Welcome to the channel, I'm Garrett! I am formally educated with a degree in interior design. My husband and I are also real estate investors. Our videos cover many styles (not just my own), and everything from ultra luxury to the budget friendly design. We want you to have a good time watching our videos while learning a great deal of useful, and practical information.

As a broker in a luxury market I am recommending this channel to anyone looking to buy or sell in the near future. It can be hard to understand which changes are worth making to your home.. I love that Garrett is always talking about *long term investments* and *sustainability*. Not only do you want to decorate and renovate your space for you but you want to make sure the largest asset you own is appreciating not depreciating. Thanks again for keeping me sane and not letting me do the stupid tile countertop over my laminate lol I am holding out for the soapstone granite
Thanks so much Lenora! I appreciate your support. :)
Couldn’t agree more!
I love how respectful you are of everyone's tastes and preferences. And I appreciate how you don't necessarily go along with the trends but encourage people to think on what their own personal style is. This has helped me to differentiate between what I find attractive in a magazine vs. what I actually want for my own home long-term.
His advice resonates with that of a personalized design consultation.
I love that you don’t like something because it is hard to clean. THANK YOU!
Looking good is second to being clean

Go in, Prof. LeChic! We inherited my husband’s childhood home and I want to update without losing the character. I won’t lie, the kitchen is touchy. Hubby has happy childhood memories here and is reluctant to change anything beyond updated appliances. I love the charm, but the scroll-y wood window valence has got to GO. It’s giving me ”Spirit of 1976” and I am not here for that… A nice roman shade is just what we need. I showed examples to Hubby and he’s on board. You are out here saving mariages! LOL
THANK YOU!
You are so welcome! Glad to help. :)
Hi. I’m in the same position - except it’s my childhood home circa 1952. My memories are of the 70’s and 80’s and my parents didn’t change much after that. We’ve done the bathroom- it’s very natural materials zen but are about to start the kitchen. I am so lost!
It’s so helpful how you explain the theory for why things work and then give options at all price points not just to tear everything out
Thanks so much! Glad you are enjoying. :)
Agreed 👍
Would I ever like seeing a whole LeChic tutorial on lowering house maintenance without going minimal. Loved your advice on the kitchen exhaust fan.
Thanks so much!
Love this idea!
Maybe I'm dated....but I like the simple elegant of one style drawer & cabinet pulls. I enjoy looking at the accessories of a kitchen and find that busy backgrounds compete and the eye can't rest. But that's just my style and everyone's is different of course. Enjoyed the video very much, always great visual examples.
‘Think about cleaning it’ is the best decorating advice ever! Especially the hints at a salmonella nightmare on the drawer pulls, so true yet never thought of…
I enjoyed this video and I really appreciate that you were so kind about the dated items. You weren't critical or snotty. Thanks for such a refreshing attitude.

