July 06, 2023Spanish Colonial Revival | How to Keep Fresh & Authentic
One of our listeners asked the question of how someone can lean into the Spanish Colonial style of home, so we have created this podcast for those who have moved into a decades old home and aren’t sure about how to lean into its style. We want to help you know what to keep and preserve, and also what to change to fit your style. We wanted to do a quick little history lesson and talk about 5 principle things that are included in Spanish Colonial architecture, and then why certain celebrity estates are successful and why each of them look different because they each have a fresh new take.

“Spanish Colonial Revival is most often used to describe homes developed in the early 20th century in the US or Mexico. Houses in this style Incorporate key elements of Mediterranean architecture, especially bright white exterior walls while also taking inspiration from Mexican, pueblo, and moorish design styles. The architectural style represents an adaptation of Spanish missions and Mediterranean style homes designed to keep the interior cool even on hot days. In the United States, Spanish revival homes are most popular in Florida, Texas, California, and the Southwest, including Arizona and New Mexico.” 8:20

June 29, 2023Quiet Luxury | A Trend or a Lifestyle?
We wanted to discuss something that pops up a lot in the different magazines we’re reading, social media, and we feel like we need to talk about and unpack it here. The trend, or lifestyle, is called quiet luxury and some people refer to it as stealth wealth, which means you’re really quiet about your luxury and actually looking like millionaires, and not trying to drip so hard or wearing all the labels all at once. There’s a way to use the right materials in a way that isn’t shouting flashy, but still shines excellence and luxury.

“Hallmarks, such as classic, well made, muted staples that don’t shout out their provenance, also known as ‘classics’... It’s about mixing an eye watering expensive coat with baggy vintage jeans, wearing multiple shades of beige all at once.” 13:30

June 22, 2023The Color Q&A | Answers to Your Questions on Paint & Color
We often have questions from our listeners about color, so we figured it was time to do an episode dedicated to this topic and put out a post to our followers to send in any questions they had about wall color in particular and we had so many questions come in. It’s easy to follow trends and just do what everyone else is doing, but it doesn’t matter what someone’s top favorite color is because it could look terrible on you and you might hate it. This is the year of introspection and understanding what you’re drawn to, how you dress yourself, and figuring out who you are. This is something that we are all very passionate about here at Alice Lane, which is understanding these things while also being current about where art and design is in popular culture.

“There’s a reason why we’re exiting out of this cool, sad gray because we want to be happy. Covid was really hard on everybody, so this is your time to re-energize yourself because color is energy 100%.” 11:54

June 15, 2023How to Shape Your Taste | Continuing to Educate and Evolve
Sue had this epiphany the other day when we were driving down the road and talking about what to talk about on the podcast and she said she had a juicy one. Taste is an ever evolving thing that we should be feeding, which will continue to change and be molded over time as we are exposed to different things. Taste is subjective and really just uniquely developed for every person. We are asked to design people’s homes and interpret them through our lens, taking what taste notes we have on what pairs nicely with their story and creating an environment where they feel at home and that their taste has been reflected correctly. “Good taste is better than bad taste, but bad taste is better than no taste.”
How to shape your taste 3:30
Your taste evolves 7:25
Genius creates and taste preserves 8:50
Growing up and developing our own tastes 16:15
The importance of finding people who support you 22:55
You don’t need a lot of money to have good taste 24:50
“Just because you’re speaking in absolutes doesn’t necessarily mean that you’re right. I think that portrays confidence and people mistake confidence with having good opinions, and those are not necessarily synonymous with each other, although I think you have to have a level of confidence to be able to build your good taste.” 5:31

June 08, 2023Breaking Down Metal Finishes | Where To Use Them
Today we’re doing a little podcast on metal finishes mainly from a listener question that we had come in, but we’ve also had a few of these hot topics in our own minds that we felt like we should solve, so we’re putting them all together and calling it ‘Metal Finishes.’ One of our listeners wanted to know our favorite finishes for cabinet knobs and poles, saying ‘polished nickel for plumbing? Thanks for any advice.’ We’ve been saying that silver is king from here on out, which we’re seeing in fashion and homes are following suit.

“ I think that’s really good to know yourself in finishes, which is why we’re doing this podcast so that if you’re a perfectionist, you are not gonna want anything unlacquered. You’re gonna wanna know that that is stayed and true, and you are gonna really love lacquered brass, or you’re gonna love electro plated if it’s done very, very well, or even gold leafed.” 19:58
