Lawrence Yun, chief economist at the National Association of REALTORS®, shares an in-depth look at today's housing market.

In this episode, I sit down with interior designer Jade Joyner, co-founder of the firm Metal + Petal, to talk about how she approaches design with intention, balance, and a strong point of view. Jade is the opposite of a formulaic designer—she's not interested in trends, matching sets, or playing it safe. Instead, she leans into mixing materials, layering stories, and building spaces that reflect the people who live in them.We go deep into two of her residential projects, walking through how she makes decisions around shape, material, and layout—and how she balances aesthetics with real-life function (like designing for a family with five kids). We also get into what she calls "connective tissue"—the subtle moves that make rooms flow together without feeling matchy or over-designed.This conversation is a behind-the-scenes look at the kind of thought, care, and creative problem-solving that goes into designing spaces that feel both grounded and alive. If you've ever wondered how to pull off a mix—or how to avoid the dreaded “blanket look”—Jade has some smart, candid advice you won't want to miss. Want to finally define your style?

What if the most ignored room in your project is quietly dragging down the whole design? Today, I'm with Jennifer Q. Williams of St. Louis Closet Company to reveal why closets, yes, closets, are one of the most underestimated elements in all of residential design. So if you're creating a luxury home or updating a modest space, your clients' daily routines and resale values are being shaped by what's behind those closet doors. If you've been sleepwalking past the wire racks and sliding doors, this episode will wake you up fast. Jennifer breaks down the functional and emotional impact of a well-designed closet, how it can save time, reduce stress, and even increase a home's market value. We dig into the common oversights made by designers and architects alike, from door swings to ceiling height, and how getting these wrong can silently sabotage the client experience. You'll also hear why collaborating with a custom closet pro early in the design process isn't just nice to have, it's a smart, brand-elevating move. You'll learn: ✅ Why poor closet design quietly adds stress to your client's daily life ✅ What interior designers and architects regularly overlook (and regret) ✅ How to collaborate with closet experts to elevate your designs ✅ The surprising ROI of a custom closet, and why it matters at resale If you're an interior designer looking to create truly high-end homes with functional beauty in every corner, this is the episode that's going to help you get there. Listen now and start designing with every square inch in mind.   (00:00) Why closets are always the afterthought in design. (02:24) Jennifer's journey into the custom closet industry. (06:12) How an organized closet impacts your day and mindset. (09:22) What interior designers and architects usually overlook. (17:48) Why custom closets are more accessible and valuable than clients think. (25:01) How to vet and collaborate with a local closet company.   About Jennifer Q. Williams Jennifer Q. Williams is the founder and owner of St. Louis Closet Company, the region's first locally owned, floor-based custom closet business. With over three decades in the industry, Jennifer has built a reputation for blending high-end organization with practical everyday use, transforming even the most neglected storage spaces into stunning, functional showpieces. A proud St. Louis native and entrepreneur, she's as passionate about her community as she is about organization, supporting numerous local charities and small business initiatives. Her signature? Turning chaotic closets into calm, curated spaces that improve daily life and property value. Website Instagram: @stlouisclosetco  

In this episode, I talk with Whitney English—author, designer, and (as I like to call her) my organizational better half. Her new book, Organize First, Decorate Second, isn't your typical organizing manual. It's thoughtful, deeply personal, and grounded in real life—something I immediately connected with.We explore the idea that our homes are not just reflections of who we are, but tools that help shape us. Whitney shares why she prefers the word edit over declutter, how tension (not balance) is her guiding principle, and why you should think twice before buying drawer dividers. We also get into how new urbanism and walkable cities inspired her approach to home design, why she gave up on making her bed, and how organization can actually free up space for beauty and joy—not get in the way of it.If you've ever struggled with keeping things tidy, if you love your stuff but want it to serve you better, or if you just want permission to let go of what's not working, this conversation will feel like a deep breath.

Most people spend more time planning their wedding than the home they'll live in for decades, and that's a costly mistake.Join me while I break down the critical six-month design development phase that should happen before breaking ground on your new construction or major renovation. As the founder of Holistic Homes, I've seen countless projects go sideways because homeowners rushed through this crucial planning period and I don't want that to happen to you.The six-month timeline includes specific milestones and I'm taking out all the guess work by going through the specifics of each month.month one focuses on floor plan development and pre-planning checklistsmonth two refines the floor plan and exterior elevationsmonth three dials in the building enclosure and material selectionsmonth four involves engineers and architectural detailsmonth five integrates your contractor into the processmonth six finalizes the construction document set and bidding.Each phase builds upon the previous one, creating a comprehensive roadmap for your project. Most importantly, I explain why documentation is everything in construction. If your expectations aren't clearly specified in plans, material selections, and contracts, they'll likely be forgotten during the building process.Connect with Christine!

When I first discovered Ros Byam Shaw's writing, I felt like I'd found someone who truly saw homes the way I did — not as stage sets or style statements, but as deeply personal spaces layered with time, memory, and quiet beauty. In this episode, I get to speak with Ros Byam Shaw about her work as a writer and her newest book, “ Perfect English, Small and Beautiful”, her longtime collaboration with photographer Jan Baldwin, and what she's learned from years of stepping inside some of the most thoughtful homes in Britain.We talk about the charm of unshowy interiors, why rooms don't need to shout to be compelling, and how trends often miss the point. Ros shares stories from her time at World of Interiors, what makes a home feel lived-in and loved, and why it's perfectly fine — even wonderful — not to have a “celebrity home.”This conversation felt like a deep exhale. I hope it reminds you, as it reminded me, that personal style isn't about impressing anyone — it's about making a space that feels like you. Want to finally define your style?

As a roofing professional...That endorsement carries weight, for homeowners facing similar issues.The conversation shifts to the hottest home design trends for 2025, revealing a dramatic pivot from the ubiquitous white farmhouse aesthetic to bold, all-black exteriors. While this monochromatic look might seem extreme, the hosts explore how texture differences between materials create visual interest, with gray emerging as an attractive middle-ground option that prevents homes from looking cookie-cutter.Flooring choices take center stage as Donnie and his co-host compare pre-finished engineered hardwood versus luxury vinyl plank (LVP), offering practical insights about durability, feel, and cost. This leads to a thoughtful discussion about how our living spaces are evolving, with traditional dining rooms giving way to expanded kitchen islands that accommodate whole families and reflect our more casual entertaining style.The all-electric home trend continues to gain momentum, with at least one in four new homes now fully electric.

Dee is curious why I am recommending a curved mirror for her entry way table and the concept of contrast and soft lines is introduced.
