from If These Walls Could Talk by The Business of Interiors
In episode 21, I had the pleasure of speaking with Karen Howes, CEO and founder of Taylor Howes. Karen candidly shares her journey in the interior design industry. From her nomadic childhood to her early experiences in the art world, Karen developed a passion for creating safe and beautiful spaces. She discusses the different arms of her business, including Taylor Howes (high-end residential design), Studio Howes (furnishing solutions for clients), and the newly launched Howes & Landino (collaborations with artisans and suppliers). Karen emphasises the importance of adaptability and flexibility in navigating the ever-changing market. We also discuss the importance of giving yourself space as a business owner and not allowing your business to become your identity. She emphasises the value of hiring a strong team and surrounding yourself with the best financial help. We touch on the significance of building long-lasting client relationships and managing their expectations throughout the design process.
