  • Hello and welcome to the Entrepreneurs on Monocle Radio.

  • The show all about inspiring people, innovative companies and fresh ideas in global business.

  • Today's show is all about intentionality and slow design.

  • First, we'll meet a New York based interior designer who champions a traditional approach to craftsmanship and inspiration.

  • I worked hand in hand with actual designers.

  • You learn so much about the quality of the textiles.

  • I think that's where I really first got my education in that.

  • And I'll be joined by Monocle's design editor, Nick Moniz for an industry forecast.

  • What have you got for us, Nick?

  • We'll be talking architecture, materiality, furniture and more.

  • Tom.

  • I can't wait.

  • Looking forward to that.

  • This is the Entrepreneurs with me.

  • Tom Edwards.

  • Melissa Bowers is the founder of MA Bowers Inc.

  • An interior design and creative studio specializing in luxury, hospitality and residential design.

  • With a background in fashion and visual merchandising, she launched the brand in 2015 after working on high profile projects for the likes of Tom Ford, Harry Winston and Grand Hotels.

  • Today, with diverse clients across multiple fields, Melissa's gained a reputation for the thoughtful and deliberate nature of her work, coupled with a versatility that's won her admiration from peers and critics alike.

  • I caught up with Melissa to hear about that approach and I began by asking what she thinks of being labeled a designer's designer.
