this time all designs were great but Becky's karaoke basement scratched every itch that I have. the muted pink, the shapes, the images on the walls, art nouveau elements. please continue this series indefinitely, it's one of those I drop everything to watch immediately.
The only element that is missing is the cost of each makeover! It's a shame not to include the cost of each element with a total cost
While I love this series and how they’re allowed to go crazy, I’d love to see a series where they have a hypothetical client!
this idea seems fun but I love when they just do what they want and show us how far their skills can go 😭
Nooo every other show has clients!
That’s what other shows are for
Maybe not a client, but a more realistic constraint like you couldn’t move or take out the windows or move the vents in this example. It’d be more realistic for what people could actually do with their own spaces.
@Kevin Kroll, in one of the videos… one of the designers confirmed that they’re not allowed to remove walls.
Love this series so much. Haven’t missed an episode. This time, I most love Becky’s karaoke lounge. It’s exquisite!
Same! Love these series
Becky wins this challenge for me!! Courtney's piano lounge was a too busy of a visual trip, clashing walls and carpet, with the wrong color piano, she should have went with a black piano, and Sasha with the fabric ceiling made the room look claustrophobic, just my opinion!!
That tented ceiling also blocks the vents. Those vents are probably important. I thought Becky’s ceiling treatment also blocked them, but noticed in the final rendering that she did expose them.
Fully agree. I adore Becky's design and can see myself in that room. I like all the elements of Courtney's but not together. I feel physically ill just looking at Sasha's - I wouldn't be able to go in that room without falling over and/or throwing up
Idk who allowed courtney in this series seriously
@jacquelynteethank you I thought I was the only one who felt that way about Sasha’s room 😭 it’s very unsettling for some reason
I LOVED Sasha's room. Wow
I am obsessed with Becky’s design. I want a karaoke room now, wow 🤩
Hey, now. We're house hunting... I'll have to find one with a finished basement ☺️
Becky’s design made the room feel so much bigger!! Looked like a hotel lounge! As for the other two… Sasha’s looked like a secret swingers club. And Courtney’s… Ooooof. ˙◠˙
Wow how were you able to add that emoji / sad face?
I loved Sasha's and I don't think it has to be like that? I mean it looked awesome. LOVED the walls and the lights. So cool.
It's nice that they charge up the designers, but I REALLY miss seeing Noz and Darren's ideas 🥰
People were saying to stop putting Darren on the show and I never liked Noz’s designs 😭
Who saod stop putting Darren on the show? 😮 He did the best designs! I love him!
@Baluvideo idk I liked his designs too but people were just commenting that on his last video. Maybe because they used him a lot and people wanted more designers
@David people are strange. 🤷
becky's basement design is EVERYTHINGGGGG i love it so much
Becky's karaoke basement was the clear winner here! Interesting to see everyone's vision for this room though.
I liked Becky's but I thought Sasha's had true night party vibes. It was awesome! Becky's looked like it could also be used midday
Well done Becky. It’s unique, dramatic, memorable and neutral.❤❤❤❤
Sasha’s space is visually stunning and luxurious but still feels cozy. I want to go to there! Sasha this is my favorite room I’ve ever seen in this series. It’s warm, inviting, and super dramatic. Cool basement!
I agree! It's amazing!
We will always support this channel. They're incredible at what they do.
Each one is fabulous and wonderful! Courtney's works best for me, because she kept the windows, which reduces my claustrophobic feelings about the other two. I wonder why none of them enlarged the windows?
That was my initial idea too, but I'm guessing that the instructions were that because it's a basement, the assumption is the windows go down to the ground and therefore are immovable. Sort of like how they wouldn't let Becky knock down a wall in the galley kitchen episode.
Becky's design is EVERYTHING
Becky’s design was flawless!
The best of them all, for sure.
I love Becky Carter's design!
Yep, me too 👍🏾🇬🇧💙
All so different and fun. Loved the vibes on Becky Carter's stylish, sophisticated creation until the very end (the chrome disco ball). But, all-in-all, beautiful attention to detail.
There were elements I liked with all of the designs. Each is unique and doable. But Courtney is just so pleasant and likeable and so is her design.
I really love Betty's take on this room. It looks and feels its like a movie set its just amazing
I'd go for Becky's design! It's so well balanced.
This was definitely a "trust the process" moment, but all three of them turned out with lovely spaces!!
Lovely nightclub/bar/lounge designs. I think it's interesting that they all went with that type of space and none of them went with what would be considered a rec room, but at least all their party spaces were fun.
