## Resource

If you have a friend who loves interior design, then you’ve likely seen a coffee table book by a certain photographer in their personal collection. On this episode, Dan meets a beloved photographer known for his keen eye and unparalleled access: Francois Halard. The pairs speak about how he got his start in the world of magazines, including his many years at various Condé Nast, the success of his eponymous first three books with Rizzoli, and his latest, “Francois Halard: Art & Flowers” that moves his art from the photographic documentation of spaces to unique works of fine art.
