This Colorful Quirky Home Is A Must-See!
This Colorful Quirky Home Is A Must-See!
In this must-see makeover, designer Emily Griffin takes you inside a cheerful home packed with personality. See how she transformed a dated Victorian with a mix of color, pattern and texture. Playful design elements — like sunny wallpaper in the entryway, a bright yellow English roll-arm sofa in the living room and quirky sconces in the dining room — add whimsy to the space’s original bones. Plus, you’ll be awestruck by the impressive kitchen makeover, where a moveable island, ample counter space and innovative storage shine.

Really nice and chic!!!
I think it is beautiful, spacious and breezy more than being full of sunlight which is sometimes not needed like a house with a beautiful tree or trees for making use of scattered sunlight for effect and feeling nice as per the idea.
Lovely!
Perfect
These types of homes are quite common in India…we have these kind of colourful homes
Lipstick on a pig? wtf??💄🐷
Just a thought, would the dinning look a bit more balanced and dramatic if you have raised the level of the deep blue to perhaps 60" instead of 40. It would relieve the eye line being all in one level of the room. Enjoyed your video, thanks.
Luv it now…. bright and colourful…. Luv colors
Love the house
This house morely looks like INDIAN home
Now THIS is the kind of home I want to live in. I love, love, love colour! Great Job!
Bravissima!!!!!!!!!🏵️🏵️🏵️🌿☘️🌱
This is so creative.
BEAUTIFUL 💛
Awesome home
I have watched this house video over and over the last couple of months. Just finished my sunporch and living room, and people are giving me similar comments about how joyful the space is. Exactly what I was needing after losing my sister’s husband to suicide, then my dad to Dementia three weeks later. My happy, colorful house is keeping me from falling into a full on depression.
Lovely! I love the way the colors just kind of all mesh! It looks totally unique. It is psychedelic and cool.
this looks nice and all but the amount of dusting to be done in this home would be difficult to imagine. I would personally never decorate my home this much.
This is so Me 😊😍
Art in this house is so good!
I love the splash of vibrant colours every where.its awesome.
I do simple home. I like colour in. I feel that normal.
it’s my dream home style. so colorful💜🧡❤
Imagine living in this house when you have a depressive episode…
No to the fur vest hanging in the foyer…
It kinda looks like a Mexican casa
That’s what a home 🏠 looks like
its gorgeous the colours are so vibrant and unique im not brave enough to try it but it has given me a lot of ideas to do up my place
already dated
J adore👍👍👍👍
So sunny and beautiful!
Those baskets above the fireplace are actually a copy of traditional Rwandese baskets. Nice touch.
Looks like lively modern Indian houses 💕
A designed home. All need a livable place. It is living.
Is really out standing, I love the yellow colour entrance and sofa make the more calming 😀
What color is on the walls? Su hijo a beatificación crea y white
Beautiful work. Why do designers say "Really" all the time? Like they do not believe in their work. Really?
Realy?
I love colors
This is the no.. 1 of all the H&H
Wow 💖 dream house😍
Yes to colour!
Ugly.
Where did you get the baskets from?
Love this home. It is bright, colourful and very me. Wish I had the cash to change everything in my home!
Gorgeous home. Bright and lively. But why put the sofa in front of the bay window 🤔 loved the kitchen.
I just love everything about this place…
beautiful home, it just feel cosy and safe. Great job
colourful, yet soooo tasteful, and beautiful. I’ve seem some designers totally create a mess with colour, one i won’t mention made a dining room look like a kid’s playground.
Impressive 🥰positive vibes