Mariah would love that room! As always I love hearing the 3 different approaches. Really great experience for the us the viewers.
i honestly loveddddd Sasha's design, i feel like the colored lights and the plants went so well together, it reminds me of a shisha club
all three are impressive but Becky did an outstanding design that captures all of the possibilities of this space
Wow usually I have a clear favorite or don't like at least one of the designs - but this time - they were all fabulous!! Also interesting how Becky and Sasha both had rainbow and discoball inspirations but displayed them in different ways.
Of the three interior designers' designs I have to say that I like Becky's design. Thanks again, designers.
I love this series because as designers they deal with clients all day - so this shows more of a true expression into who they are
Suggestion: for each room give them a tiny bit of context - people, apartment, location. For example: young couple, 2 bedroom apartment, city center.
It would instantly make their designs more comparable with each other, and we could enjoy the different approaches and design ideas for the same room.
Love the show :)
BECKY'S ROOM!!!?!?!?!?! HELLOOOOOO!!!! It's amazing! I. absolutely love everything about it. The colors, the ceiling, the bar, the STAINED WINDOW!!! At first I was iffy about the wall design with the dancing figures but it looks incredible. I live for this room, I love this room. 10/10. Bye.
I love the pink room! It's so ethereal and looks like a painting, you'd forget you're in somebody's basement!
One of the best episodes yet! Love the direction they all took
Sasha's mirrored walls and the ceiling, just everything is super imaginative!
Really loved this one. Everyone did an amazing job!
I think a lot of people are not used to having imagination so they can’t see beyond a 1,2,3 mindset (despite what they may think) when allowed to go fill *creative* most people stick with what they’ve seen.
I like that Courtney really goes for it, it’s also interesting that people didn’t have a problem with Darren or Noz did similar things when a bunch of patterns and colors but when Courtney does it suddenly stuff is too busy…
you can't compare noz and darren to her. Their styles are completely different just because they use colors, doesn't mean that they share the same style. Their designs are out of this world and their imaginations are really wild
Plenty of people hated Noz's designs. lol
@Joanna Dion a lot of people loved it too
This is the first time I've love all 3 designs equally. Great Job.
Uhhhh…..these are all VERY creative😳. I was hoping for some greenery, soft lounge decor, bright (larger windows) space, maybe an area for crafting😅
Sasha's room is very overwhelming for me & triggers my anxiety. Does the fabric tent on the ceiling cause a fire hazard being so close to the light fixture?
Becky's room is super cool! I don't like the actual images on the wall, I do like the design overall.
I love the colors in Courtney's room it seems the most functional.
i agree with everyone in the comments that the karaoke room is definitely the winner for me
i could do without the light fixtures on the walls and the disco ball honestly but everything else feels so grand and luxurious and also just fun and exciting
For the first time in a while, all 3 designers created something unique and beautiful instead of something so outlandish it made me think, "they can't be serious." I actually can't choose a favorite...I like them all! Each had a beautiful and unique charm. I could see myself doing karaoke in each of these rooms. In one room I'd lounge in that sunken couch area, in another I'd dance on the raised platforms around the walls, in another I'd play the piano and have a drink on that gorgeous beige tufted couch. All 3 designers did an amazing job! Congrats! Thank you for finding people with believable styles that appeal to most people instead of a select few.
Great combination of designers and beautiful rooms!
They all did so well, so much creativity 🙌
What would be your dream line-up for this series? I would love to see Darren, Becky and Noz got head to head. 🎖️🏆🏅 (Not that it's a competition or whatever... 😜)
To me it reads more lux speakeasy than karaoke bar, but Becky once again knocks it out the park!
All three are very strong looks! Too strong? I think Becky Carter's karaoke room was the most successful partly because she had a clear idea of how the room would function. Becky had the idea 'me and my friends' where the others went to one celebrity client. It felt complete to me before the sconces and hanging ball went in but everything in there worked together like it belonged together. Perhaps the lamps are different. Becky and Courtney McLeod both got the idea of how you could be in different places in room (standing, seated). I like Courtney kept the windows because, well, as an apartment dweller natural light is not easily tossed aside. Courtney's space is flexible on this front as well.. you wouldn't feel too insane sitting in there in the daytime with a book or a friend.
Karaoke room is so Beautiful and Harmonious, just about perfect imo...maybe without the big lamp but otherwise.... I´m impressed by her style for this room....it makes me think of cruise ship interior designing, or scenography...
i love how they all really went for it!
Very elegant ideas about furniture 😊
What creative, beautiful designs!
Becky's design is the best. Soft colours, perfect decor, simple but still making a statement.
