In episode 17 I am talking with Fameed Khalique. Fameed shares his journey from aspiring airline pilot to becoming a prominent figure in the Interior Design industry. He started his career in fashion shows and PR, then worked in publishing and logistics before joining his brother's company, Alma Leather, where he learned about the interior design community. After five years, he left and started his own business, curating a vast collection of materials for both couture and ready-to-wear projects. Fameed emphasises the importance of being resourceful, having a good eye, and being open to new experiences. Fameed Khalique is the founder of Fameed Khalique, a luxury materials consultancy and supplier. Throughout our conversation, he discusses the importance of materials in design and how his company helps designers and architects bring their visions to life. He talks about the value of creating mood boards and offering advice to clients, as well as the challenges of sampling and the need for better communication between designers and suppliers. Fameed also shares his insights on the business lessons he has learned and his plans for the future.
