In this episode, I’m joined by Alexander Widener
(@Alexander_Widener) — a designer and storyteller whose world
blends deep-rooted tradition with intentional living. After years
in New York’s fast-paced interiors industry, Alexander made the
move to coastal Maine, trading the city for a quieter life shaped
by history, craft, and care.

We talk about his journey — from working in textiles and
showrooms to opening his own guest cottage and store — and the
values that guide his work: timeless design, slow decorating, and
collecting with purpose. Whether it’s sourcing antiques, working
with artisans, or simply letting a home evolve over time,
Alexander brings a rare depth and warmth to everything he
touches.

If you've ever romanticised a quieter life, craved more meaning
in your space, or felt drawn to the old-world charm of
craftsmanship and character, this one's for you.
