In 2020, Lisa Burdus packed up her life in Australia and moved to the Cotswolds for what was meant to be three months. Six years on and she's still there, running her interior design business across two continents and calling it her "gap chapter." 

In this episode of The Edit, Lisa tells Home Beautiful Editor-in-Chief Elle Lovelock about hunting down a decades-old British rock star for Jeremy Clarkson’s man bar, why trust is the one non-negotiable in every client relationship, and how a stint working behind the scenes on Domestic Blitz taught her to be fearless with colour. 

Plus, Lisa shares the story behind the 150-year-old Italian tiles she tracked down solo on a weekend trip, and why food will always be her love language.
