Hellooo, it's Tamara the 3D renderer! Thank you so much for the lovely comments and thank you to Caroline for being the best client and Paige for displaying my work in such a lovely way ahhh this is wild. xx
Your renders were great! The little corner with the chair and the shelf thing to rest a cup on was awesome, you managed to capture the vibe they were looking for perfectly IMO. Awesome work, glad Caroline gave you a shot and collab'd with you on this one because the end result was really worth it
I would love that, especially if it allows Caroline to discuss something that NEVER comes up in home decor content: the fact that once the designer walks away, you're on your own, and maybe it's a struggle to make your space live up to the recommendations, and that's fine. Also fine: taking inspiration from the recommendations but not following them to the letter.
I would love to see more tips on decorating with stuff you already own (mismatched furniture/decor/etc.) or super low budgets, like for students/other young people trying to transition into more adult spaces. A lot of times the TH-cam advice is just "thrift!" but thrift stores and facebook marketplace listings aren't always the best in the suburbs.
Yes! I thrifted all my furniture in college and I find I’m most interested now in either buying strategic furniture I don’t own (comfy chairs) or maximizing the potential of items I already thrifted when I was 20.
This is the best. I like to switch my decór from living to hall to room to ... And it brings smth new to look at. Trying to change the layout untill you're satisfied. Play around.
I spend more time watching you, when I need to be working on my own home. But I'm 70, so what the hell. Love watching you, and you always cheer me up. Moved into my 1945 small home just last year and have not unpacked any more than needed. My husband died in 2021 and I am still in a slump. One of these days you will motivate me enough to get unpacked. Keep being your authentic self as you are truly one in a million!! MB
sending lots of strenght! hope you can make your space feel like home and gather a renewed freshness in life while having to live with all that grief. Maybe, once you're ready design some designated area in memory of your husband, with photos and decor & little items that remind you of him? That way you can keep something of him close to you but wont have to be reminded of it all the time as it might be with his memories being scattered throughout your home. But that's just an idea, since we have something like this for my grandpa, and maybe its common enough to be silly advise, and maybe it would just make it harder for you, I don't know. All the best from a random stranger ❤
A very official THANK YOU! We've struggled so much with decorating the living room because it has two entryways and one big window and it felt and looked wrong however we turned the couch. We've now sold the couch, moved the bookshelf and the chair and we are looking for another, bigger dark wood table. Happy to share the finished result! Also you are so cute and kind and funny and you make my life happier! And it's so amazing that you keep lifting other women and just doing so much creative sht with lot of creative h:s! Love you for that!😘😘😘
The step by step renders are kickass, loved the video, it's got so much packed into 30 minutes, shoutout Tamara for that, and also Paige or yourself on the top down views of everything, especially in the 2nd one they really help clarify what's going on. And excited of what's coming in the future! I will repeat it once again but you're just what TH-cam needs right now, feels magical to watch these videos and i feel blessed by the algorithm for having put your channel on my map every time you upload
ahhhh dangit with this freakin sweet comment! all the girls who contributed to this video KILLED IT and it was a freakin honor. and im so glad that's how you're feeling about the channel. i always feel friction (real or imagined) when things take a turn, but i'm so glad things are resonating
@@Caroline_Winkler I'll keep making the sweet comments if you keep uploading textboxes to put them into LOL. I seriously mean that, I've even made a video saying why, it's on my channel from a couple weeks ago lol, it's got your face on the thumbnail. You're an inspiration for people making stuff from the heart but who want to do it in a way that gets impact and in a sustainable manner, for people who in response to the overwhelming nature of the chaos, fragmentation and eclecticness that TH-cam is in 2022/2023 compared to 5-10 years ago, think of the positives , the possibilities, and embrace what can still be done, instead of IMO lesser attitudes like giving up, becoming way too jaded or negative, or, but also not falling for easy narratives and always being thoughtful and respectful of people's perspectives and always contributing from one's own perspective without trying to be totalizing and overreaching, and realizing that that's what's missing the most from the platform. Ambitious people who don't overextend and grab you by the arm in the pursuit of their ambitions, curious people who pay attention to what's happening around them and in the world but don't try to nitpick at the details and the eye-catching drama but instead notice the zeitgeist and put their own spin on it. I think you embody this well and I fully get behind that spirit I get.
