Thank you for such an elegant video. Your editing, storyboard, even your presentation has gotten better as time has gone by. No more noisy, distracting clickity noises or swooshes. Very impressive and much appreciated. Thank you.
I love the two colour drenching! More than a single colour. Though that's no surprise as my preference is for monochromatic combinations, I just never thought of it as a drenching technique.
Looks like my grandparents' house with all the dark wood (built in the 1960s) is back in style! As for the pattern drenching, I've seen that done in TV shows and movies from the early 1990s. Keeping Up Appearances is the perfect example, because Hyacinth's wallpaper in the main bedroom matches her bedding perfectly.
Classic design is classic -it doesn’t age. This includes minimalist all the way to antiques. Quality counts more than trendy. You can always change paint and pillows for accent , but make sure you’re buying the best quality basics that will last forever.
I got ebony coloured herringbone flooring in my living room. Although when it comes to colours I much prefer light colours and pastel rather than dark colours, as I live in the uk where its cold and dark, so prefer my house to emphasise the brightness to compensate for our severe lack of sun for most of the year
Since July last year I've been slowly renovating my cookie cutter white ikea furniture with older natural wood furniture that I bought from whoever would sell, most of them cedar and carob wood since they go well together and were quite common in my area. To have those natural colors do make it much more cozy to me. My kitchen is still all white (sans the stone countertop) as it was when I bought the place, because no way in hell I'm gonna tear down functioning cabinetry, too much work and money required.
Desi sunt o persoana pragmatica, ma bucur ca ne intoarcem spre lucruri mai "calde", cu istorie si un pic mai romabtice. Imi place atât de mult cum explicati totul cu calm, cu o voce foarte placuta si oferind exemple in imagini, incât am fost surprinsa când ati ajubs la final, timpul a trecut asa de repede! Va multumesc!
I've never given much thought to current design trends. But I can see how it can be fun and inspiring! Pattern drenching sure looks tricky to pull off, though. haha
For as long as I can recall, I've had an assortment of expensive, high-quality, timeless dark wood pieces: oak, teak and mahogany. They're classy, long-lasting, don't rely on fads and look good. Along with 'classic' paint-off-black, deep green, deep blue-I believe I have a flat that looks nice. I find this kind of video particularly good, but out of curiosity and my choices aren't led by it.
Im glad Interior Designing is moving on from the tacky trends that will become outdated very quickly. Balance is everything. New trends every year is a little overtop but so is remaining at old interior styles forever. We need to find the right balance between evolving interior styles but not so often that they will become outdated too fast. Timeless is the perfect word. We need interiors that we will find beautiful even in 100 years.
Reynard!! When do you plan to drop that video where you give your thoughts on people's spaces? You did a community post saying that it would be out end of January. No rush, love your videos
As always a thoughtful and intelligent video. Boucle is uncomfortable and not for those with cats! My home is an eclectic mix of styles but it all gels happily
❤🎉We have been buying Ethan Allen cabinets circa 1970. In the same E A. line. Adding our own touch😮. Plus painting our entire house in the style/color you recommend. 😊Nutmeg, moody blue and green..
❤ Great food for thought. I am so happy that I have a Victorian burr walnut oval Loo table that I’m planning on using as the dining table in the small dining area of the open plan living area of my upcoming little downsized home. I’m thinking that some other pieces in a similar wood, combined with some lighter but still warm wood tones are going to make an interesting combination.
Walnut and mahogany have always been my favorite woods; I never liked the lighter woods even when they were everywhere. I think color drenching is beautiful but I wouldn't do it in my house; it just wouldn't fit the style.
I came across your channel tonight. I can appreciate what you have shared in this video, and honestly it is so much better than the ones you recommended before. You are more confident and on point, sharing various clips and pics, colors, styles etc. I however would really appreciate your finding more homes relevant to your viewing audience, that do not live in these mansions. Many of us cannot really see how to apply these techniques to our own homes, and not the elite NY, CA, and or mountainous homes of Colorado etc. How can we apply to say for example a small Chicago Apt, or condo, bungalow and or townhome? Thank you so much!! ❤
How many videos of his have you watched? He has a great deal of content for the everyday person. Honestly, the majority of his content is for everyone. Of course he is going to use inspiration photos from higher end spaces that are executed very well to demonstrate his point. I don’t really want to see an inspiration photo from my mom’s kitchen in middle America who didn’t have the budget to execute it correctly or completely. You have to take the concepts from his videos and apply them to your own home rather than having everything be a 1:1 model of what you’re looking for. Honestly, the best part of his videos are that they could apply to someone who is quite poor or someone who is quite wealthy. He does a great job of teaching the concepts. Keep digging through his content and watching more of it so you can get a better feel of the scope of his videos.
The gray is so hideous and always has been. And it's remarkable how many homes, apartment buildings, businesses have renovated using gray. Cabinets, flooring, backsplashes, rooms full of furniture...omg it's so ugly.
These trends are soo me. My personal style is cottagecore with mid to dark toned timber with lots of patterns, colours and texture. For once I’m trendy 😂
Pattern drenching? No, it went out with maximalism. A dominant pattern with 2-3 compliments is sufficient. More than 4 patterns becomes visually agitated and psychologically unbalanced.
House prices and cost of living is so high many people can't afford to renovate and are working with what they have if they have an older home. So designers are selling this as a" trend " to the people who can afford to renovate in order to drum up business.
@@jorgesmith2000 they are all considered wood beams, even if they are hollow or solid wood core. I have a hollow one that you could call a box beam, and it is there as a decorative feature, not as an structural support beam. The outer shell is real wood, and it is stained in a dark cherry wood tone.

