In today’s episode I’m talking to the wonderful Alex Walls – owner and general manager of A&C Homestore. For many of us, Alex first came to our attention when she appeared on The Block NZ in 2014 with her husband Corban. For avid watchers you will remember that Alex and Corban won that year while they completely nailed the show from a design perspective and were super generous when they won, giving away a portion of their winnings to one of the other teams who didn’t have a great result.

When The Block finished Alex and Corban launched A&C Homestore after they struggled to find affordable and locally accessible furniture and homewares that truly reflected their own style and character. What began as an online store and a pop-up shop in Takapuna has since grown to include three Auckland stores in Birkenhead, Mt Eden and Orakei.

In this episode you will hear how Alex started her career in fashion retail and then turned a reality TV experience and a strong eye for design into three growing retail stores and a homewares & lifestyle brand. And she's done it all while having two babies and a major new home build. I'd say she's the ultimate creative multi-tasker and I hope you get as much from this episode as I did!
