I’m your host, Anastasia Casey, and today we’re exploring one of my very favorite corners of design that is often overlooked on this show—hospitality design. Joining me is Amanda Jacobs, founder and principal designer of Amanda Jacobs Design, a studio known for creating boutique hospitality spaces that are both deeply intentional and wildly memorable. This episode is a powerful reminder that good design isn’t just about the way a space looks—it’s about the way it makes people feel. Amanda and her team approach every project with storytelling, sensory experience, and soul at the forefront, blending elevated aesthetics with true hospitality. Whether she’s designing a hotel lobby, a cafe, or a wellness retreat, her work invites people in and makes them feel cared for—something we could all use a little more of. In this conversation, Amanda shares how she vets aligned clients, her exact process for crafting emotionally resonant spaces, and why she believes thoughtful design has the power to shape culture. If you’re ready to move beyond “looking cool” and design with more heart, more soul, and more staying power—this episode is for you.Holy Grale Project ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/the-interior-collective-5440287/episodes/the-power-of-emotional-design-in-boutique-hospitality-with-amanda-jacobs/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-interior-collective-5440287/the-power-of-emotional-design-in-boutique-hospitality-with-amanda-jacobs.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
