Design by the Numbers

Through the Lens with Jessica Delaney. Some things are just kismet. And this friendship? It all started with a DM. This week on Bill to...etc., Dina and Ariana welcome longtime friend, creative collaborator, and IFDA's 2026 Photographer of the Year, Jessica Delaney! From collaborating on DIY projects in their own homes over 15 years ago to building award winning careers, Dina and Jess reflect on how far they've come, the fleeting excitement of industry recognition, and why we rarely stop to celebrate our accomplishments. Plus, they're talking all things interior photography. Why do designers choose different photographers? Should photographers have a signature aesthetic, or should the personality of the space lead the way? A conversation about creative growth, staying true to your work, and the friendships that make it all worthwhile.Follow Us!

The Beigeness of America. When did everything start looking exactly the same? This week on Bill to...etc., Dina and Ariana are questioning how we went from embracing color, personality, and individuality to a world of neutral basics, copycat interiors, and perfectly curated aesthetics. From Pinterest algorithms influencing our wardrobes to the rise of "coastal grandma" and the obsession with recreating Nancy Meyers interiors, they're asking: Are we actually developing our own taste, or just buying whatever is being put in front of us? And when did COLOR become a luxury? Dina and Ari break down how trends, social media, and the pressure to fit into an aesthetic are influencing the way we dress, shop, and design our homes. Because you can buy the look, but you can't buy personality. And maybe that's exactly what's missing.Follow Us!

Cousins, Not Sisters. How do you design two rooms that feel connected without making them look identical? This week on Bill to...etc., Dina, Ariana, and Alex are breaking down the art of designing rooms with direct sightlines, especially in traditional New England homes where living rooms, dining rooms, and foyers are often visually connected. From mixing patterns and coordinating color palettes to choosing rugs, lighting, and finishes, the team shares their approach to giving each room its own personality while maintaining a cohesive design. Plus, Dina reveals the Honey & Fitz Interiors 3, 2, 1 formula: three things that connect the rooms, two things that make them different, and one subtle detail that bridges them together. Because connecting rooms should feel like cousins, not sisters. Related, but never identical.Follow Us!

Construction is expensive, and the pretty stuff comes later. In this episode of Bill to...etc, we’re breaking down the real cost of construction and renovation, from the foundation and framing to the layers of a home that have to be addressed before you ever choose the wallpaper or lighting.
