A Spanish-Style Home Full of Color and Joy in San Antonio

www.houzz.com/ideabooks/555214...
Galeana Younger knew her 1920s home in downtown San Antonio, Texas, would have to be taken down to the studs, but she saw the potential underneath years of neglect. She gave the dated home a yearlong renovation with what she calls “unconditional love,” and the home is now full of color and whimsical touches that help many of the original features shine.
One of the things Younger likes about her home is how well it functions for her and her son. “I really think about the space and how I want it to function, and then I set out to find things,” she says. “I typically pool together lots of options before paring things down. Then I make sure my final selects tell a complete story.”

I literally fight with myself between living a minimalist lifestyle and then having an explosion of stuff all throughout the house

[@FrannieMaeB5150]

Omg the tiles! The mosaic floor!!! I've been watching "farmhouse" tours void of any personality and character. My faith in humanity has been restored. Thank you Houzz and Jesus for this artist! Omg it's so beautiful!!!!!

[@MESTER47]

with that impresive colection, dust cleaning takes a long time!

[@phyllisarrington7436]

my thoughts exactly. I just do not like to dust

[@BlackStorm555]

"Preserving the integrity of the house", is my favorite statement.😃

[@dishappywithlife2556]

Love her glasses 👓, it was fun; suits her and her personality

[@Cee1505]

So glad that you kept the mosaic tile floor , love it!

[@materialmedia2740]

She is my designer and my house looks nothing like this. She is a genius with color.

[@jasondownsnet]

Wow, just wow. I'm blown away. From the outside, you would never suspect the surprising inside. I almost didn't click on this video because it looked boring to me. But every room is a new treat. That walk in closet in such a cozy charming house. That game room, which is usually are just poorly decorated, was fun and beautiful. The bathrooms!!!!! The bathrooms!!! All the style makes it very feminine and fun, but the nod to the lucho libre wrestlers and the game room makes it masculine as well. Get out of here. Stop it. Just stop. Insane. I love, love, love this house.

[@veggiebowls6489]

Love it. A hidden gem in San Antonio!!

[@noeliagouty6858]

Lovely house, and I suppose it does reflect well the personality of the owner, but all I could think about is " I hope the cleaner gets a generous bonus!" :)

[@heidibee501]

Amazing what you CAN accomplish when you know how to mix colors, patterns and organizational skills well. This is a charming, warm and inviting home where no space is neglected or wasted. Just viewing it is a delight. I can only imagine how it feels to live there.

[@annabodhi38]

It's lovely and at the same time I can't imagine having to dust those shelves and what not. I'd go out of my mind, lol.

[@dianamurtaugh641]

This house has personality! I just love the floors, all the built ins, and of course the closet.

[@mphillips4387]

Awww @8:00 the funky tile floors! My first house growing up had these in the play room. I'd forgotten about them until I saw this. Your whole house is So fun!

[@aleksandrolkhovskiy4075]

One question I have: how much time need to clean house with so much decorations/details?

[@normaquintero3598]

I love this house. I come here and watch this video over and over.

[@moniqueirizarry7547]

I want to have margaritas with her. Plus we're from the same home town!

[@Dathan]

I love the classic architecture. She has a lot of stuff but that's her thing. I liked the tiles used and the kitchen.

[@GoGo-qi1yr]

..."Nice Organization to the Chaos"... very cool 😎👍

[@churchladyhugs]

Great house and her shoe game is pretty fantastic, too. 😍

[@dyutibasu4541]

I have six pairs of shoes. This closet astounds me. I love the cement tiles though. I like all of the floors actually.

[@kkay3784]

Everything about it is perfect. Perhaps for me a simpler version, not so much wonderful stuff, but the same color explosions. Just LOVE it. Thanks for being something so delightful and inspiring to stumble upon.

[@aimeeflores6971]

I've driven by that house many times! I always liked the outside, it's nice seeing how amazing & vibrant the home looks inside. Very cool!

[@frmoak2atl]

Personality Plus! love her style. Not boring by any means.

[@th3azscorpio]

Love Evert inch of this...Beautiful, colorful, and cozy. Her place looks like it smells really good inside, lol.

[@doriliriano2005]

[@yourstruly802]

I love her walk in closet it’s beautiful definitely on my bucket list❤️😊

[@jackiepeavy5505]

her bedroom & closet omg! ❤

[@CindymeCindy]

I love a galley kitchen like that...especially with so many windows. I would rather have the sink under the windows though, to give you something to look at while doing dishes.

[@variegatedyarns]

That closet!! The jewelry made me gasp. What a fun, personal home.

[@lauragwillim1055]

Love the architecture of the home and all those beautiful tiles. The closet is my dream!

[@godhams]

Lots of COLOUR everywhere!! So nice to see!! & REDS..which so many people STILL think is old fashioned & definitely to steer clear off! Ruby red..burgundy reds are all over my house & as soon as anyone comes in that hasn't visited before it's the same words "this is so cosy!!" (they Even say it when they have seen my home before!) Anyway LOVE u'r house!! Greetings from Malta 😎

[@JanetCaterina]

I loooove purple and green together. You got me with the green chest of drawers. I am thinking of spray painting my own cabinets now. I love wine and pink with lime green. I'm just like that.