Please make this a series! Also have to say, I also love the non-design videos, because they are ACTUALLY relatable and so helpful and thoughtfully done. I’ll have to check out the podcast. I wish you had a TV show, because a lot of the design shows just recycle the same white/gray room every episode lol.
I designed our living room around colors in a pillow! We moved into a new house and had an extra room so there was nothing but the pillow at first. I love that pillow so hard. 20 years after making it, still love it. So starting with something you love is a timeless strategy.
“Visually complicated” is a much nicer way to describe the impact of having too many furniture legs in a space than the quote by Eero Saarinen that I read just yesterday. When designing the tulip table and chairs he said “The undercarriage of chairs and tables in a typical interior makes an ugly, confusing, unrestful world. I wanted to clear up the SLUM of legs. I wanted to make the chair all one thing again.” Well, tell us how you really feel Eero 😮😂. Great video one again Caroline! I love the hanging bench cushions in the breakfast nook.
Go off Eero, whydontcha 😆😆😆 I've always LOVED tulip tables, I'll love them even more every time I see one and think of a slum of furniture legs 😂😂 Also now I feel like I have the perfect license to seek out chairs with minimal legs too.
Oh, Space#2 was quite a challenge! Overlapping functions are rarely fun and spaces like that are usually source of frustration (at least for me) but your suggestions were great! :D I am glad to hear that design will be 25% of the channel. Not that I don't like design, I graduated from architecture university, but I love the vibes of other videos and they inspired me so much. :) I actually have no idea why TH-cam suggested your channel to me months ago, since I never watch design/ architecture stuff anymore, but I am so glad it did and I stuck around since
"i have no idea why youtube suggested your channel" is one of the most common comments i get and i think its one of my favorites. everyone is confused and i agree but im so happy about it
Another fun idea for the breakfast nook would be to incorporate hidden storage space in it! Could be a hidden built in drawer, or you could lift the seating area like it's a chest. Could be the same for the side piece where the turntable is! Could be a good opportunity for a hidden minibar with that one :P Watching this makes me realise any space can become a well designed space when you have the resources and vision for it! Thanks for sharing tips and ideas with us!
as a portuguese subscriber I feel super proud of Tamara!! Loved the renderings!!! ❤️ If Page/subscribers are comfortable with it, maybe they could share an update on how the rooms turned out!
I love the way that you explain that there's no right answer, there's no 'code' to crack, but there’s just ideas and general principles. It makes design feel so much more accessible, which is very exciting for a novice like me!
I am so loving and inspired by the mid-century modern style coming back. It warms up the grey boxy theme that has been so pervasive for the last decade. It also has the ability to lean into other themes like dark acedemia, steampunk, 70s, art deco (geometric) and neavou (organic), bohemian and more...and can use so many hand-me-downs and thrift items. It is also warm, homey and very forgiving to life clutter and wear on furniture. Nothing is sexier than a leather chair worn from gentle use or the edge fading on a loved family dining table.
Also love the step- by-step renderings. It makes it so much easier to follow and understand. I hope you can do an update on these spaces! I would love to see how they turn out, but I also think it will be even more helpful and inspiring to see how they actually interpret your amazing ideas!
I love all your tips for interior design but especially the idea of making a color palette off of one beloved item. I love colors and color combinations so much that I often find it impossible to narrow down the infinite possibilities 🥰
oh good, it's so helpful to me! especially having the assurance of seeing all the color combined together in 1 item and already knowing you love them together
the second client's space tho! the built in breakfast nook is a genius solution, they could utilize the space under the bench to store items. Or! they could buy a coffee table with storage under it, to avoid credenza. loveeee! please make more render videos like this Caroline!
personally i adore this vlog-interior design-celebrity homes-sweet life reflections combo for the channel, it’s things you seem to enjoy doing a lot and it comes off very organically, it feels like that for me. i’ve been enjoying it a lot!
