Enjoy today's episode with Erin Donahue Tice. Erin Donahue Tice is a self-taught abstract artist based in Austin, Texas creating original paintings for inspired collectors across the country. In 2023 she launched her debut collection of textiles and wallpaper. Her work has been featured in House Beautiful, Better Homes & Gardens, Traditional Home, Southern Home and Luxe Magazine. Following a 12-year career in corporate PR, Erin started painting after the birth of her second son as both a creative and therapeutic outlet. Erin's medium of choice is acrylics but she also experiments with mixed mediums. She is drawn to the object nature of abstract art and loves the free-flowing experience of creating something unexpected. From far away, her canvases appear to have sharp lines, yet upon closer inspection, the viewer discovers delicate marks and subtle shadows that gives each piece interest. There is almost always an undercurrent of both black and white within Erin's pieces, which offers balance amid a mostly colorful visual experience. And every now and then, color is stripped completely to offer a stripped-down neutral palette and sense of calmness, reflective of the more serene experiences in my life. Erin challenges herself by playing around with different elements, from layering paper, foam and cardboard onto canvases, to using acrylics, gouache, oil pastels, markers and charcoal to bring her pieces to life. She especially loves the process of marrying interior design with art and is passionate about working hand-in-hand with designers and clients alike to create a statement. Erin also draws inspiration from her "happy place," The Hamptons, where she has spent her summers since 2010. She resides in Austin, TX with her husband Bill and their three little boys, William, George and Andrew. www.erindonahuetice.com Her Art I️nstagram:  www.instagram.com/erindonahueticeart Her Coaching I️nstagram:  www.instagram.com/artistmarketingmagic Join the Substack.

Bringing back an early Nirvana Sisters episode to enjoy over the american Thanksgiving holiday. Many will be visiting family and friends so what better way to relax and listen to top designer Zoe Feldman sharing ideas for a home that nurtures your well-being.  Amy and Katie sit down with interior designer Zoe Feldman to get her tips on creating a cozy, happy and inspiring home. Zoe's advice is accessible for all and will quickly transform your space. The three discuss ways to reduce your environmental footprint when decorating and how Zoe's design firm gives back by donating her consultation fee to charity. Amy reviews one of Katie's all time favorite products and stay till the end to hear all three share how they maintain their daily Nirvana.Zoe Feldman:Zoe Feldman's signature, seamless blend of modern and classic is rooted as much in her upbringing as it is in her early design training. Raised in a mid-century modern home by art and furniture collectors and gallerists, Zoe honed her clean-lined instincts at Parsons School of Design in New York. But she credits the subsequent years working under the tutelage of AD100 designer Alexa Hampton at the iconic Manhattan-based firm Mark Hampton, Inc, for opening her eyes to the benefits of a just-so, traditional approach.  Since setting up her own practice in 2004, Zoe's been bringing her unique take on modernized classicism to homes across the country, and her work has been featured in publications including Elle Decor, House Beautiful, and Domino. In 2020, she was named one of the Top 10 ‘New Trads' by Traditional Home magazine, and ‘Best Boutique Interior Design Firm' by Home & Design magazine. Zoe draws on her love of the practical, the playful, and the deeply personal to create spaces that are as inviting and soulful as they are sophisticated.Follow @zoefeldmandesign on IG Find Zoe at Zoe Feldman Design Find us at www.nirvanasisters.comFollow us @nirvanasisters on InstagramSay hi at hello@nirvanasisters.comPlease subscribe, rate, review and share

