HOME TOUR | A dreamy bohemian oasis for immersive outdoor living in Ojai, California
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 вер 2022
- Tag along to Ojai, California for a behind the scenes visit with designer and shop owner Isabelle Dahlin and husband, chef and restauranteur Brandon Boudet. Conveniently located between Los Angeles and Santa Barbara, the bucolic town of Ojai is celebrated for its natural beauty, temperate climate, and focus on ecology, organic agriculture and the arts, all with a relaxed sophistication. Here Dahlin and Boudet found a small house on an acre of isolated land next to a lemon orchard. Learn how together they created a dreamy bohemian oasis with outdoor areas for cooking, lounging and even guests. See how they transformed what was once a carport into an open space for al fresco dining with an outdoor kitchen outfitted with a wood burning gaucho grill and beehive oven. Watch to see how they quickly added a pool and pool house, surrounded by a wooden deck, barrel sauna (Dahlin is Swedish) and anchored by a tepee for an immersive outdoor experience. With Isabelle’s background in design and Brandon’s restaurant and culinary expertise they have created a compound with a focus on the organic and natural, where outdoor living and entertaining is celebrated and enjoyed throughout the year! You’ll be inspired, informed and entertained!! For more visit quintessenceblog.com

The tent room is amazing! What creativity. Thanks for sharing. Now I am hungry!
Amazing, wish it was longer. Want more❤️👏👏
The outdoor space with the dining areas was really beautiful and tasteful. The dogs and the couple were very nice but a shame we did not see more of the interior if the outside is anything o go by it will be wonderful. Loved the collection of crushing on the sofa. The food looked wonderful.
I really enjoyed their outdoor spaces, and the fresh food, prepared simply but with extra touches to make it beautiful. I really wanted to see their house!

Yes I wanted to see their decorating style in their home however can appreciate their privacy.
@@janice5218 me three!!!
Love how the beautiful dog joined in the ping pong game!
Every time I see one of your video tours pop up in my feed, I get a little spark of joy. I so enjoy them. Thank you.
Thanks so much! Delighted to hear that!
Haha! So true. I literally dropped the stuff I was doing when I saw that there was a new Quintessence video!
@@itinerantmendicant THANK YOU!! Love that! 🙏🏻
Love this informal style of living. Beautiful and restful.
What a marvelous place of delicious food, plants, flowers and hospitality. This was a fun and educational video, thanks for sharing!
What a lovely, relaxed lifestyle! You can see that the couple simply live their passion. Such a peaceful peek into a special home. Thank you as always for sharing.
relaxed lifestyle w. all of those businesses?
I loved that teepee by the pool, down in the garden. It's far more aesthetically pleasing than a camping tent and much less expensive than building a pool house. Tents turn into ghastly saunas on hot, sunny days but tee pees are roomier and a better idea. The day bed mattresses inside were a great touch. I imagine how nice it would be to have a swim and then have a nap in there...or when there's a summer rainstorm you can dash in and play a game of cards or read and have lunch. I love this channel too. 😊
I love this channel’s theme instrumental! ❤
Fun! That luncheon looked heavenly. The property is beautiful. How lucky they are to have found it and made it, so delightfully, their own.
Yes!!
Brilliant outdoor space. The teepee is so cozy!
It’s so great! Glad you enjoyed!
Hello! What a amazing, beautiful and fantastic place! Thank you so so much! It was an amazing trip!!!!
Isabelle and Brandon are fortunate to have complimentary interests that make their life together fulfilling. I like the colorful decor and the food looks fresh and delicious. Ojai is a beautiful and peaceful place. The doggie trying to catch the ball made me smile. Thank you Quintessence for all of your delightful videos. I enjoy viewing your videos again and again.
Thank YOU Barbara for watching and for your thoughtful comment!!
Love watching the plane land, I think where are we all going today. Love ! With expenses of grocery prices out of control ,plus fuel. I get to go with you and appreciate life threw your eyes!
Thank you so much!! Glad you enjoy your vicarious travels. Thanks for tagging along!
Lovely restful place to be. Simple food with a magical touch.
Living off the land, so to speak. Good for them! Thanks for sharing.
Our pleasure!
What a beautiful property.The teepee is too perfect!☺
That is outdoor living at it's best. Being surrounded by nature, growing their food, gorgeous gardens...I love it! The teepee is so cool and larger inside than it appears, at the end. What a great spot for a stayover guest! Thank you, again, for these great tours. 😄
Our pleasure and yes, the tepee is spacious!!
What a beautiful outdoor space.
It really is - glad you enjoyed!
Love their lifestyle...and their dogs!
Oh my goodness. Why did it end ?????

