I get the sense he wants to impress himself and not anyone else! Very refreshing! Fabulous collection and the decor amazingly perfect.
The green block painting!
Beautiful and yet his home looks so welcoming and filled with life!
I'm not sure what I enjoy more, the art or the sound of your voice..my goodness!!!
Right?! OMG, such a LUXURIOUS voice and home lol!
that green painting above his mantle is jaw droppingly gorgeous! his aesthetic and taste is beyond impeccable. an unerring eye.
I'd have one too if it were within my budget.
I’d buy his voice- a work of art in itself😍
I agree
This guy has a collection very much my own taste. Love it.
This guy would make an awesome narrator.
Art is where you find it. In that sense it is priceless.
What a deep voice! You can't say no to this guy.
LMAOOOO
True. I was thinking the same thing- deep voice with an accent.
@@revanelson8810 doesn't every person have an accent ?!!
😂
I don't swing that way.
So seemingly humble and understated.I am referring to the urbane gentleman. Yet...........this bold house speaks loudly of a powerful personality behind it.
Mesmerizing voice. Dreamy interiors. What a concoction!
his home is so extremely elegant and soothing
Love his clean balanced subtle style.
I adore this. His home is full of color and texture. The art is sublime. I am sick of austere blank canvases with no story.
I like what Mr. Mackie said about learning about an artist but that it's more important to learn about yourself.
Learn what you like, not what's trendy.
His art buying advice is on point.
ive found the best way to collect, is to by for the heart as well as the eye. If it cost £5 OR £5 MILLION , buy ti because you love it and want to live with it .
zanyzoo6767 yes 👌🏼
Living with art is transformational! It truly is a spiritual, healing process that one relishes in daily and frankly cannot live without. I understand this fully and thoroughly enjoyed his presentation.
Què razòn tenès Abel! Habrìa que proponer que los gobiernos proveyeran casas asì a todo el mundo para transformar la vida de los que no las tienen, yo por ejemplo. Aunque ahora con la plan-demia del coronabritànica estàn muy ocupados.....
He has a great deal of wisdom and practical good sense to impart. Much appreciated.
I hope to have a Henry Moore drawing casually hanging near my refrigerator one day as well.
Exactly! Why not?
Truly stunning. I felt as though I was in one of my philosophy books and reading the sentences over and over and over... to make sure I absorbed as much meaning as possible... of course also made mental notes. What a brilliant artist.
Surprise!! Lovely design
I loved it very much!!!It was a pleasure to this!!!!!!
I feel so posh after this
ja isto, his taste is incredible. Baš ima dobar style!!
It’s all in how one views one’s self.
What a beautiful house and taste!!🌹
Definitely a favorite designer. Great with color and composition.
Love everything in his house and his drawings are perfect!
Brilliant Philosophy.....not what but how, art should be embraced and resonate with surroundings, and other pieces. In my mind....the cladding of ones soul.............
His style is exactly what I love ❤️
His voice is everything!!!
Fact is art like decor and fashion are very subjective, "to each his own", it shouldn't matter if others are unable to appreciate the choices of others. Confidence of one's choices and confidence in themself is all that's required.
Fabulous collection and the decor amazingly perfect.
Beautifully done!
A very wonderful, insightful, thought provoking presentation.
Thanks!🙏
Stunning work, very talented
Thank you, it is about "Taste" and "Experience"
Y nacer en un environmente lo suficientemente luxurious and wealthy como para por lo menos haber visto algo parecido. El 90 % de la gente en el mundo jamàs ha entrado en una casa asì y ni se la imagina.Como tampoco imaginan que un piso en Parìs pueda costar seis millones de euros. Como yo tampoco puedo imaginar cuànto es esa suma....màs que pensar que "es mucho"
incredible space. every room beautiful. amazing art and design. luv luv
...His voice is soooo seductive and mesmerising. It makes me sleepy
Unintentional ASMR :):)
I'd be too sleepy to be seduced.
Gives Me Chubb......
I feel sorry for his students (unintentionally falling asleep in class).
Or maybe youre just tired🤔
Similar to my collecting taste.. wonderful
Beautiful home! Love it 💕
Mounting the corpus on a piece of plexiglass or Perspex, now that’s something I think I can do with my 18th century bronze corpus that’s been in a drawer for years. Thanks for the inspiration.
