Expressing Emotion in Art with AK Hardeman08 Apr 202500:28:24
"As an artist I am interested in the interaction of color; how the arrangements of colors create a work of art. I use acrylic and oil paints, oil pastel, colored pencil, and paper to create my work on canvas and paper. Color affects appetite, vision, sexuality, design, art, emotions and myriad aspects of life that impact the very psychology of people. Color is expressed in all of our surroundings, especially in nature and science. Colors can be complementary, harmonizing, adjacent, or they can contrast and clash. Color is the central theme of my work. I focus on colors that express my emotions and feelings in an image that leaves the viewer room to interpret. 

There is rarely a point I try to get across, a statement I try to make, or a system of signs I wish to give a message or meaning. I am simply interested in the use of color and aesthetic freedom. I try to create the semblance of an object that gives rise to the viewer’s own emotions and feelings. My goal is for viewers to invent and unravel their own meaning."

Finding Your Inner Artist/Playful Design with Parker Kennedy25 Mar 202500:35:32
Lance Jackson, co-founder and creative director, developed the Parker Kennedy Living interior design group and brand with business partner and co-founder David Ecton in 2011. Lance started his career in 1997 in the interior design business after graduating from SCAD Savannah with a BFA in interior design. While working and developing highly successful interior design groups for Atlanta-based architecture firms (ranging from high-end residential to hospitality to student and multi-family housing), Lance decided it was time to make his own stamp in the interior design industry with his own brand. Three years spent working in furniture product development sparked Lance’s desire to continually have his hand in the product design industry. 

Parker Kennedy Living focuses on high-end residential interior design, vintage furniture restoration and product development. Their look is “Preppy on the Edge” – Southern Regency is what Lance calls it – taking a traditional interior and elevating it to an updated look using lacquer finishes and mixing textures and vintage details with young colors and patterns. The interiors are fresh while maintaining a deep-rooted interest in the traditional and exhibit Palm Beach overtones. 

Lance is a founding member of the SCAD Atlanta Advisory Council and has a large interest in supporting SCAD Atlanta. 

David Ecton, co-founder of Parker Kennedy, has spent the last 20 years preparing for the Parker Kennedy explosion. David’s fascination with architecture stems from his study abroad in Venice, which involved his study and excavation of an ancient Etruscan ruin that was discovered in early 1990s. It was there that David learned the importance of how one’s space affects the way we live. 

While attending the University of South Alabama and studying international trade, David interned with the Governors of the Gulf Coast on the NAFTA agreement. This internship was a stepping-stone into the world of trade. Upon graduation, David headed Mexico City to work for the State Department. When David returned to the States he continued his studies, receiving an MBA in International Trade. During graduate school, working as a graphic artist offered David a creative outlet while he was crunching numbers. And it was this experience that was the key to getting his first job. David landed at an IT firm looking for a Marketing Director – a position that enabled him to have full creative autonomy while learning about the evolving technology market. David likens that industry to design: “Staying abreast of technology is very similar to staying up with the trends in design – one minute you are current, the next, dated.” 

Longing to get back into exporting and importing, with a mix of design, David and Lance teamed up to found Parker Kennedy.

Discovering Your Signature Style26 Aug 202500:27:15
In this episode of Boulevard Beat, Meghan and Krissa unpack the journey of developing your own personal style. Drawing on their experiences in the design world as designer and editor, they share how style is built over time—through trial and error, collecting meaningful pieces, and allowing your home to tell your story. The conversation moves from finding inspiration in everyday life to editing what doesn’t fit, and the importance of creating spaces that feel both livable and timeless. With humor, honesty, and practical wisdom, they remind listeners that style isn’t about following rules—it’s about discovering what feels authentic.

Street Style Takeaways:
  1. Style evolves with life — as your lifestyle shifts, your interiors should adapt to reflect who you are in that moment.
  2. Editing is as important as collecting — knowing what to leave out is often what makes a room feel intentional.
  3. Trends can inspire but shouldn’t dictate — use them as seasoning, not the whole recipe.
  4. Personal pieces matter — art, heirlooms, or travel finds are what bring depth and authenticity.
  5. Confidence is key — the best style is the one you believe in and live comfortably with.

