I prefer the more frequent small updates. Like where its your life and hey maybe you hung a light, maybe you bought a curtain. Just small little things instead of over the top grand reveal. Usually those kinda glaze over the process to save for time so I like seeing more of the real life hurdles of designing a home. Also we like you as a person so its fun to see your life as well!
I like seeing all the little day to day things you’re doing to your place. That’s how we all update our homes and it’s fun to watch your journey.
I personally would want the living room and kitchen to be the same color since the division isn’t clear..
totally agree
Such a cute place. I prefer the more frequent updates like a lot of others have mentioned! It’s fun to see it as you go and see the thought process of you picking things out and deciding on stuff rather than a before and after kind of thing.
a few random more functional tips (i grew up with my parents remodeling our old house so i see spaces and instantly go to that mindset)
1. shower curtain if fabric still needs a plastic backing to prevent mildew and mold - i love the idea of the ceiling certain but maybe do a sheer fabric bc the window lets in a lot of good light
2. get a bathroom fixture with 2 or 3 bulb spots it makes the place feel so much brighter
3. outdoor lighting! not only design wise but for safety at night is super important
no wallpaper in bathrooms with showers, the humidity increases chance of mold, maybe a lighter yellow could complement the green nicely?
i can’t wait to see what you do with the place i think more frequent check ins can be fun and then at the end do a bigger video showing it all together. plus with frequent check ins you get more ideas from the audience
You dont actually need plastic backing for a shower curtain, you just need a washable fabric that you can pop in the washer regularly with a cup of vinegar :) just get two shower curtains so you can switch them out while one is in the wash!
@MaggieVasqu I think you need to start your own interior channel.
I think you could do both!! I like smaller, more frequent updates, but you could definitely also film a full Before/After video because they do well on UA-cam
So excited to see what you’ll do with this space! Personally, I’d like a combination of vloggy check-ins of the stuff you’re noodling on AND milestone renovation spotlight videos.
Love the channel! ❤
I like seeing the process. I mean, sure, there’s something satisfying about the whole instant gratification of seeing a total transformation in twenty minutes, but you miss out on the reality of how many problems come up that need to be solved and such. Seeing the thought process in real time is much more educational and in the end, I think we all appreciate the whole adventure more. But in the end, it’s whatever works best for you which you’ll figure out as your go along. I love that headboard. It’s so practical and cool and interesting. I hope you find one 😃
I think it would be much more conducive to the process of decorating to film more of a day to day style. Then you can show off the new pieces you’ve acquired, because you’ll likely be skipping around the house rather than finishing each room one at a time, right? Loving this content! It’s so exciting ❤
@Paige - I would love more content on your decorating process, creating a mood board, online shopping/sourcing, and before/after reveals. I absolutely love your new space. Happy holidays and look forward to more content in 2023.
I like the idea of weekly updates. I think it would be a lot easier for you instead of doing it room by room. I would love to see how it evolves over time.
And take us shopping PLEASE
In regards to the line by the bar 4:13 , if you paint an accent color as a strip starting from where the counter starts on the left (looking from inside the kitchen 4:38 ), it can help break up the space and highlight the bar itself. It doesn’t have to be a bold color. Another muted neutral would work too. I you change the ceiling light fixture there, a darker color would capture direct lighting really well. You can also purposefully play with the projection of the paint lines if you don’t like it being one solid parallel strip.
Came to say the same thing. A pop of colour over the counter could make a cool feature in the room.
Same here! I think this arched nook would be fun to paint and try different things from time to time since it’s a small area. Would stripes be too crazy?? 😮
If painting becomes too tricky, I think if there's some possibility to put a waterfall plant of sorts or something above the bar in that corner to hide the line would work well.
YES I love the idea of playing into the existing architecture with a fun color (deep red?) and adding a little moodiness for your dining area. I think it would make it feel super intimate and lux
Paige, I pictured a Art Deco vanity in your bedroom, I’m so glad your considering that…
It’s really a charming home, I’m excited to see you make it your own
Paige have you heard of the channel "Never too small"? they post tours of small homes/sustainable designs and often interview the designers/architects. It might be a lil modern for your tastes but a lottt of the homes that they tour are beautifully done and include creative/unique built-in pieces.
