Get inspiration and top tips for your home from the top 7 interior design podcasts in the world!
If you’re anything like me, you’re always looking for fresh ideas to make your home feel better, work harder, and look more ‘you’. One of my favourite ways to stay inspired is listening to interior design podcasts while I’m walking the dog, travelling, or pottering about at home. They’re such an easy way to pick up expert advice, hear how other people design their spaces, and feel part of the interiors world even when you’re just folding laundry.
So if you’re looking for new podcasts to add to your rotation this year, here are my pick of the best interior design podcasts to listen to in 2026.
1. How to Home
If you want an interior design podcast that is packed with practical, real-world decorating advice you can actually use, then you need to listen to How to Home podcast. Hosted by two interior stylist Maxine Brady and Gemma Gear, who have over 30 years experience of decorating 1000s of room, every week they deep dive into the decorating decisions people actually struggle with at home.
They cover layout mistakes, colour choices, styling tricks, renovation lessons, budget dilemmas and all the things no one tells you when you start decorating. And there is lots of gossip too on their day jobs as stylists. Maxine and Gemma share the highs and low of decorating their own homes and their client work, so it’s very honest, practical, and focused on helping you create a home that feels right for you.
If you want interiors advice that’s expert but still friendly and relatable, this is a great place to start.
2. The Great Indoors
If you love colour, personality and thoughtful design chat, The Great Indoors is a brilliant listen. Hosted by interior designer Sophie Robinson and journalist Kate Watson-Smyth, this podcast is all about helping you make confident decorating decisions. They tackle everything from colour palettes to layout problems, and their listener Q&A ‘Style Surgery’ episodes are especially useful if you like hearing real decorating dilemmas being solved. It’s warm, knowledgeable and packed with ideas you’ll want to try in your own home.
3. House Guest by Country & Town House
This one is great if you enjoy hearing how creative people think about their homes. Hosted by Country & Town House interiors editor Carole Annett, each episode features a different guest sharing how design shapes their life and work. Guests range from designers to artists and fashion creatives, so you get a really broad perspective on interiors and personal style. It’s inspiring rather than instructional, and perfect if you like listening to thoughtful conversations about design.
4. The Interior Design Business
If you work in interiors, or you’re curious about the industry behind the scenes, this is one of the most useful podcasts out there. Hosted by Susie Rumbold and PR expert Jeff Hayward, The Interior Design Business focuses on the reality of running a design practice. They talk about pricing, marketing, client relationships, project management and everything that comes with working professionally in interiors. It’s practical, honest and really valuable if you’re building a career in this space.

It’s very design-led but still accessible, so you don’t have to be a professional to get something from it.
7. Design Nerds Anonymous
