    Why Design Matters More Than Ever with Jaclyn Isaac

    In this episode, we're recording live from KBIS — the Kitchen Bath Industry Show — for a conversation that goes far beyond trends and tile selections. I sat down with the incredibly talented Jaclyn Isaac, founder and creative director of Dani Douglas Design, to talk about something much deeper: why the spaces we live in matter now more than ever. We dive into how our homes have become our safe haven in an increasingly loud and chaotic world, how to design spaces that truly reflect who you are, and why the most important question a designer can ask isn't about style — it's about feeling. Jaclyn also shares her unique process for uncovering what clients really need, how she balances modern technology with warmth and soul, and why vintage and antique pieces are making a powerful comeback in the age of AI. This one is full of heart, honesty, and real insights whether you're a design lover, a homeowner, or a fellow creative. 📥 Connect with Manuella @manuellamoreirainteriors and Jaclyn @donidouglas_design on Instagram.

    Why Travel Teaches You More About Design Than Trends Ever Will

    In this episode of Design Unscripted, interior designer Manuella Moreira explores how stepping outside your routine and experiencing new places can sharpen your design eye in ways trends never will. Recorded after Paris Design Week, Manuella shares how moving through the city, observing how locals live, and immersing herself in art, architecture, and everyday moments shifted her perspective on intentional design. From wandering residential neighborhoods and people-watching at cafés to experiencing Monet’s Water Lilies at the Musée de l’Orangerie, this episode is a reminder that great design starts with feeling. Manuella also breaks down the key interior design trends she noticed in Paris, including warmer color palettes, rich textures, sculptural forms, and layered patterns, and explains how to use trends as a supporting layer rather than the foundation of your space. Whether you’re a designer, design enthusiast, or simply looking to create a more meaningful home, this episode will encourage you to slow down, stay curious, and design from experience, not autopilot. Topics covered: How travel influences personal design tasteWhy observation is a powerful design toolDesigning from feeling, not just aestheticsKey interior design trends from Paris Design WeekHow to apply travel inspiration to your own homeFollow along for more design inspiration: Follow Manuella on Instagram and TikTok for behind-the-scenes moments, design insights, and travel inspiration, and subscribe on YouTube to watch full podcast episodes, trend breakdowns, and visual walkthroughs.