I love the idea of more frequent little updates here and there, like most people already said. For the bar area I would paint the inside of the arch if that makes sense. For some reason I like the idea of red or chartreuse or something dark and bold. And then hang a piece of art on the wall right above the bar. I think a couple of wall shelves filled with books, pottery, etc. would look nice on the wall next to the bar.
more videos like vlog style! would love seeing your thought process during the designing of each space. more interesting and engaging imo
If you don't want to repaint the entire kitchen to match the living room, I'd recommend getting the paint color from the living room matched and painting that one little kitchen wall (and the under side of the "arch" above the bar, both visible at 04:36) with it. That way there isn't a line in the middle of a wall where the two paint colors meet
I would put a piece of curved copper hugging the curve of the bar to reflect light ✴️🕯️ hope you have fun in your new home ❤️
You need an portable AC and a space heater for the garage space if you don’t want heatstroke or be frozen;)
The black and white tiled countertop is so retro and mid century 😎 if it becomes a super colorful kitchen that would totally go with the countertop vibes
I would love to see the process, maybe like a weekly house update. Then maybe you can do a separate video focusing on the before and after of a space once it's "done". But the weekly one could just be bits and bobs you've bought for different spaces because few people decorate just one room at a time.
As fun as big before and afters are, in real life who the hell does that?! Little changes can still make big impacts and would love to see your process and problem solving when it comes design more than forcing content. Doesn't feel like you-we come for your interior design and stay for your no BS approach. Also, any link for the garage pendent light? Big thanks! Congrats your new place and fresh start.
lol snuck another "chartreuse" in there
but yeah you can go ahead and paint the bathroom if you want it dark and moody, but I think you can have the same effect if you have a small lamp replace any overhead lighting as the main source of light (if possible). i think it makes a small room look taller and when you're feeling extra moody you can add candles!!
I think there isn't a problem with the use of "masculine" and "feminine" as descriptive words because that's what they are. The masculine and the feminine coexist in all beings. It's all about balance, Paige.
I'm so excited to see this home series!!!! I'm getting lots of inspiration already :D Idk how precious the large red painting is to you, but I work in an art gallery and I just learned the other day that any thing that is adhesive might ruin an oil painting over time. I do love the mood board idea tho!
Youre right... There is masculin and feminin. There is dark and shinny... If it were all the same there wouldnt be two words. It doesnt mean that a man cant love shinny the same way you like dark and still are a woman. I too prefer non shinny😄
Both! I LOVE process videos, watching you actually work (though I k ow they are hard to film, or least I find the filming a constant distraction). But you can always just do a wide-angle time lapse. And then I also LOVE before and after reveals, even if I’ve watched the whole process along the way. I think you could edit some talking head stuff where you talk about the decisions you are making along the way, the insights, the ways you are changing your mind, etc, interspersed with time lapse of you actually working.
we should normalize rollout tv carts like they had during rainy days in school, bring it out for special events like a watch party and keep it stored somewhere else when not needed
I think you could paint the living room and the kitchen the same color, but paint The inside of the arch a fun contrasting color
Hi Paige, lynne here, on that brown fence outside, plant something like a vine being aware of light requirements and make it an espalier. Paint the fence dark grey/ black first.
Love how you communicate …… I Want To Want To Be In This Space ✌🏼☺️
I’ve never seen an L.A. place this old without a dedicated dining space, even in a one bedroom. Most of them at least have a breakfast nook, which was probably the case with your place. 🤔 I don’t think the bar area is original, especially since the cabinets don’t match anything else in the house and it opens the kitchen up to the living room.
Placing your sofa in the position you’re planning makes perfect sense, especially since you have a huge wall opposite the fireplace where your TV can go. This will also help you avoid putting the sofa against the wall. 👍🏾
Since you mentioned a wine rack.. you could put up a wall mounted wine rack that spans from the bottom the the arch to the counter top, it would hide the harsh paint transition line. My only concern would be making the space feel too crowded, but it you did a really low-profile simple rack it might work. There's some pretty wooden ones on Etsy. To be honest though, I don't think the paint line really looks bad.
Do you not want to wallpaper that one kitchen wall?. Are Rifle prints too cutesy? I have the Juniper Forest in black in my kitchen and love it. There are a lot of rental friendly wallpapers. All your plans sound great. Love the bar stools! Can’t wait to see what you do. ❤
Lean into the weird line and hang a piece of art on it, not essentially centered! I love the new space, cant wait to see what you do with it!
You have some great ideas. Can't wait to see it come together. I like organic vids that don't seem too staged..like whenever you feel like capturing something. Nothing over the top. What makes you cool is your rawness. Not a lot of fluff....IMO
I’d love more videos, both of the process and before and after. Also please come decorate my apartment in Hawaii, please and thank you bye.
Paige. Please stay your perfectly awkward/dry self. Its a breath of fresh air.
I don’t mean to say “stay the same, dont change” I’m sure you’ll get more and more comfortable and that will shoot through but hopefully never “whats up guys” energy, naaamean?
never! when I started UA-cam I swore I would never say “hey guys!!”, even though I think it has slipped out a few times lol
I enjoy more frequent little updates! You are the one UA-camr that I rewatch your videos in the background of my day to day happenings, I like hearing you talk I guess lol.
