Homebody Diaries | new living room tour, coffee bar setup, end of summer moments

[@marthah.4443]

The LR setup is sooooo much better!!!

[@dani_tone]

for real is way better than before

[@imericwang]

so glad you like it!! I wasn't sure about it at first but we've been really loving it :)

[@realSkullKid]

@@imericwang who's we? or is that to sound cooler?

[@janelte]

The new living room set up is much more balanced and conversational, I think. More of my unasked for advice: I think the contrast between the fire surround and all the white furniture and light wood would be brought together with a different rug. Something in a really neutral melange or flecked weave in brown with some green and or grey tones to the colour, so that the overall effect is a natural brown darker than the blonde wood but not heavy and chocolatey, and providing textural contrast rather than a pattern necessarily. It would ground the sofas, lights, and tables in the space. Also my coffee roaster friend roasted me for having a clear glass container for my beans and keeping them out in the light, so if you want them to retain their flavour and freshness for longer, put your container somewhere cool and dark.

[@imericwang]

i've been thinking about that too!! I think it's a great idea a rug with some more dark details could really ground the space and tie together the dark ceiling beams and the fire place -- just gotta find the right one!

[@janelte]

@@imericwang Finding the right rug is one of life's adulting challenges. Sooooo tricky!

[@MyUnpolishedLife]

Your Home Is absolutely Amazing

[@Asulin19]

bro omg I love your house. You NEED to make a video showing all of your furniture and where you got it from like couches, tables, shelfs, and chairs.

[@sailorallie9046]

Best setup! I love that shelf behind the couch

[@karebear326]

The layout makes so much more sense👌 love the cozy reading nook❤

[@Nick-mi4cg]

The new living room setup is really nice, there is a nice flow and having that separated space behind the couch also introduce a “wall” between it and the possible motion to the window; maybe the lamps cords may be a little in the way but the cohesion given by the similar design of them is worth it. Great job!

[@imericwang]

yeahhh i wish i had a better solution for the lamp cables but thank you!!

[@dsvm189]

It looks so much better!! More organized, clean and like you!!

[@zenstitch9972]

Finally evolved into the perfect living room setup. It takes time.

[@hummingbumblebee83]

I love that little chair in corner and sun and read books ….. love ur setup 🎉

[@khalilrasalan329]

lobe the new living room set up specially the sectioned off study eading nook. Great place to hang out after making coffee from your coffee station. Great stuff!

[@ankeyta.m]

Oh I have always seen the living room in bright sunlight. Its so so good in this gloomy weather. So cozy so comforting..also the new setup its perfect. The rug which others suggested might be the last touch it needs to get the final look. This is the best..

[@sheliaerwin3899]

The shelf behind the couch is brilliant it reminds me of a cosy library❤

[@_hraymond]

Living room setup flows so much better! I guess you can also always have your back temporarily to the fireplace for watching TV with the Togo as well if you have friends round as that’s quite an easy adjustment. 2 things for the coffee station that you may want to consider: - Set of coffee scales (usually with a timer as well as for weighing) - Exposing coffee to too much light can affect the quality and flavour over time, so it may be worth either placing it in the cupboard or getting a version of the vacuum in full matt black. The process is called photo degradation if you wanna find out more! The new Fellow coffee brewer looks great! There’s one we have in Europe that’s called the Moccamaster which if you ever want something more retro looking could also be good too (and for larger batch brew coffees if you’re making it for 3+ people 😊)

[@imericwang]

thank you for the suggestions!

[@rodadelossantos6194]

Love the corner reading nook!

[@momoe6477]

Your setup is great ! Very convenient and warm

[@barbarashirland9078]

Love your living room set up and your coffee nook. Your noodle night looked delicious!

[@christineee444]

the new living room set up is so nice!!

[@888-p1u]

I feel so calm after watching your videos 😊

[@TP-fq8wd]

Fog and rain are wonderful. You wouldn't appreciate the sun without the other elements.

[@Wisdom_Gate123]

Prefect and functional setup!👍🏾👍🏾

[@umutonibelise6296]

Once again Eric's video made my day ☺️!But I wish it was a little bit longer, 8min. feels like seconds!! The living room set up looks great ❤️

[@SaiiTube]

I really like the new arrangement. Good job!

