Finally! A maximalist designer! And a fabulous one at that. What a refreshing change to see colour, pattern - possessions! Love the fabrics used here and all the personal touches. H&H more of this please.
You all need to check out this Designer’s house if you haven’t already. You will be blown away. So bold and full of colour. She’s so creative. Love what she’s done here.
@@phyllisarrington7436 If you can afford that Chandelier you can afford to have someone clean your home or at the very least to have somebody come twice a year to clean it.
I am glad to see Cynthia appear on this channel!!! I Love her maximalist style and one day I move to Toronto I would have her to design my home. but now I need to save up.
Penny!! Thank you so much! I really appreciate your kind words and support! It is always difficult to know how your thought process is going to come across...especially when you are a creative and known to be easily distracted!
I don't think it was courageous at all. I think it was a complete miss. The designer said herself, as a maximalist designer you don't want one room to be stronger than another. Well?! That living room is anemic compared to that dining room.
I love this style. It makes me happy looking at it and I can only imagine how happy the homeowner feels. I think that I am also going to hire this lady to make my next home sing.
What a great space. Those dining chairs are terrific! I always enjoy seeing this designer’s work. I love when she said, “We have a showroom. Now I want to make it your home.” Side note-I really, REALLY appreciate that she speaks so clearly without forced vocal fry and without rising intonation at the end of every sentence.
Oh thank you so much Shelley! We are just the guides for our clients. We design for them and what they are looking for...but I have to admit, I do LOVE this project!!
I love it. It is max but not overwhelming. Love the dining room but wouldnt do all the wall green, maybe just an accent wall. I love the wallpaper. This inspire me so much
Absolutely love this place! The wallpapers are just beautiful, particularly the that green dining room! It’s all so fresh, light, airy, and comfortable.
First time to post on "House and Home" as I love everything! I have been watching these videos for years. In this video, the two different floral drapery in the rooms didn't flow in my opinion. Love the green in the dinning and thought it would be great on the living room window too.
We were able to use two different floral draperies as the living room drapery is set back in it's sight line. The patterns are the same...just the colours are different which is kind of fun!!
Gorgeous 🤩also one of the best videos that l have seen in a long time . Loved the Philip Jeffries grasscloth wallpaper and the art . You can never go wrong with Schumacher! The designer gave a lovely peaceful description of each room and her vision behind it . Bravo 👏🏻
Not my style, but so happy to see some design with color! Every one is doing all neutrals with pale oak floors. This was so refreshing and so well done!
Thank you Kathleen! Everyone's home needs to fulfill different aspects for the families that live in them. I find it helpful to understand the approach we took and why.
Minimalist here but I really like it! Sure, there are things that I want to reduce if I were living there, but the place isn't overwhelming to the senses. Good one!
Aren't them amazing?!! I fell in love with them but of course I wanted to custom finish them so we bought them unfinished and did a custom stain and upholstery on them. The shape is amazing isn't it?!
After seeing her home tour, I knew this was going to be good. I'm a maximalist myself and just appreciate how warm and inviting your home can be without being cluttered. And thank you for color... If I see one more all white home with plants and warm woods as color, I'm going to scream. I'm not against it but I also like to see variation so we can see different concepts across the board.
Don't forget the occasional black accessory 😂 I could've written your comment word for word, the all white or grey / extremely pale blue interiors with pale wood furniture and white upholstery are so ... ugh 😂 I've been looking at spaces for months now asking myself what happened to colour? How is it possible that the entire world can like this colourless blandness so much? I felt like a crazy person 😅
@@NanookiePookie oh yes, we exist! I don't know how we ended up in a world where even decor styles you would expect to be loaded with colour and texture - like farmhouse for example, or any Spanish decor style like Hacienda - are all so white or grey!! Once I learned from another video that maximalist decor isn't about cramming 10,000 things into a room and started using it as a search term, I've found so many cosy, colourful appealing spaces! With real warmth too, not just beige or taupe walls 😅 The fun part is, unlike minimalism where all the houses look the same, maximalist spaces look very different from one another and full of personality. They are an absolute treat to look through. 💖
Jesus... Kuan Yin... Saint Germain... Please, give me more than enough money to hire Cynthia Ferguson, buy an incredible house and to be able to afford a super renovation and design work... Thank you! hahahahaha I love this house, this is so beautiful.
This is a showroom like a arty-fatty boutique! Bold & daring is key here. If there’s anything I would change, hmmm, the color of the carpet(not that it’s a mismatch, but my personal taste) & the curtains. Beautiful prints minus the dragon image (again, my personal preference).
My next door neighbor who is a designer has Schumacher fabrics in all the public spaces . The main colors are very unique purple and a dark/brown orange. It works and is gorgeous… in fact Caspari even has a cocktail napkin with the same colors in the print . It really opened up my eyes to mixing up colors. Good luck 🍀
I would have kept the dining room in lighter bluish-grayish-yellowish colors on the walls (that would go with the carpet & the white-blue vases on the table). The lighter walls would be the base for adding the colorful art & flowers. Also I would change the curtains once the green on the walls is taken out (they are beautiful, but would no longer work). In the living room I was not a fan of the carpet. All the rest of the details & style are indeed beautiful.
i would like to see bedroom with white walls and florist green curtains, bed, painting, mixed with gold, but no venzels. kind of victorian but futuristic modern blyat 🧐
Suggestion for homeowner: the blue and white jars on dining room table are too close together...they need breathing space. Remove all, then play with combinations until you get it right. Keep some on your buffet or elsewhere. Place a round tray underneath the ones you decide to keep on the dining table. Use a paper circle under the arrangement to determine the size of tray you'll need. You may want to mix some small objects in with the porcelain on the tray for contrast and variety. You have a beautiful home!
I am definitely a reasonable maximaliste but I think how the living is just the prolongation of the dining is just awkward to have bright soft contemporain living room next to dark green and grany 60’s dining. Doesn’t flow well, two era and two different style.
Just a thought, how much money would have been saved if the dining room and living room were just painted in those colours and not papered? The effect would be the same as most people would not inspect for wall texture.
We have been painting walls for decades and I agree, the colour impact would have been the same, but the wallpaper, when you are actually in the space, does make quite a difference.
@@cynthiaferguson5705 not only you are brilliant at you job, you also have an amazing style and a wonderful house (I love that video!) But you have great answers!!!
Was a bit unsure about the dining room but when I saw the POV from the entry it looked great. Love how colors and pattenrs are introduced gradually and end up in a strong statement.
Yes I normally love eclectic decor but even with eclectic there's meant to be that carefree collection of loved items that "come together" where as this feels disjointed like 2 or more people styled it and it didn't quite work. Individually there are some beautiful pieces though ❤
Most of these are just too colourful to me. I do love more of a monochromatic maximilism. And there are exceptions to the same level of satiety. Baby pink looks stunning with saturated grass/poison ivy and other greens. Seen some beautiful settings on Pinterest.
This designer is a maximalist but maybe her clients are not. A good designer doesn’t impose her/his preferences on the client. The client should guide the design. Plus this designer’s maximalism is executed mostly by the use of color.
Every client has a different aesthetic we have found over the decades of designing interiors. My house has much more in it but that also takes time to collect and style.
Really liked the dining room but wanted to move the ginger jars to the side board and put the flowers on the table. Also I didn't dislike the living room but it didn't speak to the dining area as they say
Nice, but needs some tweaking. The dining room looks unfinished. Some more art would help. How about a mirrored screen behind the bar cart. Lamps instead of the too-big hydrangeas on the credenza. Switch the painting to the left of the window for the blue agates. Picture lights would help distribute the lighting around the room a bit better. Thanks.
The way she sways “object”, cracking me up!! Love the green dining room but either the curtains or the art are too much for me! But like almost all of the rest.

