Welcome to The Stories Between; a podcast brought to you by Coexistence . As we mark our 50th year of business, we have produced this series to celebrate the relationships we have made on our journey so far. At Coexistence, we strive to embody a philosophy that blends creativity with connections. Our focus is not solely on the transactional aspects but on building authentic relationships with our valued clients, suppliers and partners. Each project and conversation is an opportunity to connect on a personal level, understanding the unique perspectives and aspirations that shape our collective goal. Design excellence and meaningful human connections are intertwined, and we owe our success not only to the projects we're involved in, but in the richness of the relationships we have established and nurtured, and are lucky to have. Join our host, Rachel Bull, for conversations that go beyond the surface, with some of the people that have helped shape our path, as well as building new connections for the future. Rachel talks to cultural and creative leaders about their careers, exploring the relationships and connections that have helped shape them, and get each guest to where they are today. In each episode, we will journey into the world of design, business, relationships and the stories between. The Stories Between is produced by Coexistence, with audio production by Benedict Tufnell .

On this episode, we spoke to Ashima Jain - Vice President of Global Creative + Retail Design for MALIN+GOETZ . It’s where she has spent the past 10 years working on global advertising campaigns, photoshoots, and designing apothecaries around the world. Based in New York City, she has lent her talents and passion to some of the most well-known American lifestyle brands, including Victoria's Secret, Estée Lauder, Condé Nast, and The New York Times.

Today’s episode is with Daniel Schofield – a British designer based between Copenhagen and London. Daniel is one of the UK’s most promising designers, and has already won various awards, such as the Design Guild Mark and the Elle Decoration British Design Award for Furniture. Often found sketching on a scrap of paper, Daniel’s background is in art, graphic design and carpentry. This evolved into a passion for design, culminating in a degree in furniture and product design at Sheffield Hallam University. Daniel's tutor at University was Roger Bateman, who put him in touch with Coexistence 's Managing Director, Dan Gay, who after graduating, worked as Roger’s design assistant. Dan subsequently offered Schofield a part-time role at Coexistence, which opened his eyes to the furniture industry. Aiming to create timeless and useful products, Daniel focuses on solving problems and finds beauty in simplicity.
