Amanda sits down with Alfredo Paredes—founder of Alfredo Paredes Studio and former Chief Creative Officer of Ralph Lauren—for a personal conversation on creativity, timeless design, and building a four-decade career at the highest level of the industry. Reflecting on more than 30 years shaping Ralph Lauren’s visual world, including the creation of iconic spaces like The Polo Bar, Alfredo shares the experiences that formed his aesthetic and the philosophy that guides his work today.

Together, they explore why great design begins with listening, the importance of preserving the soul of historic homes, and why timeless environments always outlast trends. The conversation also touches on well-being through space, new creative projects, and how Alfredo now defines success, legacy, and home at this stage of his life.
