@Stephen Grant haha, you didn't hear him correctly. He is not a businessman. These are his objects of love, or reminders of good times in his life. I cannot be that rude to try to take these from him; for whatever amount of money. It has nothing to do with money. Do you understand the concept?
In the world today everyone will come to the realization nothing of $ value can save us. Nobody is comingc2 save you. We have to save our selves regardless how insistent the government is on making us dependent on them. The government never protects it controls & now they have the world at their feet
Teresa Skinner That's Ann Rand. The problem with that is that the wealthy and the corporations want our services for a little as possible. And there are people who can't take care of themselves. And there are people who get sick. And there are people who can only do simple work for not enough money to take care of themselves. If you want to adopt some of these people and take care of them, then fine. But I bet you don't want to help. And they will keep increasing in number until the rich have walls around them and the poor are on the other side with no power to change anything.
He has now passed. He was the most tasteful, purposeful, quintessential English decorator. Few can perfect maximalism. He perfected it. He is my inspiration and my interior design hero. I will miss him.
Of all the House & Garden videos this is the only one (in my opinion ) that shews real individual classic English Country House Style What a wonderful house , what a wonderful collection , what a wonderful man , It is a privilege to be allowed to to share this however briefly Thank you so much
What a fascinating gentleman. Would love to pop round to his home, I could listen to him all day about the history behind all of his wonderful collection.
Same, Cycling Go! I listened to this once, and then watched it again! Would love to engage this wonderful soul in conversation. Just listening to him talk about his cool stuff is nearly fun enough lol.
@@primrosedahlia9466 I was thinking the same, that I would love to be present to ask my own questions about how he came to find certain things, and why he chose others. My definition of a most splendid day.
Well then my dear, there are decorators and then there are collectors of life, contemporary and ancient. Here is a man worthy of his “work” and how I so admire his engaging efforts. This video is to be repeated often and ever while life spins it’s yarn and a cup of tea is at hand. Thank you for posting from California.
I loved when he said nothing is valuable anyway. It hit me in my core , as this is how I view things since the passing of my husband; nothing is valuable.
My father passed away in November 2017 following a terrifying tryst with cancer. About a month or so after, we realised that our family safe had been cleaned out. Cherished heirlooms and pieces shrouded in sentiment that had survived floods, fires, famines and wars were probably being torn apart and smelted down at some shabby by-lane jewellers. Several family friends were aghast at the financial aspects of the robbery, but my sister and I had just lost a parent who we could never replace - somehow that did not seem to hit them as much. When one of those well-meaning friends asked how we could still be standing, given the huge financial loss, I remember being quite short with him and telling him exactly these words...
He's one of my favourite classic English country house decorators. You need intelligence and a good eye to do this well, plus a life rich with experience and reverence for history. I personally feel that you cannot teach style, that innate flair some people have that separates them from others aesthetically. Perhaps you're not meant to declare this out loud? Well, I think it's a tragedy because so many wish they had what comes so naturally to others. A gift, it's part of who they are. This cannot be replicated by any of those 'Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' or Cheshire or wherever, no matter how determined they might be. RIP Helen.
Robert Kime is absolutely one of my favorite decorators! I love to collect beautiful items as well. They don’t need to be valuable, but there needs to be something interesting to me. Today everyone is so minimal that homes can just become boring white boxes. Of course as a Christian I don’t think we should store up earthly treasures, but let’s not be fearful to live beautifully if we can no matter what the budget is. Your home must be a reflection of who you are! I’m an interior design student at the moment after raising two children who are in college & flight training. I would love to learn the business from Mr. Kime, I would love to meet him. We have a kindred spirit! I wish there were more videos about him!
What an absolutely beautiful home with great energy and warmth and love for each item which is acknowledged for its message it gives its owner. I like this man very much, a depth of soul and completely genuine. Thank you for allowing us into your home home Sir.
Love that he decorated and rearranged the shed, and that started his life. I use to dig in our garden for treasures, I loved history, and was intrigued by the way people lived in ancient times. Archaeology has always been my passion.
I felt such pride when Robert mentioned Geoffrey Bennison. He was absolutely right, he was an incredible dealer. A fabulous eclectic collection of antiques & decor. A thoroughly enjoyable watch.
I've just discovered this man today. What a special person, with such depth and sensitivity and...matter-of-factness. All signs of a great mind and soul. I'm in NYC, recovering from Covid and this video has really lifted my spirits. Thanks for posting.
Hope you totally recovered with no long time lasting problems! I am reading your post a year after you wrote it. Your post lifted my spirits. I don’t lean towards being materialistic and I feel each of us does not need much so why bother with creating or appreciating arts and crafts, decorative objects and fine art (most important is enough food to survive, clean drinking water etc.) So even though I am drawn to appreciating the art of others and like to create myself, I question so many times is this an important use of time and energy while we are on this planet. Yet your post reminded me how important beauty is to our soul (and is a part of our physical health as well ) so I should not discount it. Thanks for your post - it was a delight to read.
Joey Wang Yes! It takes patience and perseverance but good stuff is there. Some of my happy finds in thrift stores have been a double-rose Roseville vase for $3.00, a jadeite Fire King mug for .49, and a strange little butterfly wing bar tray for $2.00. I sold the last on eBay for $47.00. Not thousands but not bad!
For $30 at a local thrift store in TX I bought four original, painted panels that are designs for murals for a NY building from the 1930s. I nearly had a heart attack when I found them but it does happen. You just have to go regularly or you need to start going to estate sales. That is were the really good stuff is!
"My jumble, it's such a mess everywhere". Far from it. Mr. Kime's house has a lot in it but it's not jumbled or cluttered. It's a pleasure to the eyes made up of many pleasures to the eyes. This video could go on and on with all the wonderful things in the house.---When Mr. Kime was sitting down I thought those were playing cards on the table in front of him and wondered if he had been playing some version of Solitaire which I think he in England would call Patience. Then the video ended with the playing cards on screen. I'm an enthusiastic Solitaire player here in the U.S. and would like to know what version Mr. Kime had been playing and also just what the cards look like. I have decks of cards from France and Austria but none from England.
Like...never! Where has this content been all my life? These are my people. This is my horse's tail.... Is it? I mean, obviously you should keep and display it!
Yes. This is what I call a home. It has character. Loved and lived in. My house is full of "junk" too, stuff collected over a lifetime, found in thrift stores and flea markets.
I return to this video again and again. I even slow the playback speed and frequently pause the video so I can look at the rooms and the objects. So many beautiful interesting things.
At 6:30 - "I don't know how you can describe romance..." [Camera pans to the dreamy, delightful frame of a figure at a large window.] I had to rewind, pause, and take it in.
I was like a child following this gentle man around listening to his stories and histories of items. My eyes were darting thtough the cabinets while he was rummaging to bring out an exquisite treasure, I didn't want to miss a thing! However, after his explanation of Romance, 6:33, I had to snap the pause and catch my breath! He was "Killing Me Softly" with his words. No wonder I am having such a hard time being a minamalist, I'm not a minamalist, lol. Thank you H&G for such a delightful interview sans self-important interviewee voice and loud background music. You have a new subscriber.
Man, I really love the curtain rods all across the ceilings with chains hanging to hold portraits. This gentleman is a genius! I am going to do this all over my house because I have a ridiculous collection of art and I cannot pass up a gold ornate frame to save my life! This makes it looks so clean 😍😍😍
I usually don't like picture rails, but it does make sense if you are constantly collecting new artwork and have sensitive/valuable/difficult walls or wall treatments. This version with chains is really the go to in many antique shops, and not so common in private homes but it's very much part of his own story. You can use very strong fishing line (the kind for deep sea fishing) and strong woven ribbon too. Depending on how much weight the pictures involve.
Oh my goodness, his health has so much depth and character and history and interest! My favorite part about the whole house is the picture hanging system. I have to copy that… I wish I could look up close and see what type of chain he used… That is fabulous.
It is called a picture rail. Been used for ages by all decorators. They can be made of simple, plain white (or any color) painted metal to blend in with the wall or you can have something more elaborate like his, which I think is cast iron.
"Does it look like a mess to you?". Yes an amazingly good and quirky mess. I love the antiquities and patina of everything from his leather chairs, tapestries and artifacts. Brilliant, I could sit there for weeks and just ponder time.
Some observations: 1. He doesn't own a sofa. 2. The rugs in sitting room with the bay window run across the room, rather than lengthwise. Also, one rug does not always "define one seating arrangement". 0:17 3. The picture rail is genius and those are chains, not cord, hanging the pictures. 4. At 0:17, next to the fire place there is a chair against the wall, nearly perpendicular to another chair. Only this man could get away with doing that. 5. At 0:21 he is sitting on a chair with a side table that is partially in front of the doorway. 6. Where is his TV? Has he "cut the cord"? 7. Wall to wall sisal or sea grass carpeting under the rugs. 8. 5:18 All different styles and colors of frames. 9. A white bed with only two striped pillows matched with a busy canopy. 10. There is a hint of symmetry but it is never precise. 0:14 11. 4:21 The chandelier is not over the seating arrangement. It's over the center of the room. He breaks all the rules and gets away with it beautifully!