Please also include any design "mistakes" or things you buy/return because they don't work in the space...always interesting to learn from them!
Do both! Daily videos and before and afters! I am always looking forward to your content and I am also currently decorating a rental so I'm extra keen to see what you do with the place!
Counter height chair (not the bar height chair). I highly recommend ones that look like a chair, with back and seat cushion. Arms are optional, not as crucial. Foot step is a must, too, for high chair. I made the mistake of getting a counter chair that looks like an Asian stool. Couldn’t sit on it for an hour and my lower back hurt. The step is right under the seat, not conducive to get on and off.
So you know, I'm also planning on copying Kate's bedroom colour!
You've got nice ideas here. A little advice from an L.A. native (I have lived in Silverlake, Los Feliz, Koreatown, Venice, W. Hollywood, Pasadena, Long Beach, Marina del Rey and now I have a 1/2 acre in Winnetka - I'm 61)..... get a car cover. You have lived here before so you know how harsh the sun is in the summer, it will destroy your paint job. My garage is my art studio so my car stays covered. You're welcome!
I'd definitely do wallpaper in the curve of the bar to distinguish it as its own area. I'm pretty wallpaper obsessed though and would do it in your bathroom too - I saw another commenter say to avoid it in areas with high humidity but you can lightly brush or spray a sheer matte poly/varnish (like for hardwood floors) over it which will both protect it and make it really easy to wipe down to clean.
I'm getting a vibe from your place as if it could be a reinterpretation of a 1050's LA apartment ala 1950 Humphrey Bogart in the film 'In a Lonely Place'. Art, plants, pillows and drape fabric will bring it alive. Loving the furniture placement in the living room. Also seeing the view to the kitchen area from the living room as an updated "Casa Blanca" re interpretation as well. Plants, brass and low lighting from your cool wooden lamp. Rattan small lamp shades for your sconces could also use a think.
Your place is so cute! I love a cute LA bungalow. I would love to see some chunky, structural art deco pieces and maybe some 70s-era pieces for interesting textural balance mixed in with the modern and mid-century looks you mentioned. I recommend checking out some interior design books on the history of LA architecture/ interior design from the library for inspiration! (Plus the downtown LA library is so gorgeous and always worth a visit!) Can't wait for more videos! I especially love ones where we get to hear your reasons--both aesthetic and functional-- for picking particular pieces. That's always the most interesting to me!
House flooded and had to take down all the walls, ceilings, and floors. Look forward to redesigning my space with you Paige. Of course after the holidays. Got all my red and green decor up.
Not sure if you've already changed the doorknobs by now haha but I would really see some black and white "strippy" round doorknobs working well on there. Kind of "masculine" but fun at the same time? Idk 😊
Ok controversial opinion but honestly don't hate the paint line to the kitchen - its an interesting point of tension that you could play with (artwork, decor, etc)
Paige, I feel like the arch over the bar needs to match the living room. So, the wall in the kitchen shared by the living room wall/archway should just match the living room paint color. Then, if you're doing a bold paint color in the kitchen, get some kind of artwork for that wall in the kitchen to match/compliment the paint color you choose! Juat a thought, not an expert, def sending you pics/video of my living room soon 😫
If you don't want to say "masculine" decor (which I actually think is perfectly fine as long as you don't say "male/female"), you may use "moody"?
Congrats🎉 I recommend preparing for some weather… I tried to make our garage in San Diego another office. The computers overheated in September’s heat wave. And I use a space heater during Jan./ Feb.
I hope this helps!
I would hang a piece of art over the paint line between the kitchen and living room. Or put a tall plant over it.
Instead of “masculine vs feminine”, you could use “soft vs sharp” or “restrained vs bubbly”.
I think the white look great in the bathroom! You can add color by adding arts and colorful towels and rug etc
I think they're calling your style "organic modern" or maybe "modern chic". I love the idea of a wine rack over the bar area, but not a solid block. They make some cool ones that look sort of like they should be expandable? But they're not. And I *love* that couch! Is that the one you're getting? What is it?
Post more videos as your time allows. Like your ideas & I am sure anything you decide will turn out great
If the Facebook marketplace purchase doesn’t work out cb2 has a really similar bed frame! Called “Andes”
Go mid-century modern in the bathroom with a rich, medium toned pink for the walls and a green shower curtain like in your inspo picture. Add artwork to bring the colors together in either dark tones or light-- Love the old early 1900's sink and faucets!
Play up the paint line! I’d find or paint a piece on canvas that is dual-toned, split down the middle. Something simple and contemporary with a simple subject, like your chairs. Idk I like when weird things happen and I end up rolling with it.