Setting the Sparkle: Joanna Buchanan on Joyful Living and Decorative Details17 Jun 202500:38:46
In this episode of Boulevard Beat, Meghan and Krissa are joined by the endlessly inspiring Joanna Buchanan—founder of her namesake lifestyle brand known for its vibrant, jewel-toned home décor and whimsical entertaining accessories. With a background in fashion retail and a globally influenced aesthetic, Joanna shares how she built a business rooted in color, storytelling, and celebration.

The conversation sparkles with tips on creating thoughtful tablescapes, designing with personality, and finding joy in the little details that turn everyday moments into elevated experiences. From mixing metals to embracing maximalism, Joanna reminds us that beauty is in the layers—and the bugs (yes, really!).

This is an episode for anyone who believes that style should be fun, personal, and always a little unexpected. 

Street Style Takeaways
  1. Style Is in the Story
    Every piece in your home should tell a story—whether it’s a flea market find or a jeweled napkin ring. Design with intention and layers of meaning.
  2. Don’t Save the Sparkle
    Use your “fancy” pieces for everyday moments. Joanna’s philosophy? Life is the occasion—so bring out the glitter bugs and gilded coasters on a Tuesday.
  3. Mix, Don’t Match
    Combine metals, patterns, and textures freely. It's the unexpected pairings—brass and bamboo, stripes and florals—that make a table or room come alive.
  4. Design from the Details Up
    Start with one inspiring element—a color, a bug, a family heirloom—and build your space or table setting around it. Small pieces can lead the creative direction.
  5. Celebrate Color, Always
    Don’t shy away from bold hues or playful combinations. Joanna’s world is proof that color adds joy, confidence, and a touch of magic.

The Flag We Fly – Style with Soul12 Jun 202500:28:25
In this special Flag Day bonus episode, we’re joined by Cynthia Brooks, a renowned flag expert and trusted source for collectors seeking rare, storied, and one-of-a-kind flags.

Cynthia shares how flags carry more than symbols—they hold history, identity, and deep emotional resonance. From 13-star treasures to Civil War-era finds, she gives us a peek into the world of flag collecting, how she helps clients build meaningful collections, and why these textiles deserve a place of honor in the home.

Whether you’re a design lover, history buff, or simply flag-curious, Cynthia’s passion and knowledge bring a soulful new perspective to the stars and stripes.

Street Style Takeaways: Cynthia Brooks on Flags with Soul
  1. Collect with Meaning
    Just like curating a wardrobe or a room, collecting flags is about finding pieces that tell a story—not just fill space.
  2. Display What Matters
    Whether it’s a vintage flag or a family keepsake, put your history on display. Style your space with items that represent your identity.
  3. Respect the Past, Style for Now
    Cynthia blends reverence for American history with modern presentation—just like mixing vintage with new in fashion or interiors.
  4. Textiles Tell a Story
    A tattered edge, hand-stitched star, or faded hue can hold generations of meaning. Don’t be afraid to embrace imperfection—it adds soul.
  5. Patriotism with Personality
    Your home—and your style—can reflect love for country in subtle, personal ways. Think beyond red, white, and blue to a palette of heritage.

The Soft Side of Summer10 Jun 202500:43:17
In this episode of Boulevard Beat, Meghan Blum and Krissa Rossbund celebrate the season of sun-drenched ease with a deep dive into the "Soft Side of Summer." From breezy afternoons on the porch to unhurried outdoor entertaining, this conversation is an ode to intentional relaxation and effortless beauty.

They explore how interior and exterior spaces can become sanctuaries of calm, and why soft textures, light palettes, and unfussy elegance define the season’s best design and fashion moments. Whether you're styling a screened-in porch or curating a capsule wardrobe, this episode will inspire you to embrace summer’s gentler pace—with a touch of grace and style.

Street Style (Design) Takeaways:
  1. Design for the Pause
    Think beyond aesthetics—design spaces that encourage rest, reflection, and slower living. Porches, patios, and garden nooks can become sanctuaries when layered with softness and comfort.
  2. Let the Outdoors Feel as Considered as the Indoors
    Meghan and Krissa agree: a screened porch should be just as thoughtfully appointed as a living room. Use lighting, rugs, and soft furnishings to create an outdoor room that feels cohesive and cared for.
  3. Use a Soft Color Story
    Stick to sun-washed tones—creams, driftwood, soft blues, and greens pulled from nature. These hues not only calm the senses but also visually cool a space during warmer months.
  4. Mix Texture for Depth and Comfort
    Summer is the season for texture. Layer in woven materials, light linens, stone, and soft cottons to give spaces warmth and visual richness without heaviness.
  5. Keep Entertaining Effortless
    Whether it’s a backyard dinner or a porch cocktail hour, ease is everything. Have lightweight furniture you can move, durable dishware that still feels elevated, and lighting that flatters (hello, string lights and lanterns).
  6. Don’t Overthink It
    As discussed on the show, the most charming spaces are often the least fussy. Let your summer spaces breathe—leave room for spontaneity and simplicity.

