Thank you Homeworthy for showcasing black home curators and a fellow Jamaican at that! Please continue to showcase more POC house tours!
I completely agree with you, they should only show homes of POC.
@@joshr9417as a POC if someone has taste they have taste…… they dont have to be a poc. Stop it
@@edgar5814 You know I was just being sarcastic.
@@joshr9417 lets not be dense.. you know text doesn’t show if someone is sarcastic or not and anyway its annoying to read that, its tired.
@@edgar5814 Its tired for someone to suggest showing more POC homes just because they are POC. Now bounce.
He has a very specific style, but if you look at the composition and how he curated his home, it’s quite beautiful. It’s refreshing to see a different type of home and of course, a gentleman and person of color.
Absolutely!
@@patricebrown777 Good afternoon dear👋 , how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe
well, we dont know if he is a 'gentleman' but he is definitely polite.
Very exquisite, I love the ambition.🇯🇲
@@spicynomad😂😂😂🤦🏽♀️
Nothing like listening to an educated, well traveled and cultured man. His home is immaculate, intentional and beautiful.
The only thing lacking is he likes men.
His house is sterile, I must say.
The home itself could be such a cold and impersonal space if it was a different owner. He really is the soul of the home. So bright, hospitable, creative, inviting and sophisticated.
The way he looks in his house also adds to the beauty of the house.
Love that a Caribbean person was featured in Homeworthy, it's very inspirational. His home is minimal and interesting 👏👌👍
First of all, it took me a while to watch this home tour because I thought I wouldn’t enjoy the ultra modern styling. I was wrong, primarily because I thoroughly enjoy Matthew Harris’s personality. What a joy to listen to and watch describe and enjoy his home. So erudite! Please do showcase more Black homes. We are definitely unique and our homes deserve to be shown more often.
I love how he shows that even though his home is more minimalist and modern that he wants people to be comfortable and to have fun when they come over. I find it super interesting to see the juxtaposition from this colonial home vs the modern minimalism vs being owned by a Black artist. Fabulous.
Agree
He loves and enjoys his home. You can tell he built it for his own enjoyment. Nothing beats that! I love it for him.
Well said. Thank you.
Highly original! Very refreshing after so many cookie cutter designed homes on Homeworthy. Thoroughly enjoyed Mateo & his lovely home.
There's a varied mix of homes featured on this channel
Well varied homes yes, but most with same boring interior designs is my point. I watch on how not to decorate a home.
Seeing a fellow Jamaican makes me proud. You're very accomplished and knowledgeable. Also well travelled. 🇯🇲🇯🇲
What a classic gentleman!! Love his stylish and charming personality. His home is truly a work of art. And I appreciate how knowledgeable he is about each and every piece in his home! Such style and grace. Thank you for sharing your home, which is a stunning jewel box, with the rest of the world. ❤
Enjoyed his story. This home reflects him. Happy for all the success. Thanks for sharing 🤎
His accent is incredibly beautiful, his home is gorgeous
It’s delightful to see beautiful homes like this right here in Houston, and of a fellow Jamaican🇯🇲 as well, thanks for sharing!
Ok I’m not into modern design, but I am into him, his passion is infectious and his home is striking and fun and is a true reflection of him and his personality. Loved this home tour👏🏻♥️
Totally not my style but I love how he had so much thought into how he wanted to LIVE in his home. That is the point after all. I liked learning about his creative history.
Its my favorite home on this channel by a mile...I love his home so much, just wow... honestly I'm blown away.
Can we see him cook and host 😊 because he will throw down.
I’ve realised 16 minutes in that I have a WIDE and WILD range of interiors, art, fashion and PEOPLE that I am drawn to. I would never have thought that I could live on a house such as this, but I ABSOLUTELY could. The pieces he owns are stunning and it will always be about having the GUTS to adapt to one’s surroundings, for you to “wear the house” and not the other way around🎉
Good afternoon dear👋 , how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe
He did such a nice presentation of the home. He has some incredibly gorgeous pieces like the large jug in the kitchen and the chief’s chair from Botswana. I loved the serene bedrooms.