The 4 inch "backsplash" that matches the counter surface
Agreed!
New Hardware all stainless installed horizontal…I love it
Best hardware finish for my house, oil rubbed bronze. My house is Mexican Hacienda style, adobe brick exterior, in the middle of an avocado grove. Next kitchen redo, 1930’s Spanish. That kitchen has retro styled appliances. Galley style kitchen, brushed nickel is the choice.
I like you. I also like that you realize that some designs are high maintenance. I’m completely for low maintenance but not boring. My style is definitely traditional but with a boho twist….I know that probably doesn’t make sense!
But I’m doing it ….I think? 😂
Thanks so much Roylene! :)
That shade of blue is perfect on you!
Thanks!
I never "got" tiled countertops. You know the grout will get filthy and gross. Same with open shelving in kitchens. I have no desire to spend time endlessly cleaning dust and grease off of them. Totally agree with cutting down work and maintenance! This is what I've been aiming for as I gradually renovate my home. Your sensible advice has helped me greatly!😃
Thanks so much!
I love my tiled countertops. They were in the kitchen when we bought our Mediterranean/Spanish style home. While I'm not crazy about the color, I find they are easy to clean (no filthy grout in my kitchen), do not stain, and are great for moving a hot pot off the stove. I'm a cook & baker & they work perfectly for me, short of having professional stainless steel counters.
It’s not that I’m not learning from your very informative content, it’s just that I love your intros. You always make me laugh, or at least smile. Keep it up.
Thanks so much! I'm glad you are enjoying. :)
Hi Gareth you are always so stylish. Doreen all the way from Malta
I have been subscribed since the first video of yours I ever saw! I was hooked on your intelligence, your training and your humour. Your sweet pups are also a bonus!
Wow, thank you!
Another great video! I have a question, can you talk to the importance of a good first impression with your front door/patio. I know several people who have beautiful homes but you wouldn’t know it looking at their front door. Their paint is peeling, faded Siding, burnt out light, leaves piled up by the entryway. I know it’s not strictly an interior space but I think it’s important!
Great suggestion!
I second that!
@@flowersfrom7311 Thanks! Please take a moment to support our channel by subscribing if you haven't already done so. I appreciate it. :)
Absolutely important, especially when you are trying to sell a home. While the real estate agent is trying to open the front door for a showing, the potential buyer has time to look around and notice that peeling paint, the worn hardware on the door, the tired wreath, and the old fashioned house numbers. You really have to look at all the details of your entrance and make sure it is top notch.
Ikea has magnetic Roman blinds- no cords at all! I got some for my new kitchen- extremely practical and easy to open and to pull down (there are times of the day when the sun is too bright from one window or another).
I absolutely love your content, especially when you explain why you don't like things based off of function AND looks. I would love to see what you would would to to make an apartment look better without having to repaint after you move out
Awesome, thank you! I'm really glad you are enjoying the content. Please take a moment to support the channel by subscribing if you haven't already. I appreciate it. :)
Lol, I feel a little called-out about the all the same hardware on your cabinets. It looks like a picture of my kitchen. Garrett when we're you in my house, you didn't even say "hi!"🤣
It's not uncommon lol! Please take a moment to support the channel by subscribing. I appreciate it. Much more to come!
I like the look of no pulls/hardware. Like wrap around edge pulls
We remodeled our kitchen in 2018. I chose glass knobs for upper cabinets and brushed nickel pulls for drawers. My horoscope is a water sign and suggested reflective surfaces to honor that. May be silly idea, but I love them so much!