Yes, Lone Fox is a legend for interior design (I, too, started watching him during the pandemic...which is also when I started watching you). The way I see it, he is the West Coast Legend and YOU are the East Coast Legend! TADAAAAAAAAAAA! I love the way you are branching out into other subjects. Life is always a mixture and your channel is reflecting that. Well done. 💖
There’s so much out there on cute bathroom refreshes that are light and airy… but that’s not my reality. I would love to see videos on sprucing up basic small rectangular bathrooms that don’t have any windows, please! Thanks for keeping it real ❤
I feel like your style of making videos got to a new level recently. Love this, and also the last couple of videos you posted. And also every video you ever did to be honest, so... :)
GIRL! thank you for this. i did a lot of reflections over the holidays about how i wanted to change how i plan, write, edit and film videos for 2023. so rewarding to hear that it comes through. i hope to keep it up
The upholstered headboard tip just saved me. I have a blank wall behind my bed and I find bedframes SO expensive. I might just get a very basic one that just holds the mattress and then i could build a headboard myself to my taste. Thats SUCH a good idea!
I love both ideas! That "weird" wall in the second apartment is probably what is left of an old tile heating stove, covering the chimney that the former stove pipe went into.
Caroline your channel has the best interior design content on YT. It's so refreshing, and it's rare for me to find a creator with similar taste as mine. I have hoarding tendencies and you inspired me to finally purge my stuff this past week, and it feels so good ❤️ sending love from Switzerland
Love the plans for Alejandra's space. If you're keeping a pedestal table, I'd paint the base black or bronze and just replace the top with a wood top. I hope we get to see the finished spaces.
This video structure is amazing! Hope it will become a monthly or so feature at the channel. Just got really curious about the results. Please share with us if they ever put your advice into practice.
I started watching your videos for the interior design aspect, however I found you more interesting than your actual interior design talents (please don't get offended). I think you are so creative in the way you present your videos and there are very few people on TH-cam with your actual talent and creativity. You are a a light that shines bright here and I am sure you know that, keep shining girl! I would also like to add that your exercise video was very artistic and I think adding actual music to it made a huge difference! Thank you for making these videos I truly am enjoying watching them.❤
@@nicolepatenaude4266 I can relate! I find myself saying "my Caroline is on tomorrow... my Caroline! They kind of think I'm nuts! But Caroline always puts a smile on my face! She is a ray of sunshine! So glad she popped up on my TH-cam!!
I love that all the advice you give applies to any style. I'm going to be moving internationally soon and I'll be starting from scratch with no furniture, so I'm taking thousands of notes from your videos. Going for "Victorian library in the jungle" vibes for the living room. I don't mind that interior design will be a smaller part of your content going forward, you're just so fun to watch. You always make me laugh! ❤
I found your channel because of the design tips (which are practical and full of knowledge gems-thank you), but I’m staying here because of you. You do you, Caroline ❤
I have been dying to use Punky Brewster as inspo for my craftsman home. I’m here because I love seeing all the stuff you share, Caroline. Not just the interior design
That WAS fun as heck! Loved the looks in both rooms but especially the last one because I thought the dilemmas were HARD to navigate ....wrong! You made it look easy! I came here for design but have come to like your humor and honesty in handling life problems and developing skills.
Caroline! I’ve been binge watching your channel and I just want to thank you for all your content it has been keeping me company in a lonely and difficult time. I’m so glad the algorithm popped you into my feed🙂 I’d love a design video geared towards people with small kids in small houses and how to make things look less chaotic. Right now my house looks like my 5 year old decorated it …because he basically has😂
I LOVE LOVE LOVE this video! Please do some more of these. We live in a 1950s house where previous owner tried to diy with walls and doors that have been such so challenging to work with. These really help!
Love how both the rooms turned out. The living room one is a warm embrace in a cold climate. Getting the lighting right with a warm Kelvin that is bright enough will be key.
I swear to god, every single time I watch a video posted by either you or Paige Wassel, you address the #1 issue that’s been on my mind for days. Thank you for helping me solve all my design problems!!
I would love to see your ideas for a small space like an Airstream camper. We have one a vintage one (1976 Land Yacht) and have such a hard time figuring out how to style it. Great video!