You always have such a nice way of explaining things. Very calming voice.

I mixed darf wood with white wood when I moved into my appartement 18 years ago and I keep on liking it. 😊

Ohh it's coming! We've finished working on the spaces and script is halfway done now. Should be anytime this month :D
I thought Modern Farmhouse style was already out a lot of years ago! And rightfully so if i may add.
Amazing video as always 🙏🏽
Well presented! Love your channel!
As always a thoughtful and intelligent video. Boucle is uncomfortable and not for those with cats!

Awesome 👏🤍😀
Thanks, I enjoyed the video.
Who knew my indian landlord from the 90s had such style colour drenched my whole apartment

Where did you get that Mountain Artwork in the back?
Can.you make analysis about liminal space in home designs
Thank goodness for the end of boucle!
👍👏
is flutting timeless how do do it right?
I can’t say I’m a fan of many of the 2025 trends other than the romantic and vintage pieces.
The pattern drenching is overwhelming.
It’s too much for me too although I can appreciate it .
fix at 2:23
I don´t care what´s the actual trend - I create my space as I like it and not what others think is "trendy"
Designers want to eat too.
Why are you watching a design video then? I find the content informative and interesting.
@@JaneSmith-q5n Design is much more than trends. It is about creating a spaces that are efficient, functional, and aesthetically pleasing.
So don’t listen to Reynard, though he is a genius.
Then why are u watching this video?..just so u could come and comment this?...smh
Like the video but these colors....meh....feels like going back in 90-s
Pattern drenching is just English interior style.

I love these trends that are coming in :) I would love to colour or pattern drench, but I rent :'(
estate sales for vintage

A house is a home, it’s to live in and be comfortable in. Forget about trends, it’s your space, make it your own instead what somebody tells you.
Pattern drenching? No, it went out with maximalism. A dominant pattern with 2-3 compliments is sufficient. More than 4 patterns becomes visually agitated and psychologically unbalanced.
The trending colors are soooo 1975.
House prices and cost of living is so high many people can't afford to renovate and are working with what they have if they have an older home. So designers are selling this as a" trend " to the people who can afford to renovate in order to drum up business.
I'm glad we're finally moving away from minimalism.
Love your videos Reynard. I particularly love the print on the console behind you! Where is it from?
Hard NO to Pattern Drenching.
As someone who works in interior landscaping, I can't help but notice the fake plants in your background. ☹
😂
Is that a fake plant tree at the back?
Yes
Do box beams count as real wood beams in your book? Technically, it’s made out of real wood…it’s just hollow, a box.
yes, they are the same, in terms of design and aesthetics.
@@vaderladylokay then what would not be considered real wood beams? So confused. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a fake beam my area.
@@jorgesmith2000 they are all considered wood beams, even if they are hollow or solid wood core.
I have a hollow one that you could call a box beam, and it is there as a decorative feature, not as an structural support beam. The outer shell is real wood, and it is stained in a dark cherry wood tone.
Nothing interesting for me
Pattern drenching looks so disgusting 🤢
I just don’t like pattern drenching
Mid century 🤮
Dark wood is something from the past and it must remain there.
Dark wood and all woods , for that matter, are timeless.
You need to know how to use dark wood in your home. It’s gorgeous if done right.
