- Tag along to Los Angeles for a behind the scenes visit with esteemed interior designer and writer David Netto. See how David lives in his iconic Silver Lake house designed by legendary modernist architect Richard Neutra. While David, a Harvard Architecture School drop out, bows reverentially to Neutra’s genius, you’ll see how he, with help from designer friend, the late Paul Fortune, transformed the spartan spaces into a warm and friendly family home for today. Learn how David infused elements of European modernism (including pieces from Arp, Lalanne and Jean-Michel Frank, to name a few) into this quintessential California modernist architecture for a casual and eclectic style. Watch David explain how for Neutra, melding inside and out, including the sound of water, was an essential component of his design, fundamental to his concept of well being in temperate California. And see how David is not afraid to bring color and a few eccentric decorative surprises to his strong architectonic game. With a deep dive of intellectual rigor and a healthy respect for the house’s illustrious position in the annals of design, David manages to bring the past forward with elegance, comfort and distinctive style. You’ll be inspired, informed and entertained!! For more visit quintessenceblog.com

Oh Quintessence... you are a big light in my life. I know when an episode drops I'm in for a big treat. You never fail.
Oh thank you so much!! Love hearing that!! 🙏🏻
Agreed :p

You just can't beat a classic.The house oozes an era that has never seemed dated.Truly beautiful.
Exactly!!
I agree, this style comes in second on my most hated list. The wall to wall tartan rug and the walls orange and red in the same room SOUND terrible. I guess any style, if done properly can be beautiful. Maybe MCM looks stark not cozy enough for me, but he made it work. These rooms look welcoming and friendly....somehow.
Lovely the outdoor in the indoor...bring serenity and peace . California living enjoying mother nature...from your back yard..the sun, the moon and rain day. AWESOME!
Thanks Susanna, you listened. This is modernist and colourful! I love it !
Our pleasure! - Stacey (behind the camera)
@@quintessenceblg much appreciated!
All l can say is WOW his home is just beautiful l all way look forward to videos from Quintessence because l will see amazing homes talented designers Quintessence is the best interior and exterior design channel on TH-cam .. And the channel has the best Host and team on TH-cam.
Thank you so much Raymond!! So glad you enjoy our channel and we appreciate your support!
I love MCM, and this man took it to another level. The outdoors practically entrenching indoors, the African rug, the sculptures throughout are divine, but what he did to his bedroom floor with the Scottish tartan, I gasped with awe. How brilliant. The pop of color did it for me. Thank you another stunning home😍
Our pleasure and so glad you enjoyed!!
👀
What a delightful tour, generous, thoughtful, with gentle humor.
So glad you enjoyed!! 🙏🏻
Bonjour mes jolies, I hope this note finds you happy and healthy. After such a great visit, I am sure you both are in good state of mind. Love this house where nature is part of it because of the windows and doors ; it is fantastic. Love, love the eclectic furniture and style throughout the house; , it is just not great to look at, it is is full of life without fuss ! Thank you for this visit, take good care and until next time, prenez soin de vous mes jolies. Merci et à bientôt - Rosalind -
Thank you Rosalind! So glad you loved and so well put (as usual)! - Stacey
I learned a lot from david netto, about richard neutra and the house. the stepping down through the garden into the house = was everything
then the in ground trampoline. wonderful visit.
What fun! I love how unpretentious he is and that the home, for all of its history and style, is one that a family truly lives in and that nothing is too precious. Even better is the lush, multi-layered landscape with water features and best if all, a trampoline for the kids, little ones and big ones. Homes are there to be fully lived in and this one clearly is.
David Netto is the rock star of designers. Love his aesthetic and his posts on Instagram are so much fun!
He is a trifecta of fun, intellectual and talented!
This channel should have at least 1,000,000 subscribers by now. Keep up the great work!
Thank you SO much!!
@@quintessenceblg 👍
Great home tour. The Decor is visually stimulating....not boring and works to warm up the interior and make it " homey " in a classy way. Netto is an interesting speaker.
