44. A Viral Laundromat Renovation & The Impact Of Good Design with Erin Carpenter

Today I’m so excited to bring on a guest who just completed an amazing project. Her name is Erin Carpenter, on instagram @erinv_carpenter and she and her husband recently finished buying and renovating a laundromat in Charleston which was really needed and used in the community but was in very bad condition. They got to know the community and their needs, turned the laundromat into a stunning absolutely gorgeous space that feels completely new, launched it with a free laundry day and then posted their project on social media where it now has a collective 15M views. I found Erin just a couple hours after they started going viral and reached out right away. Her page has since blown up so I feel very privileged to get to interview her today. We had such a nice chat hearing about the project, the importance of good design and the deeper impact it can have, her design process in general and basically just chatted about how we both love to make things feel cozy and beautiful. I think you’ll love this episode if you enjoy decorating or are looking for a way to use your creativity to make your own community better.
