Irwin Weiner
"Follow your instincts," advises Irwin. "Surround yourself with things that thrill you." This photograph was taken by noted interior design photographer Thomas Loof.
-
Nicola Chernicoff
"Just have fun with it," says Nicola. "Home design should be filled with a lot of wit. Don't ever take it too seriously." Photo credit: dewdrop photography and design.

Irwin Goes Flower Power
Co-host Irwin Weiner mugs for the camera. Fittingly, this Cape Town born-and-raised designer chose a flower originally from his native South Africa to hide behind.

Quick-Change Artist
Sporting a huge suitcase filled with clothes and accessories, Nicola Chernicoff had a surprising vast array of wardrobe changes during the first day of filming. Here's a glamorous off-the-shoulder look, with Nicola's best accessory of all, her radiant smile.
-
Waiting to Roll
Irwin and Nicola share a calm pre-camera moment on the set. The picture behind them is British artist Terry Shave's "What If?" This tri-panel piece was custom-framed by Irwin. The central image is a microscopic photograph of glue particles, in case you were wondering.

Ready on the Set
Gino, our podcast director, helps Nicola and Irwin prepare a tabletop set prior to shooting.
-
Accessorize!
Irwin and Nicola prepare to shoot a podcast segment on home accessories, preparing to show off a collection of silver and ivory on the Japanese shelving unit behind Irwin and some lovely French deco pots beside Nicola. Other fine accessories in the picture: the round deco table from France on the left, the outrageously beautiful 17th Century drawer-leaf table on the right, and the downright stunning footwear on our co-hosts.

Closeup
Irwin and Nicola are "in frame" as they prepare to discuss the ivory and silver accessories behind them. Boom mike on the upper left, and each host wired for sound, they're ready for another take.
-
Party Boat!
Nicola and her husband Andrew celebrated their 40th birthdays recently by treating guests to a party cruise around the tip of Manhattan. The birthday girl poses with co-host Irwin on the back deck. The lights of the Brooklyn Bridge twinkle in the background. Happy Birthday, Nicola!

Radiant Nicola
Nicola is her usual beaming self on board the party boat where she and husband Andrew celebrated their 40th birthdays. A lovely couple!