Thank YOU! Hope you enjoy!
No words for “keeping it real.”
Love the outdoor space! Curious about the rest of the house. 😊
Poor Q we’re all saying
Let us in that house!!!
@@janice5218 🤣
When I think of California THAT'S what I think of. Ahhhh. Breathe.
I think that's why people love Ojai - it feels like the "original" California!
The food looked so yummy and fresh vegetables to die for. What a fun couple. Thanks Susanna and Stacey
Our pleasure! Glad you enjoyed!
Yes, those tomatoes! Every time I see people in the supermarket buying the cheapest punnet of tomatoes, which smell of nothing and taste of nothing I want to weep, and a combination of pity, frustration and disgust overtake me and form a brand-new emotion. My view is to always spend as much as you can afford buying tomatoes and if you can't afford to splurge then don't buy tomatoes. It's a pathetic thing to witness. To think, some folks have no idea that they're eating tasteless crap and have no idea what good quality in-season tomatoes actually look and taste like. In the UK, buying stone fruit is a total waste of money. Always unripe, sour tasteless garbage. Once you've had a PROPER white peach...holy smokes, it ruins you for life. I wonder what produce YOU avoid buying if you can't get the 'good stuff'? 😅
Outdoor living at it's finest. What fun. I imagine you're not the only one....they have lots of company, lol.
The treat my morning coffee needed, thank you!
Our pleasure!
This is what I love--- casual, unpretentious, with a good helping of "My big fat greek wedding". Opah!!😊😊
Incredible place !!!
I have to go to work but guess what I'm watching when I get home!!? You guessed it Quintessence!!!😊😉🥰
Thank you! Hope you love!
Now this is beautiful
Wow, what a delectable spread! The property is a dream too. I‘d love to be able to entertain like that someday!
What a fun place. I adored the floral painted bench! I can’t wait to make one of my own.
So hungry after watching this.. Susanne you girls need to start a food/cooking channel.
LOL probably not happening but we love great food and creative chefs!
Beautiful outdoor spaces!
That was fun and unusual. Veggies looked delicious. Love Ojai.
Thanks Joe! The food WAS delicious!
Maravilloso !!! 👏👏👏👏
That teepee is beyond cool!
Que estilo mas relajado y encantador. Todo lo que muestras es precioso!!

Finally got to watch the new video clip.
What a beautiful space! The food looks scrumptious!❤ Thank you for sharing!
Our pleasure! Glad you enjoyed.
so much fun! It is a gorgeous area, and obviously Isabelle and Brandon have created a lifestyle just perfect for it. Another fabulous peek into the best homes!!
Thank you!
More please!
Oh, that food! I’m ready to hop in the car and drive to Carpinteria to try his restaurant!
The food was amazing!!
Best channel ever🤓
THANK YOU!!
I wish I could borrow him to cook for me. I am just salivating (over the food). It was fun, too, watching the pups planning shenanigans in the background, lol, with one deciding to "help" Suzanne play ping pong at the end. Would love to revisit this interesting couple.
So glad you enjoyed! The food was DELICIOUS!!
I love 💕 all of your beautiful videos. Thank you 😊.
Thank YOU for watching!! 🙏🏻
Que hermosa casa hermoso lugar y que estilo de vida tan bonito: relajado

Hi! Could you do a video on the magazines and books you would recommend - both niche as well as affordable? Is vendomepress a good buy?
@@oeendrila we wouldn’t do a video about them but I have written about many books on my site - and Vendome publishes many lovely books
@@quintessenceblg great I’ll check out the site!
Delicious.
So disappointred we didn't get to really see the interior.
Their focus is really on an outdoor lifestyle!
Yumm.
BOXERS! :)
What is the name of your intro music? I love it!
It's from a site specifically for film and tv production - glad you enjoy!
Omg I thought you were serious when you said you didn't like the dish. Lol
🤣😉
I see that the owner had tall boots on in summer....that tells me 'snakes' or similar. I wear my tall rubbers outdoors amongst all of my gardens due to the thousands of bees that are on the blossoms of my groundcovers, my annuals & perennials & fruit trees. Then of course, there are the rodents in amongst everything! I won't even mention earwigs in every joint or crevice of furniture or beneath stones, planters, above door casings....cushions would be joke here in the NE.
Jaime Sommers and Steve Austin grew up in Ojai.
A Bed and Breakfast Teepee! 😸😸
The ideal life.
Susanna looks fantastic in everything people give her to wear. I could watch an entire video of her being dressed by fabulous people with a great eye; even things that droop dubiously on a hanger or have confusing and complicated tailoring would end up looking incredible on her. It's a magic trick, every time. Such a delightful bonus in these videos. 😊 Please model some Comme de Garcon for us-- you're my #1 choice!😄
She does indeed! And stay tuned - we have a special treat for you coming!
What a kind and lovely thing to read this morning! Thank you SO very much and for watching and stay tuned for more houses and outfit changes!
I love those drapes in the pool house. I wonder if she has them in her shop?
Not sure but you could call or write Isabelle at the shop!
. . . luxurious living disguised by extreme cazh (casual style). Wat too short, but I'll check out the magazine.
Not disguised at all - it really it luxurious bohemian organic living!
Great place!!!!! Super good!🥰😘🤗❤️💖🏵️☀️💐 Would Like to be invited....😍 Love from Marseilles☀️☀️
What about the rest of the house this was mainly promoting his restaurants
So the property is hilly? As everything is right out side of the house entrance an acre is not that small yet everything is crowded in =/ I have an aversion to scorpions and rattle snakes which up in the hilly areas are a real thing in Cali
minimal tour
The boxers are cute!
