Collectors Gene Radio is a deep dive into the nuances of collecting. Hear from collectors and experts from all over the world speak on their passions and hobbies, and ultimately find out whether or not they feel they were born with the "Collectors Gene".
Today on Collectors Gene Radio, I'm joined by Steven Rodel—the Creative Director at Guy Goodfellow, a studio shaped by the namesake's singular vision over 25 years.
Steven works closely with Guy and that legacy, helping bring to life interiors that thread eras together with grace, intuition, and a rare kind of spatial intelligence.
The studio's work doesn't shout. It unfolds. And draws you in slowly to rooms built on quiet conviction.
We explore the idea of design as a form of collecting. Steven speaks to the delicate choreography behind layering decades, balancing restraint with richness, and knowing when a single object should lead—and when it should take a step back. There's a certain kind of magic in the studio's work. It doesn't rely on spectacle. Instead, it reveals itself slowly—through the tension of textures, the conversation between eras, and the placement of one well-loved object beside another.
In many ways, Steven's role is less about decoration and more about composition—an ongoing act of collecting, editing, and storytelling.
So without further adieu, this is Steven Rodel, for Collectors Gene Radio.