Good afternoon dear👋 , how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe
@@HeavensSmile_creepers enter the comment section. 😅
I CAN’T CONCENTRATE ON THE TOUR HE IS SO HANDSOME WOW 🤣🔥😄
😂❤
😂😂😂 You go gurl... Has that British Islesish accent, too 😂😂😂
What a fun tour! His vivacious personality is infectious - his home a masterpiece. Every piece in this home exudes the same vibe of its owner. Could listen and hang with this beautiful man 24/7. Thank you, Homeworthy. You never disappoint.
@@jenh9361 😂👊🏾
Ha ha! He said “when I was modeling in New York” I was like “Yep that tracks”.
I am floating through the tour right along with his accent...I am hearing the European English, I am hearing the Jamaican now and then and then sometimes he sounds a little Irish. I love it.
You're a Jamacian delight! Your home reflects your good taste, and I hope you manifest all you choose to have! 💞
I follow him on social and need (1) his skincare routine (2) travel itineracy (3) his work out routine if you see him on social media you'd understand.
Beautiful. I love his style. The powder room was such a nice shock of color. His mostly black closet speaks to my soul. 🇯🇲 🇯🇲 🇯🇲 Bravo!
Just watching the video ive already fallen off the stairs.
You walk by the hand rail going up and down.😬
What a stunning and delightful human being! I could listen to him talk me into splendid dreams all the day long. His style is simple, warm and modern. His home is absolutely breathtaking! I wish we were friends. ❤️
Home looks too precious to me although he says nothing is too precious…there’s nothing functional about dining chairs that are just good to look at….but hey ….happy for him…not my style…too modern for me. I don’t feel the intimacy or warmth that he described. We all have our own taste and I respect that. Love his personality ….still enjoyed watching this ….very different❤😊
I wish I could hear more about his fashion and jewellery background….sounds fascinating 😊 And that Jamaica food sounds yuuumy 😊❤
Not my style but beautiful 😊
Lol. A frameless banister. An accidental death waiting to happen. Are there no building codes in Texas? Lol Otherwise, his style is curated and very interesting. I love these videos. 😊
Yes…how can that possibly meet code? Don’t go up or down those hardwood stairs wearing socks! Surely if the building inspector sees this video….
@@michelepaccione8806there are hand rails
The kitchen is stunning! I love the counter tops & back splash. Panda marble is beautiful and a perfect fit for this home. I recently remodeled my kitchen and I wish I could afford my first choice for countertop (Cristallo Quartzite). I chose Taj Mahal and also did the backsplash. I feel so good in my new kitchen.
Gorgeous! The home , the gentleman, the style and accent. You can tell he really enjoys the home
Bravo, Matthew! I don't generally lean toward contemporary homes, but this one is inviting, beautiful and full of love.
Your passion for your home and your life is wonderful. 🙂
"its important to feel warm and welcoming right when you walk in" also "everyone is worried about falling off the stairs.." lol
My favorite quote.... Beauty in Simplicity.... says it all. 🥂
Beautiful!!! I love his home! I love the way and the passion he describes his space! 👏👏👏🖤
Very unusual - nice to see a different interpretation of the space
Good afternoon dear👋 , how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe
Charming guy, would love to see more from him.
Interesting, he reminds me of Malcom Gladwell. I wish the living room had a rug to ground the furniture and for window treatments for the large windows. Very nice kitchen
Yes the kitchen is great. Clean. You can add any color with accessories or small appliances.
A Moroccan rug would be gorgeous!
I love his taste and his absolute commitment to it. This is a man you exudes joy and confidence as it it defined in his beautiful home. Also, how beautiful is he? Let’s end with WOW!👏👏👏👏👏👏
Good afternoon dear👋 , how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe
So Handsome and so is your Home!
I’m sure there’s a way to make those stairs more safe.
safer
He is so charming. What Homeworthy keeps reminding us is that our home should reflect us and it should be a place that brings us joy. I like his space, it would be fun to spend time in.
❤❤❤❤ a beautiful designer who truly loves his serine style With a touch of class 👍🏾🇨🇦
😅 Interesting that he remarks disliking homes that look like galleries because that's immediately what I thought when I pressed ▶️
I appreciate all the thought he put into his home. Watching his home tour feels like I am back at MOMA. I love how aesthetic everything is, and he said not to be afraid to live in it. (Paraphrasing)
Not my style but carefully styled and filled with loved items. Nice to watch this and his energy about life and art.
