HOUSE TOUR | Inside Christene Barberich's Vibrant Brooklyn Home

[@joycehamilton698]

I love looking around this type of home rather than luxury mansions! More interesting and "real" !👌👌👌💙🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@Lolinucha]

totalmente! las casas gigantes frías vacías, sin nada de muestra que habita un ser vivo ahí 😂 no, son horribles. Son solo paredes pintadas. Esta casa es un hogar alegre con amor 💜🌸

[@auroratorres7873]

I have seen hundreds of videos showcasing people's homes and apartments from all over the world, but for me, there are no living spaces as unique and entertaining as the ones that are decorated by New Yorkers! There is a vibe that does not come through when viewing other domains in any other part of the world for me. This apartment is marvelous. I love the way Christene has utilized every bit of space in her apartment for her and her family's benefit. I honestly enjoyed watching this video.

[@OrganikHarmoni]

I agree. I first saw Christine's home on deeply madly modern (here on you tube) and I was inspired to create a Playlist of the most personal and unique home tours that I come cross, since I am always watching a home tour. I come back to this Playlist and play any for inspiration and sometimes just to admire

[@karo1922]

And where are you from ? I am from EU and I always got impression that NYC apartments are overcharged/even kitschy. That’s why I wonder where are you from ?

[@auroratorres7873]

@@karo1922 I was born and raised in New York City and I stand my ground. No one designs their space more uniquely than New Yorkers. So what if some apartments are kitschy. That is part of the uniqeness in the design. And yes, most apartments charge super high rents, but there are those who can afford to pay it and do.

[@karo1922]

@@auroratorres7873 That’s explains why you like the NYC apartments the most. When I said overcharged- I referred to the number of objects. Myself I am more into Scandinavian style, good design but few pieces. It doesn’t mean that one or other is wrong, it’s just our cultural background.

[@karo1922]

@@elaorleansplus That’s probably the difference between us (among others ;)), I love Scandi clean spaces and ☠️cleaning is a thoughtful thing to do in my opinion ;)

This home is really inspiring! I love homes that are collected like this rather than homes that are “designed”, they are more interesting and cool.

Her daughter is an incredible artist for 5 years old❣

[@averytsai4755]

Totally!

[@hintex487]

She is cute

[@juliereadsherbookshelf]

I don’t find the home cluttered at all. I think it’s incredible in allowing the eye to travel and land always on something interesting. She’s made a small space work for a family. Inspiring.

[@blackirisvtg143]

Adore the curated yet real lived in look of the space! Style perfection.

[@dianamendoza5004]

I love that they have hung the daughter’s art and allowed her to contribute to the decor of the home. It’s always weird to see home tours where children live and there is zero evidence of them living there. It’s an important parenting technique to encourage their art making and instill an appreciation for not just art, but for their collective family home. Bravo!

[@blkgirlspeaks9053]

I so agree

[@Lolinucha]

totalmente 🙌 apoyar y fomentar el arte o cualquier actividad que realicen los hijos ❤aumentan muchísimo su autoestima y desarrollo sano, valorándolos y haciendo que los niños se sientan valorados y amados, ayuda tanto a realizarse cada vez mas. Que gran muestra de amor. Cómo se puede tirar el dibujo de un niño? Esa casa sí se siente viva y llena de amor y alegría tan colorida y personal, práctica y funcional. Maravillosa 🙌🌸💜💛

[@paulajf4205]

I love when rich people who could live bigger choose to live small and thrive in their space. It's partly a New York thing for obvious reasons, but also a decision to have a smaller footprint. Also, small or big, this is a unique space full of creativity and personal touches.

[@DaniellePJ]

Loved her apartment when I first saw it on deeply madly modern. So glad to see another tour! Keep doing all the home tours Christine B., I’ll watch them! So inspiring.

[@StrangelySansName]

Oh yay! I so enjoy Christine Barberich and her vibrant, eclectic home. So happy to see her on Homeworthy. I've been following her work for years, since Refinery 29, which makes it's so great to see her and her home featured in media besides her newsletter. Her newsletter is a must read, btw. I’m always glad to see collected loved in homes over the overly designed homes. The people complaining about supposed clutter are too funny. Do they nit realize that people who love these sorts of homes would think their overly minimalist homes are boring?

Such a fabulous woman! Loved her and her beautiful space. 😊

[@karenstanislaw8912]

Worlds within worlds. Another interesting, pleasant, thoughtful hostess. I respect and align with much of her world, propensities, and nourishments. Continued wonder and much success to Christene and her family. A soulful thumbs up .

[@chattykathie7129]

I agree keeping art supplies at your fingertips is key to creating spontaneous art.

[@gladysperez8156]

I love Mrs. Baberick’s ease, and of all her apartment tour I loved her bathroom & her artistic expressions such as the can of Cafe Bustelo, the real displayed of her dresses 👗 and her daughter’s and mother’s arts. That’s being real and evolving.

[@pegburke4117]

One of my favorite episodes! Really stirred my creative imagination.

[@lanelmuhammad]

I love her home. I’ve seen it before featured on Home Decor Homies with Kelly!