YES! This was such a perfect collaboration video. Nailed it! Thanks for bringing our attention to these other amazing artists. As always, you’re informative and entertaining, Caroline!
Girl, I'd listen to you talk just about anything. Excited to see what kind od content you bring to us in the future. Btw that's coming from me who binged all of your 60+ videos in 7 days and now I'm on a home designing journey.
Wow, I really loved this. It was great to see the spaces as they are and hear your process on how you would solve the issues and WHY you would do those things. So interesting and helpful! Loved seeing the renderings of the spaces with your suggestions in place.
This is so fascinating!!! I love every idea and I’m hoping this will be a series! I live in a 1bd apartment and it’s an open space concept, like… VERY OPEN! Plus my bf and I both work from home so we needed work set ups and I feel like it’s just messy now. My office is in the living room, his office is in the dining room (but keep in mind, it’s actually all one big room). So I’d love to see you tackling a project similar to this, so I can get some ideas! Much love!! ❤
I love an open floor plan - you could use some folding screens (you can customize any image onto it for pretty cheap) or a tall divider book/display case
Any ideas for creating a zone without using a rug? I REFUSE to buy a rug for the living area because rugs are always dirty and I HATE vacuuming.... Also Paige is the sweetest! Glad we finally got to see you!!!
Love your vision, energy, honesty.. so refreshing & heart warming!! My only “comment”..lol, lol… ugh, the “60’s!! Don’t let them come back in design!!!
I first started watching your channel for the interior design content but after watching your vlogs and seeing how fun and crazy you are, your personality really drew me in. I’m so excited to see what you have plan in the future. Thanks for letting us hang out with you. ❤
Dear Caroline, I think you are awesome. Your suggestions make sense even for me and I am a real loser as far as interior design goes. If I have to furnish a room, I just put a table in it, a bed and a cupboard and then I am at a loss for more ideas - but the way you explain things does put on a light even in my head! Thank you so much!
Winkler you nailed it AGAIN. Watching with my teenage gal. We both got so much out of it. Paige is such a doll. Inspired by the ideas you had. You are so talented it's UNREAL. Every time I get a notification about one of your new videos it's like a wee (means small) present for me, a gift. You are the only that makes me completely STOP what I am doing to catch up to learn a little more. My house goes on complete lockdown and because YOU are so worth it. I hope they both loved the rendering and follow through with the concepts you put forward. Love ya more xxx from the UK
You’re the only content creator that I, like a reflex, LIKE as soon as you say hi. Also, thx for not asking us to sub on every vid (obnoxious), as if we don’t know we can. 💀 You just create quality content PERIOD!!!
I would've swapped Paige's layout so that the night stand was by the window and the drawers by the door, that way you walk into a larger floor area and you get a bit of a moment with the bed by the window
these videos are seriously my favorite. I walk away from these and start randomly moving things around and pretending I know what I'm doing. What a time.
This was such fun! Loved it. And the rendering just added so much, especially the way she layered in things much as you'd layered your suggestions...then the end results. Thanks to those who volunteered their spaces...would be fun to see what finds its way into their rooms. And of course, it was a beautifully crafted video...I don't always consider how and who makes that happen. Glad you'll keep some portion of videos for design-related content. All good. Thanks so much, Caroline et al..
I just found your channel about a month ago and I have loved every video! Your authenticity and realness just drew me and I was blown away by your talent as a interior designer. That being said…It has been such a pleasure to watch you change and grow in your personal life as well as the transformation of you content. It has been nothing less than outstanding ! I am excited to come along on this journey with you and see where it leads to ❤
Love your videos! A design conundrum I really don’t see anyone talking about is hanging art in stairways, especially one that turns (not straight up). How do you address the changing heights and turns the stairs make? How do you create a focal point since that changes depending on if you are going up or down the stairs? Not sure if you’ve had to tackle this yourself, but the answers and examples out there are seriously lacking.
The best advice I’ve ever been given is to look in my closet, as those are the colours that I’m happiest in! And it was my cousin Perry that helped me realize how to be comfortable in my new (non-student) apartment! PS… he designed the windows for the first Neiman-Marcus in downtown Dallas. It was spot-on!
