  • A weekly newsletter of home and interior inspiration, delivered to your inbox: themodernhouse...
    Georgina Johnson, the creative polymath and author of The Slow Grind: Finding Our Way Back to Creative Balance, is encouraging today’s generation to be mindful with their time. “Taking things slowly and resting shouldn’t be a privilege. You have to check in with yourself,” she told us when we profiled her in Issue No.5 of our magazine. “It can save your life sometimes.” That was our first encounter with Georgina, when we spent the morning at her house in Sydenham, south London, and spoke to her about the importance of repair and regeneration. But, having fallen in love with her home and the second-hand objects within it, we went back for round two and asked her to share her Seven Wonders.

    Even if this wasn’t my style. The fact that it has so much character and represent her personality so well is incredible to see. Loved it.

    Her approach is so personal and sustainable. To me secondhand things feel more special because they’re often, effectively, one of a kind or close enough to that, and come with a story, a memory or an untold history. I like the joy with which she describes her life & space, and the sharedness of it - taking joy not just in the interior she has put together but in the nearby space her neighbours created in their garden.

    I love how her PERSONALITY is imbued in her SPACE.
    Her interiors are unique, inimitable and so engaging, just how a Home should be.

    "If I'm cooking, you better know where the sink is" Lol. I love that she seems to have enjoyed her time in my city (Mx City).

    Really enjoyed this, her home seems to reflect her personality. Her skirt reminds me of traditional Jamaican fabric

    Really made me smile. Her lifestyle is realistic and admirable and her personality radiates throughout her home. I liked everything about this, until she said if she's cooking you better know where the sink is, 'cause you're doing the washing up!

    Just discovered your great channel! You're like my partner's sister...you would jive tight with my outlaw sister as we call her because my partner & I aren't yet in legal marriage. I'll tell Darla Hoy about your channel so she can watch & comment & subscribe...Vonner, my partner, also adores you now he's discovered you. Thank you. We all love thrift shops, charity stores, garage/yard sales, website sales...we have nice lives also shopping there. You mention how you love color...so do we live for color. You're wonderful, smart, friendly having had a good family & world upbringing. My beloved Vonner & sister Darla are from the Philippines also having lived many beautiful ocean lands & islands. My partner's family honestly adopted me into their home as did my parents with them. Please continue to share your great videos. Much success & fun always.
