Much wit in that description. But, agree, quite a task. And that she carried a piece in her purse looking for fabric for curtains. Joanna is determined. The results are sensational.
there was really not a thing i disliked about this video. but what caught my heart was her library consisting of books from her entire life thusfar. i found that really touching. the home looks extremely inviting and cozy. as much as i've had nightmares about wallpaper in the past, for some odd reason the concept of it is appealing again. who wouldn't want to be surrounded by flowers? really lovely home and garden.
@metis lamestiza...I too have all my childhood books..they evoke memories of such innocence,that only comes once in a lifetime...but, I like the way you express yourself. Quite lovely🌾.
All of your books from your life touched my soul. As a child growing up in a small house my Mom would get rid of my books after I read them and I bought many old favorites on Ebay as an adult. When we were retiring to a smaller house recently and were selling off lots of things I told my husband I really should get rid of a lot of books but now I will have more time to read. He said you don't need to get rid of your books honey...and my heart grew two sizes.
This was by far one of my favorite H & G pieces, I love that her space is utilitarian and lived in as opposed to being bound by tradition and rules. I just love this house and she seems like a really cool and interesting person. Super inspiring.
The Laura Ashley aerie suite is breathtaking. You don’t enter the room, you enter an entire enchanted canvas, perfect down to every corner, happy and playful and personal. There is something of the child-to-woman vibe, an expression of utter prettiness and freshness. The patterns are serious art, not childish. The sad serious adult world relentlessly summons, but not here, not just yet. The slanted ceilings are handled brilliantly right down to the gold cord holding the floor=to-ceiling drapes against the wall. I found this video endlessly inspiring. Tremendous industry creating rooms to embrace visitors and guests. Well done.
I know! You put it very nicely! It’s like a children’s tent but at your cool aunts house so it’s also super calming and feminine. I’d sleep as soundly as a baby in a womb haha.
I so enjoyed this video. Everything about this house and garden I loved. The sisal rug in the library and up the stairs, the bookcases, artwork and kitchen with the stainless steel countertops. Quite honestly If I had the opportunity to replicate this look, then I would. The music was great. Eileen, from Stuart , Florida, USA
What an incredible home. It's always interesting to see how people like her live, but oftentimes the homes look overly done or too stuffy and show home-ish. This place is super inviting and cozy. I love how she mentioned that the couch is covered in this extremely expensive fabric that they use to lounge in and let the dogs climb on. I love the utilitarian kitchen countertop, the art. That library is just stunning. I wish I could have kept all the books I've owned with me as I moved around, but I'd be swimming in them by now lol. At first I thought that wall paper was too much in the bedroom, but as she talked about it I came to love it as well. Her philosophy of how she makes her home beautiful but cozy and useful is the best. Beautifully filmed as well.
I absolutely loved this, idiosyncratic without pretentiousness. As a man, I noticed how it was all ‘we’, except for the bedroom and bathroom, which became ‘I’. Lol.
I love and agree with the kitchen cabinetry idea. I, too, will eliminate the upper cabinets in our kitchen, and I already have my daily dishware open and accessible. Absolutely beautiful home and garden. Brava!
I know the folks videoing these homes have to protect the owners privacy, but I really wanted to see more of this home. How the rooms were arranged and how the home was connected to the garden. All very lovely from what I could tell.
An absolutely fabulous place. There were a few things which are very similar to my pictures, colours and placement which made me love it more. Keeping childhood books tells us a lot about her. One of my favourite Design Notes.
