    More is more! Designer Cynthia Ferguson takes us inside her 1930s bijou Toronto home saturated with color, pattern and artwork. She shares the dos and don'ts of maximalist design, so be sure to take notes. See how the designer created a statement entryway with bright red paint and playful Cole & Son pattern above the wainscotting. You'll be inspired to add wallpaper to your ceiling and use the color green in unexpected ways. The kitchen defies expectations with honed marble, blue-black cabinets and a gilt vent hood. Plus, learn how Cynthia made her petite bedroom feel grand and DIY-ed her bathroom walls!

    I love seeing what interior designers do with their own space because it's often so colorful, eccentric, eclectic, and full of individualistic personality we don't see in these beige trendy spaces designed for clients. I can't say all of this is for me, but it goes together well and she's clearly passionate about what she loves and her own vision of her space.

      @kyuu thank you for your reply! Maximalism, a lot of colour and pattern is certainly for the few, not the majority! Ironically I enjoy travelling to hotels that tend to me minimalist in design so I am able to experience another type of design I appreciate, but could not live in. We all can enjoy different design styles but ultimately select the one best for our own personalities.

    Finally, a designer whose idea of color is not a couple of spotches of color on a white room! I have a career where I live in other people's houses that I can't paint, so when I bought my own home, I committed to painting my rooms. I live in color. I love color. I play with patterns and texture against the color. No one ever enters my home and says "this is too much color" I love what this designer has done with color. I love the patterns, the wall paper, the ceiling paint. It's stunning and warm and livable. Even the black bedroom is beautiful. She's done an awesome job making her home unique and expressive with color. I love the green family room. I love that she's mixed patterns on the upholstery and curtains and I love the green lampshades. I have two rooms in my house in bright greens. I find green to be a color I can live with for a long time without tiring of the color. My living room is lavender with a deep purple accent wall, layered with shades of purple furniture and pillows and art work which I have balanced with antiques and modern shapes.

      Yeah, who wants to be near the sights and sounds of a kitchen, not to mention the smells. I love defined rooms with a specific purpose. Unless a house is so big that it has a separate "wing" for an open kitchen/dining area, open concept usually doesn't work. I think it is something real estate people thought up to make a place look spacious.

    If I'm being entirely honest, this home speaks to my soul right from the entryway monkeys on the wallpaper, down to the quirky painted bathroom and green entertainment room. Colour brings a home to life and even though it can be like a shock to the system in a sea of white, beige and bland minimalist modern homes, I think this is what I want in my home. I have somehow forgotten how much I used to love playing with colour. Growing up in high school, we moved a lot because my step-dad was a land developer and each room I had, my mom allowed me to decorate. I used to pick big, bold floral wallpaper patterns and bold paint colours to accent; then I would have a featured wall with wallpaper and paint the other walls above the chair moulding or wainscoting. It's so sad how much I had forgotten my love of colour.

    She only mentions it briefly, but I think the trick really is to keep a cohesive palette through a smallish house. So much drama, but also very natural, repeated, balanced color choices. It's not a bright blue with a bright green... the blue is muted, though still bold enough to hold its own. It's not hot pink everywhere, but strategically placed. Absolutely beautiful example of how editing makes maximalism effective.

      Yes exactly. When people who don’t yet have a good eye do color they don’t lighten or gray it down enough. You have to have all the colors in that paint mix. All her colors are rich but toned down. She knows how to mix. I would have painted the bathroom gray against white, same stunning pattern but tied into the marble herringbone tile more.

    I enjoy rewatching this video because the colors and patterns are a joy to look at. I can’t imagining taking apart a chandelier to customize it or hand painting a room before a showing. This decorator is my hero. I wish I had her insight.

    Luv her & the home. More people should embrace color in their homes. So many have embraced depressing color schemes that I can see why they need to be on some meds to live in those homes.

    I love your sensibility in design and color. You are a women after my own heart. An inspiration to me. I am 76 and have been chided about how I decorate. That is until I hired an interior decorator well known in my community. Gary walked into my foyer , living room and dining room and said to me “you do not need me”. I felt so validated. Ten years ago we downsized to a smaller, but not small house. I made mistakes about what I wished I had brought with me, namely some heavy draperies, that I could have reworked and a favorite overstuffed swivel rocker. After ten years and 8 major surgeries to save my life an auto immune disease, I am ready to finish unpacking and make this wonderful house my home. Your use of color, fabrics is an inspiration to me. So glad I found your channel❣️

    I love maximaliste. All the colors, texture, pattern are like a blanket. Love when you enter a house and instantly feel the welcoming coziness. Hate those empty white boxe that remember me an office waiting room. I must admit that the black master bedroom is so chic. It make everything pop. This is perfect.

I covered my settee and a accent chair, 13 years ago in a Warwick fabric, I believe it was called "Olive" it is crazy, in green red and black in a diamond and zig zag pattern. Visiting family, raised eyebrows, but then again no one in my family is as brave as my husband and I. We have loved it.

    I've watched a number of episodes of Schumacher1889 recently and quite a few of them have the maximalist mindset. Until I watched this episode, I didn't realize how "staged" the other homes felt -- like, how many books were PILED on every table space or counter. Nice for the video but feels quite inauthentic. This home, however, feels sophisticated, dramatic, elegant, beautiful, and REAL. How refreshing and heartwarming!
    Thank you for sharing this wonderful video.