Guest Rooms with Style and Grace03 Jun 202500:37:40
In this episode of Boulevard Beat, Meghan and Krissa take a deep dive into the design and purpose of guest rooms—those often underutilized spaces that, when done right, leave a lasting impression.

As the summer hosting season approaches, they share ideas for crafting rooms that make guests feel not only comfortable but genuinely cared for. From the must-have basics to creative design details, they explore how to transform any spare room into a gracious, stylish retreat—without going overboard.

Whether your guest space is a multipurpose nook or a full suite, this episode will help you elevate the experience with ease and intention.
Street Style Takeaways:
  1. Start with Comfort and Function
    A great guest room begins with a solid foundation—think supportive mattress, blackout window treatments, and good lighting.
  2. Design with Intentionality
    Don’t treat the guest room as an afterthought or dumping ground. Thoughtful design creates a welcoming energy that reflects the rest of your home.
  3. Avoid the “Hotel Stiffness” Trap
    It's not about perfection—it’s about warmth. Add books, a cozy throw, or art that feels personal rather than generic.
  4. Anticipate Guest Needs
    Think like a guest: Where will they charge their phone? Is there space for their suitcase? Little conveniences make a big difference.
  5. Layer Personality into the Space
    Use the guest room to tell a story—whether that’s family photos, a collected mirror, or a color palette that complements your home's character.

Hiring a Design Professional13 May 202500:37:40
On this episode of Boulevard Beat, co-hosts Krissa Rossbund and Meghan Blum dive deep into the real reasons why interior design matters—not just for style, but for wellness, energy, and quality of life. Meghan pulls back the curtain on what it truly means to be a designer, breaking the myth that it's all glamour and paint swatches. From the science of neuroaesthetics to the emotional importance of finishing a space, she shares how thoughtful design can transform your home and your nervous system.

We discuss everything from budget misconceptions to the hidden value of trade-only access, what to expect during a consultation, and why trying to DIY your dream home can lead to costly mistakes. Meghan also reveals her personal “rules” for working with clients and how she ensures a process that’s both creative and collaborative.

Plus, don’t miss the stories behind some of her favorite projects and a peek into the behind-the-scenes hustle that makes it all look effortlessly beautiful. Whether you're starting a whole-home renovation or just need a bit of guidance, this episode is packed with insights that prove design is more than decor—it’s a lifestyle. 


Street style takeaways:

·  Interior design impacts your well-being. Meghan explains how neuroaesthetics and thoughtful design can actually regulate your nervous system and enhance daily life—not just make things “pretty.”

·  Hiring a designer saves money in the long run. Trying to DIY or hire piecemeal often leads to costly mistakes; designers bring access, strategy, and experience that protect your investment.

·  The consultation is everything. Meghan shares what to expect during the initial meeting and how it sets the tone for the entire project—from communication to vision alignment.

·  It’s not just about trends—it's about timelessness. Meghan emphasizes designing for longevity and emotional connection, not just what's popular on social media.

·  Design is collaborative, not transactional. The best projects happen when there’s mutual respect and trust between client and designer. Meghan shares her criteria for ideal clients and how she creates a healthy creative process.

Timeless Design: Building Spaces That Endure29 Apr 202500:46:52
In this episode of Boulevard Beat, we take a deep dive into one of the most elusive yet aspirational ideals in the world of interiors: timeless design. What does it really mean for a space to be timeless? And is it even possible in an industry built on change?

We kick things off by unpacking the word “timeless” itself—how it’s used in design, what it connotes, and what it doesn’t. From there, we spotlight iconic pieces that have stood the test of time—think the Barcelona daybed, Eames lounge chair and ottoman, the tulip table—and explore why these modern classics continue to earn their place in both historical and contemporary interiors.

