HOME with The Cousins

Show Notes:
We found Buster+Punch in early 2013 and have had a love affair with their products ever since, so it was an absolute pleasure to have the founder, Massimo Minale, on for a chat to understand how it all began, what makes him tick, and his thoughts on design in general….not to mention the motorbikes! These guys are super passionate, and have a great eye for detail. Highly recommend having a cruise around their site.

Show Notes:
Finally a brand new episode! We have Brian Patrick Flynn back on the Podcast and we are talking about HGTV Dream Home 2019. If you haven’t seen it yet there is a link below so you can check it out and sign up to try and win it! It never ceases to amaze me how much thought has to go into dream home due to the broad audience that Brian is designing for, and he does a really good job of articulating just how complex it can get…and that doesn’t even touch the execution part of the build, which we also dive into. Brian is easily one of my favorite designers to chat with, and I think that is because he has a vision he wants to realize, but he is also cognizant of money and schedule, he says everything he thinks without filter, and it always makes for a great conversation. Hope you enjoy it as much as we did.