Shareing Culture is Noble in evry way ! Thank you Mister !
Enjoyed! Thank you.
Your house is exquisite. Thank you very much for sharing.
Screw rule books! “Ultimately it’s to do with taste”….love that.
I don't understand the comments on the paintings. They are beautiful
I love the crucifix ❤️
Sage advice we can apply to all of life’s experiences
very nice...had to watch twice.
His air and "collection" are the epitome of smart.
Yo dirìa sensibilidad ya que smarts hay muchos pero...
@@mariavairo1640 In this regard I believe they mean it in the English sense....sharp...attractively neat and stylish.
Love your taste. There is something unique about it.
I love this guy.
Audiobooks with that voice (something like Of Human Bondage, for example) and you will be stuck in your chair for hours. Impeccable taste.
Good lord !!! Just seeing snip-it's of this guy's portfolio of work, I can tell he's way above others in talent. He's definitely the designer of designers... Or ? is it... The designer for designers ? Oh well, whatever ! He's just the BEST !!!
That was an apartment I could love. Suited my preference and likes...
I've been reading and watching interior design shows, magazines, and books for more than 30 is the first experienc
The greats developed their vision and style by hand drawing everything...
no, not always, not always at all.
One word ..gorgeous
His voice is amazing
i love interior designing...
I have always liked the idea of two dimensional and three dimensional pieces being displayed together for variety and for continuity.
These people are on another level...i never understand abstract painting, nor do i understand keeping weird statues without body head and without hand.
And this man has great taste
Absolutely!!!
Love that orange couch
Very interesting eye and attitude..very soothing man
I want his voice to introduce a 90's RnB ballad. Yass vocal zaddy!
Beautiful!
Class! Pure class -
Good! Sensible conversation.
What an interesting guy. I’d definitely be interested in him doing up my place if I had a big house.
I appreciate the comment, about drawing.
Merci, Douglas! Delicious...
Yo podrìa vivir en una choza en medio del campo y estar bien, pero què orgàsmico ver tanta belleza!!! Impecable equilibrio! Y encima don Douglas habla INGLES ! no yankee, asì que le entieeeendo! Merveilleux!!!!
Eu gosto deste lindo estilo
Like!.. Art for me is an expression and a unique way to see the world throughout the medium used and reflects the painter views in visual effects .... Sometimes even hiding dark secrets ;)
I’ve often told my wife - whether it be antiques or garments - the outfit of the day…I genuinely since a young age wanted to do it for pure joy and not to signal or court attention. It’s true joy - that’s it. Authentic and real.
Thank You
Decor is superb, the paintings, no thank you.
absolutely agree!
I've watched decorators over many years.....they can do magic with furniture but never with paintings and real art.....they constantly fail to forget about colour, texture and other decorators tools, instead of seeing the art work itself.
😂I thought I’m the only one.
the paintings are personal. he likes it, it sparks something inside so that is all the matters. art an objective, personal experience.
@@seficurada4375 Agree!!!!!, porque en los comentarios anteriores supongo que haràn combinar el cuadro con los colores de los sillones....
paintings absolutely stunning, unique and on point. some of the best art and paintings I've ever seen.....every room steeped in class, style. fantastic. BTW, most certain your taste is to be cough, cough, desired.
I'm drawn to finding creative ways to get my pension to feed my wife and I the whole week
Besito sin coronavirus desde Argentina
Love it !
What is the painting app he is using on his pad?
i like the way he is dealing with middle life crisis
Wish there was more....
Such good taste
A life well lived
Bello muy bello.
He could start a career in doing voice overs for documentaries.
Amazing
Awesome
A lot of stuff but it works and blends well.... a beautiful home.
Ps I feel sorry for the poor cleaner or cleaners because that place would be a nightmare to keep up
SG R you don’t care about cleaning when you are this rich
Wish I had the money I'd be more interior designy
what is the musical theme that plays in the beginning?
Great thak you.
His voice sounds like his apartment
Very impressive and interesting. He has assembled things cleverly and courageously.
I could have done without the background music which was irrelevant and unnecessary, and at times intrusive.
What a smoothie
The instrumental music in the beginning please?
Impeccable eye,....
Cool!!
His voice reminds me of barry White
