EP 380 | Sustainable Interior Design: Align Your Values with Your Work with Beth Maricic

podcast

What does it mean to design with intention—for your clients and the planet?

In this episode, Kimberley Seldon is joined by Beth Maricic to explore how interior designers can align their work with sustainability, circular design, and regenerative practices. Because designing for the future isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s about making thoughtful choices at every stage of a project.

If you want to create spaces that reflect both your values and your client’s needs, this episode will expand how you approach design decisions.

What you’ll learn in this episode:

  • How to incorporate sustainable and regenerative design principles into your projects
  • Why choosing recycled, biodegradable, and eco-conscious materials matters
  • The importance of sourcing certified organic textiles
  • How deconstruction can replace demolition to reduce waste
  • How to manage site waste through sorting, donating, and repurposing
  • Why repainting, refinishing, and redesigning can extend the life of materials

DESIGN INTERVENTION

Align your business with your values. Listen to your body and how it is reacting to your day-to-day experience. If you aren’t sleeping, for instance, you might not be working in alignment with your values.
