From Farrow & Ball to Fermoie: Martin Ephson's surprising journey
Martin Ephson is a driving force behind not one but two well-known names in the design industry. In 1992, he and his business partner Tom Helme took over what was then a struggling historical paint company, Farrow and Ball. Together, they helped turn it into the powerhouse it is today—but they weren’t finished. In 2012 Ephson and Helme partnered again to launch Fermoie, a vertically integrated fabric and wallcoverings brand that has since grown by leaps and bounds. On this episode of the podcast Ephson speaks with host Dennis Scully about why so many British companies are coming to America; how the global decline of textile mills created a local opportunity; and why his leadership style boils down to a simple principle: Look after people, and they’ll look after your business.This episode is sponsored by LoloiLINKSFermoieDennis ScullyBusiness of Home

Now Feng is looking to add technology into the mix with the launch of his own AI company, DecorX. On this episode of the podcast, he speaks with host Dennis Scully about the confusing state of the furniture industry today, balancing high design with commercial appeal, and why he thinks, over time, AI will transform every part of the industry.
