Oh I know where you're coming from. My mother delivered her wisdom and her ideas about style in such casually delivered, colourful epigrams and declarations, and most usually followed by waves of the hand and statements like "but that's common sense, everybody knows that". Due to her self-assured delivery and elegance I've remembered most of these moments of clarity and direction as if they were carved into stone and they pop into my head at key moments in my life, aesthetically speaking LOL. Some people just have that sort of lifelong impact don't they? And as I've grown and aged, I realise that no, not EVERYBODY 'knows that'; my mother is just brilliant and modest and has no idea how cultured and stylish she really is, is all. I wonder if yours is so effortlessly marvellous also because it sure sounds like it. Lucky us, hey? :D

Paint those pine boards white...great idea mom! Reminds me of how I brushed off my mom. My mom was a nice lady, an introvert, she was shy and gently self effacing. I thought as a young woman that my mom had no style, no grace no ideas. How wrong was I. Looking back at photos she had huge amounts of style and grace and she had the gumption to try new interior deco ideas and garden layouts that have stood the test of time. I am old now, and in hindsight, really wish, when I was younger that I had listened more to her gentle guiding light.

I don't know how I have been out of the loop for so long, but I just discovered your charming channel. I couldn't be happier! I have been binge watching for the last three days! This home of Madeline's is one of my personal favorites. I too am a designer and a Susannah to boot! Soul sistas, kindred spirits for sure. I have watched several of these delicious forays into the personal homes of some of my favorite style makers, multiple times, pausing, going back over little snippets, there is so much fabulousness to take in! Your personality and wonderful comments, Susanna, make me feel like you are just bringing a few friends (your subbies) along for the sheer pleasure of sharing such intimate, ever so homey, visits that we could never be privy to on our own..."Uh, I'm a friend of Susanna's, she said I could come too!" 👍😉! I'm gonna have a hard time rationing these "treats" as I tend to become somewhat addicted to all this "eye candy"! I'm ever so THANKFUL I found you and all your "friends", on the day before Thanksgiving!... On to the next one!! 😙!

This little home is A-D-O-R-A-B-L-E!! Madeline did a superb job of renovating into a peaceful little retreat. All the little details of hardware, woodwork and decor made it so interesting and a conversation starter for sure. The antique furniture is amazing and how she managed to find twin pieces so large to fit into such a small home is genius. By putting the bed, lamps and night stands into the recessed wall of her bedroom and how she was able to make it look so simply elegant was a surprise for me. I only wish I could have seen more of her kitchen and garden but her garden table was set perfectly for an early dinner outdoors with a friend. Thank you again Susanna and Stacey for all your efforts to bring us quality videos to feed us our insatiable design fodder. Loved this video!

Derelict?!? Hmmm... I saw the ‘before’ photos and definitely it wasn’t even remotely derelict! I do love the way she has re-done the house however, Calling the sweet cottage look as derelict is bit snobbish because a place that is truly derelict cannot even compare with how the house was before being redone!

What a lovely pied a terre, I think I would just move there and call it quits on my other home, but isn't it nice to have the ability to go from your home in the suburbs (or wherever) and have a lovely place like this in the middle of the city? Amazing finds. Loved what she did with the bedroom entrance and how the space looks larger even though it is small and have such large pieces of furniture and it all blends.

Love the simple white bookshelves. A friend was closing her bookstore where I live so I bought eight of her bookshelves, these that were well made to hold hardbacks but were natural colored pine...I painted those white to display some books, many large pieces of my Mexican talavera Mexican silver serving piece collection and in my bathroo,s, open storage for towels. Instead of the red Saltillo style tile here used for traditional homes, I installed cream marble oversize tile which expands them sizes of them rooms visually and are surprisingly easier to keep clean than the Saltillo type tile...the light floors also adds light reflection to the room which was needed. Too many Spanish colonial homes here have the feeling of dark depressing caves because they have dark wooden beamed and planked ceilings...which really ARE lovley. Then they muse whitewash on the plaster walls BUT the dark ceilings and floors make you feel really boxed in, even the the ceilings are high ones.

I love that the background color makes the collections look focused. I have a home in Guatemala. I took advantage of a view by removing almost all of the wall facing the top of the dormant volcano we sit on in our master bedroom.Here we installed an enormous Morrocan arch shaped set of windows and doors to,our upper terrace..it is,one of the best features of our home. We had Ford glass installed to cut down on the sun coming in but we are in the temperate highlands so heat has not been a problem...I did put up white blackout lined curtains so on the days direct hot sun somes in for a couple of hours I can close those . NO one here has ac or heat. The bedroom has a raised hearth fireplace with Moroccan arch opening and behind our king size canopied and fully curtained local made bed I had our workers make a large frame in stucco moulding echoing the widowed arch. THere I painted a mural of dawn over the Pacific beach 50 miles away. IT is the most luxurious and beautful bedroom I have ever seen....I sit with my coffee in bed for an hour after I awake feeling like a queen looking at the volcano top and my walled tropical bloom filled garden below... sheer heaven. Many of the features of my home here were initially inspired by my love of Santa Barbara architecture. If any place on earth has Sta Barabras climate beat it is here....year round d Spring!

I watch many “home shows”, but keep coming back to Quintessence. I rewatch many segments (Mark D. Sikes, Gianetti Farms, Suzanne Rheinstein, Jill & Ray Weeks, Alex Papacristidis, Bunny Williams to name a few of my favs. Love Suzanna’s charming personality and Stacey is wonderful too!

What a cute little cottage. I love the human dimensions of it, but frankly, I preferred the original paneling to the clinical white. The little garden space is to die for. Please, please make this videos a little longer. Introduce us to the owners and let them share their thoughts regarding their design choices a little more extensively. Let them expand on their objects, where they came from, how they were acquired, etc. Great series.

I've only just found your channel via another youtuber. I love it but the audio is very buzzy. So I have to turn the volume down very low. Great properties and wonderful escapism.
