At Home on Fifth Avenue with Howard Slatkin

[@voyager1369]

Homes like this deserve at least a half hour special.

[@Landshark2020]

Absolutely!

[@marygreen3529]

Totally agree!

[@philipmaynard8852]

True

[@LuckystrikeNQ]

Indeed true.

[@thefilipinojoe]

He has a true gift for bringing theatrical oppulance to life. My favourite designer ever. 💕

[@quintessenceblg]

Agree and you have great taste! 👍🏻

[@faithnelson2013]

charming man. i like that he loves books so much. and that he emphasized just talking/listening to his guests.

[@LaLaLaAllDayLong]

I love his soft voice! That flower sculpture is just divine!

[@tigermoon44]

I'm speechless ... it's all so grande and beautiful!!! Every room was like a jewelry box!

[@quintessenceblg]

It is indeed! Howard is amazing - thank you!

[@susanbrogan2517]

@@quintessenceblg Did he design all of this or did he have some help?

[@stellagomez542]

His house is stunning ;-) My mouth would of dropped as well once I stepped in. All the beautiful details. I want a home like that ;-) Thank you for sharing.

[@quintessenceblg]

Our pleasure! Howard's apartment was extraordinary!

[@Callinder]

Absolutely outstanding and a real tour de force. If an interior design is over the top then you really can't hold back and Slatkin has resisted any temptation to do so. This transcends being a home and has moved into the realm of art. I note that his home is now on the market and I hope that a prospective purchaser will appreciate everything that has been put into this apartment and that it is not bought by a philistine who "renovates" everything and destroys a masterpiece.

[@quintessenceblg]

+Bill Callinder-Scott Totally agree! Fingers crossed!

[@billcordell9797]

Bill Callinder-Scott it will be though ☹️

[@renatedebruyn9612]

a philistine ... great analogy

[@clairewright8153]

Bill Callinder, I’ve only recently discovered this channel so have lots of catching up to do. So my question do you know who bought the apartment and please tell me they didn’t destroy it ??

[@BestOfSweetMagnoliaa]

Absolutely love his apartment! Just like jewellery box.. Amazingly decorated! Incredible Detailing! Susan you are the best I love you channel❤️❤️

[@buenavista312]

I absolutely LOVED this magnificent and stunning home.... my favorite of all episodes... !!! I can only dream of such a home... Well done you Mr. Slatkin...❤️✨

[@quintessenceblg]

It was an incredible work of art. He has since sold it.

[@SevenDaysofStyleNY]

What an absolute masterpiece of a dwelling. Amazing.

[@nicolafazio674]

Everything is spectacular. So much talent.

[@quintessenceblg]

Truly!

[@rosalindhambleton39]

This décor is truly over the top in every sense of the word ! But... It is truly beautiful, inspiring, a gift to the eyes, gorgeousness in the living expression ! The details reflect the great taste of Howard. It is an inspiration for us that loves beauty and style, to use and show our beautiful things. Thank you so much for posting this video which is a living piece of art !

[@homodeus8713]

Thank you Howard! Truly exceptional. Rewound several times to examine the detail more closely. 🙏

I love 5:08 to 5:12 in the vlog. The quarters in the glass bowl and all the accessories I have the same in my closet and something about those coins make it so nice. Thank you for continued inspiration.

[@MarciaSantos-ox1fk]

One of the best apts I’ve seen in Manhattan! Great job Susanna!

[@MichaelDugenia]

It's so deliciously cluttered but in the most elegant and tasteful way. I love how various objects are put in place and while they are of different design disciplines, it looks well put together.

[@deannavp2253]

Wow there’s so much to see in this one place. Fifth avenue home, how charming and to top it all off with a beautiful elegant dinner!

@@quintessenceblg it sounds like Howard has past away. His apartment was a testament to his love of life. In any case I’m happy to have discovered his wonderful gift. ☀️

[@audrahollis5364]

everything is just exquisite. you could be a guest in his home for years and still continually discover something new and exciting...each and every day

[@Androgynousart]

what an amazing apartment and He is so lovely :) I am really enjoying your channel and the inspirations from it. Please come to Europe more often :)

[@franmellor9843]

I've seen this home on tv here in England he gets the balance of it just right without it going ridiculously ott ...genious

[@KitKat24531]

I love it! I built my home 10 years ago in a plantation look. I’ve been decorating mine for years, golds on walls and ceilings, needlepoint rugs with French baroque mirrors, French lamps with yards of silk. Large paintings and one thing I do is collect French urns, I have Orchids in every room... Another thing I collect is bergere chairs, there’s nothing more beautiful than a silk down stuffed bergere..It’s always a work in progress but lots of fun especially finding a remarkable piece all by serendipity.......One more thing, beautiful electrical sconces, I’ve tried to incorporate them in all my rooms plus large antique chandeliers..

[@caligulalonghbottom2629]

Ive become absolutely obsessed with rock crystal chandeliers...and I too love urns! Unlike alot of objets,urns are useful as vases even though they look beautiful without anything. I used to love clocks but now I really don't like them so much, they take up a lot of room.

[@HKS286]

I love French decor

[@karmachannel9135]

Some people do not know what a blessing it is to be surrounded by beauty and positive artistic people. This is truly a wonderful life, the fact that you can create such a delight environment where you can spend time and live your best life.

[@BIGTODD250]

Just so fabulous........ not for everyone, but a pared down version would be for me. So exquisite. That bedroom! Simply beyond.

[@TheFiown]

This has to be the ultimate example of Fifth Ave taste, a capsule in time ,,,, overwhelming but I could spend a year just examining each detail ,,,, couldn't live in it but love it ,,,

[@starboard7308]

Susanna. Seriously. I have GOT to go in there and make dinner. I can't keep doing this binge-y thing I'm doing with your videos. So PLEASE, let me go....oh..okay, maybe one more.

[@ilovetheseventies6461]

[@777videos7777]

That was Not long enough at all! More! More!

[@AngelaPaulina1989]

This is so stunning woah 🤯

[@quintessenceblg]

It was an extraordinary apartment!

[@andrewbrendan1579]

Very interesting comment from Mr. Slatkin: "If you've got a certain budget or you've got only enough time to focus on something, I'd rather say put it in the things you touch every day" That is good commons sense.---I went back in the video to look at the cup or tumbler in his dressing room so I could get a better look at the pens. I think I saw two Mont Blanc pens in there. I'm not surprised! I'm on "...a certain budget" myself but I have some nice pens, nothing really expensive except for a Mont Blanc that I found and that no one ever claimed despite my lost-and-found ads and signs and I like to select the pen I'm going to take with me when I go out for the day. I'll put it this way: Have, enjoy, use!

[@quintessenceblg]

Couldn't agree more - use the good stuff every day!

[@Heather11268]

Howard is my favorite. every room is like a precious jewel box.

[@carolking6355]

[@kirsten1007]

@@jobrownsmith116 I concur. Simple

[@Robin-no8cu]

I agree. It’s a work of art, but oh my. I’m working on a theory based on having seen several of these Park Avenue homes; some people overfill them as a reaction to the constraints of living in a crowded, dirty, noisy, dangerous city. It is one area that they can control, and even if space is at a premium, the space is stuffed to the gills with beauty to counterbalance the outside. Those tole sculptures are magnificent.