We also get personal: sharing stories about those once-loved pieces that got stashed away… and the thrill of bringing them back into rotation. On the flip side, we talk about our forever favorites—the investment pieces that still feel fresh and meaningful, no matter how the trends evolve.

Budget and longevity are inextricably linked, so we examine what makes a piece truly worth investing in and how timelessness can (and should) be part of that equation. Meghan shares how often clients bring up the word timeless, how she navigates the pull between fleeting trends and enduring style, and how to avoid making choices that will feel passé in just a few years.

We touch on the design elements that have flooded recent Pinterest boards and Instagram feeds—white marble, black-framed windows, shiplap, reeded cabinetry, and lacquered blue libraries—and ask: when does a trend still have legs, and when has it run its course?

Then comes a lightning round of timeless design elements. Each of us brings a list of our own “design constants,” from blue and white to bouclé, built-ins to brass, stripes to scale. We go back and forth sharing why each made the cut—and what to watch out for to keep them feeling current, not tired.

Street style takeaways:
  • Why some materials, like marble and mohair, naturally lend themselves to timelessness
  • What it means when a “timeless” piece starts to feel dated
  • How to successfully adapt classic designs over time
  • Tips for curating spaces that can evolve with your taste
Whether you're a fellow designer or a style-savvy homeowner, this episode will help you refine your eye and gain a deeper understanding of how to build a home that feels both of-the-moment and lasting.

Getting Personal: Our Design Don’ts14 Aug 202500:46:36
In this candid and lighthearted episode of Boulevard Beat, Meghan Blum and Krissa Rossbund swap their biggest interior design pet peeves — the mistakes that make them cringe — and share the solutions that turn those missteps into stylish, timeless spaces. From the dangers of going “matchy-matchy” to the importance of scale, proportion, and functionality, they explain why certain design choices fall flat and how to elevate them with thoughtful details. Listeners will walk away with an eye for spotting what’s “off” in a room and the confidence to create spaces that feel collected, personal, and beautifully balanced.

5 Key Takeaways:
  1. Avoid the “matchy-matchy” trap — Coordinated pieces are fine, but identical sets can feel flat; mixing textures, finishes, and shapes creates sophistication and visual interest.
  2. Scale matters — Whether it’s furniture, art, or décor, correct proportions are key to making a space feel harmonious.
  3. Centerpiece height counts — Dining table arrangements should never block sightlines; keep them low to encourage conversation.
  4. Design is in the details — Layering patterns, mixing metals, and varying shapes add depth and personality to a room.
  5. Mistakes are costly — Taking time to plan and invest in the right pieces up front will save both money and frustration later.

What is Luxury?22 Apr 202500:47:24
In this inspiring episode of Boulevard Beat, Meghan Blum and Krissa Rossbund explore what luxury truly means in today’s world. Gone are the days when luxury was defined strictly by price tags, designer labels, and grand estates. Instead, Krissa and Meghan dig into the emotional depth and intentional choices that now shape our perception of luxury.

From the materials that surround us to the stories behind curated pieces, the discussion shifts toward how personalization, craftsmanship, and thoughtful living embody modern luxury. Krissa shares her insights from years in the editorial world, noting how readers and homeowners alike are gravitating toward experiences and environments that offer beauty, comfort, and meaning—without necessarily being opulent or extravagant.

Meghan emphasizes how luxury can be found in the quiet moments: a perfectly tailored chair, a hand-thrown ceramic vase, or the peaceful rhythm of a well-designed room. Together, they explore how classic style and current trends can harmonize when guided by intention.

This episode is a refreshing reminder that true luxury is about how something makes you feel—not just how much it costs. 

Street Style Takeaways:
  1. Luxury is Personal, Not Just Pricey
    Today’s luxury is less about the label and more about emotional connection, comfort, and meaning.
  2. Intentionality is Everything
    Curated, thoughtful choices—like quality textiles or a handmade item—elevate a space more than trends ever could.
  3. Craftsmanship Carries Weight
    Pieces that tell a story or reflect true artistry add depth and richness to a home that mass-produced items can’t replicate.
  4. Luxury is in the Everyday Moments
    A serene corner, the way natural light hits a room, or the ritual of morning coffee in a beautiful mug—all are quiet luxuries.
  5. Classic Design Is Timeless
    Krissa and Meghan highlight how staying rooted in classic style creates lasting beauty, even as trends evolve.