I have watched her homes video at least ten times. Such a pity we are not in Canada. Cynthia is the best max in this galaxy.
@@cynthiaferguson5705😅98i
I love Cynthia’s work and also her home tour online. This place is very maximalist style with big restraint for her. Great space.
I wish they would’ve turned on the chandelier so we could’ve seen how it looks lit up.
That would have been a great idea!! We totally should have done that! Sorry!
I was thinking about how the owners would dust it?
Right? I was like, she might be stylish, but she doesn't do anything...
@@phyllisarrington7436 If you can afford that Chandelier you can afford to have someone clean your home or at the very least to have somebody come twice a year to clean it.

Wow Trish!! Thank you so much!! It really came together and was so much fun to do!!
Love the colorful designs. I want to see the chandelier lit please!
I just said the same thing out loud!!
The chandelier is fabulous isn't it?!! I have been pitching the fixture for years....I was over the moon when my client said 'yes"!!
I am glad to see Cynthia appear on this channel!!! I Love her maximalist style and one day I move to Toronto I would have her to design my home. but now I need to save up.
Hi Jacqueline - thank you so much!! We would love to work with you one day!
Fantastic to see a house with personality! Great job Cynthia…best tour I’ve seen in months.
Penny!! Thank you so much! I really appreciate your kind words and support! It is always difficult to know how your thought process is going to come across...especially when you are a creative and known to be easily distracted!
That chandelier is everything!!! That feathered grass wall paper is amazing
So fantastic! Love the colors, patterns and textures...I could live here!
Me too! Do you think they will let us move in? x
One of my very very favorite designers of all time, love love love! I’m all for maximalist design.
I love how they were courageous enough to have 2 rooms in the same area be totally different.
Thank you! Each room can easily be it's own personality! No use in having all the rooms feel the same...this is way more fun!
I don't think it was courageous at all. I think it was a complete miss. The designer said herself, as a maximalist designer you don't want one room to be stronger than another. Well?! That living room is anemic compared to that dining room.

