The Interior Lovers
Hosted by interior stylist Sam Grigg and interior designer Naomi Scott-Dunne, we discuss anything and everything to do with the home and interiors. We don't always agree on what we like, but are both passionate about good design and helping people to create uniquely creative homes. With a focus on using colour, pattern and a mix and match approach when it comes to designing your home your way. And the fun thing is, that Sam and Naomi have never even met - with Sam living in the UK and Naomi in Denmark.

Design Quibbles...AKA what Naomi can't stand.
In this episode we affirm some more of our pet peeves/design quibbles: including (but certainly not limited to) … counterfeit items: Hermès blankets, unfinished/undressed window, eyelet top curtains, metal venetian blinds, UPVC plantation blinds, Fortnum & Mason hampers!
Sam doesn’t like the utilitarian look – which is exactly what Naomi’s kitchen is, so we laugh a lot about that and also debate microwaves! We also touch on the shock and awe element of mixing styles and patterns and the maximalist trend. Knock-off designs are also discussed – particularly the iconic Martinique banana leaf wallpaper by CW Stockwell. Glass mosaic splashbacks (backsplashes? Or credence!) … we talk French interior design trends (or not!).
Finally, we examine whether there is a need for large over-sized extractor fans, other options are out there – or are they just a status symbol?
If you have some Design Quibbles, then do send them over to us and we’d love to discuss them in a future episode.