[@MindQuestMania]

The LR Layout is perfect!

[@HansHezborn]

Amazing set up

[@aroundthebasesvintage]

Your living room setup is actually perfect now

[@odalis6177]

A gloomy day is only a state of mind. I choose to call it a cozy day. ☔️ Enjoy your beautiful place.

[@normie609]

love your content man, this really got me into home decor ❣

[@imericwang]

so happy to hear that :)

[@sophiebond]

I love love your new coffee set-up! I recommend with the bags of coffee beans you haven't opened yet to store them in the freezer - it'll help keep them fresher for longer 🙂

[@sheliaerwin3899]

Your coffee cafe is sooo cool also the kitchenaid mixer is simply beautiful just subscribed thanks Eric your design inspiration is very unique ❤

[@Girafze]

Idk if you have heard of it but a game called tiny glade came out just this week. It’s a cozy architecture/ castle builder where you can make cute digital dioramas. It’s available on steam and I’m really excited to play it. I think you would rlly like it, especially for those gloomy days you’ve been seeing recently : )

[@Stoooable]

I binge watched the past few videos and I was contemplating whether to suggest this layout or not. Happy I didn't so I don't look like a jack*ss haha. I just love how it gives the togo it's own moment framed by the staircase in the background. Chef's kiss 🤌

[@MiCHELUMABAL]

LR set up is so much better! Love it 🤩

[@imericwang]

thank you!!

[@ShenZA6]

4:53 your mom and the knife. she just cant let go of it.😂

[@hamburgerjung5349]

Local project… always a good choice for an afternoon on the couch 🤓

[@Mega21stcentury]

Have you considered painting the fireplace mantle a neutral color? Might make it fade in the background in case you dont want it to stick out. Alternatively, you could add a rug with some black tones, say a black checkered rug, to tie the black into the rest of the living room.

[@x_koulhs7575]

Bro i really like your vibe and your videos. The wat you mix modern minimalistic mcm pieces makes the space COZY. It would be also intresting if you try to maintain the white chair in the living room so to make a really big living space to read watch tv play games etc. It would be cozy and cool i think. Just an idea. Overall i love your videos really :-)💪🏻

[@bijismythe551]

Looking good! Just store the coffee beans in the dark, itll add to the preservation youre trying to do with the vacuum 🎉

[@heyshiruka]

looks really great! super cozy and the flow is good. just one thing- please dont let the armrest chair in the reading nook touch the walls, even if you need to move the adjacent shelving and sofa a tiny bit as well for that 😌 (💚 shiru, interior designer 😎)

[@Canseeyt]

Such a vibe 😮‍💨

[@lmelki89]

I'm new here and this may be a weird comment but I clicked your video because of that font?? Your whole aesthetic is just too good. Also, elden ring!! I would recommend the cyberpunk 2077 dlc if its your kind of thing, I loved it.

[@imericwang]

hahaha thank you! will definitely look into cyberbunk 2077 too :)

[@sheliaerwin3899]

Great job Eric!!!

[@chasel2205]

Couple questions - where did you get the area rug? The tv stand? And the white chair in the corner? Loving the new layout!

[@Perfectlypleatedtrousers]

New setup is much better! Starting to gravitate away from the TV aswell, and making the LR more of a LR instead of a watching room 😅 have you considered a move able TV stand such as Pedestal. Those would definitely work in your living room ❤

[@jaydeearre]

Let's go Eric dropped right on my lunch break!!!

[@imericwang]

lets gooooo have a good lunch break :)

Love the vibes of the video! Where did you get your joggers and hoodie from at the beginning?

[@malibujayde]

Your cat is my spirit animal 😂💛

[@kikiob3628]

Can you do a plant tour? Some look like they’re not getting light. I don’t have much light in my home so interested in how yours are doing and what types you have.

[@therealtaydev]

I love the LR setup, but I see how it can be difficult to arrange. And best of luck with the Elden Ring DLC! I just completed it yesterday.

