• 1. The importance of educating clients about the benefits of natural stone, such as its durability and ability to be refinished. 
   
• 2. Gemma also encourages designers to spend time with tradespeople to learn more about materials and techniques, and to build strong relationships with reliable tradespeople. 
   
• 3. Gemma and Beth also talk about the need for designers to be be confident in their knowledge and not be afraid to ask questions or challenge narratives that may not be accurate.
