like the other commenter already said, they have already had bad experience with an interior designer for the office. also i feel that when you're designing your home you should take advantage of the freedom you have and design it exactly to your specification. personally if someone else designed for me i'd feel like i was living in someone elses home.
Convert the formal dining room into a entertainment/billiard room! Get a pool table, maybe a little bar area? Just a little suggestion. Love the new house!
I want it to be Taikas playroom but girrrrllll. If it was mine that is what I want!!! 😂 when the kid(s) are like 10 that would be so cool to have! Dang I want to play pool now lol
The thing with that is they couldn’t see him in there when they’re cooking or naturally in the living room. I think they might want to keep it in the living room so they can keep an eye on him while relaxing or doing chores in the kitchen.
@@Thatonehanna it makes sense. Temporarily, thay might be an option until they get everything in order. This little guy is so ACTIVE, no place is safe to leave him alone. Lol
*GEO:* _I've been letting him use the spoon for about...2-3 months now?_ *TAIKA:* _[shakes head and smile in agreeance]_ 6:29 He is beyond smart! Such a big boy eating with a spoon, very well I might add! I can't. 😭💙
I noticed that too 😄 he's learning about not making messes or at least clean up after himself. Geo should teach him "the clean-up" song: "Clean up, Clean up...everybody, everywhere...Clean up, Clean up....everybody do their share!" 😄 He would love it!
Formal dining room can be converted to Taika's playroom, where you can store all of his toys into shelves with bins. This way his toys won't be in the way when you have guests over or during family gatherings. Later on when he starts Kindergarden you can put a desk there and start a small library for him to be able to read and do his homework. When he grows up, you can convert the shelves into a reading nook or a trophy display room. :) I think Fawn is destroying the new house because she's bored? Maybe get some interactive toys and puzzles for her to do outside like a bubble machine that blows bacon flavored bubbles. For the screen doors, maybe install a magnetic screen door. I have one installed for my sliding door that opens to the backyard. They tore the screen door when they were puppies and the magnetic screen has helped keep out the bugs and it allows my two dogs to roam free outside w/o me needing to open the door for them. Just a thought. :)
6:29 When Taika starts nodding to what Geo is saying haha. How much can you actually understand, Taika? Lol. And since he continues to nodd every so often, it looks like they are having an actual conversation and he's actively listening haha 🤣
Yes Geo, you should make a couple of videos showing us your makeup, style inspiration, and skincare products you use, you’re always looking amazinggg!!! 💕✨
Maybe u should make the place by the formal living room to be taikas play area so if u have a party or just friends over the guests can hangiut there in the living room and have better access to outside when the backyard is finished
Put a pool table in that room, maybe a bar or convert it to a play room. Once the backyard is done, the dogs will probably kick it back there more. Maybe put a little ketchup in his egg or hotdog/sausage or onion and tomato.
Damn it's hard not to be jealous watching these vlogs cause I'm poor as hell. It is really neat to watch Taika grow tho, I'm jealous that he'll know so many languages.
I’m trying to teach myself Cantonese. It helps my husband knows Cantonese but he also knows mandarin and three other languages. My daughter who is three is gonna have a fun time as I also speak Spanish 😅
For the sitting room I'd just go with some living chairs by the window but angled so your backs aren't facing the wall. I'd also just put a couch with the back facing the first entrance but then have like a table behind it with some plants beside it so it still seems a bit open. Just some ideas. Can't wait for the finished look of the house!!
@Bart & Geo, for the "Formal dining" room, I think it would be a cool idea to get like a nice big bookshelf/ toy organizer shelf and make it the kids playroom with like a nice reading nook and family pictures all on the walls :) For the fireplace room, you can always make it a cute office place, the table facing the window looking outside with a nice big rug in the middle or something. Would be a nice room for the Christmas tree and other holidays!
