  • Tag along for a day at designer Alex Papachristidis' welcoming family home in the Hamptons. While the house may be rather formal, the way the extended family lives in it is not. Every room is used, with children, dogs and guests galore. From the elegance of the interiors, to the monumental sculpture in the gardens, it is a house full of exquisite details and craftsmanship. Alex’s gift is not only creating an environment of luxurious beauty but the level of warmth and hospitality with which he shares it. See more of the house here: quintessenceblo...

    So unreal, I watched this show about 100 times, and I realized it will be my first time commenting on it. When, where I live, in Quebec city, Canada, it is winter tine and about -30C I love to watch this show not only because of the beautiful house, but also because of the wonderful manicured landscape(garden) and the tennis court :) .. now it is summer here and still I found myself watching the sow AGAIN (LOL). Anyway, that must say something either I am an addict of the show .. and Suzanna and Alex or I am an addict of wonderful and beautiful things, especially dishes - nice table setting, etc. ... Finally, every reason is a great one to watch your show, Suzanne. You are a wonderful hostess .. thank you again for a wonderful moment here - (hope that I did not make to many typos .. since my first language is French... it does happen ) Much love and appreciation. - Rosalind.

    • @quintessenceblg
      @quintessenceblg  7 років тому +2

      Dear Rosalind - I would reply in French but my French is much worse than your English which is excellent. I am SO very pleased to hear how much you love this visit with Alex and hope you saw our latest video with him setting the table in his NYC apartment. Susanna and Alex have a wonderful on screen chemistry which makes it even more fun!! Thank you again for your viewership and comment! All best - Stacey (Quintessence)

    Back again to my favorite, magnificent place with you Suzanne and Alex where it is sunny and gorgeous. I love bleu and white dishes, and this gorgeous table that Alex did set inspired me so much. I have all white dishes here, I found some bleu chargers, put my white dinner plate on top, added some gorgeous made in Italy bleu big bowls (good for pasta or salad) on top. I found some linen napkins (Ralph Lauren) to set aside. It looks fantastic although I did not have to purchase a whole set of blue and white dishes, I have the same effect. In a big wooden tray, I added all the little bowls that bleu and white and did exactly what Alex did : put all different condiments for the salad. Final find, a big Bleu and White chicken made of porcelain to put on the middle of the table along with the tray. A little vase Bleu and White (Bombay & co) with some flowers. I tell you that in every show that you do, we can find an idea - THANK YOU again so much. Happy Spring !!

    I love the kind of rich people that love their homes, love design and seem to love being together, to enjoy being wealthy. Too often, they don't enjoy their homes or each other.
    These are the type of rich people that make me jealous that I am not rich. I would love to work for families like this - cleaning their homes as a live in - because I am a loner and like doing solitary things (but not in public).
    I love design and have spent decades pouring over Architectural Digest (reading the articles) and studying the theories behind the ideas. I was heart broken when Connoisseur Magazine folded.
