What a chic, gifted man. His home is just exquisite. This one was such a joy, thank you so much for seeking out these hidden aesthetes out there creating magic for us to be inspired by. More maximalists, eccentrics and collectors please! Love love love!

[@quintessenceblg]

Thank you SO much - so glad you enjoyed our visit with Eric!

[@diogenes7047]

Always a delight to watch a new episode of Quintessence. Eric has such beautiful collections! Can't wait to visit Timothy's chateau!

[@quintessenceblg]

Thank you!! He does indeed!

[@angelicaspeyer7385]

Very elegant home, every corner is a treat for the eyes. You can tell by his taste that he is a very well educated man with great knowledge and passion. Definitely one of my favorite Quintessence video.

[@quintessenceblg]

So glad and yes he is!!

[@meemz7098]

Wow!!!❤ That dinnerware and those floral arrangements were exquisite. His home was lovely. Like a well curated museum. Thank you.

[@quintessenceblg]

Our pleasure!

[@anapuello8871]

A generous, disciplined and talented artist and collector. There’s so much richness but cannot be called maximalist, it feels everything has its rightful place and pattern to avoid overwhelming the eye..perfection.

[@quintessenceblg]

Thank you for your perceptive comment!!

[@annieburgos805]

Video was too short!! Wish we could’ve spent more time with Eric Goujou! Genius!

[@forestfields]

Just wonderful! It's always a good day when Quintessence posts a video.

[@quintessenceblg]

Thank you!

[@dianegriffith3006]

Oh I’m in such awe. His touch on everything beautiful kept me mesmerized for sure. I could have stayed there for hours consuming every art piece - like a gallery/ museum. He has exquisite taste. Thank you so much.

[@quintessenceblg]

Our pleasure and we agree! 🙏🏻

[@oltedders]

Oh my! This is the most restrained collection we've seen on your channel. Everything is so light and airy.

[@beiderbecke1927]

I'm usually not fond of a lot of white in a room, but Mr. Goujou's apartment has me rethinking things. There's an exquisite, but not fussy, balance of color, texture, and neutrality, and it's lively and inviting. I will be studying this video very closely, and I'll learn a lot, I'm sure. I'm already redesigning my plan for the Thanksgiving table. I only wish I could dash off to Paris to go on a mad spending spree at La Tuile a Loup! My Thanksgiving table would really level up! Thanks so much for introducing us to the man and his home.

[@quintessenceblg]

Our pleasure! So happy you found inspiration!

[@priscillajuarez1991]

Eric’s tablescapes are absolutely stunning! Oh this video was such a delight for me this morning.

[@quintessenceblg]

Our pleasure!! So glad you loved!

[@lemuelmalik8347]

I love a maximalist who still edits enough to where it looks clean crisp and refreshing . It's not that I mind Maximus to overstuff their spaces with collections it's just the upkeep of it all, too much cleaning. His space shows us how in a modern time we could still be Maximus but just restrained and edited Collections and I don't know very showroom like definitely very clean which always appeals to me. And then the use of color I love when individuals are not afraid of it at and he does it well.

[@quintessenceblg]

Agree with all! Thank you and so glad you enjoyed!

[@juliancoulden1753]

The attention to detail is extraordinary as is his flair for putting lovely things together

[@quintessenceblg]

Agreed!

[@kathymello2654]

Thank you for the inspiration, the dining area matches my dreams. Oh those arrangements of the glassware and ceramics....lovely. I have many different antique sets of China, different Depression glass in green, pink and Amber, Gold gilded Glassware and others, and many linens from times gone past. This inspires me to bring it out and layer it without fear. Thank you