For the formal living room you can get a backless couch with a tall side for a lounge type feel or you can use a backed couch with a shelving unit to hide the back and display photos or other things
For the formal living room, you dont necessarily have to get a sofa or couch. You can just get 2-4 accent chairs and set them up either by the fireplace (facing entry if you just get 2) or have them surround a lil coffee table if you get 4
Maybe the formal dining room could be like a game room with a pool table or some shelves with games, and toys for the kids when they come over, etc. Also, for the christmas tree/family room you could look into having a two-sided couch, like the seating wraps around so it doesn't look closed off
The formal dining room can be converted to: -Taika's designated play area -maybe a billiard table / game room so when you have guests over they have an alternative area to hang out in -Make it a Coat room, with a bench so that people have a place to story their belongings while they visit your home...plus its good extra storage space! There's so much you can do with your place!
The empty space for formal living would be a great kids space for toys now and later for a quiet study space for kids later on. As for the fire place area that would make a great space for 4 nice lounge chairs and a round coffee table. You both are doing great. It takes about 2-3 months to really get everything in its place and feel settled down. Best of luck
Just find it funny that Geo is talking about the dogs damaging bits of the house while it sounds like Taika is knocking down the whole thing in the background😂
Well, the fireplace room... I recommend make it as a mini library or a relax reading room? Like two small couch, a carpet in middle and bookcase? Because you can chill by the fire and read a book or something.
I just moved to a bigger house in January and girl all I can advice you with is to go from room to room. Don’t overwhelm yourself trying to finish the whole house at the same time. Just start with one room and when it’s done go on to the next room.
i think a formal dining room may be a good idea especially if your christmas tree is in the room over bc the formal dining room is for holidays and stuff it keeps it all compact
Ik you ain’t feeling the light switches but I high key love it lol, I only got two switches in my apartment the kitchen light and the bathroom light. Every where else we got lamps. And I just love going to big houses that all different types of lightings
In Australia a lot of houses have mesh metal fly screens instead of the plastic ones, and maybe you have to put metal panels/edges around your doors like baby proofing
For the formal dining room you can make it like a gaming room and put a pool table, foosball table, air hockey table, and or ping pong table or other games you think you’d like
for the formal living room, i think you should put a rug by the fireplace, a padded bench, a bunch of cushions and a coffee table there. Then, at the left corner of the room, you can place a nice chair there facing the fireplace!
I would put French doors on both sides of the openings and make it Taikas play room and easy to control the toys and he can have his own tv in there to watch his own kids movies and as he grows up he can change o a hangout game room . The French doors you can keep it open , for your open feel but also closed to control toys and noise but still see what the kids are doing tru the glass when the doors are closed
Taikas play room!!!! My cousin had the FD as the play room and it is awesome! Keeps the toys from taking over the whole house and gives them a place to play in sight but still having a functional living room :) also not entirely sure but LOVE real estate videos. I believe the 4th rocker switch is for a fan if you decide to put one in so likely its already wired and ready to go. (Chakits vegas real estate vids 👌👌)
If you guys are wanting to have parties and gatherings I would actually do a formal dining room just for additional table/seating. For the “formal living room” you could do chairs in the corners, a large rug and coffee table for a sitting area
S Mac they should introduce him to soccer, he doesn’t have the genes for any of those physically demanding sports. Not that soccer isn’t demanding but you don’t need strength for it
J P in fairness, being tall doesn’t make you instantly physically fit for those sports. However, I think Taika does have those genes and with parents like Bart and Geo who OWN a gym and people around him who own dojo’s and all that, I think he could train to be great.
For the fire place area, add two single grand chairs and a small round coffee table. more for like meet and greets, chilling when it's cold. and then it would create an open space without adding a sofa and the backclosing from the door entrance
oh and that other room This is Extra AF but as a kid i would love to have an indoor monkey bar set. so if yall can custom make one for taika that'd be dope.
The other switches in the living I believe are powered to certain outlets in the room. Like if you want to out up display lights or Xmas lights. You plug it into the certain outlets.
I recommend the one side being Taika's play, school (when he starts it) area. Then the other side, an entryway locker (I think better known as mudroom entryway) like area to put all your bags (for when you do different activities during the day), shoes (Chinese shoe entry room). A nice way to enclose those areas without shutting it completely off from the rest of the rooms is: glass panelled doors.
Taika should be LINUS from "Peanuts" (Charlie Brown) for Halloween, since he carries his blanket around just like the character 😂
Ororo D that would be so cunie💗
Geo, maybe you can get a interior designer to help you out. It could make everything go smoother and less stressful for you!
a collab with mr kate would be so cool
elif ylmz I agree! But I think Kate is going to be on maternity leave for a while.
