What if you could text a friend who just gets home design\u2014who knows the difference between a globe pendant and a drum shade, or what color temperature works best in a hallway? Meet Schoolhouse Switchboard<\/strong>, your new go-to resource for all things lighting, design, renovation, and DIY.<\/p>\n

Inspired by Food52\u2019s long-running community hotline\u2014where home cooks can drop a question 24\/7 (and even leave a voicemail!)\u2014we\u2019re bringing that same real-time, personalized advice to the world of home design. This time, it\u2019s all happening over at our sister brand, Schoolhouse, and instead of cooking questions, we\u2019re here for your lighting layout conundrums, rug-sizing woes, paint debates, and more.<\/p>\n

No phone line this time\u2014but your direct line to help is still wide open. DM us at @shswitchboard<\/strong><\/a> or email [email\u00a0protected]<\/a><\/strong>. Whether you\u2019re deep in a DIY or just wondering which fixture finishes pair well with warm-toned wood, we\u2019ve got you.<\/p>\n

So, who\u2019s answering your questions?<\/h2>\n

Jordan Andrew, Resident Hotline Expert<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jordan has been a creative spirit from the very beginning\u2014designing outfits in coloring books at age three and reinventing her bedroom by twelve. In college, she followed her passion for art and design, exploring career paths that allowed her to turn creativity into a way of life. After years of hands-on experience in residential remodeling, she launched A Creative Approach<\/em>\u2014a company dedicated to helping people unlock their own creative vision, whether in their home, wardrobe, or brand.<\/p>\n

Her love of content creation and community building eventually led her to Schoolhouse, where she\u2019s now the face (and voice!) of the Switchboard. She\u2019s here to make home design feel accessible, inspiring, and\u2014most importantly\u2014fun.<\/p>\n

You’ll mostly be hearing from Jordan, but there’s other experts on-call including Chelsea Harris<\/strong><\/a>.
\nAs the lead copywriter at Schoolhouse, Chelsea\u2019s always in conversation with designers, craftspeople, and makers, and she\u2019s excited to bring those ideas straight to your inbox and Instagram feed.<\/p>\n

In her own words:
\n\u201cI\u2019ve always had a soft spot for DIY\u2014probably because I grew up watching my dad build our house from the ground up (yes, really). Now I\u2019m deep in my own renovation journey, bringing my 1928 fixer-upper back to life and learning everything as I go. I\u2019ve tiled the shower, gutted the kitchen, built custom built-ins\u2014you name it. I love the big, messy projects just as much as the quick, satisfying ones, like refreshing a vintage piece or color-drenching a room. For me, it\u2019s all about making a space feel personal, playful, and totally you (and what better way to do that than by doing it yourself).”<\/p>\n
