Graham is a true artist! I am blown away by his craftsmanship. Love the vibes of your show too!
I totally feel the same!💖🌸🌷🍀🌿
I came here to basically say the same thing. Graham is a beast at what he does. And, he seems so humble.
Totally 👍
@@fabienneroure9995
Yes! This should be called The Graham Show!!!
@@lovingmayberry307 that would be unfair to the creator of the channel and all the wonderful talent that make all these videos magical. I absolutely adore his creations, but I love Alexandria's interior design skills, the videography and editing. It's a Team AG thing.
Jawdrop on how the coffee table process worked by Graham gets better and better... functional and aesthetically nice. this channel has brilliant minds 😂
I agree, Graham is a star and deserves more respect from the others. I always feel that Alexandra is laughing AT him.
@@IreneDreger To be fair, I think that everyone laughs AT each other AND with each other. My family has this sort of relationship where you comfortably make jabs because of inside jokes etc. It's often a display of great affection (i.e., like how Graham often pokes fun of Alexandra when she makes some mistakes). It's totally normal and healthy! No denial from me though that Graham is awesome!
They’re like a fun loving family. They can make fun of and still respect and love each other. It’s like working with your siblings. At the end of the day, they won’t have it any other way because it’s done with love; not ill intentions.
One thing for sure, they need to start making furniture by request. Graham’s works definitely needs to be available to us. I know he’s busy with the show but furniture this unique needs to be available to the public. Just my thoughts. Looking forward to seeing your hallway makeover. Keep up the good work team. ❤
❤ Agree Graham is awesome with Mad Skills!
Hi team AG, I have a request. There has been a little change in your video's editing since the start of 2024. This beat music going non stop makes it a struggle to keep watching for neuroatupical viewers like adhd or hp. We can't hear you speak and the rythm is almost stressfull. My tv settings are already set to keep this type of background sounds lower than the way you edit it to be. Can you please lower the music at least when someone is speaking, or give us a break, or even go back to the music you used before please? I'm 15 minutes in, music has stoppped only for 2 secs and honestly I have no idea of what's going on because my hearing is too overwelmed for my brain to comprehend 🫠
Thank you for this comment!!
I am a healthy 54 old and the musik bothers me so much!!!
Oh same here and I'm 33. The music is so overwhelming on top of the voices
Same here! Music is good, but it feels almost non-stop 👍
Thank you so much! Please stop the music, or turn it down?
Yeah and we’ll make airplane seat 3 ft wide
That coffee table is so smart with the built in tray. Graham is a mastermind!
I kind of think those crazy complicated projects are his favorite part of the job!
Alexandra is visibly and genuinely so happy for the people she delivers the projects to. The video editor is also another chef kiss, it's so fun to watch. I hope that people in the boat or forest, who have AOS neon sings, also have wifi to watch Alexandra videos 😂
Love you!!!!
Team AG, may I challenge you to a makeover where you don't buy new furniture, just use what is already in the room, as it is very common for most people to be on a budget and with mix and maching furniture from the rental house itself.
Love from Portugal
Yes, or furniture that isn’t gifted! Article furniture is expensive!
I’ve suggested several times a $500 budget using only what’s there plus thrifted/trash picked items… maybe even as a crossover with another channel to see who can meet the challenge better. I hope this happens because it’s both practical and fun.
Maybe the persons getting the makeover are happy to have the new gifted items? Not sure but there may be a reason behind
Yes. If I had the money and the manpower they have my apartment would look like it looks now.
I have to admit that you are the only designer I’ve ever seen that does things for the client and not what this months or years trends are.
Well stated, thank you for saying!
the wavy things are getting a bit tired don't you think?
Exactaly!
@@dezmair1288if you do too much yes but just 1 piece in my opinion is cute
@@a.phillips6892the ads in my algorithm are full of wavy things. There a coffee table that I call the Flintstones table.