Thoroughly fascinating home tour! Pure elegance.
I did not think I would like this home. But, I LOVEE it. Every piece is like an actual work of art. Gorgeous
Great tour!! Such an interesting storyteller!
It's not for me but it makes him happy and it shows in his face. It's modern museum style.
His home is an exquisite example of modern architecture and design. Not for everyone, but it is so well done. I’m surprised the staircase passed code 😉.
l normally don't comment much, but let's just say he is extremely good looking, beautifu skin and great body....ha ha , forget the house,, the man is a model in itself
I wonder why he chose Texas? It’s definitely completely opposite of New York. He strikes me as a NYC high rise type of guy(in a good way).
I absolutely love that he shares what/where he sourced items for his home....so transparent even up to the old g's not enjoying their spaces created...plus no shoes on in the house💚💚💚💚
Oscar Niemeyer a famous Brazilian architect. Good taste you have.
This house is not my style at all, which tends towards wallpaper, “stuff” and very English country. That said, I love it! It is so beautifully curated, so well thought out, every piece, every view of the home, is beautiful. I love that Homeworthy highlights so many different types of homes, it really lets me think about my own home and how I can push the envelope.
Obsessed with his home and intentionality with every detail. What a gem!❤
In regards to this "house tours" commercial advertising Why would we neeeeeeeeeeeed 2b the "first" I don't mine being 2nd
He hit it with the Shikeith. I've followed him since before Yale. The biggest statement is the view of Michael Anastasiadis light sculpture from outside the front of an otherwise generic suburban house. That he is studying Oscar Niemeyer for his Jamaican house is so interesting, I hope he does his own yt series on the progress of the project and add a Rio chaise to his collection. Given his eye for Brutalism, I recommend he looks at Villa Cava in Tulum, Mexico by Espacio18 Arquitectra. This man is so young, gifted, and Black, his creative oeuvre is just beginning. This episode wasn't just a treat, it was a gift. Thank you. One Q, who is the maker of the mobile light piece in the dining room?
Love this clean and modern home! The accent, black is so beautiful! Well done, I can't get enough!
I just love Homeworthy and I love watching how people put their house and decor today. I'm obsessed
I could listen to him talk all day! Great vid! Thanks for sharing!
Similar chairs like the Botswana chair could also be found in Ghana Arts and crafts markets. You could actually watch them make them.
Firstly, he is FINE! 😍. Secondly, I love how clean everything is. Not particularly my style, but overall this is classy, sophisticated, and artsy!
What a beautiful home with fabulous collections. The stone in the kitchen is gorgeous. Thank you so much for sharing.
Good afternoon dear👋 , how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe
Yeah ok, I see the beautiful home. This man though is soooo elegant, chic and beautiful! The home belongs to him and he belongs to this home. Thank you sir for allowing us inside. ❤
I absolutely loved this! His esthetic is so unique. I thought I wore a lor if black, but I do have at least 30% color in my wardrobe. His home is immaculate!!! I love the fun furniture pieces and that they are comfortable and intended to be used.
Like his minimalism. Clean, uncluttered and refreshing.
Beautiful home and I just loved how he impress on how everything in his home is liveable you can touch and relax enjoy his space and not be afraid as to some home are just show places can't touch etc.. and last I love black also it's an enpowwing color for me bold but soft in it's own way.. Thanks for the view of your home.
His bedroom, tub and kitchen are my favorite and the panda stone is gorgeous. The other rooms look like art installations.
Cooking escovitch fish, plantains, banana porridge, and sorrel in that kitchen....oooooh...somebody stop me! Gorgeous home sir!
Boi. I knew that you were Caribbean....deh accent was slipping through. Trini here 😂❤🇯🇲
I love Mr. Harry Mathew home because it’s sophisticated, clean linear design. Yes I love to wear black color clothes for all of the reasons Mr. Mathew says: “ black is sophisticated, simple, humble, strong and beautiful .” His bedroom design continues to reminds me of taking things away from my own. ( it’s minimalist and his’ shows that the bedroom inspired to just rest without distractions.) I love that. Thank home worthy for sharing his to us all.