Known for her soulful use of color and cultural storytelling, Sharon shares how her Korean heritage, California upbringing, and artistic lineage have shaped her distinct point of view.

Living With Books08 Jul 202500:45:24
Books aren’t just for reading—they’re for layering, styling, and storytelling within your space. In this episode of Boulevard Beat, Meghan and Krissa explore the power of books as a design element. From coffee table classics to vintage volumes stacked just so, we dive into how books bring warmth, texture, and personality into a room.

We share tips on curating your collection, choosing the right scale and colors, and how to make books part of your interiors in meaningful (and stylish) ways. Whether you’re a maximalist or a minimalist, you’ll leave inspired to look at your bookshelves—and your design projects—a little differently.

Street Style Takeaways :

·  Books Add Soul – Every room needs something personal. Books reflect your interests and give depth to your space. Don’t be afraid to show off your collection.

·  Stack with Intention – Vary horizontal and vertical stacks, and consider proportion. Tall, large books work great on the bottom for visual weight.

·  Spines Matter – Think about color, texture, and typography. A curated spine lineup can be as impactful as art.

·  Mix High & Low – Combine beautiful design books with thrifted finds, novels, or even kids’ books. It’s the mix that makes it feel lived-in and layered.

·  Think Beyond the Shelf – Books work on console tables, kitchen counters, nightstands—even the bathroom. They’re one of the most versatile styling tools out there.

What Makes Design Editorial24 Jun 202500:52:53
In this episode of Boulevard Beat, Meghan sits down with Krissa Rossbund, senior editor at Traditional Home, to unpack the question: What makes design editorial? Together, they explore what goes into curating and publishing a feature-worthy project—from the editorial eye for detail to the emotional story behind the design.

Krissa shares how she identifies spaces that resonate with readers, how trends are balanced with timeless aesthetics, and why a project's heart is just as important as its beauty. Meghan and Krissa also dive into the working relationship between designers and editors, and the unseen effort behind every published spread.

Whether you're a designer dreaming of press, a design lover flipping through pages, or someone curious about the editorial process, this episode is a deep and delightful look at how great design finds its way to the printed page.


Street Style Takeaways:

·  Story First, Style Second A beautiful room isn’t enough—editors are looking for meaningful stories that connect the design to the homeowner or designer’s vision.

·  Timeless Always Wins Trends come and go, but classic elements with a twist have staying power in editorial features.

·  Details Matter From floral arrangements to lighting choices, it's often the nuanced styling that elevates a space from great to publishable.

·  Designer-Editor Trust Is Key The best features come from collaboration—when designers trust editors to tell the story authentically and editors trust the creative process.

·  A Published Project is a Process Getting featured isn’t overnight—it takes planning, patience, and understanding the editorial calendar and audience.

From closets that function as chic dressing rooms to pantries that elevate everyday routines, they show how these specialty spaces are more than just add-ons—they’re expressions of personal style and intentional living.

The conversation explores how design priorities have evolved from impressing guests to designing for the people who actually live in the home. Listeners will leave inspired to reimagine their own “everyday luxury” spaces, where function meets beauty.  

Street Style Takeaways:
  • Design for your lifestyle, not your visitors. Your home should reflect you—not just the spaces meant for entertaining.
  • Closets as couture. Think runway-worthy dressing rooms with seating, lighting, and little luxuries.
  • Pantries as statements. An organized, beautiful pantry is a power move that transforms daily life.
  • Nooks as signatures. Cozy corners and personalized rooms are like street style accessories—defining, unique, and full of personality.
  • Budget where it matters. Invest in the rooms you touch every single day.

