Even though it’s beautiful, as an artist myself I cannot understand how she wanted the place darker. I need all of the light possible, I think she didn’t think of that. The reference photos all had a window next to the desk, that's why it worked, but this doesn't have any direct light. But I love the storage.

I’ve been a professional painter for almost 20 years. You’re rolling ceilings all wrong. Don’t go front to back, roll left to right instead, walking backwards as you roll. You’ll be able to reach twice as far going side to side, with significantly less chance of straining a muscle because you really aren’t stretching at all. Plus the paint splatter won’t be going right over your face and hair, it’ll be a foot or so in front of you. By walking backwards as you roll, you’ll have a perfect view of the paint you just applied, it’ll be easy to see any dirt, paint skins or ridges. And you’ll never pass under the roller, so you’re less likely to get paint in your eyes. You should also start with the ceiling (think top-down approach, like you would for dusting/cleaning). That way if there’s drips on the walls, you’ll fix them as you go without having to go back and redo things Usually we bring two sizes of extension pole as well, a 3-6’ for walls and a 5-10’ stick for ceilings. You get better control (read: less ridges) with the longer stick. Plus the longer stick is actually less tiring since you can keep both hands below shoulder height. Might not be worth it for a small project, but if you roll any decent sized ceiling you’ll definitely appreciate the longer stick

I'd like to hear Grahame narrate his own projects. Since he's the designer it sometimes feels like you're repeating what he told you to say. Painting tip - when you are working over your head, wear a cap and safety goggles :) On camera, the colour reads as oxblood. I think for me, it would be too much dark to work by, but it looks very dramatic. I think I would have chosen a more terra cotta tone, or tried to brighten some of the space with a lighter colour (maybe a paler pink-er version of the colour on the ceiling, some white trim or desk top, etc.). I would choose bolder lighting (though I love the wall sconce), and added a mirror to bounce light. I would not be able to work facing the dark pegboard or wall. It's hard to tell from the video, but I wonder if the desk could have been placed in the opening of the space to face the room?

Very creative storage spaces but a cluttered desk doesn’t have much room for larger pieces. Also she asked for two moveable lamps to shine on her work in opposing directions. You need strong task light sources to prevent shadows

Exactly, that was the only thing missing. But since the other lights are not hardwired and the tasklight is from ikea, she can easily just get another one (or two if she needs?) and mount it on the pegboard. I'm sure she'll be able to figure this one out, should be an easy fix! On that note she will probably reorganize the supplys to her needs (high traffic closest etc.) but that's the best part of this design in my mind because of the easily adjustable system

She also said she liked maximizing her art table so i dont think she will like having that little ikea drawer taking up space on her art desk.

The artist herself didn't want white walls. But I agree the lighting was an absolute miss. I think part of the problem is the decorator might be choosing from lighting options she was given. Not all of the walls and the pegboard should be all one color. One accent wall in the deep color and others in a complementary very light color. Using blonde wood or naturally stained light wood also would have made it less dark. In the end, the decorator's first priority, is what the client wants. EDIT: I commented BEFORE I knew she painted the ceiling the dark color too. Dark and moody is NOT DUNGEON DARK. Sorry this was a fail. She went too far with the paint and NO real lighting. It will take several coats of white paint on ceiling alone. Kinda sad.

Wow. All the light is on the other side of the room anyway. What amazing windows! I can see why the nook seemed a good choice to store stuff, but it was too dark even with the white walls. I think it makes a great storage area and I love what Alexandra did but I'd load up the trolly with whatever I needed for a particular project and take my painting stuff out into the main room and sit at a table near the window anyway. I would love that as a storage area (she says looking at all the pots of pens, pencils, brushes etc scattered all over he place) 😂😎

I love how everything was perfectly arranged in here, but as everyone else stated. Me, as an artist, as other artists have pointed it out, I do want natural light to actually show me the true colors I’m working with for my art. And then I can have colored walls, but other than that. This reddish brown would give me a headache, cause the light plus the color is just a perfect recipe for tiring my eyes and give me a migraine. I’d have gone honestly with the blue or green she wanted from the pics if I had to choose a moody color anyway. But I learned a lot of how I want to redo my studio 💕
@LeslieStroz

This space provides lots of useful storage space. But that wall colour won’t work for an artist. The three dark green photos the client showed (or a neutral mid-gray) are what she needs to be able to paint without colour bias. She will also need to add two lights designed for artists (like she requested) to be able to accurately see her work in a realistic way.