Wow I just got slapped with sage wisdom. The material world can make you a slave
But we all know it very much is in that house - which is fabulous. he loves all of them as much as a tuppence.
Visiting this again after Robert's passing. Such a beautiful outlook on life, and a beautiful home. Rest in peace, Robert.
Didn't know he had. This, THIS, is real decorating...
@@saradastrickman6406 Yes! (It's love).
He has now passed. He was the most tasteful, purposeful, quintessential English decorator. Few can perfect maximalism. He perfected it. He is my inspiration and my interior design hero. I will miss him.
These are the kind of rooms that make my heart go pitter patter.
Me too!
Come and see me! I have a jumble, too. No room for my socks. Heaven!
I feel lucky to have watched this. A gentle person and with impeccable taste.
Taste yes, but not without his connections which he was belong to from his beginning….
@juyeonbyon2425 No doubt he had connections from an early age
A lovely gentle man, showing us his treasures, God I love a collector.
Style over fashion everytime! How wonderful.
Rest in Peace, Mr Robert Kime, thank you for the immense inspiration you gave to us. 🕯
Of all the House & Garden videos this is the only one (in my opinion ) that shews real individual classic English Country House Style What a wonderful house , what a wonderful collection , what a wonderful man , It is a privilege to be allowed to to share this however briefly Thank you so much
Utterly charming man and a home full of soul and stories ♥️
What a fascinating gentleman. Would love to pop round to his home, I could listen to him all day about the history behind all of his wonderful collection.
Exactly! I'm like adopt me!
Same. I could have spent a lot of time with this man listening to the story behind each item in his home
Same, Cycling Go! I listened to this once, and then watched it again! Would love to engage this wonderful soul in conversation. Just listening to him talk about his cool stuff is nearly fun enough lol.

