    Wow this interviewer was rude. I was mortified at his behavior and lack of decorum. Thank goodness for the grace of Alidad who’s home is beyond!

      Actually it was funny. His questions were surprising to Alidad. There are no stupid Qs there are stupid As. But Alidad handled all with humour and grace.

    Such a lovely man and such impeccable taste. An unusual decor which requires a firm knowledge of art and art history to pull off, but an inspiration to all of us.

    Ach, the dining room! That wall treatment, the atmosphere and intelligent use of light, both natural and artificial. Gorgeous. 😍

    That man was rude to him. If Alidad's home is depressing, maybe he can visit open concept mega-mansions; that are badly lit, with white & gray walls.

    Love his rendition of reds and flowers. Admire his knowledge of his particular taste and not intimidated by the questions posed by the interviewer who apparently has different tastes. 👏

    Don´t mean to be rude, but what a difference it makes when the decorator is actually educated and polite... compared to Ms. Hoppen´s, this was a true delight.

    Alidad's home is stunning! He may call it "masculine", but I love it. I dislike pink and frills which women supposedly prefer. If I had a home with separate rooms like this, I too would have rooms which are cozy and womb-like, and other's which are filled with light. I do find the interviewer frustrating, however. He keeps asking silly questions about what is the point of this or that. Does he not understand that the point is Beauty, that great, soothing healer? Beauty need not explain itself.

    Who is this interviewer? Rude & insensitive and maybe he thinks he's good interviewer. Anyway Persians have always been cultured and sophisticated and opulent in their designs. I love it. I want my house interiors like this.

    Your camera needs to step back a little so we actually see the rooms! All the footage is of the damn people, it’s annoying

    Wonderful. And I love the interviewer. He’s so excellent at asking the ordinary questions to which we all want to hear the answers. These little vignettes are master classes in composition and information.

    For some reason many brits give themselves permission to talk down to any culture or style that doesn’t go with what they traditionally know. It’s rude and disrespectful and quiet annoying so please stop it!
