In this episode of the Interiors Podcast, host and interior designer Tanya Neufeld Flanagan shares key insights from working on seven different interior design projects over the past year.

Instead of a typical annual recap, she dives into five key lessons learned, focusing on common challenges faced by clients, particularly those in Dublin considering fixer-uppers or period properties.

Tanya emphasizes the importance of creating a cohesive home style, trusting one's instincts in design choices, and understanding the functional aspects of kitchen layouts.

She examines two period projects that demonstrate how thoughtful design can transform spaces without extensive renovations.

The conversation covers the significance of a well-planned kitchen layout, the impact of colour palettes on overall home aesthetics, and innovative uses of space in period properties.

Tanya encourages listeners to embrace their unique styles while also considering practical elements that enhance daily living.