Exactly!! And yes, David is smart, incredibly knowledgeable and knows how to connect the dots.
Your visit to this magnificent important house makes me jump for joy too! Thank you. ♥️♥️
LOL thank you!!
Perfect reply, summing it up! 😉
I was awaiting your next presentation. Always great. 🌞🍊🌞
Thank you!!
So iconic mid century dream. Love this home so much.
So glad
Ahhh. Perfect way to start a Sunday. I was lucky to go to Palos Verdes High School, which was also designed by Neutra.
Thank you! And lucky you!! 👍🏻
At first seeing that it was a modern house I didn't think I would like it, but it is one of my favorites!!!
Love the articulation about getting stuck and about numbed perspective after living in the house.
The most relaxing videos to wat h before bed. Soothing and beautiful things to enjoy and dream about
All worth it just to see the ending...a real treat. lol. Very interesting home. I could most definitely live there!!!!!
Ha!! A very fun and fascinating day! Glad you enjoyed.
I like how the sofa transforms into cozy with the quiet floral upholstery. I love the personal bedroom decor. Wake up in your bedroom to surroundings that make you happy is a great philosophy.
Agreed!!
That was fun, thanks! I love the built in sofa, with mid century print!
Glad you enjoyed!!
Magnificent! I love it all, but having the water sounds, the TCM movies on, the children's artwork, it makes me "feel" it instead of just see it. Now to go back and use my pause to study ALL of it.
👍🏻 AND David will be featured in our new book coming out next week - based on the video series!
Indoor outdoor concept is amazing
Yes and so ahead of its time!
Beautiful and unusual ......wanted to see more rooms!!!
You saw just about everyting!
Loved the house, especially the tartan carpet. Thanks Susanne and Stacey
Our pleasure! Glad you enjoyed!
Usually I don't like modern houses, but this house is just so very interesting and fascinating! And also family and pet friendly! No boring stuff here! Tartan flooring, I really like it! I found the old photos, and the book of the architectural plans for this house very interesting, even though it was a bit confusing! Well done indeed again, Susanna!
So glad you enjoyed!! David is so talented! - Stacey (behind the camera)
Modern warmth indeed. And his bedroom! Mad for plaid! Another uplifting video. I lived in a poor man’s version of this house in Sunnyvale, California, one of the few things I loved about California. Thanks again Stacey and Susanne for bringing these wonderful videos to us all. 💙🦋💙
Our pleasure! Thank YOU for watching and commenting!
I love the outdoor in the indoor.. Nature bring a lot of serenity to our life..when exotic animal visit our oudoors and plant grow beautiful is time to celebrate life. The rain, the sun, the moon you have daily canvas
REJOICE in life. Thank you, Susan
Oh I love this! How fun and magical. He’s a gorgeous soul, the perfect caretaker of this home and garden xxxx happy days 😘💖💐🌸💗🎋⛩
So glad you loved!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻
It's a Neutra house! Cool. Happy to see one.
👍🏻👍🏻
fascinating and sexy. And the house is pretty swell, too. But, in all seriousness, what a treat to see this house, and the juxtaposition of seminal works of art and design by Jean Artp, and J. Michel Frank, and combined with the bedroom is so LA in the best way of freedom, and real style.
Thank you for your knowledgeable and sophisticated comment! A treat for us as well!
All that Neutra wonderful -ness, indoors and out! And the personal flourishes just send this home to another reality, however, the trampoline seals the perfection. I love this channel, showing such fascinating thinkers and the homes they thrive in.
Thank you so much!! So glad you enjoyed this visit and that you love our channel !! 🙏🏻🙏🏻
I was shocked to see vertical blinds, tartan wall to wall rug, and the orange and red walls in the same room. Have to say I like it allot. I don't even like MCM style in general. W O W
Sign of a talented designer that he makes it all work!! And if you didn't know, he is also a talented writer - he wrote the Catroux book and has a new one coming out next year. AND he is featured in our new book coming out in a couple weeks!