[@pakistanigamer1069]

I want that room and that pink curtains. I love it

[@viviangautier2160]

[@jenhoney9741]

Nice home. Thank you.

[@sacdigitaldesignweb]

Decoration of a house is pure personal choice. I’m more curious about how an old rundown house becoming a gem of neighborhood.

[@patriciagurwitz509]

This is one Happy house!!! Love it, so much fun!

[@karenphillips140]

Fantastic home!

[@Mamazababe61]

Had to come and watch this video about Galeana Younger's home again! I love it!

[@andreawalker2535]

I am WOWed. Great design, and great house.

[@sandeepsandhu4286]

I liked the house but it did my head in ... imagine keeping that clutter clean ... :))

[@megibug]

OMG I would do anything for those killer original tile floors downstairs! Just a few more thoughts: I wish they’d include the square footage of these houses! And I love built-ins as much as anyone but I’m just wondering one word over and over..... DUST?!?!🥴

[@karenharvey2549]

I would love to stay there. Lots of fun.

[@lianecornils6603]

Timeless beauty.

[@herFLYness79]

😍💜 I absolutely love it!!! The tiles are amazing!!! And I get her vision of mixing patterns. It works.

[@connieh.4689]

What a fun, colorful home....I loved every corner and nook!!!

[@IsaDesOsiers]

I love absolutely everything about this space!

[@elsa_g]

Love that bedroom! The curtains make it, and a beautiful color scheme. I've never seen curtain treatments quite like it, it's both fun and squared off, a nice balance.

[@DM-mx5ns]

I live in San Antonio,TX. Love downtown ❤️

[@gisaguimaraes9897]

Loved the colors of the bathrooms. Beautiful!

[@TheFeelena]

Luv the basement more , the gorgeous tiles bathroom, the functional pull out shoe's shelves. Too many collectibles/ knock knacks whatever.

[@louisesuffolk]

This home is so kooky and I love it

[@onefeather2]

Absolutely love all the colors, the floors are fun and beautiful, everything has character. Well done.❤️❤️❤️

[@shreesthsingh6360]

amazing house , great enterenc. beautiful colour combination love to live in this house .

[@arijamil8782]

Absolutely beautiful..

[@lilacDaisy111]

Love everything except her furnishings/decor and tile choices. Beautiful house! I'd love to see it empty. We don't have Spanish houses like this in Australia, so they're fascinating to me. Dreamy details.

[@freelovedragon1417]

My long lost design twin!!!!

[@debbievanhorn6205]

Love your home...your closet is to die for along with all of the built-ins! But the show stopper is definitely the tile in your hallway (bath). Loved it! I’m a big fan of the SW, so your decorating style speaks to me. TFS your beautiful home.

[@rusliirawanri]

I do love your house

[@tammysandoval998]

Beautiful home ❤

[@jeng1395]

Accckkkk! It’s so much like my house, only so much better! I’ve got several Otomi pillows, and loved seeing them throughout your downstairs! Sadly, I don’t have the Mexican tile, but I have a few vinyl mats with a similar blue and white pattern. I also have four very colorful and glittery Mexican shrines I made for. Y deceased family members and lots of cool toys and vintage radios around the house, I LOVE living IN COLOR!

[@EdgarPerez-yv7et]

Beautiful home

[@rneustel388]

Treasure box!!

[@cynthiacarvajal4486]

OMG. I love it!!!!!! Great taste!!!!

[@tracydanielle5253]

Love it!!

[@MariaRodriguez-gb5pr]

I love her style

[@clarkclarke]

This is wonderful all you have done ...and contrary to all the comments about dusting I am sure you get it all done .... In a fun way ....💞

[@huub1989]

Loved that!

[@que2h.690]

I tend toward a more simplistic design esthetic...and when the video got to the bedroom I was shocked at first by the pink, really pink drapes, & then red pillows, patterned pillows, & green night tables, & purple carpet, & more patterns,....BUT the more I looked and assimilated it all together I became rather shocked by how it overwhelmed me, drew me in and totally won me over- Astonishingly ! Luv it !! Huh, how 'bout that ?

[@keantam1030]

those chair and sofa were well choice

[@vlogsbycaitlin3337]

Love your videos! Currently designing a Spanish style home in Arizona. Loving all the inspiration I can find here on KZbin.

[@aviewer390]

Love it! So many Otomi pillows!

[@cholatoaloha]

Love it all 👍🏼❤️🌺

[@ciganyweaverandherperiwink6293]

It's beautiful and fascinating from the outside-- nothing like what we'd have in the UK. The sideboard decoration & painting behind Ms Younger at 3:41 erases the horror that was the fabric choices that were put next to each other at 2:22. That upset my eyes. But it's her house: I'm just saying that I'd never approve of that in mine if a designer suggested it. I wonder if I was the only one that felt they clashed horribly? There was no balance, harmony or pleasant palette interaction (which can still be done with wild prints, definitely). A masterclass in mixing textiles, art and antiques would be Quintessence's video of Penny Morrison's country house. Other that my one unpleasant reaction, I really enjoyed this, thank you HouzzTV!
