|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4/29/26 | “You’re Behind” Is the biggest lie in AI right now. | Text me and tell me what you think of this ep. AI is not replacing interior designers — it's replacing average ones. Rhiannon Lee, AI strategist for Australian interior designers, breaks down why "AI killed my industry" is lazy marketing, how pattern recognition software produces sameness not taste, and what designers need to document right now before AI flattens the industry. Practical, operational, and built for real studios — not theory. RESOURCES MENTIONED → Pre-AI documentation ... | 25m 47s | ||||||
| 4/22/26 | Where to actually start with AI in your design business (and what to stop doing) | Text me and tell me what you think of this ep. Interior designers who feel overwhelmed by AI typically don't have a tool problem — they have a prioritisation problem. Australian AI strategist Rhiannon Lee recommends three starting points: spend four minutes meeting Claude, do a five-minute audit of your most repetitive business tasks, and invest time in free AI literacy resources. Chasing AI image generation is the biggest time drain to avoid. EPISODE OVERVIEW The noise around AI is loud ri... | 36m 48s | ||||||

Join the email list to get the business restructure challenge, 'Studio Build' updates HERE The kids are on school holidays, there's a triple bunk being installed, and I'm stealing 20 minutes here and there to talk about the pricing shift that's quietly happening in the interior design industry and why you need to get ahead of it. This one's recorded live from the chaos: paint swatches, tent pitching, and small people interrupti... | 16m 16s | ||||||
| 4/1/26 | Posting AI slop isn't saving you time, it's costing you clients. | Text me and tell me what you think of this ep. AI adoption jumped dramatically in the first quarter of 2026 ... and so did the slop. In this episode Rhiannon gets into the conversation she's been sitting on: what AI-generated content actually looks like, why it keeps happening, and what the real fix is. Rhiannon takes a straight-from-the-machine AI caption and edits it in real time, cutting line by line and explaining exactly what to look for. The before: The AI slop tells to watch for... | 49m 06s | ||||||
| 3/25/26 | The AI data conversation nobody in the design industry is having... but should be. | Text me and tell me what you think of this ep. You've probably pasted a client brief into an AI tool this week. Maybe a site visit transcript. A proposal draft. A mood board description with the client's full name, address, and renovation budget attached. And there's a reasonable chance you've never read the terms of service of the tool you pasted it into. This episode is about that gap .. and what to do about it. Interior designers hold some of the most sensitive per... | 38m 18s | ||||||
| 3/23/26 | Build your Interior Design Project databases automatically with AI | Text me and tell me what you think of this ep. I uploaded a six-month-old transcript from a client consult and got a complete Notion project dashboard in about eight seconds. Find out how HERE Every action item, every room, every design direction we discussed — colour-coded, categorised, with checkboxes and notes. I hadn't touched the output. It just built it. This is for you if you finish a site visit, come home, and three weeks later you're trying to remember whether the client wante... | 12m 01s | ||||||
| 3/11/26 | rethinking how we renovate, with Bradley Montag | Text me and tell me what you think of this ep. In this episode of Designing Success, I sit down with interior designer Bradley Montag to talk about the intersection of design, property, and town planning. Bradley began his career as a town planning lawyer before transitioning into interior design, giving him a unique perspective on how homes should be renovated, extended, and designed. We explore how understanding planning regulations can influence design decisions, why heritage ... | 1h 07m 13s | ||||||
| 3/7/26 | How to set your studio up properly to use a variety of AI tools | Text me and tell me what you think of this ep. AI is everywhere right now — ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, Midjourney, Nano Banana — and interior designers are being told they need to learn all of it. But the real problem isn’t the tools. It’s the lack of context. In this episode of Designing Success, I break down how interior designers should actually be using AI inside their design studio, including: • the AI Studio Stack and what each tool is best for • why ChatGPT isn’t the best t... | 35m 37s | ||||||
