    This lady is one of the few who sounds and looks authentic, genuine, no fuss about her things, no nonsense pretensions way of present herself and her home, refreshing! Love it!

      There are a lot of people like that but, finally Homeworthy is realizing this is an important quality for us viewers! ❤

    this woman is a legend. love seeing real people in real homes over the overly wealthy looking houses. Artist homes are the best!

    I have never left a comment after watching Homeworthy. However, l was so moved by the lack of pretension emanating from this woman and apartment that I had to mention that l think that it was the best Homeworthy that I have watched, and I loved the soul of her apartment. Great!

    @virginiawestcot3111 Před 27 dny +66

    I enjoy NYC apartment tours way more than the big estates because the apartment dwellers have to use every item and make multiple use of many items and keep the apartment looking welcoming and comfortable. Enjoyed this video.

    • @yvonnebertrand3731
      @yvonnebertrand3731 Před 25 dny +1

      NYC apartment tours are my absolute favorite.

      Lovin the apartment tours and enjoy smaller homes in other towns, too. Like Margo Roth's regular home in Winston-Salem, NC. Being on Homeworthy YT is such an honor for anyone.

  • @kerrybyers257
    @kerrybyers257 Před 27 dny +65

    Love this artist’s humble authenticity. A refreshing change from most HW tours. And not a single overused designer buzz word. I want to meet this gal.

    • @pattykelly6621
      @pattykelly6621 Před 27 dny +8

      Did you notice she didn't have a single 'moment' in her home? So refreshing.

      @bitcoin_deb3428 Před 27 dny

      Haha I was thinking the same exact thing ​@@pattykelly6621! It's so corny when they say that

  • @woodnewsnow
    @woodnewsnow Před 27 dny +73

    I don't usually comment but this lady and her apartment are the definition of unique and creative. A "maker" in action in every part of her life. Lovely to see.

  • @fishercourt
    @fishercourt Před 27 dny +28

    What I absolutely love about this lady is her storytelling through her objects in her home. As a former props designer and manager, I really appreciate her creativity and dedication to creating objects that are meant for function and for production purposes.
    This lady really warms my heart by reminding me of my passion for designing and creating props. The memories from wandering through many antique shops, consignment type stores, and shopping for unique items for professional theatrical plays. I actually did this prior to having the luxury to order online items. So, every single item that I created I would spend so much time on the tiny details that work with stage lighting and following the details of the director’s insight for the accurate portrayal of items that would be seen from a variety of perspectives. A Black box theatre vs a large professional theatre with a variety of different audience perspectives.
    Anyway, sorry for rambling, this lady just inspired me to look back at the items I still have in my attic collection.
    Love this lady and her creativity. ❤

  • @azurea0587
    @azurea0587 Před 25 dny +15

    Kiera's individuality and utter lack of interest in trends or impressing viewers with expensive furnishings are an inspiration. Spaces like hers--unpredictable, personal, meaningful--are my favorites on Homeworthy.

  • @ohydie
    @ohydie Před 27 dny +22

    Love her way of "Hiding things in plain sight.". Genius.

  • @Eloiseat6
    @Eloiseat6 Před 27 dny +25

    I LOVE this place! It’s just gorgeous and everything has personal meaning. Also, I’m so glad she used the word “tableau” for her small spatial arrangements. I hear people on CZcams calling them “vignettes” or “moments,” which relate to time, not space, which irks me. As a prop stylist, she knows the right terms. Her home makes me want to get back to my own arts and crafts.

  • @d.brooks3182
    @d.brooks3182 Před 27 dny +20

    First comment for this channel... just can't express how much I love this beautiful home, and the creative, joyful homeowner. WOW!!! Best episode ever; will inspire me to be as free and creative as possible in my own home. It was all about personal expression and not $. Thank you!

  • @mariaecheverria8747
    @mariaecheverria8747 Před 26 dny +12

    She is so cool! Love her philosophy to decorating, “if I can’t afford, I make it! “ Her place totally reflects her! Just love how much she treasures her personal objects, from her mother’s art work to found objects in the park! 💚

  • @maaamiii6918
    @maaamiii6918 Před 27 dny +12

    This woman and her home were a breath of fresh air! Both so genuine and unaffected, yet unique and special. Thank you for sharing your calm space of respite from the city. Just lovely!

    I love people like this cool lady! Truly creative, super down to earth, not trying to show off, just genuinely eager to share her space and her wonderful creativity with us all. This is why I love Homeworthy!

  • @pattykelly6621
    @pattykelly6621 Před 27 dny +15

    OMG...I love this woman. What a charming home. Can I say, I LOVE vintage typing tables. They are marvelous little things. I buy them whenever I find them. They all get spray painted with some punchy color, gloss preferred. And they are primarily plant stands. I use them inside and out. Sadly they are getting harder to find. I've sold a few and given some away and I had to downsize a while back so I only have 2 left. But I am always on the hunt. AND, I too make a lot of paper mache. It is often thought of as a child's craft but really it is so versatile. You can make anything look amazing when it's covered with paper mache and a bit of paint. Homeworthy, I would love to see more of this kind of home. Not designer, lived in, made with love, comfortable and adapted to the needs of the owner. I am definitely starting a trash alphabet!

