Flamingo Estate takes a luxury approach to the natural world

Business of Home Podcast

Richard Christiansen started Flamingo Estate as a Covid experiment, selling local produce out of his bookstore’s parking lot. It quickly became something much more: A multifaceted brand that brings a luxury approach to the natural world, selling everything from beauty products to boxes of avocados. Along the way, both celebrity and design have played a key role: Christiansen has collaborated with everyone from Lebron James to Kelly Wearstler, and his home—a refurbished 1940’s spanish-style house in LA’s Highland Park—has been a ‘main character’ in the Flamingo Estate story.  

On this episode of the podcast, Christiansen speaks with host Dennis Scully about learning to love saying no, why consumers need to be tricked into embracing sustainability, and how he struggles between the pressure to get big and the need to stay small.
