished look can be elegant.  Using chairs like chess pieces in design.  A few of David's other versatile tools to make rooms like artsy, dramatic and bohemian.  How a cooking star influenced David's self-titled book.  Storytelling is the foundation of good decorating.  How David starts creating a furniture plan.  Afraid of a beautiful chocolate brown wall? Don't be!  What David looks for when choosing fabric or upholstery.  East vs. West coast design.  The importance of having a team of greatly skilled people who can play up to your own strengths.  Mentioned:  Ballard Designs David Netto Design  David Netto IG  David Netto monograph  Decorating Dilemma:  Thank you for writing in, Rachel! First, David is going to dream. In a world where construction is possible, we would cut that window straight ahead down to the floor and turn it into a French window that has a railing. In reality though, David would demolish the bookcases on the left and right, and retain them just at the end.  He would invest in four clipped bookcase lights (there's a store in London that he loves for this) and some nice paint. Also, David would paint the floor with high gloss paint! Something to keep in mind and put on your list, if you agree!

Steph interviews Elise Loehnen, the author of the instant New York Times bestseller On Our Best Behavior and host of  Pulling the Thread, a podcast focused on pulling apart the stories we tell about who we are—and then putting those threads back together. Steph and Elise discuss the ways patriarchy impacts how women see themselves and what they police in each other. They discuss how the seven deadly sins impacts moms. Elise shares how the fear of sloth, gluttony, and envy leads to burnout, lack of confidence, feeling guilty about rest, and our relationship with our bodies before,during, and after pregnancy. We begin to dismantle these negative beliefs and thought patterns to help moms feel more freedom and joy in motherhood. Topics Discussed: Ways we subconsciously hide parts of ourselves. How to lean into using your voice and saying what you mean. Ways social media impacts motherhood. How to break free of the belief that you're not doing enough. Navigating postpartum body image and envy.

Listen to today's episode on our website Elise Loehnen is a writer, editor, and podcast host who lives in Los Angeles with her husband, Rob, and their two sons, Max and Sam. She is the host of Pulling the Thread, a podcast focused on pulling apart the stories we tell about who we are—and then putting those threads back together. Ultimately Elise is a seeker and synthesizer, braiding together wisdom traditions, cultural history, and a deep knowledge of healing modalities to unlock new ways to contextualize who we are and why we're here. She's also the author of the instant New York Times bestseller On Our Best Behavior: The Seven Deadly Sins and the Price Women Pay to Be Good (Dial Press/PRH). The book weaves together history, memoir, and cultural criticism to explore the ways patriarchy lands in the bodies of women and embeds itself in our consciousness—and what we then police in ourselves and in each other. Regardless of our religious provenance, the self-denial implicit in each of the Seven Deadly Sins—Sloth, Envy, Pride, Gluttony, Greed, Lust, Anger—reads like a checklist of what it means to be a “good” woman. With awareness, we can begin to recognize these patterns of self-restriction, break the story, and move ourselves and each other toward freedom and balance. Elise is a frequent contributor to Oprah, and has written for The New York Times, Elle Decor, Stylist, and more.
