And you want to create one on your own, without having to hire a designer, breaking the bank, or hurting the planet.

  • A different home decor podcast

    I’ve been listening to the podcast for quite a while. Zandra is a thoughtful and interesting host and the information is valuable and different. I especially liked the episode with Professor Annetta Grant. I don’t think there’s anything else like it. It was thought-provoking.

  • Exactly what I was looking for

    I'm wanting to enrich my knowledge of interior decorating and have been trying to find podcasts to help me with that, and this is the best one I've found so far! The sound quality alone is a huge plus, but of course the best part is her insight. She presents information in a clear but interesting way. I learn something really valuable every episode.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Buying Art, Simplified with Liz Lidgett
Q: What is a practical first step for someone starting a collection?
Start by identifying a few pieces that evoke a strong emotional reaction, visit galleries often, sign up for artist mailing lists, and consider a long-term plan that expands the collection gradually rather than buying on impulse.
Buying Art, Simplified with Liz Lidgett
Q: What should a newbie understand about pricing and value in art?
Education about the artist's process and career trajectory helps buyers understand value; pricing can depend on size, medium, artist reputation, and show history, and galleries increasingly publish price progressions to build trust.
Buying Art, Simplified with Liz Lidgett
Q: How do you help someone figure out what they like?
The host and guest discuss starting with emotion and conversation, exploring artist background, mediums, and the story behind the work, then narrowing down through guided choices rather than overwhelming the buyer with options.
Old Bones + Modern Soul: How Jo Berryman Honors History with Bold, Irreverent Choices
Q: How do you balance old and new in a way that feels cohesive across spaces?
By keeping a consistent material palette—natural stones, brass, wood—and by letting the architectural skeletons (like window openings) guide the flow, while applying modern, lighter fixtures and art to provide contrast without competing with the historic bones.
Old Bones + Modern Soul: How Jo Berryman Honors History with Bold, Irreverent Choices
Q: Tell us about the kitchen transformation and how you preserved the original elements.
The original mullion windows stayed intact and the team added a miniature wave-edge marble detail as a window lip to echo the landscape; they also used a Bauhaus-inspired copper hood with a sculptural presence and integrated a brass shishugiban finish, which is a resin mold finished to resemble charred wood for durability and warmth.
