Jane Rockett and Lucy St George founded their renowned homeware company over 15 years ago now. Their products have always been bursting with authenticity and uniqueness.  We discuss what inspired them to start Rockett St George, what were the first items they sold and how they developed a brand identity that has seen them move from strength to strength in the interiors world. Some exciting news about new stores and the design thought process behind them.  We cover their books, wall paints ( and favourite colours ), where Jane goes to find inspiration for Rockett St George and how they work sustainably as a company. Also whether trends are important to them. Jane and I discuss her home dating back to the 1500's and all of it's wonderful features being an old pub. She also tells me about Lucy's taste and decor. Lots more chat and topics covered. Podcast copyright: Lucy Gleeson Interiors Artwork: Karina Mansfield Music: Andy Henderson