We are back with our special series highlighting the FLOWER magazine showhouse here in Atlanta, and the fun continues with acclaimed designer Barry Dixon. His work can be found all over the world, and on the pages of your favorite magazines like House Beautiful, Traditional Home and of course, Flower magazine. Barry talks about designing for all five senses, telling the story of a space from beginning to end, and his choice of textiles, colors, and books in the beautifully inspiring library. Ballard Designs is proud to be one of the sponsors of the house, and we are so excited to share all the gorgeous spaces with you. If you'd like to visit the house in person you can purchase tickets here, and also follow along with the podcast series whether you can see it in person or not! What You'll Hear on This Episode: Barry talks about the foundation of the library, and the little bit of Hollywood Regency appeal to the house. The views of the exterior are such an important part of the beauty of any interior. Some masculine ways to bring in florals. Barry talks about his curation of the books in the library and the intention behind the visual cues on the shelves. What advice would Barry give to people who are trying to blend styles or work with someone who doesn't have their same opinion on design? A beautiful truth: you're never alone in a room that speaks to you. How do you balance the personalities in your home (aka ones that love taxidermy and action figures)? How design is like writing a story, and it's important to tell the story from beginning to end. Barry's love of the extreme in design in every way, including location, architecture, and style. Mentioned in This Episode: Barry Dixon Barry Dixon's Books Decorating Dilemma: Thank you for writing in! First, Barry has some great thoughts and advice for you. The buffet always traditionally belonged in a dining room, so you can keep that and you can also keep the chairs you have. Maybe you want to paint those Hepa white chairs a really pretty French Gray from Farrow & Ball so they look fresh. Mix that with the green buffet, and it leaves your table to be brown, with some beautiful yellows and grays to add a sorbet of color. Let's buy a really beautiful paper with a pattern that goes with the Tudor or Arts and Crafts style - Barry has some good suggestions for ones from the 1800s. The Benjamin Moore color can be brought in as the trim color for the windows, baseboards, and door casings. Since you are just investing in the paper, maybe you can even do a coordinating pattern for your seat cushions on those chairs. This ties everything together in one grand statement. Please send us after photos so we can see your final choices!

While Joann was on vacation, I spoke with today's guest, acclaimed photographer and longtime friend, Emily Followill. Over the last 25 years, Emily has developed an incredible portfolio of work where she captures iconic images that tell the stories of people, places, and beautiful spaces. We talk about her early work and what a typical day looks like. We discuss the importance of hiring professional photographers and whether or not you should hire a stylist for your photoshoots. Listen in as Emily gives some great styling advice and shares her most memorable shoots. IN THIS EPISODE:  [03:20] Background on Emily's photography business and a day in her life.  [10:00] The importance of hiring a professional photographer.  [13:16] Deciding to hire a stylist or not hire a stylist.  [17:50] Having an end goal in mind when scheduling photoshoots.  [20:30] Styling advice.  [23:10] Most memorable photo shoot and bucket list items. KEY TAKEAWAYS: We cannot emphasize enough the importance of investing in professional photography.  A stylist is going to view a space like a photographer - with a meticulous eye for editing and knowing what makes a good shot. They also know what editors are looking for and can help take your space and photography to the next level.  Negative space isn't always negative. It's nice to have that balance and every single space doesn't have to be filled.

Today we welcome Dallas-based interior designer Meredith Ellis to the show. Meredith has over two decades of experience in the industry and specializes in creating soulful, layered homes that are sophisticated yet livable. Her career began while she worked under the legendary Bunny Williams in NYC before moving west to hone her skills with internationally renowned designer Michael Smith. Meredith is also the founder of JAMES showroom featuring fabric, wallpaper, furniture, lighting, and carpets for Texas and the South. Her work has been featured in Architectural Digest, Traditional Home, Better Homes and Gardens, Southern Living, and The LA Times. We dive into Meredith's “seamless” use of fabrics with patterns, colors, and textures and tips and tricks for how (and where) to use them! What You'll Hear on This Episode: How did Meredith start a career in design? What tips & tricks did Meredith learn from working for legendary designers? Where should we begin with fabrics? What are the best fabrics for tufting? What patterns does Meredith gravitate to for sofas, drapes, and wallpapers, respectively? All about how to use fabric for lampshades. Does Meredith have tips for making bold vs. subtle decisions with patterns? How Meredith was able to use fabric in a modern way for the Kips Bay Room. When does Meredith like to use a mural wallpaper? How to bring fabric with textures and patterns into bedding. What's the best way to familiarize yourself with fabrics before choosing? Where does Meredith draw inspiration and influence? What antique malls and dealers does Meredith love? Decorating Dilemma: Hi Kristen, Your house has such classic and beautiful bones. I think the biggest bang for your buck is going to be painting and adding some color. I would draw color from the living room maybe from the Oriental rug; I would probably use sage or gray blues. Drawing shades from nature is a great way to get comfortable adding color. A real show stopper is just painting your walls, trim, and window casings. If you are just going to paint the dining room, I would do maybe a soft gray-blue and then your millwork a little darker to give some depth. On the ceiling, I would lighten up that color by half. If you need storage I would paint that breakfront a pretty high gloss color; either a contrast like black or dark dark green. You could also do wallpaper in the back of the cabinets and display the china there. In terms of the drapery, I don't think you have to do the same fabric in both of the rooms. You can do one as a pattern (in the dining room) and maybe one a little more tame (in the living room). Just have them relate on some level, but they definitely don't have to be the same. One of the other things you could do is use some bold art as a great statement piece; maybe something with some color. Since you're on a budget you could try places like Facebook Marketplace, antique malls, Chairish, or 1st Dibs. On the rug, it depends on how bold you go with art, but it definitely needs to be a low pile so you can move chairs easily in and out. You could do sisal but I would not do another Oriental since that's in your living room. Maybe a pretty stripe, diamond, or another geometric pattern. When you get to the point that your budget allows it, I would do some pretty upholstered chairs for the dining room–something that's really durable especially if you have kids. Think performance fabric or pattern. Otherwise, just paint the window frames. I also love painting doors a contrast color, so if you want you can paint the french doors either a fun color or go darker than whatever you choose for the millwork. But I really think we gotta get some green in there. A little paint can really make such an impact! This house has such great bones…good luck and please send us some pics!

