    Hi Garret, I enjoy your channel and admire your ability to explain design. You have a natural gift for teaching, and more importantly, you are one of those rare talents who so freely imparts your wisdom and expertise - there’s no bravado, no condescension. I appreciate your enthusiasm and dedication to your audience. Thank you so much.

  • @pumibel1720
    @pumibel1720 3 года назад +7

    It is great to hear more about color. My sister only uses neutrals and says she is terrified to add even one non-neutral color. I am just the opposite, lol. Sometimes I need to reign it in. It might not be a model home, but at least my house is never boring! I have a thing for orange/aqua themes, muted turquoise with terracotta, rust and teal, coral and mint, etc. And always green in the details!

    • @GarrettLeChic
      @GarrettLeChic  3 года назад

      My sister loves a rich Boho color scheme, teals and rust reds, its always so comfortable and warm! Compared to her home mine is simple!😂

  • @lisastiles1408

    This video is very helpful, Garrett. Thank you! Before now, I’ve never had the time and/or money to renovate a home. It is exciting and fun, but also a little scary. I appreciate your videos and the images you share when you’re describing design concepts.
    Have you ever thought about doing a video about when it’s appropriate to hire professional interior designers and decorators, what services and options they typically provide, how to work with them and get the most bang for your buck, and tips to ensure you don’t get ripped off?

  • @amyweaver7413
    @amyweaver7413 3 года назад +27

    Due to my art I utilize high contrast decorating. I also use gold and silver metals and brown toned wood. Really informative and succinct lesson on colour (hue,tint,tone &shade). And by the way - blue and white looks just as good on you as they do in your home. Love your content - I’m a huge fan. 👍❤️🇨🇦

    • @GarrettLeChic
      @GarrettLeChic  3 года назад +2

  • @libbyneves5457
    @libbyneves5457 2 года назад +6

    Awesome content, you are so specific. I think about developing color schemes that flatter the homeowner. Like “Color Me Beautiful” in 3D. I love warmer environments but have a Clear Winter complexion with Olive undertones. No designers are talking about the people who live in the space as elements of the design. For example, the contrasting colors in your home flatter your coloring. (I love that for you!). I have read Frank Lloyd Wright would influence how the residents should dress so they would look good in his environments. Ha ha, how about designing color schemes to make the people look good? Thank you, Garrett.

    Absolutely loving your channel. Thank you for explaining all these design rules without bashing anyone’s personal taste - so refreshing. I wanted a very calm house a few years back and everything is black, white and grey with a touch of glam (thankfully no glitter!) but I am def ready for some colour change and warmer tones and your videos have been so inspiring! I used to have royal blue years ago and still love that look too! ❤️

    • @GarrettLeChic

  • @tishratcliff9601
    @tishratcliff9601 3 года назад +15

    I use tons of color in my home. Anything large, walls, sofas, big tables, are in tints and tones of gray so I can go color bold with the smaller things like pillow covers, throws, and glass. I keep the colors seasonally cohesive, and change things around throughout the year. I love that you’re using the color wheel in this video, it’s such a wonderful tool for understanding color. As always, great video!

    @lauraw3338 Год назад +1

    Hello there, I wanted to give you some ideas that would help you get more subscribers. 1) make your focus more on middle America. The major American’s never leave the country. 2) talk about paint colors using their “LVR” and the difference between using warm vs. cool colors. Also naming the paint colors and brand would help others a lot. 3) talk about budget friendly accessories. Give suggestions for high and lower price pieces because it’s hard for some to visualize what you are saying. 4) furniture fabric design. What works together and what doesn’t. 5) window coverings and fabric. So many people want to understand the difference in fabric and what it can do to a room/space.
    These are just suggestions so please don’t be offended. You clearly know a lot about design and color so this may help you become more relatable. I wish you all the best on your future videos.

    My colours are green and gold (contrasted with black window sills and couch, and mostly white walls) and I just added ocre yellow and now I hear what you are saying here *pause for breath* and now I understand WHY my home is starting to make more sense! This colour scheme makes me feel like a hobbit and super cozy. Like I'm living in a hibiscus plant.

So probably his muted earth tones with a few splashes of muted color here and there for me.

    Love the vid! My minimalist home is neutral with layered textures (no surprise there) as we like our art to center stage. However, home came with modern, brushed nickel faucets and cabinetry hardware. Coffee table is marble-topped, gray/beige veining with black iron legs. Using black iron would be nice as a second metal but don't want Farmhouse vibe, anyway to avoid looking like a Brutalist Joanna Gaines LOL