You had me at dirty suede handle….still laughing 😂
My husband bought an 1883 East Lake/Stickley style house that had been reduced to a 9-plex in the 70's. He slowly and lovingly brought it back. Since I joined him in the 90's we have continued the journey. We redid our (huge) kitchen (2nd time) in 2001. Used a composite with a quartz look because we didn't want a maintenance burden. It has green and rust features that complement the stone floor, which had been installed in the 80's and wasn't going anywhere. We gutted our third floor in 2007 and gave it a cabin feel with pine, but knowing how it yellows with time, we pickled it. All in all, we have always tried to stay reasonably true to the vintage of the house on the first two floors. That, more than design trends, has been our guide. Love your videos; I just subscribed.
Thank you for this interesting comment! Welcome to the channel. It’s great to have you as part of our very valued subscriber family! 😊😊😊
2014-18: all white with subway tile and/or faux brick. This is the kitchen in the house I live in that unfortunately I can't really change.
You have earned 1 subscribe from me Garrett. Your videos are always awesome. You have given me lots of knowledge about interior design that I didn’t know before. Keep up the good work Garrett.
Thanks! Welcome to our subscriber family.
Wow. That was the exact granite in my kitchen I have from like 12 years ago
I love how you point out cleaning maintenance… I feel like that is so overlooked! I picked my hood to have no slanted sides for that exact reason but the slanted side is so trendy it’s almost the only option unless you specifically ask for something else like I did.
Thanks so much Ashley! Glad you enjoyed. :)
The tile counter too never made it here in Canada. I only ever see it in those reno shows.
We just had plain old laminate! Lol
I can't wait to see what you and your husband do with your kitchen. I love the little coffee bar moment that is currently there. I subscribed to your channel when you first started. I've seen the stairway reno, the ceiling reno, the dining room reno, the flooring, and the new office. What you have done so far is inspiring and I love that you do a lot of the hard work yourselves! ❤❤
Thanks so much!
Same!
Cheers, Garrett, on another GREAT video. I love how you talk about functionality -- like CLEANING in a kitchen. You can't clean leather handles or the grout in a tile counter! You asked about cabinet hardware. Because I have arthritis, I picked easy to grab, easy on the hands, and very easy to clean brushed nickel handles. And here's my dated kitchen don't: those cutesy fabric curtains and valances! Would love to hear your ideas on picking practical and beautiful window treatments for the different rooms in our spaces. 🌻🤗🌻
Thanks so much! :)
My house was built in ‘57 and I’m pretty sure the cabinets and hardware are original. The hardware is like a hammered brass with an arrow shape on the end and were attached to the cabinets on a diagonal. While I can’t stand the diagonal application of the handles, I’ve learned to live with it because switching out handles and making them vertical would mean filling holes and probably refinishing, I don’t have the time to do it. So now I tell myself, “ it’s authentic MCM and adds character”. My kitchen and I get along much better now that I just accept it’s quirkiness 😆.
Happy to join your ‘channel family’ !
Awesome! Thank you! Welcome to the channel. It’s great to have you as part of our very valued subscriber family.😊😊😊
All of your comments about cleanliness, in this video and others, are spot on! Or spotless, rather. :)
I would LOVE to see a video on outdoor spaces and get your input.
Yay! I mixed my knobs and pulls! I added antique brass knurled knobs up top while still using my more gold pulls on the bottom. I also mixed my upper cabinets with dark brown doors with a white base! Looks amazing. Good point with the leather handles. I decided to go with the blue star tile, kind of like the one you showed at toward the end but in blue, and I love it. I was hesitant, but I thought I need to be sure of what my taste is and not always go with bland or settle for neutrals. It may be heading out, but I love it!
I love the tiles he showed, but I can see why he recommended if you’re currently renovating, it might be worth thinking long and hard about the tiles.
Just stumbled across you...instant, new subscriber. I must say, as an OR/PACU nurse, the leather pulls in kitchens immediately had me wondering about people's sanity and taste: how the heck would you clean that??? Disgusting trend. Having said that, after the two years we've just had, people really shouldn't surprise me any more. Anyhoo, fantastic channel; I'll definitely be around.
Welcome to the channel Lindy! It's great to have you as part of our very valued subscriber
family. New video today at 10am PST:)
Excellent tips, Garrett. In my opinion, and I have seen a lot of trends come and go as I am 73 yrs. old, permanent items (as tile or countertops) should not be patterned or bright colors. The "envelope" of a room should always be neutral. Put the colors and patterns in your accessories that are easy to change. Learned this the hard way using patterned wallpaper. When those highly patterned tiles came along, I knew immediately they would be dated in no time. Thanks for sharing all your knowledge. Am doing a kitchen upgrade soon and needed to hear this.

You won me with less dusting!
Yay! Thanks for watching. Please take a moment to support the channel if you haven't already, and join our very valued subscriber family. :)
I have the vent hood that you can see the wall on the sides 😳. But I do have to say that I love it for me cuz I LOVE my backsplash that goes to ceiling and it allows more of that to show …
but I DO have to dust it and this video reminded me to give it a good wipe so thank you 🥰
The granite you spoke about was from the mid 90’s I had it installed in my home and at the time it was really cool but then it was everywhere and for a long time. Now I live in a different house and learned my lesson about spending money on trends. I only spend “ big” money on timeless materials. Things that you can’t time stamp.
Congratulations. By saying that you want to reduce the cleaning, you got a subscription out of me. I have chronic pain, and I'd rather spend my time cooking than cleaning.
Awesome! Welcome to the channel Alexandra! It’s great to have you as part of our very valued subscriber family.

