New interiors podcast by Jono Fleming & Kerri-Ann Jones

The creation of former magazine style editors Jono Fleming (Inside Out) and Kerrie-Ann Jones (Real Living), House of Style is a brand-new podcast pitched at Aussie design lovers. Featuring interviews with respected Australian brands and interior design industry figures, the first season is comprised of eight episodes and it launched today.

“As editorial stylists, we were fortunate to get a sneak peek behind the scenes for many furniture and homewares brands, and design projects. We heard so many interesting stories and details about their products, journey and creative process. We always walked away feeling inspired about their story,” says Kerrie-Ann.

Upcoming interview subjects include a ceramics legend, a rural success story built by an Instagram maven (Jumbled perhaps?), Australian interior design royalty, one of Australia’s leading florists and a bedding brand known for their colour and pattern (surely Kip & Co?) plus one of the judges from The Block.

Dropping every Tuesday, the eight-part series will feature interviews with prominent Australian interior brands, artists, makers and industry personalities. Jono and Kerrie-Ann will chat with them about what it takes to really shine in today’s Aussie interiors landscape.

“We thought a podcast was a great platform to share all these inspiring stories. It’s been a fun process, we can’t wait to share who we’ve been chatting with,” says Jono who revealed that the first episode features a chat with Nick and Renee Garnham of Jardan, who will explore their humble beginnings and dedication to remaining Australian designed and made.

“Jardan is one of our favourite brands, so to be able to peek behind the curtain and hear how they come up with their ideas and what inspires them was really special. It adds an extra layer of detail to what we already know about the brand in a way we hadn’t experienced before,” says Jono.

It’s been about eight weeks since we started our much anticipated kitchen reno and it’s near as damn it finished. Yes! We’ve done a photoshoot and will be sharing it with you very soon. In the meantime, I thought it would be fun for my husband Damian to interview me about the process and what we have done in this week’s podcast!

Podcast episode 2: financing your reno dreams

I’m sure I’m not the only homeowner with a reno wish list as long as my arm! But with property prices as they are, more than ever, it can be really hard to afford to do everything you want to, to create your dream home. Making those mortgage payments can be tough enough!

I sat down with Jess Aloi from our partner, Latitude Financial Services, about different ways to fund your dreams! We chat about our own renos, budgeting and planning sensibly, having a contingency fund and borrowing within your means.

Introducing the new Interiors Addict podcast!

We’ve been wanting to launch a podcast for some time and today we’re delighted to share our very first episode! I’m so pleased with the content of this first one, where I interview James Treble from Ten’s The Living Room and Andrew Stenos, managing director of Sydney’s Integriti Bathrooms. You’ll learn everything you ever wanted to know about renovating bathrooms: what’s involved, how much it costs, why it costs that much, how to do a cosmetic upgrade on a budget, the biggest trends and more.

The idea behind the podcast series is for me to sit down and have a relaxed chat with the many personalities and experts we’ve been working with for years, giving you access to their amazing knowledge on a variety of topics which interiors addicts will love and learn from.

I renovated my first bathroom (with Integriti Bathrooms, which is how I know they know their stuff!) last year and it was a massive learning curve and eye opener. And while the actual reno process isn’t always fun (it’s long, noisy, dusty and expensive) I can’t tell you just how worth it it is when you have your brand new bathroom at the end. Those of you who have created your dream bathroom will agree, I’m sure!

James Treble is well qualified to comment on bathrooms too. His backgrounds in both design and real estate mean he knows what works practically, what looks good and what adds value to a home. He’s also a regular visitor to European trade fairs where he brings back knowledge on the latest trends in furniture, bathrooms and tiles to share with an Australian audience. Plus, he likes a chat!

I really hope you enjoy the podcast and would love to know who you’d like me to have a chat with next and on what topics! Feel free to comment below. Please like and share the podcast too!

This episode is around half an hour. Why not listen on your way to or from work?