I know , right?! Their closet is hugeee with some organizing things they could take advantage of all that dead space....
Ever since they got burned by the designer for their new office I doubt they ever want to hire one again.

Steve playing with Taika made my nighttttt. I can’t wait to see him start a family with Nikki 😢😌
I want to see Taika on Jk Party
“uncle steve” awww 🥰
Steve is such a _dad_ already 😄💚
Fo sho. Taika’s “NoOOoo” to everything would be cunie
Where is briggy
MrDustyGaming
Gtfo of here. She was confirmed dead several months ago.
Super Macho Nacho ok thank u for telling me was just wondering. I don’t watch this channel religiously
I'm glad Steve was the only one who knew to draw Taika away from the hot stove 😩
I think Casey was trying too
Convert the formal dining room into a entertainment/billiard room! Get a pool table, maybe a little bar area? Just a little suggestion. Love the new house!
I want it to be Taikas playroom but girrrrllll. If it was mine that is what I want!!! 😂 when the kid(s) are like 10 that would be so cool to have! Dang I want to play pool now lol
"Formal dining room" should be Taika's play room.
Once you fully settled, you'll know what the room can or will be.
MaParis Family Adventures That would be super cute.
That's what I was thinking too. It can be taikas play room.
i was thinking that too but once all the toys move they can use their coffee table (its called a coffee table right ?)
The thing with that is they couldn’t see him in there when they’re cooking or naturally in the living room. I think they might want to keep it in the living room so they can keep an eye on him while relaxing or doing chores in the kitchen.
@@Thatonehanna it makes sense.

Lol
*GEO:* _I've been letting him use the spoon for about...2-3 months now?_
*TAIKA:* _[shakes head and smile in agreeance]_
6:29 He is beyond smart! Such a big boy eating with a spoon, very well I might add! I can't. 😭💙
When he picked up the ones that fell on the table and put them back in the bowl 😭😭😭 what a clever boi ❤️❤️
I noticed that too 😄 he's learning about not making messes or at least clean up after himself. Geo should teach him "the clean-up" song: "Clean up, Clean up...everybody, everywhere...Clean up, Clean up....everybody do their share!" 😄 He would love it!
Lol I remember when Steve was like "What's your kid's name again?" nows he's taking the funny uncle role.
Lexi Duncan David, Steve & Joe are the funny uncles and I feel Casey is the responsible Uncle who Taika would go to for advice hahahhaa
"Uncle Steve"
My heart
You can make the formal dining room a little game area or a bar area (maybe a snack bar or something)
AWH "UNCLE STEVE" MADE ME TEAR UP A LITTLE, I LOVE HOW THEY'VE BECOME PART OF THE FAMILY, SO DOPE.
Party at Tiff and Case for the title but only 3 minute part of a 25 minute video 😂😂😂🤣
Must of been a boring party.😊
I guess it’s the most “out of the ordinary” part of the video that makes it different from other videos
or they probably dont want to vlog the whole time at a dinner party
@@Jam-jc8lz or maybe they enjoyed themselves and forgot to vlog. which is a rare thing t9o live in the moment nowa days
loool what if tiff and case wanted to vlog the party for their channel. makes sense for barth and geo to allow it and vlog the rest of their day
Formal dining room can be converted to Taika's playroom, where you can store all of his toys into shelves with bins.

When he grows up, you can convert the shelves into a reading nook or a trophy display room. :)
I think Fawn is destroying the new house because she's bored? Maybe get some interactive toys and puzzles for her to do outside like a bubble machine that blows bacon flavored bubbles. For the screen doors, maybe install a magnetic screen door. I have one installed for my sliding door that opens to the backyard. They tore the screen door when they were puppies and the magnetic screen has helped keep out the bugs and it allows my two dogs to roam free outside w/o me needing to open the door for them.

Taika is a lucky kid with a great support network. You guys have awesome friends and family.