Garret, I just found you a couple of days ago, I love your recommendations, you have inspired me in certain areas, and you have given me great ideas on a house that is stumping me in certain areas. I am in the process of buying a home that I close on tomorrow, a home that is dated inside and out. I bought it because I love the high end area, the large private yard is beautiful, the large windows are amazing, it is 3,304 sq feet, it has a new roof, furnace, hot water heater, the problems I am searching to remedy is a large red brick wood burning fireplace that matches the exterior of the home I feel is dated, and how to work with that color inside the home, an addition built on the home as a family room has wood paneling, I hate! wood paneling, the paint colors through the whole home are horrible, that will be an easy fix, I have a painter hired to paint the home all the way through white be, with no under tones, the flooring in that family room is ugly cheap linolium, it makes me cringe. There is white carpet through a large part of the main level that is ok, but, I will be removing to reveal the dark hardwood underneath that I will have refinished. This will all be done before I move in. Thank You

Mr. LeChic, can you pretty please do a video on "piffle" stuff like closet doorknobs, shelp stuff (like where to put the mail!), and other hidden detail type stuff??🧐 Thanks!
The trend that suuuper dates a kitchen for me is the TUSCAN KITCHEN 😆 Was such a big trend at the time and now when I see it I know *exactly* how long ago the space was renovated 😅 And honestly, we all know this kitchen is not in Tuscany, who are you trying to fool?? 👀😆
I have a really awful kitchen that has to be replaced next year but in the meantime I put black small tiles on the counter so had a really good laugh and you would too if you could see my workmanship. Love your channel
Well I’m very excited for you getting a new kitchen! 🤗🤗🤗
Wow! You speak the truth here. 💯 I'm a house cleaner and currently planning a remodel. I want to have the least amount of nooks and crannies to clean. Thanks for all the tips.
Also Garrett, to add to your list... bulkheads, especially the ones with the lights in them! Obviously they sometimes are necessary for ductwork, etc. but most are just clunky, stealing potential cabinet space, and make ceilings feel lower!
I remember when my grandmother put in her tile countertops. She was ecstatic, and they made sense for her house and lifestyle. I imagine they were one of the first things to be replaced when the house came under new ownership.
More than a dozen years ago, I had a gray Corian countertop installed. It has subtle flecks of lighter gray. It looks as good today as it did then. Too, it can be buffed if it were to get a scratch. My bathroom Formica countertop has bit the dust, so I will have a Corian type counter to replace it.
Thanks for sharing Trixie! Please take a moment to support the channel by subscribing. I appreciate it. :)
@@GarrettLeChic Will do. The edge is a type of ogee.
@@trixier6505 Thanks! It sounds like a very nice as well as functional situation. 😁😁
I love your enthusiasm for design.
I love you!!! You just addressed my current decorating dilemma which is cabinet hardware for a newly installed kitchen. I want to mix-and-match handles and knobs. Yay for you for giving me the nod of approval on that plan. Love you Garrett thank you!
Also I want you to know that we are a bulldog household. I do bulldog rescue and I’ve had 30 bulldogs in my house over decades, and of those 8 were our own pets. We’ve also had 8 Frenchies. With one exception, the Frenchies were bossy little brats, but of course they were cute as anything. They weren’t very smart, the English bulldogs seem smarter to me anyway. But we love bulldogs!
Frenchies are imps, but our Linus is quite smart and very loving. Our English Bulldog Cornealius is amazing. My husband has had several since he was a child, and they are perhaps the most wonderful, and easygoing breed I have meet. Such characters. Our little Albert is a Pek-A-Pom. He's about 17, and we rescued him 3 years ago. All the boys get along very well, and are a joy to have as part of the family.
Hi, Garrett! I'm a new subscriber! I'm in the middle of a long awaited kitchen renovation. My home is 60 years old, and the kitchen cabinets and sink were prolly 50 years old. I bought the home about 20 years ago, and newly retired. Ready to make my place the beautiful home I'll enjoy being in. I'm glad I found your channel. Your information has been very helpful!
Yay! Congrats on the renovation. Welcome to the channel. It’s great to have you as part of our very valued subscriber family. 😊😊😊
Hi Gareth! In our country cottage we have mixed cabinet pulls: some plain and some custom made for us of glass shards in our color palette -- so cool! So score one for the home team. But one demerit for having a wooden valence over the window. It is completely straight-cut, and this IS a cottage for heaven's sakes -- but still, you make we want to trade it out for Roman blinds.
So much WISDOM! In the middle of a kitchen renovation right now so glad I found you! My biggest thing that dates a kitchen (and that I am in the process of demolishing) is backsplashes that have those horrible metallic MEDALLIONS usually bronze in tone scattered in strategic places. They are like a needle in my eye. Our currant house was built in 2006 during the latter part of the whole “Tuscan” thing and we’ve been hacking away for four years trying to rid ourselves of it all. There are so many transitional style houses built in that era and I can spot one the minute I walk through the door. All of those need to go as it was not a good look in my opinion in the first place all of that dark bronze metal everywhere, light fixtures curtain rods ugh! So I guess that’s more than one thing but they all seem to flock together in the mid 2000 houses.