So cute! Thanks very much. When you said the rest of the house needs to be balance, I was looking forward to seeing the kitchen. Ooh. 😮 ❤😂
The design in this project is so spot on! Very well done and so interesting! I loved this project! ❤️

Love the dining room art, curtains, love the lounge room frames and curtains x 🙏😇🇦🇺🌼🕊️
I love this designer. Her explanations of how she styles are so helpful, detailed and logical. Super. Thanks.
Oh thank you Maggie! You are so kind!! You should see what really happens behind the scenes!! x
I was previously unfamiliar with her. I like her demeanor and presentation.
Cynthia’s own home is stunning! I’d love to have her come consult me with color lol. I just love her use of color

Those dining room chairs are cute 😍
They were the first element we chose for the dining room....and then the rest fell into place from there. They are pretty special!
This lady has a TH-cam where they went into her own house. It was great too!
Shhhhhhhh.....don't tell anyone! Lol....I am so glad you liked my house tour! x
Beautiful. Thank you for sharing the reasoning behind the design.
Thank you Kathleen! Everyone's home needs to fulfill different aspects for the families that live in them. I find it helpful to understand the approach we took and why.

Not for me but to each their own. Always love these videos
And this is exactly why we do the videos....to show different styles of design for consideration - some you like. Some you don't.
I love the look of those cane chairs
Aren't them amazing?!! I fell in love with them but of course I wanted to custom finish them so we bought them unfinished and did a custom stain and upholstery on them. The shape is amazing isn't it?!

So cool. But where is the rest of the house?
Oh it's top secret. You will just have to wait!
Using the same Schumacher Chiangmai Mai Dragon fabric in different color ways so close to each other….. trying to decide how I feel about that
My next door neighbor who is a designer has Schumacher fabrics in all the public spaces . The main colors are very unique purple and a dark/brown orange. It works and is gorgeous… in fact Caspari even has a cocktail napkin with the same colors in the print . It really opened up my eyes to mixing up colors. Good luck 🍀
I would have kept the dining room in lighter bluish-grayish-yellowish colors on the walls (that would go with the carpet & the white-blue vases on the table). The lighter walls would be the base for adding the colorful art & flowers. Also I would change the curtains once the green on the walls is taken out (they are beautiful, but would no longer work). In the living room I was not a fan of the carpet. All the rest of the details & style are indeed beautiful.
Thank you so much for your feedback. We were working to execute our client's vision in her own home and she is very happy!
The living room needs a brighter rug to counter the dining room over of colors.
This house is great... But not as great as that masterpiece house that this designer owns. I have that video on my Decor's playlist, amazing.
I am blushing!! Thank you! I have never been on a playlist!
@@cynthiaferguson5705 LOL but a video playlist with my fav decor, not a remix ft nicki minaj! 🤣
Yessss
Nice but dusting that chandelier would be a nightmare
i would like to see bedroom with white walls and florist green curtains, bed, painting, mixed with gold, but no venzels. kind of victorian but futuristic modern blyat 🧐
and same with some oceanic blue, greenish blue etc theme, with white walls and gold too 🧐
but all this should look rich and 20-30% more posh than youve imagined. kind of yves sain lourent a little 😂
Suggestion for homeowner: the blue and white jars on dining room table are too close together...they need breathing space. Remove all, then play with combinations until you get it right. Keep some on your buffet or elsewhere. Place a round tray underneath the ones you decide to keep on the dining table. Use a paper circle under the arrangement to determine the size of tray you'll need. You may want to mix some small objects in with the porcelain on the tray for contrast and variety. You have a beautiful home!
Hi Eva, thank you for your suggestions.

I am definitely a reasonable maximaliste but I think how the living is just the prolongation of the dining is just awkward to have bright soft contemporain living room next to dark green and grany 60’s dining. Doesn’t flow well, two era and two different style.

Agree. Too much of everything: colors, styles, patterns, deco stuff and mainly: they’re out of scale. The best thing on the dining room is “Tilda”.
The chairs are too awkward. Vintage would be better IMO.

Buy some paint and make your own art but splurge on the fresh flowers 🌸
It is lovely but the rooms need some moulding or additional art, especially in the dining room- looks a bit unfinished....
Decorating is a process....one that you add to over time as you collect pieces or art or furniture. It is ever evolving which is why it is so fun!
It doesn't look maximalist to me. It's pretty but not maximalist by my standards.