[@jdalit08]

Ghost of Tsushima, God of War 1 & 2, The Last of Us 1 remastered and 2, Spider-Man 1& 2 + Miles Morales!!

[@Randomchicken911]

Been watching quite a few of your videos! Very aesthetic. What do you do for a living?

[@tarikabdullah7694]

Hey man! I’ve been loving your vids for so long now. Can you tell me how your sofa has held up? If you could, would you buy it again?

[@MindQuestMania]

Mao is so cute 🥰

[@KillerTacos54]

Amazing video as always. Glad you're enjoying Elden Ring!

[@stevenhannigan93]

You gotta play Hollow Knight if you've not already! Love the new living room setup and I'm jealous of your coffee bar!

[@lisamuller2386]

you have the kitchenAid of my dreams - How does the wooden bowl hold up? Do you use it often?

[@imericwang]

it's amazing!! getting into baking so maybe ill include that in a future video -- the bowl is good it just needs to be carefully handwashed

[@potterlinda02]

I love it!!!!

[@hummingbumblebee83]

I love your coffee shelf …. Where you got it from 😊

[@manuelcalleja92]

Nice rearrangement! What's the name of the shelving system at 3:49 behind the couch?

Is eric ever gonna answer 🫣

It’s an IKEA PS modular shelving system from 2014!

Hi Eric! Can you recommend some design, interior design books (that can also play an aesthetic role as "decorative" books) ? thankss

Great video. You might want to check out Borderless Beans for your specialty coffee beans. They’re delicious

[@andrecukin]

Where is the coffee table/stools from?

[@ZeckPlays]

if you haven't played Baldur's Gate 3, I highly recommend it. Even if you aren't into Dungeons and Dragons, the storyline and RPG elements are absolutely a 10/10.

[@Afromite]

We're not going to just glance of their new Kitchenaid Mixer in evergreen that everyone has been talking about.

[@imericwang]

HAHA i wasn't sure anyone would notice

[@Rishro29]

Where do you get your things like your shelves? I love the white and light wood conbo but I have trouble finding more than the same 3 style of shelving units...

[@imericwang]

a buuunch of different places! those ones are modular shelves from IKEA back in 2014

[@ChuahFt]

Are you keeping your PS5 in the tv cabinet? Wouldn't it get heats up in non ventilation space?

[@Misterdavidc]

Do you have a link to that coffee vacuum sealer?

[@Jeniveve]

Where did you move to from the city? Is this Sausalito? It’s so beautiful and serene.

[@christophsc]

Which dining table is that?

[@BuddyFox]

Please if anyone knows the name of the shelving unit that coffee station is on, I need the heck out of it.

[@zacharykosove9048]

What's the song you use in the background here? 6:06

[@zacharykosove9048]

Actually if you have a playlist of the songs you use for your vids that would be awesome, they're so relaxing!

[@roxtendo]

I played Elden Ring too much tbh. I don't know if you like Metrodvania games like Hollow Knight? Or try some rpgs like Golden Sun 1 and 2. Great story, top round based combat so it's hard but cozy too

lots of inspiration from nina dobrev

[@davelody]

I think I can recommend you to play a game called "Squirel with a Gun" it's a really fun and very unique game tho!

[@CenturyVox]

New setup feels more natural now. Old ones felt a bit cramped

[@Lazyspacee]

Bro give me your house 😭😭😭 It’s so pretty

[@waggermama]

The new living room setup looks so much better, more of a “grown up” space, if you follow me?

Places for different works

[@NoelleRose-gf3bm]

would you ever consider opening/owning a cafe called "Homebody Cafe"? lo

[@mlekkhelifi5436]

Play Hades 1 the Hades 2 :) !

[@nordfresse]

Honestly I dont think that coffee station is a good idea in that spot. It makes the whole area look crammed because it is sqeezed between the door and the kitchen cabinet. Also it doesnt really word visually with the kitchen cabinets because they are so solid. I mean you could easily just make coffee in the kitchen right...

[@jamminjac]

Is it just me or do the chairs look way too high for the circle dining table? Everyone's backs were so hunched during the noodle dinner lol

[@romillapandita]

You should play animal crossing!!😀
