Just popping that large chandelier over the huge curvy couch changed the look of the whole room…I even don’t mind the large painting now! Good job Arvin…
With that big Chandelier, there's no need for that bug art piece over the window. I think the art work all Hang a big high is to match the height of the art piece on top of the window....big mistake.
Would love to submit mine! My curtains and builder basic light fixtures will provide a laugh, but I legit need help finding a coffee table that looks good.
Agree 100%! I’m not even into interior decorating that much, but Arvin’s personality and laugh keep me coming back. I even now feel guilty about having “boob lights” in my house. Lol
i love Arvin's tips but can we just stop and talk about Andrew's edits?? without his edits, we could not imagine Arvin's suggestions for the rooms! good job!!
In the last room, the art above the doors would be perfect over the console, and the other larger art needs to be moved down a bit to eye level. I so agree with adding a statement chandelier! I wouldn't have thought of it, and it MADE the space!
One of your absolute best videos ever! So helpful and informative, positive, not too mean or petty, and of course, humorous. Some viewers probably would love to see more mean as long as it was directed at someone else and not themselves, so don't listen to them. Thank you for keeping it real.
@@ArvinOlano 😱😱😱 I just started screaming, “BABE, HE REPLIED!!!! ARVIN REPLIED TO MY COMMENT!!!” 🤣 He then asks, “what did he say?” I continue screaming, “I DON’T KNOW YET, HE REPLIED!!!” 🤣 You must know that you are not only a celebrity in our home, but also that fun, honest friend I would never get rid of regardless of how harshly you criticized my decor. 😂 So much love from Jersey!! ❤️😘😘😘 AND, I don’t have any social media accounts at all besides TH-cam, but I tell EVERYONE about “My Arvin.” 😂
I love this! I saw another TH-camr doing this recently and thought it was a great idea, so fun. I'm skeered to send you my little boho zen zone, you'd be like girl did you buy the entire World Market? 🤣❤️
I really like that gold rattan chair. The built in is perfect for art books and field guides maybe some large jars with dried flowers and a great candle on an iron pedastal
This video was so much fun...first of all I want to THANK those who sent their pictures and hope they take everything Arvin & the comments said as constructive criticism....I know how difficult it is for myself and many individuals to know what our specific style is and he did an amazing job taking very different styles and making an already good room look even better....Thanks again guys for being awesome sports and allowing us to learn from each and everyone of y'all.
Love this concept Arvin! Please do more of it. Everything you said was on point! And constructive criticism doesn’t need to be mean, it was entertaining and light fun!
You did a good job of “roasting.” I did laugh when you suggested moving the big antique piece to another room in the NYC apartment because there probably isn’t another room. I live in nyc and you can’t imagine how small the apartments are unless you are a multi-billionaire. My guess is she has no coffee table in the living room because it doubles as a bedroom with a pull out sofa or Murphy bed . It really is a pain moving furniture every night for your Murphy bed or pull out sofa. It is easier to have less furniture.
That big beautiful room needed a professional designer's eye and makeover, including a replacement of those two out-of-place shelving units. What an amazing space!!
Thank you so much for roasting my room!! So excited to put into work your suggestions 😊 I know it looks bachelor paddy lol 😂 definitely getting that chandelier.
@N D thank you! This is so helpful, I already told my husband to help me move the pieces down lol 😂 it’s hard with the high ceilings and surrounded by windows. It’s a work in progress
Laura, 💜 my top down shades ( I like plantation shutters for me too, not your current space) as I abhor curtains. Complete dust catchers needing their own wrangler🥴. Top down shades….. aaaaah
This was so good! I'd love to see more of these! The last room was so big, bright, and has so much potential, but has a very 'gallery' feel. Great tips! Love your videos!
I don’t know how you do it , but Everytime I watch your videos I learn exactly what’s right and wrong. I’ve listened to a lot of designers and I’ve never come away feeling confident with knowledge . We need Olano Design Studios everywhere . Make it happen!