6:29 When Taika starts nodding to what Geo is saying haha. How much can you actually understand, Taika? Lol. And since he continues to nodd every so often, it looks like they are having an actual conversation and he's actively listening haha 🤣
Yes Geo, you should make a couple of videos showing us your makeup, style inspiration, and skincare products you use, you’re always looking amazinggg!!! 💕✨
Maybe u should make the place by the formal living room to be taikas play area so if u have a party or just friends over the guests can hangiut there in the living room and have better access to outside when the backyard is finished
Share it all gurl ! Closet tour , makeup room tour EVERYTHING !
Get a backless futon type thing for the formal living room. It'll create comfortable seating without cutting off the room from the entryway.
switches that don't do anything correspond directly wall outlets and are for floor lamps that plug into wall socket to turn on and off
Plug some lamps in and test the switches, sometimes switches are attached to outlets for lamps and not over head lighting
Taika better be kicking it with Uncle Steve and Uncle David. He _will_ be a giant like them one day so...
Dogs already adding character to the house
Aaawwww!!!! Steve being a dad is something I look forward to now that I’ve seen him with your Taika
I’d love to see a closet/makeup/ jewelry video!!! Either together or separated. Even a organizing a closet tour!!
I CANT WAIT TO SEE HOW THE HOUSE COMES ALONG ONCE THEY START DECORATING ❣️❣️😭 THEY SHOULD DO A COLLAB WITH Mr.Kate!!!
For the entry room, put a table against the back of the sofa facing the fire place and you can put photos and stuff there
You should do a organization closet video. I loved the one you did at the old house
You guys are literally my favorites. Love you guys. Make it how you want geo
Put a pool table in that room, maybe a bar or convert it to a play room.
Once the backyard is done, the dogs will probably kick it back there more.
Maybe put a little ketchup in his egg or hotdog/sausage or onion and tomato.
I love honey bunches of oats too! Especially the vanilla bunches
i will pretty much watch y’all do anything, i love all aspects of your life so yes Geo, show us it all☺️
more Geo fashion hauls please ! I love Geo's fashion style
Damn it's hard not to be jealous watching these vlogs cause I'm poor as hell. It is really neat to watch Taika grow tho, I'm jealous that he'll know so many languages.
I feel that! But it's not too late for you to learn different languages too!
I’m trying to teach myself Cantonese. It helps my husband knows Cantonese but he also knows mandarin and three other languages. My daughter who is three is gonna have a fun time as I also speak Spanish 😅
They didn’t exactly start out wealthy either! Work hard, have a good mindset and anything can happen :)
Cant wait to see when the house is done renovating plus the pool.
You should still keep it as a formal dining room just so when you guys have family and friends over you have a space to sit and enjoy a nice dinner.
honestly obsessed with bart and geos vlogs and i don't ever usually watch full vlogs
I definitely want a video of your wardrobe and accessories!!!!
You should make a whole organization video/vlog with you organizing your closet and jewelry table
For the sitting room I'd just go with some living chairs by the window but angled so your backs aren't facing the wall. I'd also just put a couch with the back facing the first entrance but then have like a table behind it with some plants beside it so it still seems a bit open. Just some ideas. Can't wait for the finished look of the house!!
i love the way u, talk to Taika in Spanish , congrats
!! u have a beautiful baby
I can't wait to see the backyard all done. The video with the mockup looked so dope.
Yeah i would love videos about your fashion! its always so creative and afforable
@Bart & Geo, for the "Formal dining" room, I think it would be a cool idea to get like a nice big bookshelf/ toy organizer shelf and make it the kids playroom with like a nice reading nook and family pictures all on the walls :) For the fireplace room, you can always make it a cute office place, the table facing the window looking outside with a nice big rug in the middle or something. Would be a nice room for the Christmas tree and other holidays!
Yes ! I love seeing organizing videos 😊
You can turn the formal living room into like a reading room. A nice rug and w chairs. A nice little side table in between the tables with a lamp.
Taika always brightens my day :)
Maybe turn it into an office, a doggy sleeping room, a big playroom, or a learning room (like a place to draw and whatnot) 🤷🏻♀️
Ooh the doggy sleep room sounds cool
For the formal living room you can get a backless couch with a tall side for a lounge type feel or you can use a backed couch with a shelving unit to hide the back and display photos or other things
Taika’s blanket is gonna be his childhood comfy snuggle item. Mine is a pillow, and I still hug it to sleep every night >
For the formal living room, you dont necessarily have to get a sofa or couch. You can just get 2-4 accent chairs and set them up either by the fireplace (facing entry if you just get 2) or have them surround a lil coffee table if you get 4
best part of the day: when the beaws upload

There's so much you can do with your place!