No more gender reveals in 2023 only render reveals
This is absolutely murdering me. A+
Render reveals, before n after of all types…yes!
🤣🤣🤣
I obviously missed that video. ?
@@Dingle1234 It wasn't from a video it's just a joke because it rhymes
Hellooo, it's Tamara the 3D renderer! Thank you so much for the lovely comments and thank you to Caroline for being the best client and Paige for displaying my work in such a lovely way ahhh this is wild. xx
Love your editing!
Your renders looked awesome and really added to Caroline's video. Looking forward to seeing more of your work! :)

this is a greattttt idea

There’s so much out there on cute bathroom refreshes that are light and airy… but that’s not my reality. I would love to see videos on sprucing up basic small rectangular bathrooms that don’t have any windows, please! Thanks for keeping it real ❤
Those 3D renders were great!
I feel like your style of making videos got to a new level recently. Love this, and also the last couple of videos you posted. And also every video you ever did to be honest, so... :)
GIRL! thank you for this. i did a lot of reflections over the holidays about how i wanted to change how i plan, write, edit and film videos for 2023. so rewarding to hear that it comes through. i hope to keep it up
The upholstered headboard tip just saved me. I have a blank wall behind my bed and I find bedframes SO expensive. I might just get a very basic one that just holds the mattress and then i could build a headboard myself to my taste. Thats SUCH a good idea!
Tamara's renderings really brought your ideas to life! So helpful for these types of videos ✨
I love both ideas! That "weird" wall in the second apartment is probably what is left of an old tile heating stove, covering the chimney that the former stove pipe went into.
Yes, it is. We have the stove on our storage room in the attic :)
I love how kind you are when you are working on people's rooms. It is sooo nice to hear and makes it so easy to take in your advice!
I'm an architectural professional and these ideas were really simple and great. Rendering really helps clients visualize the end result.
Caroline your channel has the best interior design content on YT. It's so refreshing, and it's rare for me to find a creator with similar taste as mine. I have hoarding tendencies and you inspired me to finally purge my stuff this past week, and it feels so good ❤️ sending love from Switzerland
Love the plans for Alejandra's space. If you're keeping a pedestal table, I'd paint the base black or bronze and just replace the top with a wood top. I hope we get to see the finished spaces.
This video structure is amazing! Hope it will become a monthly or so feature at the channel. Just got really curious about the results. Please share with us if they ever put your advice into practice.
I started watching your videos for the interior design aspect, however I found you more interesting than your actual interior design talents (please don't get offended). I think you are so creative in the way you present your videos and there are very few people on TH-cam with your actual talent and creativity. You are a a light that shines bright here and I am sure you know that, keep shining girl! I would also like to add that your exercise video was very artistic and I think adding actual music to it made a huge difference! Thank you for making these videos I truly am enjoying watching them.❤
Your vids instantly feel comfortable like a friend is popping round. Loving this one. 😊😊
my favorite feedback to hear. i always wanted videos to have a feeling similar to how i feel after watching The Office: silly but also sweet
I agree. I refer to Caroline as "my friend fron DC" 😉 and my husband is very confused...
@@nicolepatenaude4266 I can relate! I find myself saying "my Caroline is on tomorrow... my Caroline! They kind of think I'm nuts! But Caroline always puts a smile on my face! She is a ray of sunshine! So glad she popped up on my TH-cam!!
I love that all the advice you give applies to any style. I'm going to be moving internationally soon and I'll be starting from scratch with no furniture, so I'm taking thousands of notes from your videos. Going for "Victorian library in the jungle" vibes for the living room. I don't mind that interior design will be a smaller part of your content going forward, you're just so fun to watch. You always make me laugh! ❤
I found your channel because of the design tips (which are practical and full of knowledge gems-thank you), but I’m staying here because of you. You do you, Caroline ❤
We love you Caroline and Page! You are both so great. Also damn Tamara did an AMAZING JOB!! The gasp I gusped when I saw those renderings haha
they freakin killed it
I would love to see how they decorate these rooms after your suggestions / see the new rooms IRL if possible !!
