Here, the British designer invites director Emile Rafael into his home in Wiltshire -an apartment occupying part of New Wardour Castle. Read more on NOWNESS - bit.ly/2hjQXfs

The space, the emptiness, the silence, is all that I love.
Napoleon... is that you?
That moment when a castle looks minimalistic. Absolutely love it!!!
The way he talks about his house is beautiful, you can tell he is in love with it, I mean that shouldn't be hard but still, he describes every detail gracefully
The space, the emptiness, the silence...is all...that I...love!
while the architecture and beauty of it and the clean filmmaking are compelling, what is just as beautiful is how much sir jasper loves it so truthfully
"time gives an object soul."
just lovely.
I didn't want this video to end. Absolutely incredible. I hope to have an ounce of Conran's talent one day.
Finally someone with shit loads of cash, doing majestic things with a beautiful English Country House - stunningly understated
"I mean, have you seen the Sistine Chapel? Ghastly." Oh my god, hahahaa. I love it.
Katherine It was beautiful before the restoration
I don't know how it looked before restoration, but it looks breathtakingly beautiful now!
Too true!
Hilarious
Says a person living in an ugly house
I went to that school! It was truly magical. The drama and art departments were to die for! Best years of my life xx
I did too, left in 1986, best place and best people. Happy time to look back on! 😍
Several people appear to be under the impression that he owns the whole house. He has one apartment out of, I think, ten. He also does not live alone.
Uh it appears that he pretty much has the bulk of the center mass.....that staircase is in his apartment, its not a lobby.
He lives with his husband whom he married in 2015.
Thank you for the clarification. Actually, I think that's a brilliant use of homes on this scale. Could be a great money making scheme for the National Trust! Lease out the secondary bits in their properties with some guidelines for renovation.
I used to work for Jasper many years ago, and some how knew he would have a place like this, utterly beautiful, good luck to him, he taught me so much
his voice, his Appreciation of this house and all its beauty so wonderfully described and enjoyed
" aching and under aching " Nice. Every time I watch this vid, this is the third time, I catch something new :)
I can sense a sincere deep feeling so much close to decisiveness that my soul lived in that charming house in a life before this one I’m currently living. Hope I can return one day as I’m feeling lost the second my eyes fell on this perfect video
I'm astonished by the sense of peace that all the WHITE brings. It is so lovely ... and graciously gives the stage to the paintings and furnishings of the rooms. Stunning. Well done. Bravo!
First I fell in love with Sophie Conran’s home, now Jasper… what a talented family.
This gave me goosebumps throughout.
I know! this Creepy Creeperson gave me goosebumps too!
Simply stunning. The minimal furniture allowing the house to truly shine has so much drama, it’s almost cinematic. True, true perfection.
it is mix of simplicity and majestic, what a wonderful house.
Love it! The silence, the emptiness is all I love!
How rich can one be to be able to afford that palatial abode! I love the juxtaposition of the ornate structure with the clean, seemingly minimalist and modern interior design. It’s a complete departure from the ostentatiously decorated but nonetheless magnificent palaces and castles. The combination of white and gray walls and the gallery like placement of the precious art works are nothing short of breathtaking.
This place is so peaceful and beautiful. He adores his house and the historicity of it and its objects.
I am obsessed with houses. I know most of the good ones. This one is the best hands down.
Outstanding beauty ... Jasper Conran is the master in defined & understated elegance, as he has shown in this Georgian masterpiece of architecture. New Wardour Castle in Wiltshire, England.
#perfection
I watch this video 7 days a week it inspire me and make me calm at the same time
GORGEOUS BREATHTAKING
This place really is pure beauty
“I like tables..” Mr. Conrad has impeccable taste 🥰
Sir Jasper knows he is the real care taker of this wonder of the world, Sir Jasper if you invite me I could delight you just picking flowers from the vicinity is putting flowers and nature everywhere.
Horrible thing is, it ended,where can I get to see more and more of this place and hear his calming voice in background.
oh to live in such elegance....
So aesthetically pleasing! definitely would want my house to look like this if I had moeny
This house is really very beautiful. Light colours ,not overdone with flashy colours.
I really love his home. The pale simplicity balances the grandeur, and is such an antidote to 5,000 colors in 10,000 patterns you sometimes see in these historic homes. I'd love to know what percentage in which actually lives.
