Is anyone else hoping this IKEA video happens? 💛
I was like ‘DO IT!!’ 😂
🤣🤣 my team and clients will probably all leave though… 😑
Hear, hear!
@@sophiepatersoninteriorsltd 😂😂😂😂
Yes please!
Agree on all EXCEPT glass top tables -- come on; use coasters. They're extremely versatile & make a small room look airy -- can you imagine a Paris apartment withOUT one?
Agreed!
I do agree. I have a glass topped coffee table and console table. I think they look fine.
I have a glass top table outside. Love how easy it is to clean.
Agree
And without the glass table top, how would one get those cute squidgy kitty paw views?!
My ex mother-in-law had a crushed velvet sofa. It was mustard colored and hideous, but she loved it 😂 said it was the most comfortable sofa she ever had. So sad for people who have to get rid of stuff they love just because someone says it was so last year.
@Cherish Dials - I agree with you so much on the comfort! I still kind of regret getting rid of the most comfy couch I ever owned, though the frame was never going to be quite right for where I wanted to go, design wise. Looking back, I wish I had custom designed the base and reupholstered it though. I would have made it works somewhere, somehow, if I had known that I just wasn't going to get that perfect fit and comfort again. It had some pretty lines, except for the base, And I didn't want a skirt at the bottom anymore.
@@bitrudder3792 - I feel lucky because in the country in Indiana where I’m from-if you don’t have a plaid couch you’re in the height of sophistication 😂😂😂 and yes. Comfort is more important than style to me. I’m sorry about your couch. That mustard velvet couch truly was hideous though.
@@in2wishin nobody said anything about Sophie. So why are you bringing her up? Glad you like your table.
You don’t have to get rid of anything you like. Comfortable is important too and if they’re happy about it so keep it. They’re probably not watching this video anyways. There’s no video for everybody. But personally I appreciate content like this. I want to find inspiration for styling my home and she’s def more experienced and skilled than I am. I’m grateful for the FREE advice. It’s YOUR choice to follow it or not. And if it’s not for you, just close it and move on to the next. It’s subjective anyways
@@yeeefaaan9627 - ok Karen. You want me to move on and not say anything but you said plenty about it. Grow tf up.
I’m not giving up my vintage 1970s glass top coffee table 😂 I love it! great in my tiny living room as it almost disappears. Also coasters fix the noise issue.
Haha I was laughing so hard...I'm picturing a room with a wall of fake plants, crushed velvet sofa, shag carpet, knot and sphere pillows, uncomfortable knock-off chairs and a synthetic velvet chair with a bum print...a designers worst nightmare! But seriously I agree with all of these!
I haven't got what I shouldn't - but I have just replaced a wood table with a glass top one. In a small all-in-one space, it makes a huge difference in making the room look larger, spacier.
I agree about the glass top since it becomes virtually invisible.
I disagree with her on glass top tables. I like them.
As a nurse and as someone getting older, I look at glass coffee tables a little more suspiciously, lol! It's easy to trip over what you don't see. But glass tables are awesome for creating that sense of space. Not so great for toddlers who seem to crack their heads on them regularly.😅
@@bitrudder3792 OMG my Mom got a glass top coffee table and a glass table for the kitchen a few years ago, and they were so uncomfortable. I expected my parents house to be the ultimate in comfort, but suddenly I was always terrified that I was going to put my feet up accidentally and smash them through the glass. Or place something heavy down on the kitchen table and shatter it. I missed their big sturdy furniture that used to be there when there were 7 of us living in the house lol
@@goodgrief888 - I can totally picture that, we were 7 also! Big round formica kitchen table with a generous turntable made serving a breeze, and only wooden or marble coffee tables (for the living room)! I miss those! The wooden one was a box that held out of season clothing/blankets and rolled on casters. The marble one would be so chic today, lol! But there's nothing like sturdy, purposeful furniture! And its so hard to feel "at home" with glass sometimes, even if it creates a nice look!
