Get It Right with Undercover Architect

Hello! This is Episode 224, and in it, I’m going to be doing an update to one of Year 3’s most popular episodes and continuing our celebration of 5 years of the “Get it Right” podcast.

In the last episode, I shared a reboot of the most popular episode from Year 3 of the podcast. It was from Season 10, which was called “Industry Insiders”. And the episode was my conversation with Jenny Edwards and Sarah Lebner from Light House Architecture + Science.

In it, we dived into some fantastic and actionable information on how to create a sustainable home in a really pragmatic and straight-forward way.

If you haven’t listened to the reboot of that episode, it’s definitely worth checking it out. You can find it at www.undercoverarchitect.com/223 and there’s a free downloadable transcript available as well.

Year 3 of the podcast was a varied one, where we covered a huge range of topics. It began with the tail end of Season 8 on the podcast, which is called “A Simple Guide to a Sustainable Home”.

Season 9 was a special video and audio series called “Keeping it Real” where I dived into some of the commonly held beliefs about renovating and building, especially when it comes to reality TV and online media, and the mindset issues that I see surprise homeowners in their own projects.

And then Season 10, which was the Industry Insiders season, plus we snuck in a few episodes of Season 11, the Interior Design Basics Season. So many great episodes on such helpful topics and know-how for any project.

If you are new to the podcast and haven’t familiarised yourself with all of that content, I’d really encourage you to do so. You can find a full index of all our episodes by heading to www.undercoverarchitect.com/podcast

In this episode, I’m going to provide you with some updates on where the industry is at, and specific regulations and help that can support you in achieving greater sustainability in your future home. At the time of recording this episode, it’s late 2021, and there’s some significant changes coming to Australian regulations, and this is happening worldwide, as the urgency of industry change is ever more present.

I also want to remind you, that whilst ‘sustainable’ may be interpreted as environmentally friendly, or ‘green’ in design and construction, it actually incorporates a lot more as a concept. So when you think about sustainability, think broadly about all things you can do to create a home that meets your current needs, without compromising the ability of future generations to meet theirs.

Simplifying Sustainable Home Design and Construction

This episode was from Season 10 of the podcast, which was called “Industry Insiders”.

Season 10 is a great season on the podcast, packed full of conversations I had with industry professionals from both Australia and the USA. If you haven’t listened to it, I’d encourage you to check it out. We had a fantastic range of guests with loads of expertise to share.

This rebooted episode was Episode 4 of that Season, and it’s a conversation with Jenny Edwards and Sarah Lebner, from Light House Architecture + Science.

These incredible women are both passionate about great design, sustainable homes, and achieving both in an affordable and accessible way. And they’re both amazing in the advocacy and education work they do to assist homeowners and industry colleagues well beyond their client base. It’s a great conversation jam packed with actionable info.

How to Choose Colour for Your Home

Hello! This is Episode 225, and in it, I’m going to be sharing one of Year 4’s most popular episodes and continuing our celebration of 5 years of the “Get it Right” podcast.

This episode was from Season 11 of the podcast, which was called “Interior Design Basics”.

Interior Design Basics was an incredible season where I discussed a huge range of information to know about the design and selection of the fixtures, fittings and finishes for the interior of your home. It was focussed on how to create a functional, durable, family home.

I’m passionate about the fact that styling and trends are something that can trigger ideas, but they’re not what creates timeless design or long term functionality.

And so, in Season 11, through the know-how of a great range of guests, and in sharing my own knowledge, the episodes go beyond the idea of interior styling, and into the performance, specification and detailing of your interiors so you can create a home that will perform durably with the love you and your family give it on a daily basis!

Of course, it’s not all about nuts and bolts info. Season 11 also helps with understanding how to create your design direction, and learning more about colour, finishes and textures in your home’s interior, and choosing interiors that reflect who you and your family actually are.

And this episode here reboots the most popular episode from that season. It’s when I brought Karen Haller onto the podcast to discuss Colour Psychology. Her book, “The Little Book of Colour” is such a fantastic exploration of this subject, and so actionable to help you create a home that authentically reflects you. It’s a brilliant conversation that really helps you embrace your OWN style and love of colour in an honest and empowering way.

You can grab a full transcript of this episode as a free PDF download - which wasn’t available the first time I released it. Plus I’ve got info about other helpful links and resources related to this topic. Just head to www.undercoverarchitect.com/225. Be sure to grab the PDF transcript so you can file that away and review this episode as needed.
