Sal, Miriam, and Hilary of Mimi and Hill Designs shared their design approach. They emphasized the importance of knowing their clients, drawing inspiration from their diverse backgrounds, and creating a home that is unique and sacred to each family. They identified collaboration as a key factor in their success, highlighting the importance of teamwork and the value of not being an expert in everything.

They discussed the importance of talent and hard work in their design industry. Miriam emphasized that while talent is essential, it must be coupled with diligence and motivation to succeed. She pointed out that her company has created a work environment that prioritizes work-life balance and respect for personal life, which in turn fosters dedication to their business.

They also talked about the importance of managing client expectations and protecting their business from potential issues. At Mimi & Hill, they stressed the need to be proactive in finding solutions to problems, rather than blaming others. They also talked about the necessity of having a cushion of funds to cover unexpected expenses, such as correcting mistakes or replacing non-returnable items, to maintain their business's reputation and client relations.