Can you do an episode in which you revisit apartments you renovated a while ago, talk to the owners and see what worked out and what they changed since
I think this really gets to lived in spaces and the normalcy of editing things
A moment of silence and awe for Graham's craftmanship... Just pure talent and skills, he's truly an artist 😍
Okay, Graham is going to be stinking rich if he has his own line of furniture pieces. He’s creative and unique. He really needs to create his own furniture label. ❤
I think Graham should have his own channel! He’s soooooo talented and seriously what I enjoy the most in every video. That coffee table is just insane!
Ssshhh 🤫
I was going to say the same thing 😀
Take a cold shower
I am in my sixties and I need a cold shower every time I see Graham create his masterpieces,LOL @@rosshorn4620
I think this every time - Graham for sure needs his own channel!
Graham is a GENIUS
Also I hope "Baskets are so great because you can store stuff in them." was a snarky James addition!! Just LOVE the editing humor as always!
100% it was. I could practically hear him cackling as he wrote it. 💗James
Yes! Go James!❤
Wow, that coffee table is amazing, Graham should have his own woodworking show :) So glad you got the cushion for Kuma, the bed was looking not so comfortable :) This apartment came out so cute but I would have added a big comfy chair in the corner instead of the small ottoman.
same.
Yes! Great idea
But pets like ottomans
Heavens! Graham’s work here is an absolute tour du force! Beyond impressive. The rate at which his skills improve while he still remains so humble. A total gem 💎
I’ve watched HGTV for years and Graham is the most creative person I’ve ever seen! He uses both the left and right of his brain to create. Graham you are TRULY talented! 🎉
It's so funny how the comments section becames a Graham Fanclub (and Iove it and love him)
That coffee table is awesome! Graham is a true craftsman.
we must protect graham at all costs! Also we need a story learning about his background and his inspo, I hope he realizes how talented and appreciated he is!
I would love for Graham to auction off a piece of his beautifully made furniture pieces for a charity near and dear to Team AG's heart! His work is just incredible!
Graham's coffee table is amazing, but James cracked me up with his editing 🙌and the couple and Kuma are so cute! Wonderful makeover 💕
Petition for a Graham’s workshop playlist on Spotify 🎧 ❤❤❤
Kuma's corner is everything ❤ I love the colors. And the place looks so much larger now as well
Graham needs to start marketing his designs or plans. Made by Graham. I'd buy that.
Also, my heart just melted when I saw how excited Kuma was about his new booshie lifestyle. Inspiring! My kitties are going to be livin' the booshie life, too.
Idk how you do it! Every 👏🏻time 👏🏻!! You’d think by now I’d be bored watching these, I’m a professional interior designer myself and I have been watching you for YEARS & yet nothing excites me like a new AG makeover video ❤. You’re all so talented & I envy the continued creative energy. Great job!
UGH I want that coffee table omgggg The scrap tray is genius and so pretty.
Graham's DIYs are always amazing!!
Video editor, James - You are the absolute best in the biz. You kill it. 🔪 The basket quote... 😂
Graham is so talented! I was in awe of him in this video. He never disappoints.
fabulous. I love how their eyes widened and eyebrows shot up simultaneously. Another WONDERFUL makeover Team AG.
the coffee taaaaabbllllllee
Graham is a genius. What an artist!
Looove this episode! Shows how colors aren't always intimidating in a space. Also, we need more episodes with pets. 😭 Cutie Kuma! 🩷
Kuma says hi ❤
Especially love Kuma's corner! Neon light and pic! Love the whole look!
That table is to die for. Too much brilliance in that one piece.a work of art.
And yes kuma's corner is the cutest and the coziest.
Graham should have his own line of furniture. He is so talented
"KUMA" in language of Serbian people means GOD MOTHER (lady who is your baptist mother ) .🐕❤️ Room is so REFRESHED !!! I love it .❤I ,adore all your room transformations ,full of new energy.👏 Hello to all members of creative companionship from Serbia🇷🇸 !!!🤗🌺🌷🌼
so this Kuma is an official DOG mother, GOD being DOG spelled backwards 😬
In Swahili, Kuma means a virgna , it's a vulgar word used as an insult in Kenya . But I am glad it means something different elsewhere
Kumana means something like "family" in some Australian Aboriginal languages. So hello from Australia
Kuma is bear in japanese
@@maureenkagendo3050nilikuja kutoboa hii siri 😂😂. Every time they said it I wanted to run and hide.
