The Sexiest Chair - According to Designer Kristen Siefkin

Welcome to The Daniel House Book Club. We’re here to learn more about great design together. Whether you’re designing a new hotel or just furnishing your first apartment, we’re exploring books that will help you create spaces you and / or your guests and clients will want to return to again and again. There’s a lot of design out there and though I hate to be a downer, not all of it is good. But all of it could be, if we armed ourselves with a little more knowledge. This is not a podcast created to persuade you toward one aesthetic or another, but to explore together the immense library of design genius that has been contributed to the world by so many great talents that came before us and some that are still among us, so that when we arrive at our next jobs, we’ll find our place amongst the ranks of our amazing profession. I’m Peter Spalding, the Chief Creative Officer of The Daniel House Club, and I’ll be your host.

Ever wonder where our modern sense of comfort developed? Join Peter as he takes a look some of the chairs we know and love and examines how they’ve contributed to contemporary design.https://danielhouse.club

People love to come to your house because they want to be in your vibe,” says Oregon Home Magazine editor, Emily Grosvenor. "Earlier eras were too concerned with what the story of their space was telling other people, but hopefully we're getting more into telling our own stories now," she adds.  Beyond her editorial work, Grosvenor acts as a spatial therapist. Relying on ancient wisdom and modern science, she helps people orient their homes in a way that reflects where they're headed, rather than where they were. As designers, we’re always cognizant of that delicate balance between asserting our own taste on a client’s home and taking the time to really understand who they are and how to show them in their very best light.Apologies for some intermittent sawing noise in the background. We did our best to reduce it as much as possible. https://danielhouse.club

We’re going to push our study of Josef Albers’ classic book Interaction of Color to next week, because  I wanted to share the interview I did with Cyrus Nazmiyal, the vice president of one of our vendors, Rug &amp; Kilim. In our conversation, we talk about a bunch of stuff from the history of his family’s incredible business, the trends he’s seeing in rug specification by designers now and some of the processes that make a Rug &amp; Kilim piece so special. Cyrus does mention some upcoming holiday festivities, as we talked right before the break, so I wanted you all to get to listen before the memories of the season are totally gone. Before I play the interview for you, a word of warning, Cyrus is a busy guy and Rug &amp; Kilim has an actual live Canary in their beautiful Long Island City showroom, so you may notice more ambient noice than usual. Still, I think you’ll all enjoy hearing what he has to say.
