    I am shocked so few people have watched this video. What a treasure for those of us learning. Thank you, Dara and BUNNY WILLIAMS!

      Williams has been around in the biz since the 70’s really. Much of her clientele pay a lot of money and much of her portfolio is word of mouth. There have been books but no real Tv /homeward line at Walmart kind of thing. She is more of the real deal and therefore less known. You either know her work or you don’t. A bit exclusive.

    Bunny mentions that she may have gotten her start because she was a girl who had good manners. Good manners will indeed take you places, along with hard work. I really enjoyed this interview.

    Bunny Williams is a brilliant designer who is able to articulate her ideas so well that we can learn tons from her. I appreciate her simple, direct, thoughtful responses to your questions. She is a breath of fresh air.

    Bunny Williams is so delightful, truly a classic interview. Love antiques and it’s my desire for the younger generation to embrace and rescue one statement or elegant piece and incorporate it in their space . Love from sunny Florida ☀️

    I grew up in Northern Virginia, and Bunny Williams was the first interior designer I was ever aware of. And I love her name, Bunny, which kept me paying attention.

    Ms Williams have been watching lots of your work on UA-cam and being from Richmond VA could not understand why you and the New York designers who celebrate your work Pronounce room as rum. So glad that you shared your southern background being from Charlottesville VA now I understand the pronunciation.

  • @rosezingleman5007
    @rosezingleman5007 3 роки тому +7

    This is just great. Ms. Williams’s background in Charlottesville is an asset that cannot be underestimated. “I want people to be comfortable” is exactly right. That “if you changed out a chair the design won’t fall apart” again, is exactly right.

    Watching this for the third time. Bunny you are just so amazing, I adore how put things together. I love antiques but need some modern mixed in looking a bit like a museum in my house. My kids think Ikea is the only place to buy "furniture" hoping as they get older and develop a sense of style they will see that real wood is not to be feared. Dara I ordered your book S is for Style, arrived today,
    a little disappointed that I didn't get one with a jazzy cover but I guess you can't have everything.

    I thought the Greenbrier Resort had opened in the 1700’s. It’s been a very long time since I’ve been there, so I could remember incorrectly, or perhaps it’s a different Greenbrier.
    But what a wonderful interview anyway. I am enjoying all your interviews here.

    In love with herself.
    She’s not a talented deco-icon .
    She is a rich housewife who has worked quite a lot and had NO problem in stepping over others head.
    Her EGO trip is boring and there’s nothing special or original in her “old lady’s impassable houses” full of objects, little tables, little chairs, books nobody reads, etc.