I love this house and I'd have to say my favorite thing is the gilded light fixture in the library but even more than that, I just love the fact that she has every book that she's ever owned from childhood. Books just make a house. Love it love it!
Interesting, because that was the ONLY thing I didn't like. Not that it wasn't beautiful but her whole video she talked about function and use and here she has only one light in a room where you read and she said it didn't work well.
Yes! You can marry practicality, comfort, style and beauty. A house is for living and shouldn’t be precious. My MIL used to call it house proud, so worried about how it looked, that people forget to actually live in it. I love this house, just wonderful.
I loved this wonderful house. I wish I had seen a peek of the exterior to understand why it was a house "nobody wanted." Did the exterior architecture, in any way, inform or inspire the inside of the house? Lovely, lovely garden.
When comfortable meets gorgeous you know you have achieved success. I loved it all but was particularly warmed by the areas with that delightful wallpaper.
Lovely home and easy to live in. That’s my cup of tea. I really don’t like walking around without my shoes on so being able to walk through the house and kick up your feet on the coffee table is perfect. One thing not mention that I feel is another layering and an extension to the house is the garden. Particularly the trees that surround the garden like A blanket. That’s screening envelops privacy and coziness. I can imagine some type of garden lighting and circling this private place. I can’t think of anything more relaxing than that. Great video
"We decided not to have top cabinets.." I heard myself say out loud, Thank you! I find them oppressive, personally and look how serene her kitchen is. Lovely, all over--person and home!
Oh I love your house and garden!!! So cosy, so original! Much love to you from Paris. I am between boxes and things moving next week to Marseilles. Keep your fingers crossed for me to find the suitable appartment with a terrasse or balcony where I can sit who is waiting for me! Thank you merci danke to you.
This is so stylish & beautiful. The kitchen is divine. I love the tall dark shelves she uses for her plates. Such a great idea. The dining table is a great size, enough to put lots of plates glasses & food on. The comfy living space with lots of pictures on the wall. Her bedroom with the Bennison fabric is so cozy. The pretty over grown garden is great too. I loved her quote that it’s a robust house you can wear your shoes. X
Thank you for a wonderful tour of your home. Light, inviting and effortlessly presented. All the hallmark’s of creating a space that comes from your heart not a catalogue.
Unfashionable is excellent!! It means not following silly trends, but speaking own mind, growing the house along with our family, discarding bizarre rules of furnishing our places and just doing what we like, guided by our strong minds, and necessity ! These people here are mine kinds of people- having every single book I've read would be impossible though. Open shelving is a nightmare as they gather dust and just annoy me, kitchen stuff being in constant view, emphasising the fact one's in the kitchen! Im happy, this is fashion is not for me; everyone else has ripped their kitchen hanging units, not just this lady and they have no place to put anything. Also, people's kitchens look so much alike, one can predict what the kitchen is going to look like. I've seen such amazing hanging cupboards in skips, it's crime almost as so much pollution was created making them, all these trees were cut for them. Soon, top cupboards will be back in fashion😂 just wait a little.
My most favorite house ever!!!!!!! I adore, love ❤️, and covet this house !!! I love everything about this particular house!!! I wish I could move in right now, especially when this house also has a very much loved cat as well!!!!!!! Thank you so much!!!!!!! 💓
Excellent. I especially like that it doesn't look "done" by a decorator,. BTW, I worked for Fortuny back in 1970 here in New York City. Back then, other fabric houses tried to copy Fortuny fabrics with lousy results.
where do English people get those amazing fluffy roll arm sofas? they are so distinct and charming; I have never seen an American company make one like it!
Ebaying an entire room's worth of discontinued wallpaper. Respect.