i love the way you critique with a soft glove , always have loads of ideas to improve too 😍for me our tile is definitely dating our kitchen , its such a big job to change , I chose them and loved them when it was done but now ... they look bleurgh
Hi, Garrett. I just subscribed! Love, love, love the baby doggies.I also love that you explain why certain things have to stay where they are.
Thanks so much Cynthia! Welcome to the channel. It's great to have you as part of our very valued subscriber family. :)
OMG! Garrett, you have come thru again. I am building a guest house and just started the kitchen design. I would have made so many mistakes if I had not seen this now. No bullnose! No granite golds and blacks. Hood over the stove, I 100% agree with you on that. Thank you so much. Love your advise.
Yay! Glad you enjoyed. 😊😊😊
My builder looked at me as if I was crazy when I asked him about cabinet pulls. He doesn't put any in his houses. He puts a bevel on the edges. But of course I put pulls on as soon as I moved in. I had never heard of leather pulls. Goodness. I have butcher block countertops and love them. Not for everyone but I live in the country and it fits the rustic (I like to think chic) vibe of the house. And I have hand painted Mexican tiles behind the stove (just there). The tiles are all different and I enjoy looking at them when I cook. Everyone says they like the kitchen so I guess I did ok. Your channel is the only one I've stuck with although I peek at others on occasion. Don't change!
Thanks so much! I’m so happy you are enjoying our content. 😊😊
Hi. My partner and I are loving your videos. We are trying to buy a condo and it will need a LOT of TLC if (and hopefully, when) we get it. Thank you for so much valuable information. We will keep watching and looking for ideas.
Sounds great!
You are the best and you know it ! With your expensive and elevated taste in things, yet you speak sensibly on the what to splurge and how to save … much appreciated 🤨😉
Thanks Betty! I appreciate your compliments very much. 😊😊🐶🐶🐶
Please have an ugly kitchen contest. I think I would win. I’m really enjoying your videos of what NOT to do moving forward.
👍👍👍
Hi, Garrett. So glad to hear your advice for kitchen hardware. I just bought new knobs for my drawers and pulls for the cupboards that currently don’t have any hardware. All are black, and I was doubting myself for mix-matching. I know most people would recommend knobs for cupboards, but I have a few tiny drawers and the large 5” pulls I like would look silly on them. I feel that going against the norm to better match the scale in my kitchen was a better choice, but I have felt insecure about it. Once again, your advice puts me at ease that I’m on the right track. Thank you thank you thank you!!
You are so welcome Alison!
Love it! My home is 1958, some changes made in 80s so I appreciate the latest info.

