How to Design a Home Decor Empire – Jonathan Adler

share:

 

Jonathan Adler – the king of modern chic design – was once told that he had no talent, that art was not his calling, that he should just give up. So how did he rediscover his love for pottery and become an insider of the design world? Jonathan also shares how a trip to Peru expanded his cottage industry into a prosperous company, how naivety and desperation resulted in opportunities, and why he doesn’t always follow his parents’ advice.

TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE:

  1. Your main resource is yourself.

  2. In times of naivety, desperation, and panic, we end up doing things that we’d never have the courage to do otherwise.

  3. Collaborating with people outside of your own world is a win-win situation.

  4. Don’t be scared to branch outside of your style and your medium. It creates more opportunities.

  5. Believe it or not, sometimes it’s better not to listen to your parents.

  6. You might make your passion a career, or let it stay as your side hobby. Neither way is right or wrong – just do what works for you.