Graham is just beyond talented.
Absolutely gorgeous. I'm moving out to a place by myself after 40 years of child rearing in Australia. Your genius at studio apartment makeovers gives me hope for a cosy fun home. Thank you 🤩😍🥰 And the editing .. lol
That table and the tray inside are so gorgeous. Graham is a wizard.
I love your makeovers and Graham's diy's so much I want a new video every Saturday!
❤ Absolutely gorgeous! Way to go team AG!! LOVE the coffee table.
Graham, I can not wait until you have your own craft furniture shop and I can buy a Graham original!!
If I won the lottery, I wouldn't buy a house, I'd ask to fly team AG out to do my place. 😊
The green/orange combo is very unexpected and goes together so well! Love it.
that coffee table is a piece of art. loved everything about this makeover. loved the colors, the details, the rugs, the KUMA CORNER!!!
No wonder they were pleased. This makeover looks great! A designers tip is to pull furniture away from the wall a couple of inches. It both prevents damage & the shadow gap tricks the eye into the room, seeming more spacious .
That table!!!!
I swear everyone is so talented it’s insane.
Applause, applause for Graham! Such an artist!
Graham blew me away. Amazing piece.
Graham outdid himself again! Beautiful results all the way around! My 16 year old furry friend, Radar, a Bichon/Shih Tsu combo looks like an older Kuma, slept through your entire presentation!
I really like Graham's drawings
Kuma’s happy reaction reminded me of my Max who passed away 😢 a year go. I loved this makeover.
Awww Kuma is sending you love ❤
...another work of art Graham..that coffee table can worth a thousands of dollars...creativeness × talent × ingenuity = CREATIVE GENUIS GRAHAM
Kuma is a DOLL!!! So cute! Love his little corner. 😘
The coffee table is da bomb! The amount of time and attention is insane! Plus! The remote holder insert - form and function!
Even though the fireplace was removed, which was flushed up against the wall, replacing it with a stand alone media console, which is out from the wall, taking up space, the area looks amazing larger(?) Roomier(?). WOW!!
Love the bar stools and color; I don't guess they even saw them during the filming as these never mentioned, but bet they will be well received.
It all looks so much bigger, prettier, fun and colorful. Another great job! Team AG!
Have a blessed day and a fabulous weekend/week!!
xxoo
Haven’t even finished the video but CUTEST COUPLE EVER and I love the brief, pet friendly decor is so useful!!
Awww thank you 🥹🤍
(For the couple part 😂)
Another amazing makeover! Choosing just a few key shades of paint and furniture made the space not only calm, but warm and vibrant. You guys seriously have a gift for creating spaces to fit your clients. Bravo!
Graham’s taking furniture building to a whole other level 🙌🏼
The room looks like rainbow sherbet.
Kuma's Corner is a Chicagoland restaurant that used to play really loud heavy metal and all their burgers/food are named after bands.
Id love to see you guys redo a space but with like a nature witchy vibe
Graham deserves an art show of his own for all his creations. Or a book a website to show case his beautiful handcrafted pieces. And Alexandra is looking extra beautiful in this video please share your glowup secrets😍
I absolutely feel amazed by what a creative mind Graham has and his equal ability to execute his vision well! Love this whole living room Team AG!!
Don’t understand how you’re not at a million yet?!??
The coffee table is next level. Graham is a wizard!
I think this is my favorite makeover to date!! I love the balance of color and pet friendly fabrics!
LOVE the orange sofa! I found your videos while I was going through a difficult break-up-move-out kind of situation and had to figure out how to make my new tiny studio apartment not feel miserable. I was inspired by your videos to really embrace the aesthetic that makes me happy, and for me that was bright colors, including an orange sofa :) it's a bold choice that's not for everyone but can really brighten up a space and and give it active energy. Keep doing what you're doing :D
The end result looked really nice, specially loved the coffee table. I did feel the colour Scheme was a off from what the clients wanted.
Thought I was the only one! They said not sharp bright colors, but rather soft colors with neutrals. Cheeto couch and hot pink table just need to be toned down and it would have worked.