You so just identified Arvin’s GREATEST TALENT, which is TEACHING!! His content just happens to be design. 😊 When an impeccable teacher does their job, you sometimes don’t even realize you are learning!! Just as importantly, you also walk away with the tools and confidence to get the job done yourself. This is truly an art in and of itself!! LOVE THIS!!! Sorry for the sap... YAY, Arvin O Design!! 😂
Is this a first? I love this video. Make it regular! Submitters need to be able to take a joke, but they'll get free great design advice in exchange. Very educational and entertaining. (And if you save just ONE person from displaying a GATHER sign, then your work here is done. 😂)
Just finished watching! I learned a lot. I love how you also gave recommendations aside from the roast lol💜 ever since I found this channel I’ve been soo much more into decor. Love you!!
Love Laura’s big white box room!! I see massive plants in there like a monsters or a giant fiddly fig in the corner there next to the massive outdoor glass door. Lots of good lighting for a plant like that and it could grow big! Looooove this space and loving the curved couch!!!
This was the perfect amount of meanness. Your laugh and fun personality take the edge of the mean, and your advice is very good. I really enjoyed this video. If this becomes a series, I'll watch every episode! 😁
The first space is mine and Omg I am dying 😂😂!!!!!! Yes, def going to get a new couch. My dog (Bowser) chewed up not only the cushion covers but the foam inside so it absolutely can’t be saved. Lolololololololol.
I am obsessed with your videos because you give no BS, you're very talented and honest, and you make me smile. Your candor is softened with your laugh, so as not to offend. I love these roast videos; I hit the pause button and quiz myself as to how I would change the room. Please keep them coming!
Yes, more! I put you on because I was really sad and knew you'd lift my mood. I've never met you but I adore you, Arvin! (A grandma helping to fix up our old house built in sections: the early 1700's, the mid-1800's, the 1940's, and the 1990's. The last 30 yrs have been spent landscaping the outside. NOW I'm ready to decorate!)
I really like that you took actual rooms that other people created and then you told them how to improve them. The links and the inserting of the pictures of the chandelier, etc. were genius. Let’s do this again!
LOVE that shell vase on top of the plinth and the branches. Very pretty! I love seeing people's homes that are not professionally designed. Like a blank canvas you can really go crazy with!
This is one of the best! so funny (am low-key guilty as charged for most of these roasts). Please make this a series, I would love to see more of this, don't we?
You did a great job on this. I think it really shows your knowledge on design when you can give recommendations on spaces where the decor style is not your own. Keep doing your thing Arvin 🖤
I loved it. They could have been more roasted but I love the tips. Lord knows we all need some. I hope you roast someone with farmhouse 😆. As a military spouse who lives in military housing. Farm house is like every other house here.
I think the tone/balance of roast and suggestions is perfect 👌 The editing really helped me understand how to fix the problems you identify. Looking forward to the next one!
Just as the last living room was “begging” for a chandelier…. WE’RE BEGGING for this to be a weekly series!!!! Absolutely your best video so far Arvin, In my opinion! In it you were so incredibly respectful, informative, creative and FUNNY! It also made me see other normal people’s decor style and made me laugh at and appreciate mine even more! 😍💘💘💘💘💘
The last space "the big white box", If she could either diy or hire someone to trim her glass doors it would help the space quite a bit. She could have large flat modern trim installed, completely making the space feel more luxury. Fun video, more in the future :)
Love it! Such good ideas!! The only thing, I would have told Brandy to move that lucite console over to the right wall and angle that cute armoire. Much Love, Sally Sue 🤔😇💖
Great video. Lol. If I sent you pics of my place, your recommendation would be to start with a bulldozer. I love my old lady house. And I really enjoy your videos.
In the last room I would move the large art piece above those large doors/windows & hang some beautiful drapes, floor to ceiling. Also, why is everything hung so high? I would definitely move the art to eye level & also incorporate everything Arvin said- a chandelier is a must have, as is art above the console table! This was a fun video, Arvin! It would definitely be a fun series! I love that you didn't really roast the viewers, you actually gave them some super helpful tips & ideas! xo