Laura Ashley is not wallpaper...it's a way of turning a room into a personal boudoir
I particularly liked the bold ref horizontal stripe in the bedroom, perfectly teams with the florals and gives a strong balance to the room.
@metis lamestiza...I too have all my childhood books..they evoke memories of such innocence,that only comes once in a lifetime...but, I like the way you express yourself. Quite lovely🌾.
I loved so many details…just lovely. The bedroom wallpaper was a bit too much for my taste. Thank you for sharing.
@@bettinarossi7908 thank you for your sweet comment!
"I do think that having a little bit of what you love is what life is all about." Truer words!!
All of your books from your life touched my soul. As a child growing up in a small house my Mom would get rid of my books after I read them and I bought many old favorites on Ebay as an adult. When we were retiring to a smaller house recently and were selling off lots of things I told my husband I really should get rid of a lot of books but now I will have more time to read.

These Design Notes videos are filmed so beautifully. The visual storytelling feels so cozy, whimsical and calming - absolutely love them!
This was by far one of my favorite H & G pieces, I love that her space is utilitarian and lived in as opposed to being bound by tradition and rules. I just love this house and she seems like a really cool and interesting person. Super inspiring.
"Enveloping". She said it twice because.. such a good word. I want my home to feel that way :D
She seems really nice person, the tour with her was simply lovely to watch.

I had the Laura Ashley bird wallpaper in a similarly shaped bedroom in my home in 1991. It brings back memories of nursing my son
More on the garden!!!! I love this house!

Cozy, comfy, livable, and charming.

I absolutely loved this, idiosyncratic without pretentiousness. As a man, I noticed how it was all ‘we’, except for the bedroom and bathroom, which became ‘I’. Lol.
I think they have separate bedrooms.
I love these House & Garden pieces. Just like Joanna's home, they are are a little slice of heaven.
Just a great house with impeccable taste.
I love and agree with the kitchen cabinetry idea. I, too, will eliminate the upper cabinets in our kitchen, and I already have my daily dishware open and accessible. Absolutely beautiful home and garden. Brava!

@@poodlegirl55have another look. There are more lights in the room.
I'm so jealous - the bedroom is breathtaking, the enveloping wallpaper, something out of this world. I have to watch it again
Just beautiful. One of the loveliest most tasteful homes I’ve seen. 🦋
Splendid. I'm drooling over the green Fortuny brocade cushions. Just my style.
Oh my goodness! This house is stunning, calming, well designed, and I love it! I also love the wallpaper as well. What a beautiful home.
Utterly beautiful and such a nice person!
I love her home but mostly, love her unassuming and unpretentious personality. A lovely warm woman and home.
Yes! You can marry practicality, comfort, style and beauty. A house is for living and shouldn’t be precious. My MIL used to call it house proud, so worried about how it looked, that people forget to actually live in it. I love this house, just wonderful.
Such a beautiful, inviting home, but can we talk about her outfit? So crisp and classic. Simple elegance.
I loved this wonderful house. I wish I had seen a peek of the exterior to understand why it was a house "nobody wanted." Did the exterior architecture, in any way, inform or inspire the inside of the house? Lovely, lovely garden.
Love all of it, so elegant and comfortable !
That gorgeous Laura Ashley fabric! What a dream.
Hello Bratty, how're you doing today..?
Beautiful home. Looks like Lucy Williams took a whole lot of inspiration from Joanna’s home and style if you’ve seen her new renovation
Agree
My god this is beautiful! And the owner is gorgeous!
I hit “like” literally 2 seconds in the video. Beautiful design and lovely video!
When comfortable meets gorgeous you know you have achieved success. I loved it all but was particularly warmed by the areas with that delightful wallpaper.
I love your home, and I bet you’re a most gracious hostess.
What a gorgeous house and garden😃 I love everything there, so beautiful and calm.
Simply enchanting! A classic elegance. ✨✨
Beautiful cozy home. Love the book collection, wish i had mine too.
Beautiful! So English and special. Love it.
Not to be too precious about wear and tear..loved the expression being bullet proof..beautiful home with so much to love..thankyou for sharing.
I just love her style, she is my favourite interior designer. All the texture, subtle colour, elegance, contrast is just divine!
Lovely home and easy to live in. That’s my cup of tea. I really don’t like walking around without my shoes on so being able to walk through the house and kick up your feet on the coffee table is perfect.