OMG yay, Saturday is one of my busiest days and I love watching your vids in the evenings. It's my treat for the busy day.
I'm so excited to see you guys use Ikea items, as I use them in my home
Alexandra Gater has come a long way. Her work is just absolutely stunning. I get so excited when a new video comes out. 😍
19:01 gave me quite the jump 😅 i was so focused on graham sanding the coffee table
You banged it out of the PARK! It’s STUNNING!
The Kuma Photo was FABULOUS! & He looked so happy running around in the room.
That table! Sell it pls! customizable colors 😊 Graham is a gem
I love your makeovers and Graham's diy's so much I want a new video every Saturday
Another Graham brilliant design…. Love to watch him create stuff. It is obvious he is a gifted and experienced artist and craftsman and he loves it! Also loved how bright and clean and organized this space turned out. 🎉
Thankful you bought a cushion for Kuma!🥰🥰
Amazing makeover! That tray inside the table deserves a post in the account "things that fit perfectly". I'm obsessed with it!
Three words: Grown-up, fun and functional. Well done Team AG!
I was dubious about combining orange and pink but it looks super. It looks very cohesive and well thought out for comfort and practical use but is a real treat for the eyes. And Kuma's Korner is adorable. Kuma had no trouble at all recognizing that this was his place. Precious.
I just want to say that the chest with toys in the before footage melt my cold heart! Dana has a great job.:-) She seems genuinely caring and invested in what she does. ❤ And upon watching the whole video, this is a fantastic makeover! Doesn't seem to be the same room! So bright, cozy, and welcoming, it's superb. Graham is a freaking gem! The table is my favourite bit. Kuma looked so gorgeous in his nook. Well done, Team AG! James, great edit, as usual :-)
Awwww Kuma sends love back
I'd love a Graham in my life.
This was probably my favorite you’ve done! I think because it was YOUR style as the inspiration not someone else’s!
I'm so impressed with this. You did a beautiful job, Alexandra. Graham and everyone else, too.
Your designs are always amazing, but this one felt so true to your style too and was just so bright and fun and still warm and inviting. The before and afters really got me on this one - OBSESSED!
Absoutely AMAZING! Thank you so much Alexandra + Team AG. xoxo, Dana & Kuma
Dana, Where did you order the portrait of Kuma?
This turned out SO perfect for this little family of 3. The perfectly handcrafted table really came to life with the bar chairs! As usual, Team AG knocked it out of the park. I look forward to every video💓💓💓
Another perfect space. That pet corner is the literal definition of everything good in the world. PS. I got my outlet cover and holy ISH, I am in love. The quality of the cover can not be exaggerated! I need more, and I need to get my mom some, too! She's obsessed.
lol Kuma’s Corner is also a chain of metal-themed burger places in Chicago 🤣
Love this and all the content you guys make! Someone mentioned the intensity of the music and I totally agree… It’s *very* spritely and I find myself watching the content on mute with just the subtitles on, which isn’t as fun!
Graham is a king! It looks beautiful but I'm going to hit my knee on that locker under the TV every time I walk by
Stop It with this look!!!❤ The light switch cover are you kidding me😍😍😍
The colors are so soft. I wasn’t sure I was going to like it, but it’s very very beautiful. Cheers!
Your makeovers are the happiest, most joyful spaces on CZcams! Dopamine design! Love it!
One of my favourite makeovers and, considering how many mindblowing makeovers you've done so far, that is REALLY saying a lot. Well done, Team AG. So inspiring!
I am blown away at how creative Graham is! You are lucky to have him on your team!!
This apartment is the definition of Alexandra’s style.
That coffee table is amazeballs….i want one.
Coffee table is insane!!! Graham!! you are a champ!!!🤩
This was such a great living room makeover. The room just looks so much brighter and beautiful. It reminds me of a high fashion living room from same place like Palm Beach.
Kuma's corner & the couch are my favorite things. The design of the coffee table is great, but I hate the color. I'm sure this young couple will really enjoy their new space!
Graham’s coffee table is so cool - would love a natural stained wood
You look outstanding in French braids 👏👏👏👏
