Designing for Emotion: How Interiors Shape the Way We Live | with Samantha Pope | Real Agency Podcast

In this episode of Real Agency Talk, Adam, Jamie, and Steve are joined by interior architect Samantha Pope for an inspiring conversation about the deeper role design plays in our homes — and in the property industry as a whole.

Samantha breaks down how great interior architecture is about more than just aesthetics. It's about creating emotion, flow, and functionality in every space. From lighting and layout to colour and client psychology, she shares how she approaches design to help people feel better in their homes — and how agents and developers can use that insight to add real value.

We talk about everything from the initial client brief to the challenges of working within existing architecture, and how design thinking can elevate any property, whether it’s a forever home or an investment project. If you're an agent looking to offer more value to your clients, or a homeowner wanting to understand how to design with intention, this one’s for you.