How beautifully put
I have watched this video multiple times. I love Robert Kime’s style, home and calming voice.
Rest In Peace Mr. Kime🙏❤️
What an intelligent, humble and warm gentleman! Could listen to his words for hours
One of my most pleasurable RUclips experiences. Thank you. What a wonderful man, and place!
I loved when he said nothing is valuable anyway. It hit me in my core , as this is how I view things since the passing of my husband; nothing is valuable.
He died shortly after this video aired. I think he might have known he wasn't in good health. Wise words for us to live by.
I've watched this video now damn near a dozen times. He has wonderful taste. I'm hoping that with repeat viewing, it rubs off.
Whenever I’m in a bad mood, I watch this with Robert Kime 🥰
The epitome of class and brilliance. A life well done and so accomplished. Bravo to this man!!
Such a sweet man! I love his excitement about the memories and things he loves!
The man is a master, the rooms are a master piece . Just casually thrown together. Sublime!
Was searching for the words to express my admiration for both the man and his collection, and you've expressed it perfectly, Julian Coulden.
Thank you!
It is anything but casually thrown together. It takes a whole lot of curating, editing and restraint to get that look. And serious amount of money.
This is the way I like to decorate. Al collection of beautiful and interesting objects. The beauty speaks for itself.
He had me at "Nothing is very valuable, anyway." He has lost people, too.
Yes it is a beautiful thing to say from someone who is a serious collector.
Yes it is a certain language you recognize

This home looks RICH without even trying
Why do I feel like people don’t live lives of such adventures much anymore? I could listen to him for ages.
I think they do but you have to look to find them
I love this man! Every word that comes out of his mouth is poetry.
Love that he decorated and rearranged the shed, and that started his life. I use to dig in our garden for treasures, I loved history, and was intrigued by the way people lived in ancient times. Archaeology has always been my passion.
He reminds me of my late step-father. Same voice, same taste, same sort of home. Wonderful memories flooding back.
What a beautiful home filled with delightful eclectic objects! I adore it!!
Beautiful rooms, cozy and warm and a lovely man.
I felt such pride when Robert mentioned Geoffrey Bennison. He was absolutely right, he was an incredible dealer. A fabulous eclectic collection of antiques & decor. A thoroughly enjoyable watch.
Is it not wonderful to be surounded by all these lovely things... Love it!
Magical, lovely to see a life through collecting
How lovely--a life well lived with so many memories attached to everything he owns. Lucky man.

RIP, dear man...I revisit this video often.
I can't imagine living in a time when you could regularly find gems in thrift stores.
Joey Wang Yes! It takes patience and perseverance but good stuff is there. Some of my happy finds in thrift stores have been a double-rose Roseville vase for $3.00, a jadeite Fire King mug for .49, and a strange little butterfly wing bar tray for $2.00. I sold the last on eBay for $47.00. Not thousands but not bad!
I am a thrift store shopper and a treasure hunter. You won’t believe what some people donate. I found so many treasures in years.

You can today. It takes a lot of time and a keen eye but it's entirely possible.