@@quintessenceblg Thanks, Is the book about interior design?
@@rockshot100 Yes!
Beautiful home! And I did glean a few book recommendations!!! Thank you!!!
Wonderful! Glad you enjoyed!
Another fascinating house
I have been refreshing every week for a new episode now let’s go watch it
👍🏻 Hope you enjoy!!
OMG, I want to live there!!! That takes fung shui to a whole new level! Love it!!! ;-)
So glad!! Thank you!
This house proves that mid century can still rock like a halftime show! 💗
Yes, when it's at this level by a master!
I love his home! Red walls…super cool 👌🏼
Glad you enjoyed!!
Wow!! What a great house!
👍🏻👍🏻
This house is a bull's eye for me - that's what I love about this style! seems modernist cool!👍👍🧡
👍🏻🎯
As always, thanks for the education!Neutra,who knew!?Not me.☺
Our pleasure!! We are so glad you are both inspired and informed!
I'd like to see more modern or mid century houses. This was so unique and unexpected! Thank you so much
Our pleasure!
Wow red color on bedroom! Beautiful style.
I love it!! Respect for a classic house combined with a comfortable, livable home!!😍❤️
Exactly!! Glad you enjoyed!
Absolutely stunning! 🏆
Beautifully designed home. Wall gallery is amazing.
Agreed!! Glad you enjoyed!
I mean every home you've taken us in is absolutely gorgeous ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you!! So glad you enjoy!
It really opens up a whole world I'd never see.
Love the houses..tell Davie get a small screw driver and adjust the roller high from the ends of the slider....a piece of cake...thing will slide almost like butter..xx
I'm and love with this house sou unique and beautiful . I love this video thank you ,because you video channel, I get lot inspiration and ideas for all this house you been to visit . Thank you very much Quintessence .
You are so welcome!
I’m really not keen on MCM, but in this designer’s hands, it is so interesting and really fabulous.
Exactly how I feel! Glad you enjoyed!
Another great video, well done! I'm a Neutra fan as well.
Thank you!! Glad to hear it!
Very interesting. Respect to the owner🌷
Indeed.
When he opened the glass wall the sound of the cascading water was delightful and calming, instantly outdoors while still inside.
Exactly!
Ooh, I'm in love - with that house!!!!!! Thank you Quintessence for another FABULOUS house tour, and interesting information from it's equally fabulous occupants. :)
You are so welcome!! David is not only talented but so knowledgeable and intellectual!
This house is so refreshing, all the fauna from outside being in twined to inside, it feels like a like a tree house 🇬🇧❤️ gorgeousxx
Yes!!
This is insane! I just watched the David Netto lecture at Harvard just a couple weeks ago! It was quite interesting, and there was a documentary he mentioned at the end called "Concert of Wills" about the construction of the Getty Museum. I had never seen it and it is not on TH-cam. I'm hoping he might consider constructing a channel of his own on TH-cam that is like a classroom, and he could upload some documentaries he thinks would be educational. But I know he must be very, very busy. Thanks for this wonderful video!
Always such a small world!! Yes, David is incredibly knowledgeable and while I doubt he will be instituting his own channel, he does write quite a bit and gives talks like what you saw.... He did a very fun instagram live talk in April 2020 with Ashley Hicks for Cabana Magazine that got pretty heady - if you're on Instagram, you might be able to find it in Cabana's IG live history.
@@quintessenceblg Thank you so much for the information! Yes, I will look for it, and thank you so much for your channel. It is certainly one of the best on TH-cam! Truly, you should be proud of it.
Wow, I loved this visit! I‘ve never heard of this house, and I‘m glad it‘s in such capable and loving hands. And the trampoline at the end is a lovely touch! 😅 Thanks to both Susanna and Stacey for another fantastic outing!