Soil to Studio – Swati Bansal24 Sep 202500:31:36
On this episode of Boulevard Beat, Meghan Blum and Krissa Rossbund sit down with Swati Bansal, the visionary founder of Soil to Studio. Swati shares how she bridges centuries-old Indian textile traditions with modern design, honoring artisans and slow design practices. From her journey leaving banking to launching her own business, to collaborating with craftspeople and making hand-blocked textiles accessible for everyday life, this conversation explores creativity, versatility, and the power of human connection in design.
Street Style Takeaways:
  1. Creativity Can Thrive Anywhere: Inspiration doesn’t require a particular geography—Swati finds it in nature, everyday life, and quiet spaces away from constant external stimuli.
  2. Business Acumen Matters: A background in finance helped Swati approach her creative business strategically—budgeting collections like portfolios, understanding ROI, and building long-term sustainability.
  3. Textiles as a Storytelling Medium: Hand-blocked textiles combine playfulness and sophistication, offering versatility for both everyday and celebratory moments.
  4. Collaboration is Key: Working closely with artisans who are masters of their craft while open to experimentation creates “happy accidents” and elevates designs.
  5. Technology vs. Craftsmanship: While technology can help with global reach, Swati emphasizes that hand-driven processes bring focus, warmth, and character that machines can’t replicate.

Design Star with Chris Goddard27 Jan 202600:36:46
In this episode of Boulevard Beat, Meghan Blum and Krissa Rossbund sit down with Chris Goddard to explore how early creative influences, architecture, and lived experiences shape the way we design and build today. Chris shares his unconventional upbringing in a highly modern, art-forward home and how that environment sparked a lifelong passion for architecture, creativity, and thoughtful design.

The conversation moves beyond aesthetics and into how homes should function, feel, and endure. Together, they discuss the balance between modern design and livability, the importance of flexibility in spaces, and why some of the most meaningful homes are those that allow for change, creativity, and personal expression over time.

This episode is a reflective look at how design is informed not just by trends, but by memory, movement, and the way we actually live in our spaces.

Street Style Takeaways:
  • Early environments matter
    Growing up surrounded by architecture, art, and travel deeply influences how designers and creatives see the world — and how they approach building and design later in life.
  • Highly designed doesn’t always mean highly livable
    Chris reflects on growing up in a home where everything was built-in, sparking a conversation about the importance of flexibility, movement, and adaptability in design.
  • Creativity thrives in lived-in spaces
    Homes that allow for evolution — furniture that can move, rooms that can change purpose — often feel more personal and more timeless.
  • Design should support real life
    A beautiful home is one that supports how people actually live, gather, and grow, not just how it photographs.
  • Timeless design is rooted in intention, not trends
    Thoughtful architecture, quality materials, and purposeful layouts outlast fleeting design moments.

Something New: How to Design a New Build That Feels Classic20 Jan 202600:41:49
In Part Two of our Something Old, Something New series, we turn our attention to new construction and explore how to design a brand-new home that still feels timeless, layered, and full of character. Meghan and Krissa unpack the realities of building from the ground up, where possibility is endless, but thoughtful decision-making is essential.

This episode dives into how to avoid overly trendy design choices, why proportion and architectural detail matter more than ever in new builds, and how early planning sets the tone for the entire home. From layout and ceiling heights to lighting, materials, and flow, Meghan and Krissa share insights on what truly makes a new house feel enduring rather than momentary.

Listeners will walk away with a deeper understanding of how to balance innovation with restraint, collaborate effectively with builders and architects, and design spaces that feel warm, intentional, and livable proof that “new” and “classic” can coexist beautifully.

Key Takeaways:
  • Classic design starts at the foundation
    Timeless homes are shaped by strong planning, thoughtful architecture, and intentional early decisions.
  • Trends should be edited, not adopted wholesale
    Not every new feature is worth building in—longevity should always guide choices.
  • Proportion and scale matter more than finishes
    Ceiling height, window placement, and room balance often define the success of a new build.
  • A blank slate requires clarity
    Without a clear design vision, new construction can feel disjointed or overly busy.
  • Collaboration is critical
    Alignment between designer, architect, builder, and homeowner ensures cohesion and avoids regret.
  • Warmth is what makes a house feel like home
    Layered materials, thoughtful details, and personal touches prevent new builds from feeling sterile.
  • Design for how you live
    The most successful new homes reflect real life—not just what’s currently trending.

High Point Market: Our Designer Wrap-Up04 Nov 202500:33:19
In this High Point Market recap episode of Boulevard Beat, Meghan and Krissa dive deep into the trend that quietly defined this season — texture. From nubby weaves to carved stone to leather-wrapped details, this Market proved that homes today are being shaped just as much by how things feel as how they look. We talk about the shift toward tactile comfort, warm materials, craftsmanship, and the way layering texture allows interiors to feel modern and soulful at the same time. It’s the trend that makes the room feel lived in, classic, collected — and it’s a direction that aligns so naturally with how we design. 

