Leanne Gives An Old-Modern Look To This Young Couple's Victorian House | Restored By The Fords

[@superphone5559]

I wish they wouldn't redo historic homes! They do a fantastic job doing modern , but its sad to destroy the historic wood and furniture.........

[@Ang.0910]

These people are TERRIBLE at preserving old house character while at the same time updating. If you have an old house DONT HIRE that couple!!

[@gayathrivadivelu5432]

I usually LOVE everything The Fords do but this one am not sure.

[@Dfotografo]

I agree, even the owners look disappointed. Doesnt look like Leanne's style at all....

[@souwch]

Leanne is the interior designer on HGTV so far that I cannot feel the emotions from their clients seeing the result of the renovation.

[@isisantelo4440]

I honestly believe they take on the hardest projects. Everyone else just demos and starts new. They actually work with what they have which is way more complex.

[@drewconway7135]

I liked the before better. Those wall colors are darrrrk. And what’s with the two kitchen sinks back-to-back? Odd.

[@meganmarch3329]

Kosher kitchen maybe? I wondered the same thing

[@DonaBranca735]

This house should have been renovated by Ben and Erin.

[@L.Spencer]

I liked the dark color, and how the kitchen came out. I still don't think they do a great job of preserving though.

[@ORSkie]

Man I would have taken the original gorgeous house in a ❤️ beat before they did anything! Imo, they absolutely destroyed this beautiful heritage home. :'(

[@sodizzy3339]

Have to know Leanne Ford's design styles and inspiration to understand her interior designs.

[@jeannegustafson5021]

Gorgeous transformation for this young couple!

[@ufgator]

Are you telling me they spent 150k on this!!!!! Now that's a good rip off right there.

[@almaeclu]

I like the overall layout changes, but I'm struggling with the color choices. I'm thrilled that the owners like it though.

[@woobydooby9260]

I don’t think the guy genuinely liked the final outlook 🤔 he looked so disappointed! And pretended to be excited..

[@tinamccann8968]

Somehow there is a feeling of not much bang for the buck. The kitchen was a great improvement but the dining room and entry hall look cheap. The entry hall is cold, dingy, and uninviting --- quite depressing! I think I have seen this brother and sister duo before. As I recall they dunk everything in white paint.

[@aliasalias1321]

Totally agree about the dining room . Chairs, too big and tacky, hide the beautiful fireplace. And that oversize wallpaper, my god...this is bad taste, sorry...

[@svietka202]

That wallpaper is really not my taste And overall the house has lost so much of its charm. To me this was a really unsuccessful remodel and I’m not saying this as an interior designer by somebody who is looking at something that was absolutely gorgeous and just needed a bit of paint and a bit of updating instead of owning things that have withstood the test of time for over 100 years

[@singlecatt]

I prefered the house before the remodel.

[@donnaallgaier-lamberti3933]

LOVE your hat,...i need that!

[@MarnieSchalla]

Why did they paint that gorgeous brick column?

[@07laines07]

They took apart a 120 year old butler’s pantry?!? At least they reused everything. I couldn’t have done that, almost sac religious. All that workmanship… just couldn’t do it.

[@elizabethharttley4073]

Oy, it's yin and yang or in this instance contrast of color. Thank goodness there was salvage utilized. Painting that trim and brick is a nope for me.

[@loriannrichardson7644]

All of this designer's renovations are the same -- throw white paint on brick, and some dark color on the ceiling or the floors. Nothing special. The best room imao is the bar area, and it doesn't look very different.

[@jussarafernandes2392]

An architect to check out the STRUCTURE of the house? Serious? It should be a Structural Engineer. 🤔

[@SeaTurtle515]

Sorry, but you guys ruined this beautiful old house by painting all that beautiful wood. After a few years, that paint job will be chipped and look worn out. You should have kept all the natural wood and brightened it up with paint colors on the wall. The styling isn’t a nod to the historic, it’s just gaudy. Ugh!

[@happydays1336]

Vislas are very intelligent dogs--sometimes more than their owners! (I'm not referencing these homeowners.)

[@Ang.0910]

Watching them destroy this house really pisses me off 😖🤬 They’re just terrible and should not be able to touch a historic home!! Edit: I can’t believe the show is called “Restored by the Fords” They don’t restore anything! They demolish everything good! 🤬

[@tolykozin]

nothing like a sister to bring you a peg down from your lofty heights ...so what's your degree in? I mean your diploma haha !! LOL :)

[@martaleite1368]

Não é atual esse episódio.

[@ladyfirst2797]

Liked the kitchen, didn't like the DR wall paper, that's a lot of money for.just two rooms and as bath.

[@sewcrazybaker]

Leanne needs to find another line of work.

[@inolagranville7832]

🥳🥳🥳👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽😍

[@lynnpennec9711]

The design couple seems high most of the time.

[@normabadillo3235]

For real. they ruined that beautiful house.

[@fanfare78]

1st time I see more things I dislike Don’t do dark colouring In times you will see patches

[@jlsholli2992]

What was wrong with the old cabinets? At least there was warmth to the room. The redo had zero personality.

[@bbgunn917]

I cannot BELIEVE she destroyed that beautiful pantry. What is up with her, this isn't restoration. The wood stuck to the ceiling is rubbish. If modernizing was required, gloss black laqcuer on those doors. Or put the speakeasy in there with old bottles and shakers inside a burnished interior.

[@shihalya]

…. She is a great designer, but I don’t think she should do old historical homes Way to much white and not enough original elements, thankfully they didn’t do anything to the pretty stairs… I hope they had all the right permits

[@michaelflinn7784]

Your structural engineer is super hot 🥵

[@camillea7697]

Can Leanne be nasty to Steve, or is it just me. ?

[@chloebeary]

They butchered this beautiful house

[@samsum2592]

اللهم صل وسلم وبارك على نبينا محمد وعلى آله وصحبه أجمعين عدد ما خلقت وبقدر ما خلقت وملء ما خلقت وملء ما خلقت وعدد كل شيء وبقدر كل شيء وملء كل شيء من بدء الخليقة إلى يوم الدين مددآ بلا عدد

[@Fouloul.]

And it's no longer victorian. Not only they always destroy the spirit of the home, but it's beyond redondant. It's always white and bllackn and all the brick and wook is whitewashed (of course, of they hade done that to this wood, they should face jail time!)

[@micky8034]

Dark walls and flora wall paper is too dated and feminine. Not a great choice of style in this era I'm afraid

[@carlalago1436]

Não gostei porque não e reproduzir em português.

[@joaned8664]

They simply talk tooooo much and do nothing else Don't like this show😝👎

[@karenreimer2940]

Are they on drugs?????????

[@karenreimer2940]

150,000 .... um... they totally wiped their ass and used it on drugs... nothing new in there is worth 150,000.... besides the drugs in their noses....

[@danielleelcock1532]

Wallpaper not my cup of tea kitchen is too white the brick wall to the dinning shoud have been raw an not whitewash

[@RabbitXoo]

Not a fan of this one

[@gabygaby5701]

Way way too white

[@hughkirk3946]

Like your show but clean up your dude. Decent looking guy but desperately needs a haircut.

[@kikilindsey5543]

That is her brother..