Thank YOU Alan!! So glad you were entertained and informed! 🙏🏻
Very interesting fireplace.
oh my god i'm so excited i will watch it at home with great pleasure
Thank you! Enjoy!
That was fun!
How much do I want to live here! Would like to have seen more- kitchen, bathroom, bedrooms...
Kitchen was a bit too tight to film and same for baths... but a great house and who could blame you?!
David Cattin, me too. At least a glance with even a phone video would have satisfied my strong curiosity, lol.
@@twistoffate4791 honestly, it's a very small house - we didn't miss much!
@@quintessenceblg OK, understood
@@twistoffate4791 🙏🏻 but so glad it piqued your interest!!
I've been following him on Instagram for years now! I can't believe we get a tour! Thank you!!
Our pleasure!
Outstanding...love it love it love it!!!
So glad - thank you!!
Loved this. Thank you!
Our pleasure!!
What a delightful man.
Pretty house👌❤️
👍🏻👍🏻
I would love to have seen more of the house.
Very small house - there actually wasn't much more to see...
I love outside is beautiful part of the beautiful home
One of my favorite houses so far
Delighted to hear it! 👍🏻🙏🏻
Perfection, nothing like a MCM.
I also loved the bird table, couldn't really understand who designed it.
It's by Lalanne!
To have the original plans!.the inground trampoline 🙌
Yes to both!!
Beautiful!!!
Loved this video. One of your best. Seems like you’re old friends. The house looks ‘loved’ in thanks to DN who I appreciate a lot. I could go on…
🙏🏻
Love the house, and that vampire hanging by the trampoline :)
That's the best execution of a trampoline I've ever seen.
- Cathy (&, accidently, Steve), Ottawa/Bytown/Pimisi
LOL fun right?!
@@quintessenceblg Finally a way to jump around and not break yourself. Bloody brilliant.
@@stevezytveld6585 LOL! Yes
What an amazing house !!! I really loved the tartan carpet in his bedroom !!
Cool house😎cool owner.
Very livable.
Totally agree! Glad you enjoyed!
Love it. It actually very much reminds me of a couple of places that I’ve seen in Bogota; large windows, modern but with the warmth of vibrant colors and grasses (wicker, straws, etc.).
Nice!
I wish we could have seen more.
It's a small house - you saw just about everything.
😊thanks
I can't believe I am saying this but David Netto's design aesthetics improved a Richard Neutra house!
Indeed! High praise!
That fire! I think the flames on the outside not inside of brick surround?!
No worries - they were well within the hearth structure.
Lovely home - I just want someone to repair that sliding door so it moves smoothly!
I think it just needs some WD40 ;-)
Lovely house! Fresh and unique
Agreed!
I love all of your content. Superb videos. I have a question. Can you recommend a high end silk flower company? thank you!!
Thanks so much!! And the high end silk flowers I’m most familiar with is Diane James.
@@quintessenceblg Thank You so much for the recomendation.
@@susanchappell796 you are most welcome! Hope you like!
Magnific and gorgeous !
Who made the bird table? The transcript called it the lawn.
Francois Lalanne!
@@quintessenceblg Ty.
@@williamwoody7607 You're most welcome!
Neutra, Neutra, wherefore art thou passage bring thine groceries to thy kitchen, please?
Cool house, it makes me want to google neutra
You should!!
Finally, she is learning how to keep quieter and NOT totally monopolize the conversations. She has a LONG way to go, but redemption seems possible.
@@bluewaterpines2santarosabe398 actually I am Quintessence but Susanna is the host of the series. - Stacey (behind the camera and the founder of this series and the blog)
I just came here after the daily mail article
Vitra everywhere,,cool...great taste,,
Interesting.
I honestly thought i was the only person to use things like TCM as background noise. but apparently I'm not. 😆
👍🏻
Only two rooms?
Really three but yes, it's a rather small house - we only skipped kitchen and baths which were a bit too tight to shoot in.
Beautiful house but I really got distracted by him cutting her off many times.