Street Style Takeaways:
  1. Texture is the New Pattern
    Clients are craving depth and warmth — nubby wools, soft boucle, woven leathers, raffia, grasscloth — it’s what makes spaces feel emotionally alive.
  2. Craftsmanship is Driving Trend
    Hand-finished materials, artisanal hardware, and tactile detail are becoming the new form of quiet luxury.
  3. Color is Warmer When Texture Leads
    Earthy neutrals and rich browns feel richer and more dimensional when layered in natural materials.
  4. Comfort is High Style
    From sculptural seating to matte stone, tactile surfaces make rooms feel both relaxed and elevated.
  5. Timelessness Comes From Materiality
    If you invest in texture over trend — a room stays classic longer.

You Asked, We Answered - Listener Questions28 Oct 202500:44:29
In this episode of Boulevard Beat, Meghan and Krissa open the floor to listener questions — diving into real-life design dilemmas from couples and clients with competing styles. From masculine and feminine balance to the surprising color choices clients make, the duo shares how design becomes both creative expression and relationship therapy. Meghan talks through her approach to honoring both partners’ visions, creating harmony through listening, compromise, and thoughtful design solutions. Krissa brings her editorial perspective, noting how individuality within a home can create some of the most compelling and personal spaces.

It’s a conversation about authenticity, collaboration, and the art of making every room reflect the people who live in it.

Street Style Takeaways:
  1. Listen first. Every great design begins by understanding each client’s non-negotiables.
  2. Find the common thread. Shared values—comfort, elegance, color—can bridge very different tastes.
  3. Mix the unexpected. Pair feminine patterns with masculine tones for a sophisticated balance.
  4. Celebrate individuality. Every person deserves a space that feels personal and restorative.
  5. Design is diplomacy. The best rooms find peace between perspectives—and that’s where the magic happens.

Something Old: The Enduring Beauty and Charm of Historic Homes13 Jan 202600:34:16
In Part One of this two-part series, Meghan and Krissa explore the enduring charm and emotional resonance of older homes. From historic architecture and thoughtful craftsmanship to the sense of soul that only time can create, this episode celebrates what makes old houses so special—and why so many homeowners feel drawn to them.

The conversation dives into the intangible qualities that can’t be replicated in new construction: layered neighborhoods, gracious proportions, hand-crafted millwork, and the stories embedded within the walls. Meghan and Krissa also discuss the realities of owning and renovating an older home—balancing romance with responsibility—and how thoughtful design can honor the past while supporting modern living.

This episode is an ode to character, history, and the beauty of homes that have lived a life before us.
Street Style Takeaways:
  • Old homes have soul.
    There’s an emotional depth in older houses—the sense of history, memory, and human connection—that simply can’t be manufactured.
  • Craftsmanship matters.
    From detailed millwork and taller baseboards to solid materials and intentional proportions, older homes showcase a level of artistry that feels increasingly rare.
  • Neighborhoods tell a story.
    Historic streets often feature architectural diversity, walkability, and a layered aesthetic that creates a richer sense of place.
  • Patina is a feature, not a flaw.
    Wear, aging, and imperfections add warmth and authenticity—embracing them is part of loving an old home.
  • Renovation requires respect.
    Updating an older home isn’t about erasing its past, but thoughtfully enhancing it while preserving its integrity.
  • Romance vs. reality.
    Older homes come with surprises—systems, maintenance, and constraints—but for many, the character outweighs the challenges.
  • Design is a bridge between eras.
    Great design allows old homes to function beautifully for modern life while honoring what made them special in the first place.

Designing a Life with Intention: Setting the Tone for the Year Ahead06 Jan 202600:37:11
As we begin a new year, we’re choosing a different approach one rooted in clarity, purpose, and ease. In Designing a Life with Intention: Setting the Tone for the Year Ahead, we explore why intentions are often more powerful than resolutions, and how they allow us to move forward with flexibility rather than pressure.

This episode is a thoughtful conversation about slowing down and becoming more intentional with how we live, work, and design our lives. Instead of chasing perfection or rigid goals, we focus on defining how we want to feel in the year ahead and allowing those feelings to guide our choices, rhythms, and environments.

