From yellow-tinted trinkets to arty postcards, potted house plants to personal paintings, Alison Lloyd’s Hackney home is overflowing with collectibles. Or, in her words, “I’m a gatherer of crap,” the founder of Ally Capellino smiles, sitting next to a repurposed table she found in a park. “I pick up stuff that I can’t bear the thought of being thrown away.” Long-time readers might recall our first visit to Alison’s flat a few years ago, during which she described her interiors style as “organised clutter”. Much to our delight - and precisely why she’s a brilliant subject for our Seven Wonders series - that hasn’t changed. “I’ve got an emotional attachment to everything,” she says. In our latest film, we tasked her with selecting her favourite things from the many objects that fill her home.

The squirell running wild in the backround made me understand that this place doesn't get bothered by anyone except the owners... Warm, cozy and personal I would say. Just stunning.
Me altera ver el interior lleno de cachivaches😮
Someones trash is an other mans treasure dear :D @@mariamurillo825
That's not a home. That's a story. I'd love to hear more about all the pieces in her house -- very eclectic, but extremely well-curated.
wow I loved this concept. I want my house to be like a story book as well
nicely said!!!
I love her! She's shamelessly awkward and comfortable in her own skin at the same time. She has a fabulous sense of recognition of Joy that I inherently relate to on the basest of levels.
I was expecting to find a boring and tone deaf elitist designer's dwelling that I would give about 10 seconds time to but instead I hit full screen and found myself fighting between seeking for more treasures around her house and not wanting to miss a single expression of hers.
What a wonderful lady, thank you for sharing her experience!
I love her, we need more about this beautiful woman 💫 What a wonderful home!
"do angels paint?"
@@marniqueriley1136that part, lol. What a gem this woman is. She had me at hopping around with her backpack.
You know that a lot of planning and care went into creating such a warm and effortless-looking environment. That's art to me.
Beautifully said. Authentic style
I love homes that attract nature and animals. Watching that squirrel happily bounce along the fence in the background, the fish, lizards, and birds, just so blissful to watch :) 😃😍😃
Anyone else saw the squirrel running in the background at 1:19 ?
That was the highlight of the video 😅
I did, are squirrels a rare site over there? Good grief! they're so everyday life here, I have tons of peanuts on my fire escape because it's hours long entertainment of my cats. We have Earl the squirrel who thinks he's a tough guy....if we run out of peanuts he's banging on the window....he's sort of scary....
"Freedom inside a fairly formal framework" - I love that
I love this woman. She is intelligent, talented and appears to really take care of herself. What a successful woman she is. The garden to me is so cool. I would love a sunken pond with koi fish. Truly an inspiration. I will watch again and again.❤
This was a blessing to watch. What a beautiful personality she has. I would love to sit in her home and listen to her share her life stories all day long 😊
Her home is earthy, beautifully curated and simply warm and inviting. Thank you for sharing her home with us. 🤍
Used to live right above Ally in this apartment building. She's so interesting, creative and lovely! Her house and style is truly amazing
"A gatherer of crap." I like that a lot! :)
I love Alison's aesthetic..and her humble, unpretentious attachment to loved objects...
What a beautiful woman and such a soulful home and garden ❤
Such a wonderful, playful human! I love how she kept giving a side eye to the rest of the crew :D
I absolutely love this home! I'm a design student and I relate to collecting tiny artwork and bits of paper everywhere :))
The squirrel, the squirrel! Guys did you see it ? That's one of the things I miss from England!😢
Wow, she is amazing - the beauty of her character is so present in her surroundings. Truly inspiring.
Saved this one because you just can’t appreciate it all in one viewing!
1:19 you can see a squirrel running on the fence in the background 😊
Such a great house! Everything has a story and is so eclectic and meaningful.. Really lovely! 🧡💙💜
Love everything about this lady and her fascinating home…what a JOY!
Such a lovely woman, with a warm calm humour. Love her cosy home and the meaningful details.
Loved this, and the comment about Freedom within a structure ; very relatable (I thinks it’s a definition of Jazz, too), and makes the difference between collections and clutter - her bookshelves, the postcards on the slim shelves
i absolutely adore this humble, charming style goddess's vibe. would like to see the house in total and also her wardrobe and hear her thoughts on her personal style. am sharing this gem of a clip with friends here in new zealand. thank you.
Love her! She is very playful ! She reminds me of my granddaughter that collects stuff! ❤️❤️
Such a delight! The type of person who i'd like to spend time with, in a home full of love and treasures.
Love her!!! So stylish yet completely humble and lovely
what a beautiful person.
I'm mad or this garden; this is genius! Curated variables -Spectacular! SO glad it came to me...
A flicked twig! A “grouper” what a delightful soul!
Thanks. , the twig is flocked, like velvet.
How completely refreshing. I fully enjoyed that just wish it could have been longer. Thank you
I love her and her home
Ooohhh that’s the founder of the brand Ally Capellino! I used to ❤❤❤ her bags. So well made and designed
such a beautifully decorated space of stories and a lovely soul. I'm obsessed, convinced me to put my knick-knacks on display!🥰
LOOOVED this visit, a girl after my own heart!
What a beautiful, interesting and creative woman! I loved your home and felt I would be so happy to be there. Good on you.
I could have listened to much more of Alison talking about her home's lovely contents and their significance to her. She has fine eye and her house is beautifully understated and shows real soul.
Such a soulful home and garden! Nothing contrived or posing about it. Just pure self-expression and love.
Those unexpected objects can make instant surprises. 🥰✨
I love her home! Best of all, it is lived in like a person and not cleaned up for show like celebrity homes are.
i loved that she collects a few simple things, how lovely
Love your home. Full of wonderful objects and art. Memories and love. It’s a beautiful home
Very pretty. I am sick of all these beige nightmare homes. I need colour and knick knacks too. Love it.
I had a similar table in my first apartment as I was to poor to afford a decent table. I now live in a grand house and cant find a suitable large table that says come enjoy dinner and chat for hours. All the luxury dining tables are hard and pretentious. I love your repurposed table. fantastic collection love them all.
I love her personality and I love her home. It's filled with stories.
What a charming lady, a bit like an elf. Love her!
Oh you own such an adorable taste and way! Thank you for sharing your view on life and things.
Beautiful soul! Love her art collection and her home.
i truly love her for this sense of humor and lightness. must have been a funny, crazy girl back then to hang out. shes still beautiful, she could be my mother 😂 😊
Love to see happy souls sharing with us ❤
Enchanting from start to finish, both indies and in the garden. (And yes, angels draw.) Thank you!
I’ve found my aspirational version of perfection. Thank you for sharing ❤
I love this woman and her beautiful world. She is so alive! So intelligent... and fun.

I would buy the odd piece from her shop in Wardour Street in the early 90s. It closed and Pret took it over and destroyed the interior
