David Phoenix's client checklist

David Phoenix had a rocky youth—he left home at a young age and struggled with addiction. But once he settled into sobriety and pursued design, he’s had a charmed career, working with celebrities like Arnold Schwarzenegger and Rob Lowe, his work gracing the cover of Architectural Digest several times, and lines with Hickory Chair and Kravet.   On this episode of the podcast, Phoenix speaks with host Dennis Scully about why it pays to be honest about what you don’t know, the ideal number of employees in a design firm, and why he has it written into his contract that he “installs in solitude.” This episode is sponsored by Ernesta and Crypton LINKS David Phoenix Dennis Scully Business of Home
