Dear Alice | Interior Design LaunchPod Media

Our latest podcast is all about backsplashes and wall treatments. We were asked about whether a grass wallpaper would make a good backsplash in a kitchen, to which we reply that it would not be as water could damage it. Zellige Cle tile is an excellent option as it will provide your home with a more authentic, natural look and won’t be ruined when it gets wet. We recommend going on a date through a slab yard to get inspired and just enjoy the beauty of all the natural designs you will see there.

“If you go on and just look at tile layouts, you’ll see a myriad of options. So consider something that you haven’t seen before when you’re trying to figure out what you want to do. That’s kind of how we navigate tile.” 6:46

In this episode we discuss how to create a great pillow story. A pillow story is a combination of pillows that you put on your sofa or sectional in conjunction with what you also put on your chairs, such as what is the formula to use, what you’re going to be looking for, and what not to buy. We discuss what sizes, tones, and types of pillows you should have in your living spaces, but also what you should not have and the mistake many people make when buying a new couch.

“I recently have liked having matching pillows. I’ve got 24 inch pillows in the corners, and then in the front are 22 inch, and it’s like twins. It just looks really edited right now, that’s my vibe. I mix it up sometimes, like my living room I have 3 pillows that are different. They all have the same tones in them.” 7:03

There are various different extra spaces found in homes, such as the attic, side rooms, closets, and more, which is what we will be talking about today. Sue tells about when she lived in an attic above her parents and the fun aspects and perks of using vaulted ceilings. We discuss the various options you can consider when designing a home and how most people don’t think to add the fun little spaces that can be used by the kids, like a reading nook, or a music room. We talk about having different closets dedicated to one thing such as candles, or linens, and the benefits that come with having a space specifically for one thing. Bunk rooms and game rooms are perfect to help keep your kids entertained, especially when they bring over their friends or cousins to play and have sleepovers. We also discuss creating a gym, library, prayer room, and massage room for your own luxury.

“It’s just so magical to live in those spaces and to occupy those. Anytime you have a space in your home with a vault, you feel kind of like you’re in a tree house. It becomes a magical story book and you should absolutely do something with those spaces, be it for your children–They will love being up there.” 3:29