These videos are fun, I think both process videos and before & after would be cool....sidenote, your sweater is so nice! Mind me asking where it's from?
What is the gold/chartreuse paint color you mentioned from Kate's? GORGE!
YOUR NEXT REVIEW :: JCrew Home Collection. PLEASE!
I live in a place with a small living room. Prepared for push back, but fully disagree with the entertainment center. The massing will make the room feel smaller. Perhaps do a breakfront or side board so you have storage and your walls are freed up. From there, you’ll have the option for floating shelves, art, etc.
Such a lovely place!!! I would definetly get rid of that beige line on the cielling ❤ Love from Buenos Aires 🇦🇷
One suggestion for the weird paint line over the countertop would be to get a large art piece that ties in colors from the living room and kitchen. If you center it over the island so that it overlaps the paint line slightly it may help visually bridge the two spaces/distract from the mismatched paint.
GOD! Decorating is *fun!* 😁😁😁😁
We could do both. During the process, and a before and after. Not all viewers want the same things, while some (like me) will consume all of the things.
Hope you do both! I love a good before and after. Sounds like you have a lot of good ideas. I can't wait to see the outcome.
I like following along with the decorating process as it is happening.
I prefer 15 minute videos.
And I also like a before and after type thing as well.
This is a great opportunity to see how u balance the old with the new / different styles. I'm excited to see what you do!!
It’s good to diversify your decor style, maybe choose more color with one of your big furniture pieces
I would love to see some content of you online shopping, especially for the smaller details like the hardware in the kitchen! I need to replace the knobs on my mid century dresser and nightstand and I've been struggling to find anything I like, I'd be curious if you have any suggestions of places to look besides etsy?
Have you considered how dark the shower might be with a floor to ceiling shower curtain? Originally loved the idea but I recently stayed in an Airbnb that had their shower curtain mounted very high and I couldn’t see much.
post whatever you're enjoying filming! I enjoy seeing what you're working on.
The bedroom reminds me of the call me by your name decor… maybe consider hanging up some cool European mid century/ vintage posters?
I used curtains for my shower and do not regret it. With the style of my bathroom I used two like actual curtains. Loved it
Maybe accentuate the ‘strange paint line’ by painting the wall above the bar in a different colour than the rest of the bar? I think these architectural strangenesses deserve to be underlined rather than hidden. They’re so charming!
What's the brand of the pendant light? Doesn't look like the regular paper ones. Help.
It be fun to watch shopping for your new furniture videos. I also like videos like this one.
I rarely ever comment on videos but a muted/desaturated rust tone would look amazing in the bathroom! I feel like it could look cool with the teal accent tiles
Happy House Warming. A thought about the area above the bar where a line defines the ceiling would be to paint it an accent color.
I vote more frequent small updates and then a big reveal/summary video at the end!!
I think it would be cool to paint the arch above the bar a fun pop of color, and leave the wall white. So you may have to paint the beige wall white to match the rest of the living room. The fun color from the arch ceiling would extend down to the counter.
i think one thing that could make your garage have a more “inside” feeling would be hanging a (sheer?) ceiling curtain in front of the garage door 😊 it would add privacy, protect you from harsh light shining in, and you could open the garage door when it’s nice outside while still having privacy
And here I’m worried you’ll get hot in that office garage lol. Will you be able to get A/C in there?
Are you renting? If so how are you handling getting approval on painting, etc.
Ooh - to me the outside area is calling for a skinny German biergarten table & benches. Utilitarian to balance out the romantic nature of all the vines.
I think for the bar area / kitchen, you should lean into the paint line between the living room and the kitchen, use a dark or bold color underneath the arch, and bring it all the way over to the left wall of the kitchen!
Put an art piece over the weird paint line at the bar between the living room and the kitchen! Breaking the line with a visual pop would be super cool!
Ha, making fun of your Midwest roots already 😂😂
I'd like to see you show us the process of anything you do - even the shopping for your stuff! Lol
I’d love to see a seating area beside the garage door for indoor outdoor seating. Like a couple of comfy chairs and a glass coffee table
For the paint line, I think you should put a small vintage piece of art right in the center to make the line itself more distinct!
For that arch/paint line, why not make the arch a feature and paint it a completely different colour.
2:38 yooo I love this credenza, where is it from?
I would wallpaper the kitchen bar arch or put a piece of art over the paint line to distract and bridge the 2 rooms
I would hang from a screwed in rod a gathered or tied down patterned curtain over the corner where the paint line is. It'll hide the line and give you a reason to add printed pattern and a killer rod.
Matilda Goad and Beata Heuman have pretty cool knobs
Also, non-functional fireplace=wine storage.