Decorating Dilemma  Hi Hillary, I can identify with this right now! My advice is to arrange things as best as you can and hang up some artwork even though they aren't quite right; just enough to make it feel like home. My house is a mess right now, so I'm trying to live each day one at a time. I'm bringing in simple things like branches, flowers, candles, and good music and meals. Focus on experiences and bringing the outside! It's so hard and we get it! It's definitely a mental exercise in patience when you can't quite make the space the way you want it, but find the joy where you can.

The Value of High Style The Value of High Style is where we talk to a top designer and a top art collector, two men who make their living knowing the difference between good and great, as we try and understand the relationship of great design with real estate.  John Barman has been honored as one of the AD100 by Architectural Digest, one of “The City's Best 100 Architects and Designers” by New York Magazine, and his work has been featured in the New York Times, Esquire, Interior Design, Traditional Home, and W, among other publications. His renowned clientele includes Wynton Marsalis, George Stephanopoulos and Alexandra Wentworth, Leonard and Allison Stern, Bryant Gumbel, Stone Phillips, Neil Simon, and Larry Silverstein. Barman was born and raised in New York City, and graduated from the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania before turning to interior design and founding his eponymous firm. Our second guest, Richard Grossman, is best known as the President of Brown Harris Stevens where he manages all of the regional offices. What most people don't know about Richard is that he is a collector and expert in the subjects of midcentury modern architecture, contemporary and midcentury modern furniture and contemporary art at the very highest levels. We've all heard of the mythical Ferrari in the barn stories. Richard lives that myth. He and his husband Adam discovered a long- abandoned and crumbling apartment in the famed midcentury-modern Butterfield House, purchased it and undertook an extensive 2-year restoration. He has promised to give us a glimpse of the apartment during the show. What I want to know from Richard is where is the line between doing it for the passion versus making a wise investment? What is the value of a name brand architect or a name-brand designer? How has that changed? We want to understand Richard's process of choosing architects and designers, what went right, and what can we learn from his experience. Lastly, I want to point out a recent story in the Wall Street Journal that quotes Richard entitled, Custom Art is Helping High-End Homeowners Paint a Clearer Picture where he is quoted as saying, “Art by a well-known artist can also lend a cachet to the property, which is particularly important in higher-end listings . . . Walking into a home with high ceilings and a 9-foot high Christopher Wool painting in the foyer is very dramatic—and it certainly says someone successful lives here. That statement resonates with high-end buyers,” said Mr. Grossman. 

This week on the show we have 4 of the most talented interior designers in the greater New York area. I mean really top-drawer talent. We want to know from the very best designers about how they are thinking about the market for 2021. Let's discuss the intersection of designers and realtors, architects, builders and buyers.  How can top designers and real estate professionals help one another where it is mutually beneficial?Sometimes realtors need fast design, just enough style in order to sell it. So, how is staging different from styling?What room usually bothers the clients most? How can the designers help?Let's talk about design as a good investment. Is great design measurable? I see well-designed houses selling for 50% more than Zillow says its worth. Let's talk interior design as investment.Let's talk about the amateurs. I suspect that a lot of us try and save money and simply do it ourselves, copying the work of great designers. What separates the very best in the business from the amateurs?How has the business changed since Covid? What is the silver lining? This week's show is Lisa Ben-Isvy's idea and she'll be co-hosting with us. Lisa is the former publisher of New York Spaces and now has her own business connecting top interior designers, architects & realtors.John Barman - John Barman has been honored as one of the AD100 by Architectural Digest, one of “The City's Best 100 Architects and Designers” by New York Magazine, and his work has been featured in the New York Times, Esquire, Interior Design, Traditional Home, and W, among other publications.
