This week, I'm speaking to Eric Clough who is the founder of Manhattan-based design firm 212box.

Eric was originally from the Midwest and spent his formative years in both Brussels and London. He graduated from Yale in 1999 and founded 212box in late 2000.

212box is actually made up of six companies, which are working in different disciplines and different sectors, and they have an incredible array of different projects.

They worked in retail with people like Christian Louboutin, Sergio Rossi, Lego, and Erdos / 1436, and enlisting clients such as the von Furstenberg family and Philip Roth for residential.

In this conversation, Eric goes into a lot of the philosophy and creativity, and how they merged that with the business aspects of 212box.

212box are brilliant narrators and storytellers with one of their projects involving hiding a series of clues and hidden narratives within one of the buildings.

Still here? Eric has a little riddle for you:

If anyone listening knows of a scented tree, which grows in groves of Jacaranda and has the sure-footedness of a springbok, the industriousness of a beaver, and the vision of an eagle, we hope that you will reach out to that tree and try to tell them that weʼd love to meet them.

-If you can solve this riddle, get in touch!

This week, I'm speaking to Christina Kaz and Lilit Devejian, Founders and Principal Designers of LUXYSPACE, an interior design firm based in California with studios in both Fresno and Beverly Hills.

Christina and Lilit have a fabulous story and a very inspiring relationship. Both are Armenian, both are incredibly stylish, and both are often mistaken as each other's sisters.

The two met whilst working at another firm and very quickly found a kindred spirit in each other. They knew that their own practice was not far away, so they ended up setting up LUXYSPACE.

In this interview, we discuss how that process happened, how they worked effectively, and how they developed relationships with high-net-worth individuals, and how they assess whether a client is the wrong or the right fit.

This week, we are speaking with Bee Rarewala who is the Vice President and Director of Corporate Brand Strategy and Communications at CRTKL.

She recently joined the LA office and she centered her 20-year career around the nexus of design-thinking and business strategy.

She actually holds a degree in Economics and she's not formally trained as an architect, so she brings a very deep insight and specialist way of looking at where the world of design and business intersect, which made this conversation deeply fascinating.

She's the past President of the South California Development Forum, she sits on the USC Architecture Guild Board, and she is currently part of the USC Economics Leadership Council.

Her role at CRTKL means that she represents the brand at a firm-wide level, and she's seeking to align their message and the message of the business with the marketing strategy, the business goals, and the opportunities for shared initiatives.

She's also responsible for the creation of strategic initiatives and bringing those objectives into a meaningful internal and external communications strategy.