Sophie is always so calm and sophisticated it's funny to watch her get a little unhinged here. "What do I do with that, do I Hoover it, do I dust it??" Lol. Great video.
Came across your video this morning. Im sure you and your team are wonderful people, but these suggestions are exactly why I have been decluttering and minimizing my house over the last couple years.
People, keep what you love but use daily. Don’t get caught up in what’s in style. I’ve spent thousands of dollars trying to keep up with style and it didn’t make me any happier. Nothing wrong with change, just make sure you are changing because YOU have grown tired of it, not because the trend is telling you to do it.
Very considerate and practical advice. Though I still love my Barcelona coffee table designed by Mies van der Rohe despite its glass top. So I would say that if one does not choose a furniture or decor because it feels trendy, but because one genuinely loves it, you should embrace it.
I agree with all of your dislikes however not sure about glass tables albeit I agree with reasons you dislike them. .Oka do some lovely ones that I very much like.
I love how you’re talking about the cleaning part! Thank you! I’m allergic to dusty stuff so easy to clean is def a important factor for me. Easy to clean and timeless that’s the goal
@Yeeefaaan - I'm with Sophie on the cleaning part, too! My mom used to tell me that her decor choices stemmed partly from having to a lot of dusting of decorative ornaments at her home growing up - it was definitely NOT part of her life's plan to keep doing that! The older I get the MORE important this is to me.
Best video, for a change something NOT to do !!!!!!!!!!!!! Here in USA there are a ton like barn, doors, ship lap, people who just fallow blindly without having their own aesthetic!
Yes. Do the IKEA video please. Guide us on the low end good stuff. Thanks.
Yes please!
I agree with almost all your insights save the glass table one. I purchased a round glass dining table for my dining room, well made, with low back chairs that actually look exactly like from a 30s movie "My Man Godfrey" in a scene from a snazzy supper club they opened with down and out have-nots as employees. Not intentional on my part but surprising to see. Anyway, the glass does open up the room as the other furniture is different eras of vintage in wood plus you can see the rug. I see another commenter has same thoughts. What really shocks me is how many wealthy pp have really bad design on the interior including gawdy dated kitchens in some absolutely gorgeous period homes that are worth millions. It's bizarre.
Yes, bad taste isn't limited to poor people.😅 Some of the humblest places are the most inviting and tastefully arranged and edited.
I also have a glass top table which I am keeping. I use placemats and sometimes a table runner. I love the glass look.
“I’m not saying you have to strip everything out of your house…..” oh, phew 😂. I am with Sophie on many of these, but love the wooden chairs. Most of the contents of our house are from auctions, markets, family, eBay so we only have what we love and have never knowingly been on trend! Great video ❤
the music in the background is "clutter"
I agree with some of these. People design based on personal choice,budget, or what is trending.
REALLY valued the tips on moulding. Absolutely cannot afford Sophie’s services (maybe one day!), but love implementing her tips and collab products into my home
I agree the most, but not in everything. I think glass furniture is a good option when the space is small.
So agree with glass top anything. Also - the maintenance... constant dusting!
Love my thick glass top table...my room looks open and great. I have coasters! Custo.cut safety glass.
Totally agree. Yes to IKEA video.
Priceless ❤😂
100% agree with all these points, especially overly sculptural furniture. Form over function lacks common sense.
Oh my goodness agree with everything! I'm an allergy person too, so anything that catches dust makes me instantly hold my breath! Totally needed the trigger warnings ha ha!
thank you for creating this video... as designers we get clients who push some of these trends even when we know it won't fly
Thank you for yet another inspiring video. Would you ever consider doing a video on how to mix and match different wood finishes to achieve a cohesive look? I, personally, would really appreciate your thoughts and input on the subject. Thanks again!
