Success by Design - Mastering the Business of Interior Design
Vegas Market 2025: Bold Interior Design Trends and Statement Décor
What happens in Vegas doesn’t stay in Vegas — especially when Success by Design gets the inside scoop from the market floor. In this week’s can’t-miss episode, Katie sits down with Diana Ruston on her team and fresh off the plane to unpack the good, the bad, and the downright bizarre from the latest Las Vegas Market.
This isn’t just another trends episode. It’s a no-holds-barred conversation about what’s really happening in design — from West Coast market shifts to high-gloss regrets and why petrified wood may just be the hero we didn’t know we needed.
Tease-worthy Takeaways:
The truth about Velvet: On its way out or finally having its moment?
The return of grandma’s curio cabinet… with a twist you won’t believe
Why Vegas Market may be losing its grip — and what that means for West Coast designers
From mustard to merlot combos to military-inspired textures, the colors and style shifts shaking up showrooms
You’ll never guess which animal is trending in artwork — but you’ll baa in surprise
Plus: We settle the ultimate Two Truths and a Lie: Market Edition. Can you spot the lie?
This is the episode that has Katie saying, “Bring a glass of wine… I’m still not over the fabric-in-a-curio moment.”

This episode of Mastering the Business of Interior Design: Success by Design is brought to you in partnership with Leah Bryant Co.
I'm your host, Katie Erickson
I’m a commercial exterior and interior designer with an MBA and nearly 20 years in the industry. When I’m not leading my coast-to-coast, multi-million dollar firm, I love sharing real talk on the business of design, blending insights from 20 years as a business professor. I keep it honest—balancing work and chasing my two girls around.