From personal habits and creative energy to the spaces we call home, we discuss how intention can serve as a framework for everyday decisions, helping us stay grounded, present, and aligned as the year unfolds. This episode invites listeners to set the tone for the year in a way that feels sustainable, meaningful, and deeply personal.

Street Style Takeaways

1. Intentions focus on direction, not perfection
Resolutions are often outcome-based and rigid. Intentions allow room for progress, setbacks, and real life—while still keeping you aligned with what matters most.

2. How you want to feel matters more than what you want to achieve
Instead of asking “What do I want to accomplish?” we ask, “How do I want to live, move, and feel this year?” Ease, creativity, presence, joy, calm—these become guiding principles.

3. Intentions can evolve—and that’s a good thing
Life shifts, seasons change, and priorities adjust. Intentions are meant to move with you, not box you in.

4. Your home should support your intentions
Whether it’s creating more calm, carving out creative space, or simplifying routines, your environment plays a huge role in how well you live out your intentions day to day.

5. Small, consistent choices matter more than big declarations
Intentions show up in everyday moments—how you start your morning, how you design your space, how you protect your time.

Dream House: What Truly Makes a Home a Dream16 Dec 202500:39:36
In this special final episode of the year, Dream House: What Truly Makes a Home a Dream, Meghan and Krissa dive into the joy and intention behind creating a home that feels both beautiful and deeply personal. The conversation explores the pieces, features, and thoughtful touches that elevate everyday living — from meaningful collections to well-made furnishings that stand the test of time.

They discuss why a dream house isn’t about perfection or trends but about surrounding yourself with items you love, displays that tell your story, and spaces that invite ease, creativity, and connection. This episode closes out the year with warmth, reflection, and a clear reminder that the most “dreamy” homes are built with heart.

Street Style Takeaways:

1. A Dream Home Reflects You
The most beautiful houses tell a personal story — through art, books, collections, and the moments they showcase.
2. Quality Over Quantity
Investing in well-crafted furnishings enhances comfort, longevity, and daily enjoyment.
3. Function Matters
A dream house isn’t just pretty — it works for your lifestyle. Thoughtful storage and practical furniture can be both functional and soulful.
4. Ease Is the New Luxury
A home designed for smooth daily living (and a little breathing room) creates space for creativity, family, and rest.
5. It’s the Layering That Makes It Dreamy
Thoughtful layers — textiles, heirlooms, lighting, textures — bring warmth and personality that no trend can replicate.
6. Gratitude for Home + Year-End Reflection
This episode celebrates the joy of home and the meaningful conversations shared throughout the year on Boulevard Beat.

Screen Style….Design in Pop Culture09 Dec 202500:31:01
In this festive, feel-good episode of Boulevard Beat, Krissa, Liz, and Meghan dive into the unforgettable interiors that have defined TV, film, and pop culture. From the iconic Chicago charm of the Home Alone house to the whimsy of Practical Magic, the timeless Manhattan apartments of Sex and the City, and the cozy perfection of The Holiday, the trio explores how on-screen spaces shape the way we dream about, design, and live in our own homes.

They also unpack the subtle design storytelling behind shows like Gossip Girl, I Love Lucy, and The Cosby Show, and revisit beloved Nancy Meyers classics that continue to influence modern interiors decades later. It’s a nostalgic, design-nerd-approved conversation celebrating the way pop culture makes interiors memorable, magical, and deeply personal.

Street Style Takeaways: 

  • Iconic design lasts decades
    Homes like the Home Alone house or Amanda’s LA home in The Holiday remain relevant because they balance warmth, intention, and classic style.
  • Design in pop culture reflects personality
    From Carrie Bradshaw’s lived-in charm to Samantha’s bold urban glam, interiors often act as character development tools as much as wardrobe does.
  • Nancy Meyers perfected the “comfort-set aesthetic”
    Her homes — Hamptons coastal in Something’s Gotta Give or the split-world cottages in The Holiday — continue to shape what people crave: light, symmetry, softness, and soul.
  • Art plays a starring role
    Shows like Gossip Girl and The Cosby Show used real, notable artists and pieces, making collecting and appreciating art feel accessible and aspirational.
  • Pop culture sparks real-life design trends
    Whether it’s English cottage romanticism, Manhattan opulence, or classic Americana, these visual stories influence how people want to live today — cozy, collected, and character-rich.
