Trends For 2026, Part 2 & HBO’s “Heated Rivalry” | Uploft Interior Design Podcast

Описание: In this episode of the Uploft Interior Design Podcast, I’m recording from my bathroom on a snow day, juggling three kids, a flu quarantine, and cabin fever while diving into part two of my 2026 interior design trends report, where I break down what’s in, what’s questionable, and what I’m personally excited about—from going all-in on tile and embracing textile wall hangings to cautiously approaching leopard print, rejecting hand stenciling, loving layered botanical prints, and fully endorsing the dramatic return of the “5th wall,” aka the ceiling. I also share some real-life context about being stuck indoors, explain why certain trends feel timeless versus truly trendy, and then pivot hard into my unexpected obsession with Heated Rivalry, analyzing its unrequited-love tension, stunning interiors, and the addictive rabbit hole of post-show press tours that left me completely hooked.