A room for ideas 🥰 A chill out room, sitting by the fire 🤩
Yay a full day of Taika cuteness!!! 😆😆😆
He’s literally the prettiest baby ever. Perfect blend of both parents
the new house's architectural and open space looks absolutely exciting! interior designing hypes me up, so I hope you do it justice, Geo!
The empty space for formal living would be a great kids space for toys now and later for a quiet study space for kids later on.

Taika playroom or leave it as a formal dining room
Ik you ain’t feeling the light switches but I high key love it lol, I only got two switches in my apartment the kitchen light and the bathroom light. Every where else we got lamps. And I just love going to big houses that all different types of lightings
I think the formal dining room or living room could be your painting room or smth/ office ??
In Australia a lot of houses have mesh metal fly screens instead of the plastic ones, and maybe you have to put metal panels/edges around your doors like baby proofing
Omg Geo please do a organize my closet/wardrobe vlog pleeeease!
“you know how david always walks around like he’s lost” HAHA
Thanks for making my day with yalls vlogs!! Love you guys💗💗💗
Make it just a nice area with a table with flowers some family pictures maybe small chars ....
You should collab with other youtubers who are interior designer and see if they can help out
Diana Mr.Kate 😉
For the formal dining room you can make it like a gaming room and put a pool table, foosball table, air hockey table, and or ping pong table or other games you think you’d like
Taika's gonna be such a cool guy when he grows up. He's surrounded by such awesome people doing cool things.
for the formal living room, i think you should put a rug by the fireplace, a padded bench, a bunch of cushions and a coffee table there. Then, at the left corner of the room, you can place a nice chair there facing the fireplace!
Have you tried Chinese steamed egg? It's really soft, and smooth. The texture of eggs could be grossing him out.
You can fade paint with a sprayer bottle with thinner and feathering it with a dry brush
Yes do a closet tour!
Then the formal dining room into an office!! 😊
I would put French doors on both sides of the openings and make it Taikas play room and easy to control the toys and he can have his own tv in there to watch his own kids movies and as he grows up he can change o a hangout game room . The French doors you can keep it open , for your open feel but also closed to control toys and noise but still see what the kids are doing tru the glass when the doors are closed
I'm impressed. Great idea with the doors!

With the first pick of the 2036 NBA draft the Los Angeles Lakers select Taika Kwan from Joemalia university
@Bloodline probably football hes gonna be huge
J P i think he’d suit a fighter or American Football player more than Basketball
S Mac they should introduce him to soccer, he doesn’t have the genes for any of those physically demanding sports. Not that soccer isn’t demanding but you don’t need strength for it
Docraki Docraki he will most likely be at least 6 feet tho
J P in fairness, being tall doesn’t make you instantly physically fit for those sports. However, I think Taika does have those genes and with parents like Bart and Geo who OWN a gym and people around him who own dojo’s and all that, I think he could train to be great.
Taika so cute and smart. He makes a mess eating cereal then cleans it up. I don't even do that now in my pretend adulthood.
In the “Formal dining room” maybe you can have some stand alone tall tables as a more relaxed but formal area for friends, etc.
That area can be taika and baika play room. Put a mat, gate it, put toys in there etc 👍🏼
Some switches could be for outlets in the room. Like if you plug a lamp on and use the switch instead of the button on the lamp.
Organization closet video sounds cool as heck!
That room should be a sitting/reading room with some books and stuff. Such a beautiful home!
Maybe put some beanbags in that formal dining room space and just make it like a little hangout space
Using the formal dining as a playroom would be nice. Then you can see the kids from the kitchen and livingroom and still have a nice livingroom set up
I do my closet by color and style of clothes! So when it starts with the starts of the rainbow it a different style of clothing!
What about a little book corner or tea room for the fireplace room?
geo is such a great mom
For the fire place area, add two single grand chairs and a small round coffee table. more for like meet and greets, chilling when it's cold. and then it would create an open space without adding a sofa and the backclosing from the door entrance