Looks more Tribeca than Houston. 🙌🏽✨
I ❤ this! It's one of the reasons why I remain an avid Homeworthy supporter. Matthew has a very specific eye and is intentional and purposeful in his vision. I ❤ the modern touch and his explaining his vision of what could be from what is when he first bought the home. It's pleasantly refreshing. As a fellow Jamaican I also ❤ how he's woven Jamaican culture into the ambiance of the home. The art pieces are lovely, as is the pool he built and the grand windows that overlook it. I was a little surprised with no bannister or railing by the steps but I get the vision. The home is beautiful inside and out. Thank you for sharing this ❤
Homeworthy, you want us to pay for membership to watch videos? Naaaaa... I don't think so.
Beautiful, peaceful and very welcoming home, Matthew. Thank you for sharing this video.
Appreciate this new home feature, Homeworthy. 💖💖
I love his home. Fabulous effort!
I instantly knew he was Jamaican, I hear that beautiful accent blended with something else. ❤️ 🇯🇲 We're all resentful of that untouchable living room lol, I refuse to have unused rooms in my home as well. What a lovely man.
Beautiful and very stylish house!!!
Stunning home. The only thing that didn't sit right with me was the refrigerator, but otherwise, beautiful. I loved the primary suite, the kitchen Island and the chandelier in the foyer. Thank you.
While I am not a minimalist, the space is conceptually elegant! Love the Brutalist elements and the color BLACK also! So refreshing to view homeowners/designers that look like me!!! Thank you Homeworthy for making inclusion a reality...
I love what Mateo has done to this home...he definitely modernized it. My favorite things about his home are; the master suite, living room, kitchen and master bath...chefs kiss
I love the coherence of the design. It’s a perfect match for his tastes. I think that those tubular chairs in the living room are a young man’s game though!😂
The Panda Marble is beautiful
I read Think and Grow Rich over fifty years ago and I was so inspired. I love the the way you have decorated your home with pieces that you love.
Magnificent 🖤
Although this is not my personal style, I have to say this is an amazing home and the home owner clearly loves it! His enthusiasm and love for all the pieces he has bought over the years is heartwarming. I wish him many years of happiness in Texas.
As a Jamaican whose passion is also my creativity this episode is beyond inspiring! His “accidental” journey in fashion and interiors gives me hope as one who “accidentally” fell into both and finding my way. And how he employs all his creative interests. Thanks for this feature! Would love to visit his masterpiece in Jamaica 🇯🇲
Love love his home and design but his personality is just Awesome. Such talented gentleman!!!
Beautiful home. Very inspirational success story. Great job.
If it does not have a ‘brand name’..he is not buying it. He name-dropped EVERY single thing down to his shirt.
Ooh wee, this house is exquisite, along with this gentleman! Everything about this house is so unique!
It's quite delightful to watch, The furniture and style are well put together with such beautiful presentation. I Live it❤
He is clearly very talented. The biggest challenge with extreme minimalism is that every tiny little architectural detail and finish needs to be 100% because any imperfection stands out. I found while living in Texas that there are very few contractors and craftsmen capable of such attention to detail. I would love to see him give the house a future refresh to dial the minimalist aesthetic in even more, and on the exterior. Frameless doors, museum-finish walls and flush baseboards would really let his style and taste shine perfectly. I’d also paint the house black. It would look stunning, and as a bonus would REALLY piss off the neighbors 😂.
proud of you brother. show more caibbean talent. love from Grenada
The exterior of the home does not match the interior. I wish he would have painted that Texas brick, maybe do something to the roof. It’s very colonial and very Texas
Matthew ! I 'm sou in love with , your beautiful home , is sou charm cozy and elegant . I love everything about your home . for you decor style , and the furniture one the kind , is sou gorgeous, and your kitchen is a piece of the art .Thank you very much Matthew to share you stunning beautiful home, God bless you and your home .

The house is beautiful! I love his passion for art and design. My favorite is the office. So simple and sweet.
Thought I recognized him from the thumbnail-jewelry designer!!