That would be fun, if she did a wood mixing video. We have solved that problem with a few clever techniques. We have both orange toned and reddish brown toned wood stained furniture, and some medium cooler brown items. And peachy pinky millennial tile. And blonde wood. I mostly separated the blonde wood from the red brown stuff in different rooms. Walls were painted a dark brown, Sherwin-Williams Jute brown, That has a coral base that makes the orange cabinets and mental sing beautifully together and looks good with the floor. Amazing difference people think we have new cabinets. A leather chair in a cognac color that harmonizes with the orange wood, A ceiling fan with blades of the same color, apparel Woodchest and a vintage sewing box and some water hyacinth chairs in similar orange to cinnamon tones balance out a few pieces in the more traditional reddish brown opium table, fluted pedestal, end table. Walls that are not dark brown or a light pinkish Taupe that goes great with the floor, another throwback color to the early 2000s but it works. The trick was to find a color to tie them all together and the brown with the coral undertone accomplished that.
The other trick is to marry Wood with low grain patterns. The busier the wood, the more visual excitement there is. The harder it is to get them to behave together. So our rustic pine furniture, even though a lot of it carries the same orange tone, I don't put it anywhere near this stuff. It's upstairs doing its thing in a more organic and natural way. The low grain blonde furniture in white birch and unstained maple lives at the front of the house, I will be adding a more espresso dark brown wall and white curtains and off-white to that space and it will still relate. A blonde wood accent chair actually is not too bad when I move it temporally into the family room where all this other wood is happening. It relates because it has a cream colored upholstery on the seat, and that goes with the soft white curtains, cream club chairs, white piano, white kitchen counters, etc. Oh, and we got a beige flecked soft white Berber area rug to add more neutrals for the wood tones to play off of. Empty nesting is great, you can have the kind of carpet you want! So minding your woodgrain and stacking on the neutral of your choice to play with your Woodtones is another strategy.
The moulding segment was my absolute favourite. We need more of …How not to do it and how to fix it. The only thing missing was a picture of what the final project looked like.
I am so glad that you asked the question of “how do I clean this” because that is my top 3.
I like your calm directness without all the drama/ over excitable personality. I have those dining chairs. Oops. But I know they are temporary for a few years. I went with a cheap fix😐
You make so much sense! You're simply brilliant, gosh, some of those examples you really have to question 'what were they thinking'! I also think of the cleaning aspect first thing xx thanks loved the knightsbridge project, very ott, but just stunning xx simplicity is always elegant and you've got it to the t xx
OMG. I agree with all your points!
I absolutely loved this video Sophie…well done Olly for persuading Sophie to do it 🤭 I, like most viewers would love to see an IKEA video because whilst they do have tat, they also have some really classic pieces that can be upcycled for years to come. X
Your incisive insights are truly praiseworthy. Your infinite knowledge on design itruly reaffirms your position as the Leading Luminary of the Design Arena . As you spoke of wall trims and molding patterns on walls, are they included any more in modern design any longer as they are associated with older architecture.Kindly enlighten on this
On point with everything. For me, the worst of the lot was a toss up between the faux wall plant and shaggy rug..I disliked both equally. Never saw the interest in them.
Girl, you’ve got more shade than Nick Lewis! Who’d a thought it. Completely agree with everything btw.
🫣🤣
Who knew that Sophie was so funny!? The “what is happening here?” at 1:15 and “what is that?” at 8:30 is priceless; I was literally in tears!! Can anyone else tell that the faux plant wall is her absolute least favorite??? THANKFULLY I am not guilty of any of these “trends”. Love your impeccable style Sophie. Please keep giving us great decorating advice!
Lol. Glad
You enjoyed it, you’re right faux plant walls are my nemesis!!
Wallpaper with LED lights - that's a new one by me! Sophie I agrre with you on every point. I'm 58 and remember my mother purchasing a top dining table in the 70's which she regularly assigned one of us to clean as it was just a dust collector, could never keep it bits free. Those houses will date so quickly...