I've lived in my house for 40 years and if I can DIY any changes I do them myself. I doubt if I'll be doing any major changes in the future, but I really enjoy your channel. And, I have picked up some small changes from you. It took me 20 years to come up with a pattern I liked for the sidelight I made for my entry. It is about texture and simple lines, no color. Thank you.
My pleasure! Thanks for sharing.😊😊😊
😂 you are so adorable and so hilarious !!!😘
🤗🤗🤗
I actually kind of like the look of pine kitchens, it looks cozy and cabin-like, like you said (for some that's a positive, but depends on the style of the rest of the house). Not sure if it would be my preference if were to design a kitchen, but not the worst either. Also I wouldn't purposefully try to hide the refrigerator, I'd rather have the space be easy and intuitive to use.
As always, very good content. Just renovated our kitchen and so glad to know that it is Le Chic approved - the mixed hardware, the discreet vent hood, the thick and modern countertop edges. I guess it's because I've been following you for quite some time now 😊.

Yep, the house we bought has brown speckled granite (it always looks dirty) and the house was built in 2006 - you nailed it! That's going to go. What about changing out the doors and cabinet fronts along with having someone paint the cabinets?
I like the way the vent hoods with the slanted walls look. But you're right that minimizing surfaces that attract dust when more favorable alternatives are available is a good rule. I think I'll go with your rule when I eventually take on that project.
Can't stop staring at that gorgeous green wedgewood plus tulips!!! Happy spring Garrett!
Thanks! You too!
The fabric on the shade at 12:05 is so gorgeous it made me gasp.

Thanks so much Nina!
Granite counters here, circa 2009. About the same time the builder was offering "aged" cabinet doors; darker glaze in recesses on an off-white paint. They were the most expensive option, thank goodness we couldn't afford it, because I did like them back then! Thankfully, I've grown up a bit now, and realized I can make my cabinets look aged for free, lol. Plus I watch Garrett's channel, while saving up on a kitchen reno.
Those glazes are so bad. They have never looked good, even back in the 90s. It's the worst possible "upgrade" a kitchen can get. You dodged a bullet!
Omg my OCD never thought about the leather pulls ugg gross. 🤢 I just thought they were not cruelty free so I always said no. I like your idea of different sizes to accommodate the size the cabinet or drawer. That was awesome. 🙂
Gutting a town home at the moment it’s taking forever with florida permitting however, thanks to this channel it’s saved me from many design mistakes. We ripped out the indoor atrium and now need help figuring out what to to with the space. Thinking reading nook as it’s only 2x4

The rag painted walls!!! So done with that. What I can’t believe is how many houses that we looked at that still had those walls … and not just an accent wall. I’m not sure why we thought that was such an amazing look.

My son is building a new kitchen for me and I chose round fancy blue knobs for the drawers and oiled bronze handles for cabinet doors. They match the faucet and the lower cabinets are blue and the uppers are white. The tiles on the backsplash are blue and white textured subway tiles. I'm very happy to hear you say use two different types of hardware. Thank you. All of these decisions have been stressful.

Hey Garrett, I totally agree with you on the leather pulls, I really enjoyed this video!
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed the video.
😊😊😊
Love this kitchen video!👍🏻
Okay I just moved into my first home and I wanted to mix n match my knobs and everyone I asked told me it was a no-no. I am going with my gut! Thank you!!!!!! So stoked!
The most important thing is what makes you happy with your home. :)
@@GarrettLeChic Thanks GLC!!! Love your content!
"At some point every trend becomes dated, but that doesn't mean that you necessarily have to get rid of them." I am quoting my favorite online designer here, GLC, haha! So my house was built in 2008 and has brown, speckled granite kitchen counters. I am going to have to follow your advice to work with it (since it's already here). It's in perfect condition and so practical, and my husband and I are retirees, so careful with out budget. Love your videos!
Thanks much Terry! I appreciate you.

Love your your videos and tips for designing . We are using two color cabinets . After seeing your videos , I am confident to use different quartz for our Island and countertops

I have brushed copper (plated?) knobs in my kitchen. They are 3D oval-shaped, like a football 🏈 with rounded ends. They’re very comfortable to use and replaced square knobs that weren’t as ergonomic. Thanks for all your content and for teaching us.
You are very welcome!
Thanks for bringing up the wood valance! I have the 70s scalloped wood and couldn’t decide whether to replace with something straight or just remove completely. Having the painters in next week and it and all the brown will be gone. I’m so excited.
