side note: i bought the bambu labs p1s for their black friday sale. they sent me a used AMS unit that grinded up the filament and ripped the spools out of the unit. their customer service is horrible, after returning the unit, they assured me it was reshipped over night and it was not. it's been a month of lies and finally they told me it was out of stock after assuring me i twas in transit.
it's still not been replaced. i had to call my bank to reverse the charges
sensoydyne makes you feel more pain than normal paste somehow
Excellent as always! I send all my friends struggling for inspiration ( or to figure out that their layout is a disaster – without me having to say it😅) to your channel! Xo from Canada ❤️ channel
Does anyone know where I can buy the nightstand at 11:04?

Reynard, I like your channel so I always try to leave a comment or 2 to help boost the algorithm.
I would like your thoughts on a concept or a design technique I haven't seen done before.
In a room that is very lux, refined and formal I like to mix a few small elements that fit in color and scale, but are actually rustic and worn.
OR.
Now I live in a rustic cottage, so I like to add some over the top expensive elements, as long as they are right for the space. Not so crazy as a chandelier in a shed, but almost as contrasting. Example might be an expensive velvet side chair and an ornate marble coffee table, with a small gilded mirror. This example is too extreme but the basic idea.
This type of contrast creates a tension that I think is very interesting, and very unexpected.
Do you have any thoughts? I haven't seen this done, and I discovered this by accident.
But I like it and don't know why exactly.
What city is the one in 1:49?
Beautiful and very understandable advice ❤❤❤❤
You recommended Castlery for furniture…they do not have stores…hard to tell quality and color of fabrics on a picture…
Woah, don't just tell people they have to get a more expensive rug because it fits, give solutions that match their budget! How about using several smaller rugs, put together? How about using wood stain, or paint, or floor tape (or other markings designed for flooring) instead of carpet? There's more than one way to mark an area!
A+ content for designers, would love if you did a series with each video focusing on a specific design principle. Like one on contrast and all aspects of contrast in design development and execution.
Great writing and presentation as usual, Reynard.
Where did you get the green night tables?
Sometimes there is no choice in size of furniture when it’s brought from a larger house and you don’t have the luxury of buying new furniture…
….whooo watches TV for longer time while sitting? Laying on the sofa, a higher high mounting position is quite beneficial!
Love your recent content! Keep it up! 😊
I really appreciated the tip about not building a room you feel "meh" about.
Good video, but you need a new background. It has become 'Meh" for me!
you’re right, don’t forget to do what makes you happy 😊
Hi Reynard,
How many of these design principles should a space have?
Should all be there in every space. I understand scale n proportion is non negotiable. Contrast and repetition should also be there in every room?
I wish that I had that problem of too much space. We in Europe, often have to deal with a bedroom where the smallest bed you fit in takes up 70-80% of the entire room! Or that you don't know where to put shoes and coats because the entrance or corridor gets so narrow that you constantly bump into things!
Hi Reynard, I'm a few hours up the coast from you and really appreciate your videos. I'm lucky to have bought an old boarding house from 1918 with 10 foot ceilings, ornate chair rails, Victorian fireplaces, 6 inch hardwood floor boards and skirting (tallowood) and 6 inch wall and ceiling lining (red mahogany) so there is so much detail above plasterboard lining. Saying that, I rely on your advice regarding rug size, stepped and varied lighting and so much more. My wife and I hope to incorporate a bit of your design magic into curtain size and so many other finer detail features like mid wall accent lighting. Of course you know how fortunate it is to have 10 foot ceilings so lighting can be 2 foot below it to properly light the space and even accent the tongue and groove ceilings. Also, I'm 6 foot 3 and my wife is 5 foot 1 so we need to compromise on TV height but we'll get there!
How help was this? Thank you a million Reynard. We recently bought a house in Italy and I have been trying to make an effort make it look beautiful. Watched lots of interior designers videos but you just nailed it with he amount of useful tips you are giving in just one video. Well done and thank you again!
Thank you for this great presentation. It really does help understand. Unfortunately, I did scan the qr code which allowed me to fill in my email, but I checked every tab and spam… I didn't receive the pamphlet… perhaps there is an error somewhere in the processing ?