I have been dying to use Punky Brewster as inspo for my craftsman home. I’m here because I love seeing all the stuff you share, Caroline. Not just the interior design
That WAS fun as heck! Loved the looks in both rooms but especially the last one because I thought the dilemmas were HARD to navigate ....wrong! You made it look easy! I came here for design but have come to like your humor and honesty in handling life problems and developing skills.
Caroline! I’ve been binge watching your channel and I just want to thank you for all your content it has been keeping me company in a lonely and difficult time. I’m so glad the algorithm popped you into my feed🙂
I’d love a design video geared towards people with small kids in small houses and how to make things look less chaotic. Right now my house looks like my 5 year old decorated it …because he basically has😂
Paige's comment at the end! 🥰 So sweet! Love your vibes 💜 Caroline, you're the best!
she edited this video, so i didnt see her little comment until i was uploading the video. tears.🥹
quality is insane, love how the spaces turned out wow wow wow
bbgrlllll ❤
I LOVE LOVE LOVE this video! Please do some more of these. We live in a 1950s house where previous owner tried to diy with walls and doors that have been such so challenging to work with. These really help!
I'm kind of obsessed with the elephant chair, though! It doesn't really fit their mood board, but I love it, haha.
OBSESSED with this! Please do more (if you want). Such great advice and so beautiful to see it come to life in the 3D render. Thank you, Caroline!
Love how both the rooms turned out. The living room one is a warm embrace in a cold climate. Getting the lighting right with a warm Kelvin that is bright enough will be key.
Unreasonably excited to be this early!
Going to my first estate sale today, terrified and jazzed 😂
AHHHH im jealous. gods speed
The surprise message at the end was so adorable 🥰 what a fun job
I swear to god, every single time I watch a video posted by either you or Paige Wassel, you address the #1 issue that’s been on my mind for days. Thank you for helping me solve all my design problems!!
I would love to see your ideas for a small space like an Airstream camper. We have one a vintage one (1976 Land Yacht) and have such a hard time figuring out how to style it. Great video!
YES! This was such a perfect collaboration video. Nailed it! Thanks for bringing our attention to these other amazing artists. As always, you’re informative and entertaining, Caroline!
I've been enjoying seeing your humor come thru in the thumbnails
Yay, our girl Caroline is up!
Little celebration here.
😁
Girl, I'd listen to you talk just about anything. Excited to see what kind od content you bring to us in the future.
Btw that's coming from me who binged all of your 60+ videos in 7 days and now I'm on a home designing journey.
Wow, I really loved this. It was great to see the spaces as they are and hear your process on how you would solve the issues and WHY you would do those things. So interesting and helpful! Loved seeing the renderings of the spaces with your suggestions in place.
How cute was Paige's lil note at the end. So cool to see the editor behind it all!
This is so fascinating!!! I love every idea and I’m hoping this will be a series! I live in a 1bd apartment and it’s an open space concept, like… VERY OPEN! Plus my bf and I both work from home so we needed work set ups and I feel like it’s just messy now. My office is in the living room, his office is in the dining room (but keep in mind, it’s actually all one big room). So I’d love to see you tackling a project similar to this, so I can get some ideas! Much love!! ❤
I love an open floor plan - you could use some folding screens (you can customize any image onto it for pretty cheap) or a tall divider book/display case
Ok that second room is so beautiful, I would looove decorating that. So nicely built imo!
Any ideas for creating a zone without using a rug? I REFUSE to buy a rug for the living area because rugs are always dirty and I HATE vacuuming.... Also Paige is the sweetest! Glad we finally got to see you!!!
Would a machine washable rug like Ruggable be a possibility?
Omg yeees! Same here, I love everything else but rugs are a big NO for me!
If you own the place you could do a durable solution like a painted hardwood zone. You could also use screens or low shelving to block out an area.
Love your vision, energy, honesty.. so refreshing & heart warming!! My only “comment”..lol, lol… ugh, the “60’s!! Don’t let them come back in design!!!