"Your advice is both considerate and practical. However, I still have a deep affection for my Barcelona coffee table designed by Mies van der Rohe, even though it has a glass top. My belief is that when it comes to furniture and decor, one should choose items that they truly love and not simply because they are fashionable. So, I would encourage embracing your personal style and selecting pieces that bring you joy and satisfaction."
Great video Sophie. Keep the videos coming. You are among the best designers and among the best You Tube content creators. This channel is destined to have millions of subscribers. Can’t wait to see what comes next.
Yep. The bum print was on our rental sofa bed when we moved into our rental...eek
I do want a velvet chair. Maybe in a wine, burgundy color.
I can only dream of living in one of Sophie's designed houses. That being said thankfully I don't have any of these in my home! ***sighs a breath of relief*** Fab video as always! You reactions in this one was fabulous 🤣 and had me laugh out loud! x
Girl, you are so on point. I salute all you loath lol. I've visited soooo many homes that just full of glittery bits and bobs and they really do make a house look tacky tacky.
Hahaha! I don't mind a replica chair but I'm with you on everything else! And thanks for the moulding tips, these are incredibly helpful.
I LOVE that Calacatta Viola you have behind you!!❤️
I can 100% relate to this. Pointing out to anyone that something about their space is plain wrong, is very difficult, and as you say a couple of times here, you would just expect them to hate you for it. But I agree with all your comments, I think they are perfect examples of how to make any room look cheap. Thank you for your video.
I also hate faux plants inside my home unless it’s silk flowers in a case that can be changed easily or thrown out when it gets dusty. ❤
I agree with all of these except for one. The shaggy rug. lol But that being said I have conditions. I have put the glittery kind in my kids room before and I like to layer a more low pile shag rug with sheep skin in my own bedroom but I would never use one in a common area like the livingroom where they would get completely destroyed or caked in dirt from shoes. That's it. ☺
I wish I had bought more than one cream colored hundred percent wool shaggy rug when it was $79 at the big box store. It was the perfect 4 x 6 size for our bathroom to keep it from having this odd array of bathmats scattered around and asymmetrical flooring space. It really elevated the space, felt good underfoot, and the standard hotel style bath mat that we used in front of the tub and shower could be put out of the way/into the laundry When not in immediate use. It lasted a really long time before it finally started to look sad, and then I was sad because I didn't have another one and I couldn't find anyone selling such a thing at such a reasonable price and at just the right size!
@@bitrudder3792 There's alot of things I'd wished I'd bought before covid lol the price of everything has become ridiculous.
😂😂 totally agree. Get rid of the ‘tacky’ from your home 😂
My new fav YT Designer! I lol how you suppressed giggling at some of these tacky "designs", and the pro tips are spot on!
Please keep enlightening us with more videos. Love all of your content!
YES, YES, YES!!! Thank you for saying it!!!
I feel I learn more from the 'What not to to do' content than the 'what to do' ones. Thank you for making and sharing this video.
I agree with the glass top tables. My dining table is glass and it has a loooot of scratches and fingerprints that are hard to clean. I don’t want to waste my time cleaning over and over again cuz I’m a meticulous person. 😅
I know the feeling
Thank You for a great video.Yes I never understood the faux plant wall inside the house.
panelling was the best tip, the rest was personal taste.
Brilliant video. Very informative, agree with your comments. Looking forward to the next one.
Really enjoyed this. I would love Part 2 😁. And a video on IKEA would be just great. Thank you.
Once again, great value. Specific, real, aligned with what you represent, Sophie.
Agree with you on all counts, Sophie!
Great video Sophie.
I agree with everything you said
about the things you don’t like.
