TDF Talks With Artist & Designer Rachel Castle

Rachel Castle grew up in country Victoria and originally studied PR at RMIT, before moving to the UK for work. A change of pace came after she had children and returned to Australia. Craving an outlet for her creativity, she began making embroideries and artworks for friends, and started designing products. Before long, her much-loved brand ‘Castle’ was born.

FYI, TDF Talks is an enhanced podcast. So, if you’re using the Overcast or Pocket Casts apps, you will see images and links in your player while you listen.

Notes + Links

I had the pleasure of recording this podcast with Rachel at her beautiful home (which we featured earlier this year) in Northbridge, Sydney.

After studying PR at RMIT in Melbourne, Rachel worked at Country Road locally, before moving to the UK and taking up a job at Conran Shop.

Following this, she co-founded The Nest branding agency, and later return to Australia where she launched her own brand of bed linen, soft furnishings and original artwork: Castle.

A few years ago we also ran an Extraordinary Routines feature with the busy, mother and creative entrepreneur.

This was our 14th podcast (wow!!), you can listen to some more episodes here.

Thanks for listening!
