I loved making things in three dimensions and my spare time was spent experimenting with papier mache and moulding clay, then fabrics and fibres. When my two art teachers at secondary school recognised I had an ability &#8211; and told me so &#8211; it made me realise I had a chance at shaping a career out of design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Lh: How did you meet Martin? What led up to your decision to start a firm together?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Jo: Martin and I met at a London-based design firm, he was an Associate and I was an FF&amp;E designer. We were drawn together to work on projects as we had complimentary thought processes and approaches which were slightly different to that studio\u2019s thumbprint. We had both experienced the discipline of traditional interior design aesthetics and learnt a huge amount from it. Martin had worked on Four Season\u2019s in Budapest and Amman, whereas I had cut my teeth on palaces for the Royal Family in Saudi Arabia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There was a connection that seemed to make complete sense and I\u2019d never met anyone else who I\u2019d enjoyed working with so much, so when I left that firm to start a family, I looked Martin in the eye and said if he ever wanted to start a company he should get in touch. It took him three years to do so through LinkedIn!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Jo-Littlefair-Martin-Goddard.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Jo-Littlefair-Martin-Goddard-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Jo Littlefair &amp; Martin Goddard, Co-founders of Goddard Littlefair\" class=\"wp-image-45855\" width=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Jo-Littlefair-Martin-Goddard-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Jo-Littlefair-Martin-Goddard-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Jo-Littlefair-Martin-Goddard.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Jo Littlefair &amp; Martin Goddard, Co-founders of Goddard Littlefair<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Lh: Was there a specific &#8220;this is it&#8221; moment when you thought to yourself my career is really taking off?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Jo: I\u2019m very self-critical and dislike staying still or reflecting backwards for too long and so having a \u2018this is it\u2019 moment would feel incredibly self-congratulatory and satisfied, whereas I believe we\u2019re on a journey to be the best version of ourselves we can be. Having said that, I\u2019m extremely proud of what we have achieved and being recognised as Hotel Designer of the Year in 2019 definitely made me do a double-take!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.goddardlittlefair.com\/projects\/hilton-dubrovnik\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Goddard-Littlefair-hilton-imperial-dubrovnik-lobby.jpg\" alt=\"Hilton Imperial Dubrovnik lobby design by Goddard Littlefair\" class=\"wp-image-45881\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Goddard-Littlefair-hilton-imperial-dubrovnik-lobby.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Goddard-Littlefair-hilton-imperial-dubrovnik-lobby-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Goddard-Littlefair-hilton-imperial-dubrovnik-lobby-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Hilton Imperial Dubrovnik lobby design by Goddard Littlefair<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Lh: How has the current global pandemic affected your business?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Jo: Right now we are really lucky that technology has enabled us all to continue working from our homes and I think it will change the way we work in the future. As an employer, we\u2019ve recognised the possible flexibility this could bring to our studio but we do still value the speed and subtlety of interaction that you have in a face-to-face meeting. Material boards are so much easier to compile in a library and colour and tactility are hard to convey over a Zoom call.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Lh: Do you have any thoughts on how COVID-19 will change the future of hospitality and commercial design?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Jo: We have debated this at length within our team and externally with our clients and some of the hotel brands as well. The fundamental message that we are picking up on is that people like to be together and they want to travel again. How we do this may have to change in the short term<br>but, assuming that pandemics are not annual events, eventually, we see people\u2019s desire to laugh, hug and socialise together will come to the fore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.goddardlittlefair.com\/projects\/juliet-rose\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"454\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Juliet-Rose-View-to-rear-shelving-screen-dividing-bar-from-hotel-lobby-1920x852-1024x454.jpg\" alt=\"Juliet Rose, Munich, designed by Goddard Littlefair\" class=\"wp-image-45867\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Juliet-Rose-View-to-rear-shelving-screen-dividing-bar-from-hotel-lobby-1920x852-1024x454.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Juliet-Rose-View-to-rear-shelving-screen-dividing-bar-from-hotel-lobby-1920x852-300x133.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Juliet-Rose-View-to-rear-shelving-screen-dividing-bar-from-hotel-lobby-1920x852-768x341.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Juliet-Rose-View-to-rear-shelving-screen-dividing-bar-from-hotel-lobby-1920x852.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Juliet Rose, Munich<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In the meantime, we as designers are looking at the way we lay spaces out and the materiality that we select to try to keep hotels as humane as possible but offering the owners options in terms of being able to give people more privacy. We feel it\u2019s important not to make knee-jerk reactions but recognise that there may be more emphasis on in-room and private dining space in the short term. Resorts may fare better right now as perceived safe havens and that travellers will be planning trips with much more care. We predict leisure guests will want to have a more experience-led stay with an emphasis on wellness of mind and body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.goddardlittlefair.com\/projects\/portland-house\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/portlandHouse1-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"portland house london spa and wellness center\" class=\"wp-image-45871\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/portlandHouse1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/portlandHouse1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/portlandHouse1-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/portlandHouse1.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Portland House, London<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/2020\/05\/24\/35-stunning-dream-vacations-for-after-lockdown\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">35 Stunning Dream Vacations for After Lockdown<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Lh: What has your experience been like working as a female leader in the male-dominated world of architecture?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Jo: I do think the perception of women in this industry is improving and I hope to be able to keep pushing this forward. I\u2019ve definitely had some negative experiences and you have to prove yourself over and above male colleagues in order to earn that respect. However, I think being a woman can be an advantage, we communicate and see things in different ways and we should be calmly confident and believe in our abilities.