Lovely woman, lovely home. Thank you so much for sharing!
"We decided not to have top cabinets.." I heard myself say out loud, Thank you! I find them oppressive, personally and look how serene her kitchen is. Lovely, all over--person and home!
The down filled love seat! ❤️❤️❤️
this is very chic. Joanna Plant has impeccable taste, a rare sense of elegance
Oh I love your house and garden!!! So cosy, so original! Much love to you from Paris.
I am between boxes and things moving next week to Marseilles. Keep your fingers crossed for me to find the suitable appartment with a terrasse or balcony where I can sit who is waiting for me! Thank you merci danke to you.
My parents had that exact wallpaper in their bedroom when I was a kid. We didn’t love it then but it’s gorgeous here!!!
Lovely. Enjoyed all plus the garden. Really liked the bedroom paper and how she used the coord fabric.
Ebaying an entire room's worth of discontinued wallpaper. Respect.. More on the garden!!!! I love this house!.
YES!!!!! Looove these design notes videos
Love your house and library esp. with your every book since Enid Blyton!
This house is really wonderful! It is very elegant!
this is what I aspire to create (in small) with my flat & videos
Love her home. It's so comfortable and welcoming. Nice addition with garden!
Lovely home
😍🥰🏵️☀️❤️💛💚💙💜🧡🌻🥀💖

I love her little speech about the venetian cushions at 2:17
Charming cozy and lived in. I love it 😊
Beautifully done and most important, livable!❤️
Hello Dariss , how're you doing today..?
Elegant and very cozy!
What a lovely home. That bedroom is amazing. I would never think to do that. Also love that beautiful fabric piece in her hallway
I love this house so cozy! wow. comfy, cozy, homey and beautiful.....I love it.
She’s lovely, so us her home!
Just lovely, owner, house, garden. Perfection.
Such a lovely person and her home is so beautiful, well balanced, functional and welcoming!!
Absolutely brilliant! Thank you!
Unfashionable is excellent!! It means not following silly trends, but speaking own mind, growing the house along with our family, discarding bizarre rules of furnishing our places and just doing what we like, guided by our strong minds, and necessity !
These people here are mine kinds of people- having every single book I've read would be impossible though.

Yep..the garden would have sold me too!
Inteligent, humble and honest. Thank you
My most favorite house ever!!!!!!! I adore, love ❤️, and covet this house !!! I love everything about this particular house!!! I wish I could move in right now, especially when this house also has a very much loved cat as well!!!!!!! Thank you so much!!!!!!! 💓
I loved this but my god, I have to have her top! It’s gorgeous!
Magical garden and soulful home, great video thank you
So pretty and so incredible heart warming.. ‘Tis a pure joy to behold!
Lovely home. Yes, it absolutely looks like the kind of bone that people find cozy and want to stay in.
Such beautiful home
Excellent. I especially like that it doesn't look "done" by a decorator,.
BTW, I worked for Fortuny back in 1970 here in New York City.
Back then, other fabric houses tried to copy Fortuny fabrics with lousy results.
Gorgeous home and a lovely lady.
Lovely, inviting, warm home! I absolutely fell in love with both inside and outside as one seems to just flow into the other! Gorgeous!!!
Gorgeous as well as "comfy," which I love!
OH!! I LOVE THIS .. THE GARDEN TOO!
Well explained intentions and processes behind the design. Very helpful!
Lovely house. Thank you for the video!
Absolutely stunning!
where do English people get those amazing fluffy roll arm sofas? they are so distinct and charming; I have never seen an American company make one like it!
Enjoyed your tour of your home with great ideas especially the picture placement as I bought a 1960s cottage I have new ideas for my renovations.
What a lovely house. Well done.
How lovely it all was, though some of it not to my taste. What a lovely woman and ethos for their home.
Nice Soul, nice nice nice House! LOVE IT!
I love her-always have. Thank you!
Beautiful home!
Love this home tour
I love this home!!!
Wow that wallpapered bedroom 😍
Gorgeous house
A delightful video, beautiful home❤
This video caught my eye because we have the same last name. Now I'm glad I did. What a lovely home.