    • @shonabeggs4640

      Why are you on the hunt for more tables when you've given them away?

  • @amandawoods4051
    @amandawoods4051 Před 26 dny +4

    Thank you for showing us your home. One of the very few Homeworthy videos that I watched all the way through. This lady is actually interesting, authentic and unrehearsed in what she shared. Thanks again

  • @jenh9361
    @jenh9361 Před 27 dny +18

    This lovely lady has created the epitome of simplicity, with a menagerie of whimsey and easy pops of color...
    That's both easy on the eye and creatively orchestrated!!!
    Eclectic and curated decors always have a warm and welcoming ambiance about them 😊

  • @egnacruz2168
    @egnacruz2168 Před 25 dny +3

    I live in Brazil and started watching the channel a little over a month ago because there is no more news on Pinterest and I wanted to find new ideas to renovate my apartment. In that 1 month I saw houses full of rooms to the point of not even showing everything 😂, a dining room, a conversation room, a coffee room, a room to be alone, etc. people worried about works of art and attached to floors, colors and kitchens that Never even used, too many dishes. I think Kiara's house is synonymous with a woman who seeks an alternative because she cannot have the resources to get what you want and She didn't limit herself, she used her creativity to produce the vase, the bowl, etc. and that makes her happy, she reuses materials she finds in the trash and that doesn't make her feel any less happy, she is proud of her DIYs. Very creative. Great life lesson, it would be great to see more alternative houses like Kiara's or famous artists on the channel.😍🇧🇷

  • @biasanto
    @biasanto Před 27 dny +19

    If you notice there is not one item trendy on her house. Quite magnificent because it’s really hard to not be influenced. She has a very unique home. Nothing is the same and she doesn’t really follow designer look. You can find a lot of inspiration in here all the wall art are beautiful. Her style is a bit messy for my taste but as she says it’s who she is

    1:09 love the way she said my artwork is from love ones. That’s the best kind of artwork not all from Paris Africa expensive auctions or a famous artist like what is some of these homeworthy tours people like to show off she’s adorable and I love her name🤣🔥🤣

    Like the others, i have to say her style is wonderful, unique, just authentic. There are so many interiours you see, that look like a picture in a catalouge. A collection of style, stylish items presented. But this appartment is a reflection of Life, a place where a person lives. And that ist PURE STYLE 😃👍 Greetings from Germany alex 🤗

    She is so precious. Her home is so unique. Thank you so much for doing a video of her home. Just love the way she displays everything. Alot of people would not display their loved one's works of art. Her mother's artwork is beautiful, along with the handcrafted things she made.

  • @craigadams4143
    @craigadams4143 Před 26 dny +4

    Such a creative person! I think she is correct about homes needing a sense of whimsy to help personalize them. I'm just so bored when i walk into a living space and everything is perfect, staged and pretentious. Those rooms have no personality. They look like hotel lobbies. I like when people have things in their homes that make me feel warm inside, or , perhaps, make me smile or chuckle. I know I've got to learn a lot more about paper machete from watching this video. I'm intrigued!🕵️. My suggestion is not to do anything with the cabintry that holds catch alls on top. It is perfect just the way it is🎉

  • @ralugator
    @ralugator Před 27 dny +5

    Very charming hostess and home. Many good ideas, too. My hand lotion is always out and not so nice looking, so I'll think of an attractive vessel to transfer it to.

    @meganschaeffer Před 25 dny +1

    Also a first time commenter on Homeworthy! Totally inspired by the quirky, creative, laid back approach to a home and loved belongings. If I was a guest of Kiera's, I'd want to make stuff, talk about whatever, and would really be able relax. Dreamy!

  • @midoann
    @midoann Před 26 dny +2

    Isn’t she unique by being her and introducing us to her world she loves, the more the video continues she gets more and more interesting and I get more curious to watch all her pieces of art. She has a magic wand and turns beautiful or cute or unique simple but not nice to our eyes items. 🎉 her mother is an amazing artists 🎉🎉

  • @dissidentfairy4264
    @dissidentfairy4264 Před 26 dny +1

    I really enjoyed this tour more than I thought I would. She's eclectic, a bit quirky, artistic, and imaginative, some of my favorite combos. It's so great to have art from relatives as well as her own art. Her paper måché is whimsical and fun, and her mothers art is fabulous, and her step-father's ceramics sublime, and her father's secret caché pot nostalgic. (pun intended) lol I thought her mother's painting of her aunt was genius in the sense that half of it was grounded and the other half of it incorporeal. It masterfully conveys our temporal earthly existence giving us a glimpse into the present, and our future, and a window into our past.

  • @Redpill1962
    @Redpill1962 Před 25 dny +1

    Great tour ! Let’s have more of these much more individual homes ! Way more interesting than the chopped cushion brigade 😅 The pastel paintings are wonderful 🎉