Oh this is wonderful! I could listen to him for hours.
Just heard he's passed away. Loved his style and elegance...
A lovely man! He had such good taste. Sad he’s passed on.
When you realize you will never be a minimalist
Like...never! Where has this content been all my life? These are my people. This is my horse's tail.... Is it? I mean, obviously you should keep and display it!
😁
Totally agree. ;) There shouldn’t be any shame in plentiful taste.
There is far too much beauty in the world to minimize it.
Minimalism means primarily colorless, which is a symptom of depression.
I have never felt so understood in my life! A kindred spirit, though of course with amazing talent...would LOVE to visit with him!
Yes. This is what I call a home. It has character. Loved and lived in. My house is full of "junk" too, stuff collected over a lifetime, found in thrift stores and flea markets.
I love this man and his belief that nothing is truly all that valuable. In the end it’s just stuff.
The stumpwork embroidery is indeed incredible!
I hope that the items from Egypt will find their way home. Fascinating home. Love the way he hung all the paintings.
I really love his collection, Everything is so beautiful and elegant. Thank you for this wonderful video. ❤
Thank you for sharing this generosity and kindness by posting it today. May his dear soul rest peacefully 💌
A beautiful home and an incredibly beautiful collection! This was a treat. Thank you very much for the upload.
Watching this never fails to educate, entertain and inspire………:
Oh and the subtle and warm colours……………
Oh to travel by bus to junk shops…….
Beautiful collection and presented in such an elegant way. It's obvious the love of beauty, the gravitas of historic culture animates his drive.
I watched this video many times. There is some magic in it !!!!
I return to this video again and again. I even slow the playback speed and frequently pause the video so I can look at the rooms and the objects. So many beautiful interesting things.
A big thanks to HOUSE AND GARDEN for creating this- what is now, a retrospective video of Robert Kime and part of his life. Bravo~
I could listen until I peacefully fall asleep. When I wake up, I would just keep listening. So many entertaining stories.
I could watch this over and over and find comfort in it! Beautiful.
Embarrassed to say how many times my wife and I have watched this. We just keep clicking "play - pause, play - pause" trying to absorb it all.
At 6:30 - "I don't know how you can describe romance..." [Camera pans to the dreamy, delightful frame of a figure at a large window.] I had to rewind, pause, and take it in.
You are very into detail. Wow!

You can use very strong fishing line (the kind for deep sea fishing) and strong woven ribbon too. Depending on how much weight the pictures involve.
This is probably my favorite interiorly designed home, in a video. Robert, you have a fabulous eye and great fluidity.
He's so poetic the way he described his collection.. Pure enthusiasm.. No pretentiousness..i wanna be like him.
Passion on display ❤🧡❤
The most amazing place to live. He is inspiring. His attitude, stories and style all so lovely.
wow I used to do the same thing in my basement when I was a kid. I'd rearrange furniture, create seating areas, make curtains..cool!
Me too!
@@388Caroline :D
Design really is about spirit. Objects and pieces with stories is what makes it and he captured this so beautifully!
The Best . All ,so much , He is TOTAL REFINEMENT. The Color The Arrangement.The Best. Master
Heart and soul . Respect your PERFECT BALANCE.
His sensibility and appreciation for the beauty and history of each object is so refreshing. His home is the museum and he is the expert intellect! 😊
Well done, a nice gentle presentation.
I would never want to leave the house. So beautiful.
Enchanting.
Stunning,enormously charming gentleman and his beautiful home full of artifacts,history,whimsy and treasures.
He was a great storyteller. We need a book!
What class. Love this man, love his home with all the things in it. Gorgeous.
PERFECTION
I watch this once every couple months. What a great interview.
This is the one show us also with the true value of the old thing!he is so respectful!
Wouldn't it be wonderful to spend a day with this man showing you about his incredibly interesting possessions. 😊
Humility and Graciousness. An Englishman showing us his home.
He is what you would call a 'collectorator', my hero !
The RUGS! OMG. The chandeliers! The pottery & porcelains!
Oh my goodness, his health has so much depth and character and history and interest! My favorite part about the whole house is the picture hanging system. I have to copy that… I wish I could look up close and see what type of chain he used… That is fabulous.

5. At 0:21 he is sitting on a chair with a side table that is partially in front of the doorway.
6. Where is his TV? Has he "cut the cord"?
7. Wall to wall sisal or sea grass carpeting under the rugs.
8. 5:18 All different styles and colors of frames.
9. A white bed with only two striped pillows matched with a busy canopy.
10. There is a hint of symmetry but it is never precise. 0:14
11. 4:21 The chandelier is not over the seating arrangement. It's over the center of the room.
He breaks all the rules and gets away with it beautifully!
I noticed these points as well. Fascinating!
What a glorious home and collection!
Thank you, H&G. What a treat.
MAGNIFICENT TREASURES, SIR... BEAUTIFUL MAGNIFICENT TREASURES!!!!
I could stay and listen to all his wonderful stories.
I love it! What stories each items has to tell.
Such a glorious home. Quite lovely.
What a wonderful, sensitive soul. So glad to have had a moment to encounter him and his essence.
