In this episode, host Rachel Larraine shares a replay of Episode 14, in which she discusses small living & sustainable design with Curtis and Christina Micklish. Because Rachel’s podcast is new to our collection, I want to share this episode.
Rachel posted it again because of the important discussion she likes to have around sustainability. In the podcast, they talk about how to make small spaces both beautiful and functional and about the specific choices we can make when building or remodeling homes to reduce our overall footprint and protect our environment.

The Interior Design Business Podcast - How To Build A Good Relationship With Your Suppliers - 38 min
Interior designers are a bit like ‘piggy in the middle’. They must be adept at managing client relationships while also managing their supply chains in order to finish on time and deliver the best possible projects.
So, how can designers find and retain professional and reliable suppliers? How can they ensure they get early warning when things are going wrong? And is it possible to build a dream supplier team that will last forever?
To help us answer these important questions and more, hosts Jeff Hayward and Susie Rumbold are joined today by Ed O’Donnell from Angel O’Donnell and BIID Register Interior Designer, Naomi Astley Clarke.

In today’s episode, host LuAnn Nigara is chatting with Judy Brower Fancher, of Brower, Miller & Cole Art Consulting. Judy is certified in interior design, and while she isn’t currently working as one, she knows that most interior designers are not trained, nor confident, in selecting art for their clients. Judy is here to help my audience understand that buying those color Xeroxes is never the answer, and some tangible tips for those unfamiliar with the art world.

[9:17] Just explains how the budget for art should be separate from the design budget.
