In this Think Like A Designer episode, I sit down with Debbie Mathews, a Nashville-based interior designer and antiques dealer, to look through a curated selection of the rooms she's designed — from a sunroom in Belle Meade to a ranch outside Franklin, Tennessee.Every good client relationship starts the same way: the client names a problem and a few basics — a color they love, a piece they already own — and hands the rest over. What happens in that handoff is where a designer actually earns her keep, and it's usually invisible to everyone but her. This episode makes it visible.Subscribe to see and hear the full portfolio review: the sunroom nobody used until Debbie figured out why, the custom-built solution to a very specific bedside problem, and the trick she uses to bring a two-story room down to human scale.