Becky's karaoke room is perfection its elegqnt cohesive fresh id live in there and sasha's luminuous pieces are gorgeous
Sasha’s one is truely amazing ✨ the archizoom sofa fits perfectly in this room
Becky, Becky, Becky! I love how she made it unique, comfortable, bright, and enjoyable.
This series better than whole internet combined. ❤
I need Sasha too give me some ideas on how to do A roof like the one she did in her design. Loved it.
That was really cool! This is the first time I have liked all three designs.
courtneys room is so underrrated the room is so cohesive at the end when you really look at it
These rooms are all fabulous
Becky’s design is as iconic as she is!!! I’m in love 😍
AD’s strongest trio by FAR. not one of them has missed imo
I live in an apartment but I need becky to build me a basement asap like it's just such an amazing gorgeous cozy space
I NEED MORE OF THESE!!!!! I’m obsessedddd!!!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
I need to experience Becky’s lounge in real life 😍😍😍
I like that this video was about creating THEIR dream basement rather then one meant to be more universal like other videos
Can't really fault any according to my tastes - except perhaps that a grand piano, baby or otherwise, can be in any color so long as it's black - but I pin the ribbon on Becky Carter's design. Plus she has fabulous nails. 💖
@Anne Smith Ha ha! "One man's fish.." you know.
I love this series, AD!! Keep them coming!
Becky's is the one for me! Gorgeous!
We need Becky and Darren in one episode!
I loveeeee the lounge with the piano! Absolutely beautiful
Shame of you youtube for not having this front and center in my recommended!! So excited for another episode!!
That Karaoke Room took the cake for me. So whimsical, yet mature and cohesive. It's my kind of clown show.
Wow, I really love all of these!
i LOVE when arch digest goes live!!
I LOVE THIS SERIES SO MUCH
Love love this series ❤❤❤❤❤
I would have loved to see a children’s indoor playground for rainy days :) or something like a workout space. I personally prefere to meet people outside, at my balcony or in the kitchen
i want beckys room!! & i loved sashas when it was just the ceiling & the mirrors lol
that karaoke bar is TREMENDOUS, love this series.
finally a basement! I can grab some inspiration. 😊
I freaking LOVE this series n people ❤❤❤❤
Wow. All of them, super groovy!
Love Becky design, the walls turn prety. Love the color choice.
I love Becky's karaoke basement, i think it has a bit of a secret spot on the house to have fun with friends. Courtney piano bar it's cool and chill and relax , at first I thought it would be great fir a bookclub but then i change my mind, with that 1920s vibe and art deco. Sasha when all in , it's a fun , futuristic and enthusiastic place to club
Can you please have Darren, Mandy and Laura on the same designer video....PLEASEE❤
Becky won hands down. Courtney’s design a distant second. Sasha made me think of a 70’s key party because of OPEC…
Lol
A lot of people will miss the humor here. Lol
I love Sasha but I can't be the only one that thinks the ceiling fabric looks a bit like a certain anatomical area.
you are not alone
😂
🍑🍑🍑
You're not the only one... I still love the idea of the ceiling, but I don't think the rest of the room compliments it well enough.
I agree. Also, the amount of dust that would collect on that fabric ceiling and the cleaning of it would be horrible.
"The only thing you want to put in a basement is your skeletons... so let's make a space where we can party with them." LOVE HERRRR
Becky's is my favorite. Love it but the only thing I don't like is the wallpaper.
Becky’s karaoke bar is the room that I never knew I wanted! 😍😍😍
Ok. I really wish we had a bananna for scale at the beginning. I was under the impression that the room was way smaller (mostly by the size of the ducts/vents).
She's back! I love Becky. I was thinking of her galley kitchen for days after.
Lov the karaoke room, it was so creative and definitely more my style
That Karaoke Room would’ve been perfect but without windows, it’s kinda scary. Windows for me is everything!
becky’s karaoke basement is lovely 👌🏼👌🏼
I need a house with 3 basements now... a blooming trumph ladies :)
"The only thing you want to put in a basement is your skeletons, so let's make a space where you're gonna party with them"
"I party with my skeletons" needs to be a t-shirt NOW!!
I'm not sure I have enough class for any of these! 😊
Sasha, hands down. Only thing I would swap is her ceiling lighting fixture and replace that with a disco ball. I would never leave the basement!! Becky's basement and what she did with those walls is the stuff of nightmares. Courtney needs to see her eye doctor ASAP.
No opinion on which I like best, just wanted to say this helps me remember to trust the process.
AMEI TODOS!!!!