First, love that vase, LOVE that blazer! First house--It's hard to tell the dimensions from the photo, but I think she should rotate the sectional with one end of the sofa next to the wall. Then she'd have room for some other things, like the red chair, the ottoman, and maybe even a coffee table. I like to arrange LVR furniture so it creates an enclosed space, like a room within a room, separate from the entry. It feels like she has everything up against the wall to make room for walking through it. (That short wall in the path of the door doesn't help.) Totally agree with your carpet comments. Fourth house--One of those huge paintings should go above the low console. It seems the view through the glass doors is enough visuals for that wall.
You were so kind. Of course the setups are the way they are. NO ONE speaks person to person, face to face. Everyone "visits" with phones, iPads, computers in their hands. No memorable moments. That is why I have a basket on a console table and YES drop it in. OH and don't take too long in my "beautiful" bathroom. Those BR mirror pics. GIRL!!! Good job! LOL
You are absolutely gifted. I love the way you "roast" everyone's "situations" with respect, fun, and appreciation. Thank you for these great videos. Please, make this a series. I am sending you big hugs from Switzerland. And yes, we LOVE YOU here, Arvin.
Thank you Arvin for not going toooo full stop on mine (2nd home) I’m definitely looking at my gold chairs sideways now hahaha ! And you’re so right a floor lamp , why didn’t I think of that 🤷🏽♀️ Love🤍
What?! I literally thought of this idea for you a few weeks ago and was going to send you a DM on Instagram! Lol Love this! Make it a series please! So new and different
I think you got the balance just right, loved how you gave a positive roast but then gave really great suggestions. Too many people are just too mean, i love your positive energy!!! 😘
Great idea for a video! Thanks Arvin! Can you also do a video on decorating a sunroom? I really need ideas. Right now, it’s just fully white and blahhhh! I will send pictures. Keep up the great work. You’re truly one of my favs!
I'm late to the roasting party, but I'd love to see some plants in that curvy couch room. I'm so envious of that couch and what it does for that space!
i actually like the rug. i think it looks good against the dark wood flooring. its the only good thing in the room. btw, thats a good size dog. he needs lots of exercise. they should take him on a DAILY walks/run to use up some energy & then hes more relaxed at home & not chewing up couches out of frustration. lots of chew toys help, otherwise gate him to one room while youre gone, like the kitchen.