This manor house was turned into approx. 10 apartments or so. He seems to have bagged the best one.
Utterly exquisite wouldn’t expect anything else from a Conran 🦉
Breathtaking.
Well, that was something. Beautiful and simple, love it.
He is simply adorable.
Completely stunning and revelatory
I love how neoclassical it is. Austere yet so chic. Its definitely a throwback to 18th century England and early American style. I am in love with this whole house.
Brilliant. His way of speaking is all-encompassing like this line, 'Modern Architecture doesn't seem to play those games.'
Just..... Simply magnificent !!
Breathtaking!
Truly beautiful
refind, airy and breathtaking
What a thoughtful speaker and a beautiful house!
Semplicemente FANTASTICA dimora , adoro la luminosità degli ambienti , i colori molto chiari sulle pareti ed il pavimento in legno appena più scuro....... bellissimo
Wow! So defined and understated elegance
breathtaking
Pure genious. Hats off to you Sir
NOWNESS in rich people with good taste's houses.
love the spaces and the grand architecture
What a gorgeous house!
Incredible!
Beautiful film. Exquisite home. Fascinating man.
Oh my! This is beautiful....
So serene and lovely
Thank you for the story. Aquest home sembla el germà petit de Xavier Rubert de Ventós.
The space the empty ness.............. is all that I love, too. Remarkable and Gorgeous.
Beautiful and inspiring!
Beautiful 💯
Fabulous.
Magical 🌈
Love this thoroughly.
Breathtakingly beautiful!!
The cost to maintain that must cost so much. 😱😱😱😱
"The space, the emptiness, the silence, is all that I love." This man is just house poor lmao
Beautiful house, and beautiful video 👌
Is this the building that was used in Billy Elliot as the ballet school? 1:20 looks identical to me
It is!
Beautiful
Can’t watch this enough
How incredibly beautiful and lonely at the same time. I am sure if I lived there I would go mad.
There are 9 other apartments in the building. He also lives with his husband, Oisin Byrne.
kms386
He lives in one of many apartments.
I love the pure
Exquisite
So beautiful💖
I thought he was being ironic but perhaps the hackers saw me watching the video and decided to stripe my floors.
Muy lindo los videos, se podrán subtitular en Español? Muchas gracias
As long as there's an England, there'll be English eccentrics!
I once loved a woman as this man loves his palace
Stunningly gorgeous.
That is a Great House.
Jasper still looks like an 18 yr old pretending to be older xo
oprime el pecho observar todo ese silencio obligado en vacío, tanto detalle ceñido a la obediencia de verse el mejor... tal vez si fuera visitado por músicos y amantes de la música, finalmente la casa tendría un Alma. Comparta amigo y amara algo mas que el silencio (humildemente)
Those lovely railings!
So beautiful
Classicism puts the person at the centre of the design (thats why there are always an even number of columns - the axis is through the void). That's why it is so theatrical. Modern architecture is a machine, it can be perfectly functional, you can use it, but that is all. Old Wardour has polished up well.
RIP Henri Bendel
LOVE ❤️
Jasper for me will always be 18 years old ,,,,
Has this pace been used in movies?
Gorgeous congratulations xxx
Hermosa hermosa
Beautiful Palladian symetry.
Trust Jasper to get the best apartment in the House!
This man lives in the zoo pen from the end of 2001 A Space Odyssey
Isnt that the stairs during rhe audition in the film Billy Elliott
I have watched this Nowness for a while it would be nice to have all the riches to stay in places like this. But some people are happy to stay in a cardboard box & call it there castle . Maybe they should get out more & see what overs live like & open you're eyes there is plenty houses to look at . Best Peter Scotland
This looks like Mr. Darcy's house in Pride and Prejudice
Well quite the place to have soirée, Of courses you’d be told to wear white. I prefer the Renesas richly colourful and sumptuous.
Jasper didn't know much about it being a girl's boarding school for many, many a year. We were naughty, sure, we were in the middle of the countryside! but no way were all the kids there, due to being expelled from numerous other schools! My 3 years there, from 15 to 18 years old were some of the best in my life. I loved going there as it was a very arty, musically orientated boarding school.
How do you heat it?
