All-In Design

In this very serious episode, we have a lively discussion with Liz Hunsicker with Haworth. We cover how she made the transition from interior designer to manufacturer sales, the initial challenges she faced, and the rewards of the job. She also shares what she would like for her birthday (for those who need to know)... 

In this episode, we continue our conversations with manufacturer representatives with an engaging discussion with Jimmy Harrison of Harrison Workplace Furnishings. Listen in to learn about Jimmy's transition from office supply sales to owning his own rep firm. We cover the distinctions between being an independent rep and a direct rep for manufacturers and the trials of owning a small business.  

In this episode, we talk with Tonia Trotter Price with Sesco Lighting. Although we appreciate every guest we have on, we especially like those that bring margaritas. Join us as we discuss Tonia's background and journey to rep sales, her impeccable taste, pen color of the day, and her love of driving. 

In this episode of All-In Design, we talk with Vince Morgan with Momentum. Vince shares with us how he got into the industry, how a boy from New York ends up in Alabama (spoiler - "go to Alabama or you're fired"), and what it takes to be a successful rep in this industry. 

In this episode, the first of our "Talking with Reps" series, we have a discussion with Lori Bailey of Interface. We explore her first job as an interior designer and her then transition into sales. We hear about her chaotic "day in the life" of a sales rep and how best to use points when traveling. 

In this episode, which is clearly our finest work to date, we are joined by Jessica Babler with KPS Group, as we discuss all things NeoCon (and Design Days).  Daltile was nice enough to host our somewhat meandering recording session on Day 2 of the show. Have a listen and see how well the hosts do without a script, while getting insight on IIDA's CLC event, judging the best showrooms at NeoCon, and how Jessica plans to get to the airport. 

Join us for a discussion with Katy Lucas of Goodwyn Mills Cawood. In this episode, we discuss the rewards of creating space for people to inhabit, especially as it relates to educational spaces. We explore the importance of communication and documentation and how that can influence budgetary constraints on a project. We also discuss nicknames and memorable faxes that have been received.

In this episode of All-In Design, we have a conversation with Nancy Jernigan, our first sole practitioner on the podcast. We discuss all of her many skillz, especially in how to approach timeless design.  We are also treated to Mark discussing his home renovations. 

Join us for a discussion with John Beason of Williams Blackstock Architects. In this episode, we talk about the importance of having a strong design concept from the start and the beauty of simplicity. We also discuss what makes a great anniversary gift. 

In this episode, we had a conversation with Faith Baumann of Poole & Co., who specializes in healthcare design and has the most healthy take on the future of technology (and when not to use it).  Come for what inspires her in the field of healthcare design and stay for the dinosaurs...