Agree!!
Yes please please! this us your career path! Fixing people's homes! I can see it already!
YES 100%
Agree
Agree.
I like that it's not just a roast (which is quite fun) but you also give some design tips to help out the people who submitted.
You know that’s what I’m here for !!!!!
@@ArvinOlano thank you 😊
He is always a gentleman. That’s why we love him. 🥰
@@ArvinOlano Yes...a regular series... maybe once a month? 2 mos? But maybe some homes that have a bit more furnishings rather than very sparse
O
Kudos to all the good sport followers for submitting their spaces!
Everyone was so excited to submit photos!!!
Love this video idea, keep it coming
I agree, good sportsmanship. Roasted for a good cause.
Just popping that large chandelier over the huge curvy couch changed the look of the whole room…I even don’t mind the large painting now! Good job Arvin…
Ohhhh yeah
With that big Chandelier, there's no need for that bug art piece over the window. I think the art work all Hang a big high is to match the height of the art piece on top of the window....big mistake.
please make this a series!! would definitely like to see more of your roasts and design tips

You got it!!!! NEW SERIES ALERT
@@ArvinOlano YESSSSS!
Ok, best video ever! Real life people (like me) with real life design problems :O thanks A! More vids like this :D
This is like drive by decor therapy and that is so much better than a roast! More of this please!
i love Arvin's tips but can we just stop and talk about Andrew's edits?? without his edits, we could not imagine Arvin's suggestions for the rooms! good job!!
Yes the sound effects!!
I’m laughing my fat ass, pregnant belly off! Please I demand more of these videos ASAP! Love ya, Alvin! 🤣
LMAO love it
Hello fellow pregnant lady. I see you're also nesting. 😂
Please make this a regular video. I REALLY enjoyed it.
Oh, you know what?: you should do a before and after of the homes you ROASTED, omg, i cant 🤣🤣🤣🤣
great idea!!
Awwh, the ottoman is for the doggie to look out the window, & your laughter lessens the “harsh” roasts you’re not mean or condescending- great tips!
In the last room, the art above the doors would be perfect over the console, and the other larger art needs to be moved down a bit to eye level. I so agree with adding a statement chandelier! I wouldn't have thought of it, and it MADE the space!
100%!
absolutely agreed
My Husband just walked in and said, “hi, Arvin!!” 🤣❤️
Hiiii!!!! We love the supportive husbands, boyfriends, girlfriends, partners around here
@@ArvinOlano ❤️😘😘😘
Artwork above glass doors also takes away from the outdoor views! Moving it was a good idea. 😎
Yes! I was thinking this, the view is the art on that wall.
One of your absolute best videos ever! So helpful and informative, positive, not too mean or petty, and of course, humorous. Some viewers probably would love to see more mean as long as it was directed at someone else and not themselves, so don't listen to them. Thank you for keeping it real.
I agree! Loved the video and the fact that it was a sweet roast, not a mean one. We’re all friends here 😄
I'd be willing to submit the madness that I call home just to hear the mischievous giggle.
bahahahaha i'll post on youtube next time for submissions
Lol same! 😝😂
This is the sweetest roast if it is a roast. But I love that you gave all your expert tips.
Love that so much
Shine on Arvin. Love you
Thank you!!! haha
...def don’t think you should have been “more mean.” 🤣🤣🤣 You gave great advice in Classic Arvin. 😊
Hahah ok GREAT 😂 wasn’t sure if you guys wanted me to rip them to pieces or be nice about it?!

😂😂😂
Lol 😂😋 i love world market 😜😂
You were nice and helpful to your viewers. Roasting was not real harsh. Enjoyed it very much. Love this idea.
I really like that gold rattan chair. The built in is perfect for art books and field guides maybe some large jars with dried flowers and a great candle on an iron pedastal

That was a Roast-recommendation moment 🤭🤭🤭🤭. You are so funny, Arvin, you made me LOL. 🤣. "PEACE & LOVE" ✌
Please do a follow up of them taking your advice
Love this concept Arvin! Please do more of it. Everything you said was on point! And constructive criticism doesn’t need to be mean, it was entertaining and light fun!
Got it!!!
You did a good job of “roasting.” I did laugh when you suggested moving the big antique piece to another room in the NYC apartment because there probably isn’t another room. I live in nyc and you can’t imagine how small the apartments are unless you are a multi-billionaire.

It really is a pain moving furniture every night for your Murphy bed or pull out sofa. It is easier to have less furniture.
That big beautiful room needed a professional designer's eye and makeover, including a replacement of those two out-of-place shelving units. What an amazing space!!
You offered a good balance of critiques and suggestions.
I love blank walls. All those spaces needed lots of help with their walls.
AGREED !
Thank you so much for roasting my room!! So excited to put into work your suggestions 😊 I know it looks bachelor paddy lol 😂 definitely getting that chandelier.
Hope we Will see it when you Are done 🙏💞 beautiful home you have whit lots of options.
Laura,I think u should move ur art pieces n create a gallery on one wall. N paint the walls above the windows in a dark shade of grey .
@N D thank you! This is so helpful, I already told my husband to help me move the pieces down lol 😂 it’s hard with the high ceilings and surrounded by windows. It’s a work in progress
@N D I thought about that, the only problem is that if I put curtains whenever they’re put to the side they would block the TV 🤷🏽♀️
Laura, 💜 my top down shades ( I like plantation shutters for me too, not your current space) as I abhor curtains. Complete dust catchers needing their own wrangler🥴. Top down shades….. aaaaah
That last one with the large doors and view would also look great with some kind of plant or tree.
This was so good! I'd love to see more of these! The last room was so big, bright, and has so much potential, but has a very 'gallery' feel. Great tips! Love your videos!
This was so helpful!! How you usually show what we should do is educational, but I feel like your breakdown of what not to do was even more useful! ❤️
Love this series! That last space has so much potential. Totally agree it needs more personal touches, lower the artwork, add some more pieces
A few nice architectural plants would help soften it and look great against the white walls, plus they’d love all that light!! 🌿🌳🌱

