Transcript

Welcome to The Insider, the podcast that takes you behind the scenes of great interior design. I’m Alexandra Langdon, an interior designer specialising in Spatial Planning, and I believe that when a space flows well, it lays the perfect foundation for a home that’s both beautiful and functional.

Designing a home—whether you’re restoring, building, or simply updating a space—can feel overwhelming. There are endless decisions to make, and it’s easy to get lost in the details. That’s

where this podcast comes in.

Across this series, I’ll guide you through the entire design journey, from first ideas to final touches, so you know who to call, what to expect, and how to make the right choices at every

stage. We’ll break down the process, avoid common mistakes, and help you create a home that truly works for your lifestyle.

So, if you want to design with confidence and bring your vision to life, you’re in the right place.