Hey Team AG, this was a great makeover. Your team always kills it. I’ve been bingeing your vids for like a week now cause I’m hooked…however, partnering with Better Help is not a cute look. There are so many allegations, testimonies and controversies against the company that are not hard to find at all and it is ridiculous to still see so many youtubers partnering up with them. It cheapens your ethos because you’re either not looking into these companies or you don’t care. Hope you take this into consideration!

I worked on fairly large residential and landscape projects, (none were as charmingly small as yours) and Jan Moyer was my employer and mentor before I branched out on my own. Gave it up in the 90s. Recently found your channel and I’m captivated by your ingenuity and creativity. Your makeovers are splendid and bring so much joy to your clients but also to viewers of these videos. Kudos to you and Graham, and to your whole team-you’re BRILLIANT! 🎆 🙏

Looks fabulous. It's my favourite makeover that you have completed ever. Could you please include this makeover in your next book? I can relate to Yasmine 💯. I'm glad that you provided Yasmine with extra pegs and shelves. I would hang up the ladder and the Ikea storage box, though. This will create more space for her to move around. Great job, Team A.G.😀👏🎨

This is gorgeous AND so functional! The only improvement I could see is putting the watercolours on a tray so they can all be pulled down together otherwise pure perfection ❤

Alexandra, I love that you made this a dark room. From viewing this video, I realized that I work better on things I need to really focus on at night with a task light. You have inspired me to consider changing my office/craft room from white to a darker color!

Dear Alexandra, I love that spark in your eyes, when you are standing in the middle of a bare room and can already see what you are going to turn it into. 😊

I really love how this turned out- im an artist and so many studio makeovers are not very functional or are too focused on aesthetics instead of storage. This is not only pretty, but really functional and full of storage. I like some of these ideas for my own place. Great job Team AG!

Wow! I didn’t know I wanted a new desk until I saw it! I have been lusting after the IKEA pegboard for my creative space & I will be stopping by get it. That color was like a chameleon from the first viewing to the reveal. I may need to check it out IRL too. Another stunner Team AG!!👏🏻👏🏻😍

I usually love everything you love. One thing she asked for was two lights. Two task lights to light work so no shadows. What did you give her? A cute sconce which does nothing with yellow bulb. And a clip on lamp. You are an artist you know white day light bulbs. Geesh.

Thanks for the inspiration! Converting two closets, one for crafts, the other for sewing. I recently bought inexpensive 2' x 4' white pegboard from Menards. Love what Graham did 100% more. With my spider phobia I would spray the back with essential oils that repel them, though. I can't paint the wall, but can paint the pegboard. Be aware that those dark horizontal shelves, etc. will show dust in a matter of days. Worked in a kitchen showroom and had to wipe dark countertops 2x a day! If I was her, I would put a slim storage tower in the space where you put the rolling cart. Beats climbing on a stool, and wouldn't block the sprinklers or that ceiling vent. Wish you installed better lighting like the scissor lamp in her inspo photo, but understand it may have been too costly or unavailable in time. Drafting lights would be an inexpensive option she could add herself. Is that table tall enough to draw while standing? Be sure to check out how high of a work surface you need before replicating this idea. I have a hole kit for locks/ doorknobs and definitely want to make the jar storage shelf! I already have my ribbon spools on dowels. Keep your tapes in air-tight containers if you don't use them up quickly. That's why masking tape goes bad. Same for rubber bands and erasers.
