In this episode, we dive deep into Laura Muthesius and Nora Eisermann’s eye for design and renovation process. Laura and Nora are the married design duo behind the https://www.instagram.com/_designtales_/ (Design Tales instagram account), and their gorgeous blog https://ourfoodstories.com/designtales/ (Our Food Stories). They share about how their love for design began, how they work together to design a space, and what goes into remodeling an old interior. All of their design work has been on older pre-existing buildings, and that has meant a lot of adventures and unexpected twists and turns to their various design projects. Strap in and enjoy the ride as they share their tips, insights, and design process in this fascinating interview!

Welcome to our very first episode! This has been a long time coming, and we are beyond excited to nerd out about interior design, garden, and all things home with you in the coming weeks, months, and (possibly) years. We’re diving into a little background here, so you have some context for who we are and why we started the podcast. It helps to say who “we” are— Sam Struck of https://www.strucksured.com/ (StruckSured Interior Design), and https://evakosmasflores.com/ (Eva Kosmas Flores), a stylist + photographer. Sam is an incredibly talented interior designer who works out of Hood River, Oregon, with her team of 4 designers at her own interior design studio. Eva is a photographer, stylist, cookbook author, blogger, and general plant nerd. She teaches online courses about photography and the like, and is based in Portland, Oregon. We started this podcast because we wanted to dive into the connection between your home’s exterior and interior, and also highlight sustainability within the design realm, which is often overlooked. There’s nothing like getting cozy in a room that makes you *feel* good to be in, and have a lovely view out of the window of a lush little garden, too! Over the coming episodes, we’ll be interviewing experts in interior design, landscape design, and sustainable building + design practices. We’ll also have some cozy episodes that are just the two of us diving deep into one particular subject, dishing up the most helpful advice + insights possible. We’ll also be answering listener mail in every episode, diving into one interior design and one garden question, so make sure to https://feelslikehomepodcast.com/#listener-mail (send those over to us) with pictures 🙂 We can’t wait to talk more with you!