Absolutely loved this format. It would be amazing if you and Tamara could do more of these! But whatever you bring us, I'm in.
I really like the videos where there's a mix between blog and tips (design, organisation, etc.), so I am definitely sticking around :)
This whole video is so fucking cool. The advice. The renderings. The vision. All on point. Love this Caroline!
The color pallette of this video is out of this world
LOVE this video concept!! I'd love to see a follow up of both spaces to see what they end up doing :)
Woman! This is a gold mine for content! Love this set up!
I first started watching your channel for the interior design content but after watching your vlogs and seeing how fun and crazy you are, your personality really drew me in. I’m so excited to see what you have plan in the future. Thanks for letting us hang out with you. ❤
Dear Caroline, I think you are awesome. Your suggestions make sense even for me and I am a real loser as far as interior design goes. If I have to furnish a room, I just put a table in it, a bed and a cupboard and then I am at a loss for more ideas - but the way you explain things does put on a light even in my head! Thank you so much!
Winkler you nailed it AGAIN. Watching with my teenage gal. We both got so much out of it. Paige is such a doll. Inspired by the ideas you had. You are so talented it's UNREAL. Every time I get a notification about one of your new videos it's like a wee (means small) present for me, a gift. You are the only that makes me completely STOP what I am doing to catch up to learn a little more. My house goes on complete lockdown and because YOU are so worth it. I hope they both loved the rendering and follow through with the concepts you put forward. Love ya more xxx from the UK
Yo for you! Your need for alone time and willingness to say it aloud in English is amazing and so supportive to all of us!
So good. Hope you can share the after pics from these spaces!
You’re the only content creator that I, like a reflex, LIKE as soon as you say hi. Also, thx for not asking us to sub on every vid (obnoxious), as if we don’t know we can. 💀 You just create quality content PERIOD!!!
The 3D renderings are amazing!! So helpful
Lovely fresh crisp designs. Clean , clever and totally functional. Hats off girl. And darling clients.
I would've swapped Paige's layout so that the night stand was by the window and the drawers by the door, that way you walk into a larger floor area and you get a bit of a moment with the bed by the window
these videos are seriously my favorite. I walk away from these and start randomly moving things around and pretending I know what I'm doing. What a time.
This was such fun! Loved it. And the rendering just added so much, especially the way she layered in things much as you'd layered your suggestions...then the end results. Thanks to those who volunteered their spaces...would be fun to see what finds its way into their rooms. And of course, it was a beautifully crafted video...I don't always consider how and who makes that happen. Glad you'll keep some portion of videos for design-related content. All good. Thanks so much, Caroline et al..
I do love these videos where you take actual spaces and riff on what could possibly be done with them. It's like a live version of The Sims. haha
Love your design advice videos! Always such a helpful outline of how to think of things
that's my favorite thing to hear with the design! i love to try to break down the "why" in my head
the 3D renderings were SO cool, really helped get a feel for the space!!!
I just found your channel about a month ago and I have loved every video! Your authenticity and realness just drew me and I was blown away by your talent as a interior designer. That being said…It has been such a pleasure to watch you change and grow in your personal life as well as the transformation of you content. It has been nothing less than outstanding ! I am excited to come along on this journey with you and see where it leads to ❤
Like the renderings. Smart way to do reveals and design without all the work.
Love your videos! A design conundrum I really don’t see anyone talking about is hanging art in stairways, especially one that turns (not straight up). How do you address the changing heights and turns the stairs make? How do you create a focal point since that changes depending on if you are going up or down the stairs? Not sure if you’ve had to tackle this yourself, but the answers and examples out there are seriously lacking.
The best advice I’ve ever been given is to look in my closet, as those are the colours that I’m happiest in! And it was my cousin Perry that helped me realize how to be comfortable in my new (non-student) apartment! PS… he designed the windows for the first Neiman-Marcus in downtown Dallas. It was spot-on!
PPS: I still have a blue and white palate in my home… and I will be 80 in May! Great advice!
It's so cool to see your visions for these rooms come to live! Wow incredible job and awesome collaboration!
Please please pleeeeeeeease!!! Make this a regular series! So helpful!
