    What happened to the family?

    This layout is absolutely gorgeous. The matte gold or name against the grey/navy wall colour is beautiful. The plants are gorgeous. There’s a bit too much on the table so I’d take away the tray and the silver centerpiece. I like the idea of the striped stool, it’s adds a modern touch

    What an awful design. You just smashed a bunch of furniture & accessories in a space…

  6. GST2 S on February 24, 2021 at 9:59 pm

    Did she get a commission on the furniture purchases? Way too overcrowded.

  7. Diana Brunton on February 24, 2021 at 10:01 pm

    There is a crystal sphere on the table between the two black chairs. Can you tell me where it came from? Thanks

    the room turned out to be absolutely beautiful, but i do feel like i wasted time waiting on the tips and tricks-a more honest title would be cool!

  9. Lorenzo on February 24, 2021 at 10:05 pm

    Open bookcases = dust collectors

  10. DesertDaisy Marie on February 24, 2021 at 10:07 pm

    Not a room for my son unless he’s sedated 🙄

  11. Pao Pao on February 24, 2021 at 10:07 pm

    This title is misleading

  12. KLo GroSewFlow on February 24, 2021 at 10:08 pm

    This is a beautifully styled room, really love the mix of contemporary with rustic and traditional. But I don’t see how it could be kid-friendly at all.

  13. Sumida Ryogoku on February 24, 2021 at 10:08 pm

    So laguna biotch

  17. Rosemary Williams on February 24, 2021 at 10:10 pm

    Such a cool job =)

  18. mybestideas1 on February 24, 2021 at 10:11 pm

    So they both her ‘life’. The accessories are supposed to be eclectic and personal – a reflection of who you are and what you cherish. This is blah, bought personality which has no personality. Design without soul.

  19. Erin Hewitt on February 24, 2021 at 10:11 pm

    What are they trying to do? Wasting my time.

  20. L * on February 24, 2021 at 10:11 pm

    looks like a show room…like all the stuff is on display for sale.

  21. Doctors n Politicians are Frauds on February 24, 2021 at 10:12 pm

    everything these days is so shallow.
    all surface all window dressing all bollocks.

  22. Ren G on February 24, 2021 at 10:14 pm

    Beautiful rug indeed! Must have cost a fortune though.

  23. Clara Vrsnik on February 24, 2021 at 10:16 pm

    Horrible. Terrible taste 😲😨😩😬😵

  24. Lorna Marie on February 24, 2021 at 10:21 pm

    It’s just a bunch of stuff thrown together. I’m sure you could have created this with anything in that shop. It’s just haphazard

  25. Ren G on February 24, 2021 at 10:22 pm

    Too many glasses to break.

  26. Sejuty Chowdhury on February 24, 2021 at 10:22 pm

    Looks too busy

  27. Pasesi Interiors on February 24, 2021 at 10:23 pm

    I like the lighting piece

  28. nycgraphist on February 24, 2021 at 10:24 pm

    Looks heavy, old and tired.

  29. Laura on February 24, 2021 at 10:26 pm

    I love all the pieces, that stool w/ the zebra print on it is thee perfect touch. Cowhide is in now & I think it pulls in that vibe, amazing job guys 👏🏼🤗🙌🏼💕

    Tips and Tricks? A rich woman spending money!

  31. M L on February 24, 2021 at 10:28 pm

    Looks pretty temporarily. In case of a tornado or earthquake, so much glass and heavy objects are super dangerous for a family. Think on SAFETY before adding so many dangerous objects.

  32. PM N on February 24, 2021 at 10:30 pm

    The only this that sofa is good for would be sleeping. Did you notice how deep the seat is, like a double bed. Not to mention, if this is a family room, there is no place for a television.

  33. Sandy G. on February 24, 2021 at 10:31 pm

    Love it!

  34. Helluminati on February 24, 2021 at 10:34 pm

    So posh…:S I don’t get cosy family feeling at all. This looks more like a room where kids can absolutely not go. Lots of glass and expensive looking materials. I can see a married lawyer couple living there…

  35. Roby Xander on February 24, 2021 at 10:35 pm

    Sorry I had to stop the video in less than a minute playing and hit the unlike button because I already knew it’s not going to be worth it. A lot of talks and all but where’s the tips and tricks? Yikes!

  36. Isi Prom on February 24, 2021 at 10:36 pm

    The shelf Behind the sofa bad idea sorry 😞

  37. Omar Aldulaimi on February 24, 2021 at 10:37 pm

    It is one of the worst decorations that I have ever seen

  38. missy Sanz on February 24, 2021 at 10:39 pm

    Love it all but stop chopping pillows !!! Pillows are meant to be an added comfort and a touch of color or texture, not to be crushed up

  39. Designer Window Fashions on February 24, 2021 at 10:40 pm

    This is a dream room. It’s not a real living situation. In real life with families, you talk about how a room will be used and who is using it. Their concept was living/den for a family, but in reality, I know of no family ( I think adults with kids ) could keep it looking orderly. The thing about these lovely sophisticated dreams rooms is if one or two things out of place, and the mood is ruined. Imagine toys and games and a dog’s chew toys in the room…now that is reality! Can’t you just picture kids jumping up and down on that big sofa?

  40. Valentina Boshnakova on February 24, 2021 at 10:42 pm

    For those who asked about the no fail tips:
    1. First make a floor plan to figure out what furniture pieces are needed where, how large and considering room flow.
    2. Secondly choose a rug that you love. From there select wall collor and overall pallete.
    3. Use enormous mirror and more mirror surfaces to make the space look larger and brighter, especially when dark moody colours are used.
    4. Choose the comfiest sofa.
    5. Use a space devider such as open book shelves.
    6. Use plants and floweres.
    7. Use a bench for extra seating and conversation but not obstucting the view.
    8. Use impressive chandelier for a luxutrious vision.

    That’s what I draw from the video. Although for me the space is overly decorated with meaningless objects and feels cold and impersonal.

  41. L Dew on February 24, 2021 at 10:45 pm

    Family room? I’m thinking children too. Reflective surfaces and little fingerprints, no tv? Cream couch?, been there, done that.

  42. Molly Reed on February 24, 2021 at 10:46 pm

    This is perfect!

  43. Bruissays on February 24, 2021 at 10:47 pm

    No Neck Ed is a interior designer

  44. V. R. on February 24, 2021 at 10:47 pm

    Don’t like it, it looks cold and overfilled

  45. meemo32086 on February 24, 2021 at 10:48 pm

    What is that wall color? I’d love it in my north facing bedroom!!

  46. Castillo wedding on February 24, 2021 at 10:49 pm

    Where can I purchase Benjamine more paint ?

  47. Nomad for life on February 24, 2021 at 10:50 pm

    Nothing new in tips and grating voice irritating.

  48. Graciela Basilio on February 24, 2021 at 10:51 pm

    Beautiful 👍👍

  49. Victor Hawkins on February 24, 2021 at 10:51 pm

    That Mercedes 300 SL Gullwing triptych is bitchin’!!!

  50. MKP Spirit on February 24, 2021 at 10:52 pm

    At last. Deep rich color! Show us more videos with wood trim and deep color walls. I’m not able or willing to whitewash my interior.
