For years, Rosemary Hallgarten juggled a busy career in advertising with creative pursuits on the side. Then in the 1990s, a commission for a designer kick-started a fledgling rug business, and she was off to the races. Over two decades, Hallgarten has built a brand around neutral colors and sumptuous textures, bringing shearling rugs and alpaca boucle to a growing fan base.
On this episode of the podcast, she speaks with host Dennis Scully about why she held on to her day job for five years, the rise of knockoffs and the challenges of moving from the chaos of creativity to the order of a streamlined business.
