The Hog Ring - Listen to Jeremy Carlson of Avant-Garde Design on NC Shop Talk!

Tune in to the latest episode of NC Shop Talk to hear Jeremy Carlson of Avant-Garde Design in Palm City, Florida, talk about innovation and the future of car interiors.

NC Shop Talk is the industry’s first podcast. It’s hosted by Mal Maher of NC Carpet Binding & Equipment.

On the podcast, Jeremy discusses the role of technology — like 3D scanning, CNS stitching and AI — in designing innovative interiors, the source of his passion, and the challenges and rewards of balancing work, family and a growing business.

Jeremy Carlson Talks Innovation and the Future of Interiors

Jeremy Carlson’s commitment to perfection, passion for craftsmanship and bold vision for the future of custom car interiors have made Avant-Garde Design a unique name in the industry. In this episode, Jeremy opens up about how he started Avant-Garde Design, his journey from car audio to upholstery, and how his team creates some of the most innovative interiors in the business.

From perfecting the art of high-end custom interiors to pushing the envelope with cutting-edge technologies like 3D printing and CNC stitching, Avant-Garde Design is always ahead of the curve. But it’s not just about tech — Jeremy shares how his Midwestern values of family, respect and integrity drive every aspect of his business. “You can turn off a budget, you can ignore a budget, but it’s tough to put your passion, your goals aside to try to make it less.”
