You, Me & Design

We’re by no means experts when it comes to gardening, but, think that a lot of the same rules as designing a home, should apply to outdoor spaces. This week we’re planning our garden with you and talking about the trend of garden centres in the UK, Daylesford in particular!

It’s so easy to fall into the trap of designing your home for others or for rare occasions (like hosting Christmas!), rather than for your family, for everyday. This week, we’re sharing why it’s so important to make sure you design and use your home for you, and don’t feel pressured to make decisions based on what others are doing with their homes.

Have you heard of 'the unexpected red theory'? Well, today, we're diving deep into colour psychology, discussing why red improves the look of your home, and discussing haggling at antiques fairs. If you'd rather watch our podcast, find us on YouTube @youmeanddesign

We're back! We took a couple of months off to really think about what we want to share on the podcast going forward - and as I'm sure you can expect - it will mostly involve design! With spring right around the corner, we thought the perfect place to start would be de-cluttering and re-styling for spring. We hope you enjoy the episode and will see you next week!

It's our 'Christmas special'! We're having festive cocktails, Egg Nog, Berry Spritz, and a Cranberry Cosmo, and doing a Christmas quiz. As well as sharing all of our hosting and feasting tips for this season. This is our last episode of the series, and so if you enjoyed, please do rate and review and share the podcast with your friends. We'll be back in a few weeks with some exciting changes and updates! Have a very merry Christmas!

In this weeks episode we're chatting about Christmas decorating. Tinsel trees, viral garland hacks & lots more. We're sipping a new favourite drink using @oakhurstgin - which we've names an 'Orange-mary Fizz'. It's a double shot of gin, topped with freshly squeezed orange juice and tonic, garnished with a sprig of rosemary. Enjoy!

Regrettably, we're not having a cocktail today, though we promise we'll have an extra special one next week! We're answering lots of your questions on home design in this weeks episode; from storage in small spaces, reducing clutter, moving furniture layouts and tips for designing window-less rooms! We really hope that you enjoy this weeks episode, and if you do, please leave us a review. Thanks so much, Toby & Mikey

Today on You, Me & Design, we're chatting all things influencers. Discussing myths, misconceptions, income, and the difference between home decor influencers and qualified interior designers. Our cocktail this week is... one part gin, one part pear liqueur, half an orange juiced into the shaker, a sprig of rosemary, shaken over ice, and topped with tonic (served in a coupe, with a dried orange to garnish, if you like). It doesn't have a name, so please try it, and suggest something!

Our drink this week is a Japanese Slipper, and we're talking all things 'home renovation'. Would we do it again? What wouldn't we do? And the huge expense; physically, emotionally & financially... If you'd like us to answer your design dilemma, email us at [email protected]

In this episode of You, Me & Design, we're going IN on new build homes. Debunking myths and discussing the stigma around new build properties. We're chatting about how to add character, panelling, paint and much more. As well as answering your new build dilemmas! For those wanting to join us for a tipple, we're having what we call a StrawbFlower Spritz - 1 part vodka, 1 part strawberry liquor, 1 part elderflower cordial, and topped with champagne or Prosecco.