I was thinking it was missing big beautiful plants too, that would probably reduce the "bachelor pad" vibes too lol.
Probably my favorite content from you!! Love the great ideas for each space. I will not be sending in my space.... needs way too much help, lol!

Arvin, your pedestal, snail vase, and delicate greenery is gorgeous! So perfectly balanced. I really enjoy your videos, thank you.

I love this video! You’re having fun with peoples houses while also giving great tips 🤩
Love these kind of videos, real life people's spaces and you helping with them, good roast!
Not the “time out chair” I cannot with you! I really enjoyed this video, you’re killing me, I engage in hyperbole of course!
Please do this as a video series once a week! This helps not just the person you’re roasting but EVERYONE watching!
"Let's address the rug..."
Well hello. You ARE a rug, aren't you?
I loved seeing all of this being reviewed! Some of these rooms really needed your guidance, but its constant trial and error in decor
First, love that vase, LOVE that blazer!

I love the second living room. Great character.
Andrew nailed the edits in this video. Great to see your recommendations pop in and out to give us a view of what you were talking about.
Sooo funn I loved this do it again queen!!! You were a respectful roaster ❤️
Thank you Arvin for not going toooo full stop on mine (2nd home) I’m definitely looking at my gold chairs sideways now hahaha ! And you’re so right a floor lamp , why didn’t I think of that 🤷🏽♀️ Love🤍
Your place is very pretty, I liked it a lot. And now it's going to be even prettier!
@@lsamoa Thank you so much! Means a lot and yes so true
I love those chairs! Just keep them in another area.
What?! I literally thought of this idea for you a few weeks ago and was going to send you a DM on Instagram! Lol
Love this! Make it a series please! So new and different
i thought the second room/home was really pretty. i love the shelf built-ins!
Cur ans. Love this, you’re helping one house at a time. Sometimes you have to be cruel, to be kind. 😂✌🏾👏🏾
Lol i really enjoyed this video. And thx to all the followers that were brave enough to be apart of this💕💕🥰🥰🥰
I think you got the balance just right, loved how you gave a positive roast but then gave really great suggestions. Too many people are just too mean, i love your positive energy!!! 😘
I agree, this needs to be a regular series….U crack me up…that laugh is so infectious !!!! I know, in case somebody is asking…😎
Gosh lmaoo😂 sooo insightful & entertaining. I’m a new subscriber & loving this channel💕
yayyyy
Great idea for a video! Thanks Arvin! Can you also do a video on decorating a sunroom? I really need ideas. Right now, it’s just fully white and blahhhh! I will send pictures. Keep up the great work. You’re truly one of my favs!
I love that you are always kind and never offensive... I really enjoyed watching this video! Thank you Arvin, love from Italy
I'm late to the roasting party, but I'd love to see some plants in that curvy couch room. I'm so envious of that couch and what it does for that space!
i actually like the rug. i think it looks good against the dark wood flooring. its the only good thing in the room. btw, thats a good size dog. he needs lots of exercise. they should take him on a DAILY walks/run to use up some energy & then hes more relaxed at home & not chewing up couches out of frustration. lots of chew toys help, otherwise gate him to one room while youre gone, like the kitchen.
I WOULD LOVE THIS AS A SERIES TOO! Reason why I subscribed. I have a small living room problem. Love all your tips!
Didn't know you/I/we needed this but we undeniably did!!!!! Loved this!! Make more!!! Thanks for the laugh and the help.