Loved this video and yes I have mirrors furniture in my home (awful to clean and it’s going before we move next month), your video inspiration are coming with me to our new house😊. Would love to you guys to film a video giving styling advice at our new place too. It’s a grey canvas and we are going more of a stone natural asthetic. Would be fab to discuss further .. love your vibe 😊
Agree 💯 with all!!! Thank you
Cackled all the way through this. I just love you
Great fun video and agree on ALL the points. Love the panelling tips too.
i love your style but cant afford your price point.. perhaps a video highlighting pieces ( chairs rugs, tables) that have same aesthetic at a lower price point would be beneficial. i love picking up tips that i can adapt to my budget
That was fun! I would love an entire video dedicated to wall moulding. The brief part you shared in this video was informative and things I would have never considered.
Enjoy this video, very informative 🎉
Pure Class and style. All the best to you and your team.
I’m going to send this link to my friend , she has most of these in her house😊
Love love this. So true about everything you said. Thank you.
Thanks for the paneling tips Sophie! Loved hearing your do's and don'ts too. You made me laugh at the end of a rough day.
👍🏼
Great tips for creating a beautiful home that is natural and comfortable.
Cleaning and maintenance is really important..great tips.. loved them😊
Amen and thank you!
Love your honesty in this video and couldn’t agree more with your advice 👏🏼
I totally agree with everything she says!
Excellent !!! I have allways wondered : what does Sophie think about the home décor vibe we ve been seeing the last couple of years : Gubi bouclé sofas ; roche Bobois mah jong; rotin chairs and lamps; wood chairs and benches in dining rooms...
I fine all of the above impraticable and inconfortable not to mention these being just trendy items .....
much much prefer classic items
Iam so happy you did this video! No I don't have any of your no nos in my home! Thank goodness... I love a well balanced room that I wouldn't get tired of in a year. Love your Designs very much,!
This was hilarious, I'm gagging at the velvet chair bum print situation 🤣. Please please do an IKEA video, that would be really fun 😊
Good stuff, good advice Sophie, Thank you for the decor lessons, thoroughly enjoyed.
Great job!!! Glad you made this video!
Very elegant delivery and agree!
Phew! Thank goodness I have none of those in my home! I got rid of the white glass and chrome 8-seater monstrosity dining table last year and the grey velvet bum imprinted dining chairs with chrome legs urrgghh and bought a beautiful Australian ash timber dining table. I also purchased 6 wooden Hans Wegner style “wishbone” dining chairs. They probably come under the “massed produced” category and I know they are quite common but I really love them with the new table. I enjoyed this video, please do more like this, Sophie. I’m sure there’s tons more tacky styles that you can think of! 🤣🥰
Another brilliant video. Thanks.
Being a gardener, I can never understand WHY fake plants of any sort. I used to specialise in caring for indoor plants in offices & shopping centres. People with a decent budget can afford to pay for weekly plant care & the rest of us can get so much joy out of diy hardy indoor plants & the added health benefits that indoor plants bring. I love your well thought out luxury interiors but once the imposter plant is recognised, it must allways remind of those dreadful things decorating graves😝
It’s useful for people that travel a lot or work very long hours or have multiple homes
So true..would love you to do an alternative to these and in a few price bands, cheaper, middle and top end!
Absolutely love this video! Totally agree with what you said!! Love the style of the video too
Pretty much agree with all your observations and your explanations 👍
I agree with most of our points here. Not with the chair but hey not everyone will like the same things. But agree with most
Enjoyable and informative, thank you. A dash of glitter doesn't hurt.
She thinks of everything!
Excellent thanks for sharing! I would love to see a video on how to mix patterns in interior design with some examples! That would be super helpful !
Thank you
I was afraid that I was going to see something I like that you were going to trash but I'm with you 100% on every single thing. Good video!
First time here. I really thought I was going to hate this video when I read the title, but I think she hot the nail on the head. Her ideas are practical as well as tasteful.
Thanks that means a lot!
Very informative, thanks ❤️
Love this! Crushed velvet, please make it stop lol!!!
Thanks for all good tips you shared! You are the best of best among the interior designers I have seen on the RUclips. Look forward to seeing more great videos from you. Thanks!
💯
I love your channel and personality so much thank you Sophie ❤❤❤this was truly helpful
