OMG! Thank you everyone for the amazing comments - you've blown me away! I'm so grateful for those lovely words. I'm tickled pink that you like my work - that's magic to a designer's ears (or eyes in this instance!!). Thank you!
So my boo doesnt like the idea of so much color in our future home or all the feminine touches, but when we watched this episode, you completely changed his mind about incorporating all that vibrant colors, especially the pink. So thank you so much for bringing to life this and making it not feminine or masculine but just lovely and comforting. I'm Cuban so your love for color texture and especially birds speaks close to home :)
Absolutely beautiful.. she is now one of my favourite designers.. perfect choice of colours.. so vibrant.. her philosophy is so interesting... She has a artistic mind.. she has magic' in her hand.. that dining room painting was so beautiful..❤️
Rick Spence makes these videos so enjoyable. He asks good questions - and, most important, he lets the decorator answer uninterrupted. Great interviews!
Her personality is happy, bright, like a 🌈. Her house definitely represents her joy for life. When the camera 🎥 filmed the bathroom I giggled out loud because it’s zany and fun. I would never leave that little room. Good job on the house, you seem like a very sweet soul!!
Very colorful home. But also inviting. The home is loaded with personality. And the washroom.....I actually loved that wallpaper, and I do not like wallpaper. Beautiful home. Wishing Monique and her family a wonderful future. Thank you for sharing. Stay safe.
Thank you for your kind words! I'm thrilled that I may have tempted you to the dark side (ie the wonderful world of wallpaper!! LOL). You stay safe too!!
Wow! I absolutely love every aspect of this house! What and incredibly talented designer. I’ve never seen another home where money wasn’t a factor and yet, like me, the countertops were done in Corian. I love my Corian and haven’t seen it used elsewhere. The bold and gorgeous colours used in the home have inspired me to actually show my love of bold colours as well. Thank you Houzz for all of your inspiration throughout or home Reno!
You've created a gorgeous house Monique and thank you so much for choosing the St James Whitting Elementals Collection coloured by Resene for your paint colour palette
Sometimes very colorful spaces can be a bit overwhelming to the eye, but these are not. Not at all my style, but all the rooms here are elegant, fun and happy. Well done!
To use Monique's words of the universe stepping in to nudge you is what I allow to happen. I take my time and don't force anything to be done just for the sake of it being done. If you take your time and let things evolve then you end up with a home that completely reflects your true style. I absolutely love her pops of color.
This was really refreshing,it's one of these moments where you could tell the designer is an artist too. Love the pop of colors here and there, especially the pink! Who could know pink can be added in every room so intelligently, and not being so girly?! And the marriage between the light blue and pink! so harmonious, really love it, too much ideas to take from.. Enjoy it!
I have a complete different opinion about colors in an interior after seeing this video. I absolutely love the color of the kitchen; it works so well with the black and white floor, the pink upholstery from the chairs and the amazing striped fabric from the benchseat. I will look for this "Escape from Alcatraz" color for the future. Great video.
I loved everything except the living room (looks cheap!). The kitchen is an absolute delight and I would love spending time in such a vibrant space. Well done!
I love the floor. Your eye keeps going and it adds interest. One thing I'm very happy about is that you chose Corian. I chose Corian for my new bathroom countertop surface. A decorator tried to shame me for choosing it but I wouldn't budge because it's so durable for a family. Now, I'm happy I used what works for us.
It was a colour fest ... you have to be good to get it right. A little extra to the left ..the it all comes tumbling down. Congratulations to you for nailing it
It’s stunning simply stunning everything is spot on! I absolutely adore your artwork maybe you could title it, “Girl with Kokoshniki”. I giggled when you referred to yourself as a “Russophile”... I’m an Anglophile, and I love appliances especially my AGA Hob it’s a beautiful Pistachio color with stainless steel accents. I went with a SMEG Fridge in a Light Pink. “Escape from Alcatraz”? I thought you were going to say something like, “Robin’s Egg Blue”. I almost fell off my chair, that was funny! The three Pendant Lights over your Island are beautiful... Brass? The fabric on your window sear are lovely but, I love the pop the Hot Pink on your chairs give! Accenting with a matching but different fabric on the back of the chairs, what a fabulous idea! I also have a Black & White checkered kitchen floor... However, I went with the more traditional diamond configuration. I love the way you made a border with the solid Black tile, it’s ingenious! Congratulations on your beautiful home, may you and your family enjoy it in happiness and good health. P.S. The wallpaper in your Powder Room is dreamy... Would you please, tell me who the manufacturer is and the name or number of your Wallpaper.
Hello Jane - thank you for your lovely comments and I'm so glad you got a giggle out of it too!! The wallpaper in the powder room is from Osbourne & Little, called 'Menagerie'. PS - everyone thinks the "Escape from Alcatraz" was perfectly apt for a powder room! LOL
So gorgeous I love love love the blue.art work such gorgeous colours is beautiful I love the whole kitchen esp hideing the appliances .my partner said don't want wallpaper as it will peel it off.I sae one with bright gold fish and black back ground might get it hopefully my partner might like it he usually let's me do what I want to the house so fingers crossed thank you lovely house x

Such a rarity to see vibrant colors throughout a beautiful home. In a world of gray and white, this is a gem!

Not easy on the floor. However, you nailed it on the color combinations.
Eye candy without a doubt. Gorgeous. Love the color combinations and furniture. So unique. Beautiful talent.
You know something is well done when you can really appreciate it, even though it’s not your style. This is so girly and colorful and just happy!

This is a home I would never want to leave. Very keen to follow Monique’s work-every little corner sparks joy 💥💥
Houzz, you make me happy. We are buying our first home next year and you guys are going to help us furnish and design.
Everything is just stunning! What a breath of fresh air to see gorgeous colors that bring joy and vibrancy! This woman is so lovely and talented.❤️
I LOVE HER DECOR.........its not for everyone [she thinks out of the box.
So vibrant colours and how wisely she has made the combination of colours
We love the pops of color! So stunning!
thank you!
I absolutely love the vibrant colours! And that bathroom is stunning! 💖

That colour scheme is bang on for me. Love it.
Fabulous. Favourite room is powder room. That wallpaper 💜❤️💜😍😍😍 and that shade of blue on walls and on kitchen cabinets ❤️💜❤️💜❤️
Such a joyful home - reflects Monique's personality. Love the son's room.

What a playful, whimsical and fun interior space. “Escape from Alcatraz” paint color/shade name is such a brilliant idea! Brava ✨💫

So vibrant; she should definitely replicate and sell that painting in the kitchen....SOLD!

I am not a native speaker, so may I ask: what are the counter tops made of again? That material sounded interesting!
realmente hermoso

Hello. What architectural interior design is this? Its beautiful.
to be honest, I'm not sure! I just go with my gut feel and what's right for the home and the people that live there I'm so glad you like it!
Does anyone know what fabric is on the kitchen window bench? I love it!!!
In. LOVE 💗💜🦄
absolutely sell your artwork! I love, love, love the artwork. When I heard you did it, I thought Oh No! I can't purchase that!
Where is the oven !?

@@MoniqueSartor I see ! Thanks for link . Those ovens don’t look unattractive!
Inspired by Anna Spiro!!…😮😮😮
Beautiful!!!!! but those chairs for kids doesn’t work for us
😍😍😍😍😍😍
I thought you were Frank's daughter!
I like her taste. Mine is eclectic too, but in a different way. I love colour, and I really dislike the push towards neutrals in home design. Boring!
Faint!