[@MsAnneofgreengables]

I want to be her friend. This reminds me of my LA house, skylights, bright light and all. Like Christene, I attract boxes and graphics and soap wrappers, and packaging, oh, and quilts and fabrics. My art room is bulging at the seams. That wall of shoes! OMG. Fabulous. Thank you for showing her books. I didn’t want this video to end. Such a gracious, fascinating host and a wonderful home. This is my favorite Homeworthy episode ever.

[@stuartglover98]

why? she's soooo boring!

[@thoughts3897]

I love this woman's style. The mix of different things --the stories attached to those things --even imagined stories. Found or thrifted items are just so interesting. Love love love

[@DieMademoiselleAnne]

I love her and her home. I discovered her a couple of years ago and she inspired me to follow my instinct and doing what feels right for us as a family and express my creativity at home more.

[@charlesblack1086]

What a beautiful home! I love how you've incorporated found objects and celebrate them. I do the same thing. It's so fun using vintage things that have a story to tell. Lovely presentation. Thank you.🏡

[@tesswolff8827]

Marvelous! There is so much appreciation of art, life, and people in this lovely home!

[@wendymitchell4511]

This was a FUN and utterly refreshing house tour! As much as minimalism has its place in the world; eclectic, colorful, and expressive style does as well! I thoroughly enjoyed your display and said connections to and love for your many personal pieces. Thank you for sharing! Bravo Christene!!

[@annikekki616]

This feels really funny to say of someone else's home but I absolutely love this home and space. I'm really inspired by the color choices, patterns and lines. Seeing this sort of family home is truly truly wonderful. I know I will watch this video over and over again and always find something new to be inspired by - thank you!!

[@kaktusdesiberie7196]

I love that looking at her house you feel like you learned about her.

The inspirational idea of hiding electrons, with beautiful textiles, is brilliant. Almost makes me want to get a tv, as a fabric display panel ❤

[@daniellekorneliussen4244]

My interest in Christene has been kindled over many a year (I’m thinking perhaps 25ish years or so?) via her work at Refinery 29 and beyond. I’m thinking about how enormously rewarding it is to not only see how the elements of her home harmonize so seamlessly in the photos that one sees on her social media galleries, but in the flow of a nice long film such as this… It’s such a massive TREAT‼️What impresses me enormously about this lady is knowing that her passion for vintage is on such a vast scale that one cannot help but be impressed by her ability to “rein it in” in her tiny home so that her objects & art seem to speak to each other within the realm of the small vignettes that they’ve been placed in. I’m also thinking that if Christene and I were to do an apartment swap for one week, we’d nearly feel like we were simply staying in our own pied-à-terre… Our spaces and wardrobes are so similar. Thanks to the artful efforts of Homeworthy, we get to sneak a substantial peek inside some of the most magical spaces around the globe and I’m 100% here for it!❤

[@billbixby122]

Beautiful well done.Definately a sense of style. To each is own as far as you commenting on clutter.

[@dissidentfairy4264]

My favorite places are colorful, artsy, whimsical, and fun, and this place meets the criteria:-) It's wonderful the way they encourage their daughter in the Arts.

[@sineadkellyartist]

What a wonderful home! It seems there would be such artistic energy there 😊 the owner’s appreciation for interesting shipping packaging resonated - I do the same thing and yes to the cassette tape!

[@underthemermaidmoon]

Love all her things- i have similar amounts. Her attitude about her home is great!

[@mairedaly4926]

This is an apartment many in Europe can identify with. I love her attitude to 'found' objects and it's really paid off.... This is both relatable and well curated with a marvellous story.

[@CarebearMacDaddy]

1.Definitely going to subscribe to the newsletter. 2. Hopefully she’s reading this, my fav part of Refinery was Sweet Digs. I miss that segment in my life.

Beautiful home and decorate what you like and makes you happy.

[@katelynoquinn2156]

Oh adored every moment. Please more of THIS! Thoughtful, gorgeous, personal & not gigantesque !

[@JustcallmeKathi]

This apartment seems to be a bit controversial between the more minimalist and maximalist fractions. I love it, and unlike some other commentators I do see a lot of intentional design, but it's broken up with seemingly eclectic objects that are art work or have a specific meaning for the owner. I think the brightness and high ceiling of the central space makes it work so well, it feels inspiring and cheerful to me.

[@michelemorris2366]

I love finding treasures on side of roads❤

[@Myglowtips]

2 minutes ago I am 59 years old, have lived in three different countries and I am yet to find anything on the sidewalk. How do people find all these wonderful things on the sidewalk? I really, like her home especially the couch and dining table and how she‘s balanced all the stuff skillfully. It‘s very full but not cluttered.

[@andreaschmall5560]

I found a beautiful Japanese vase sitting right on top of some cartons and bags left out for trash collection on my way walking to my mom's house one day. It seemed as if someone was moving and cleaning out their house as it was in front of a very pretty one family private home. I snatched it up and put it in my bag and was tempted to look through the rest of the trash there but did not want to attract any attention and was just glad to have already found such a treasure. It is a gorgeous shade of blue with painted on Oriental style branches and approximately 6 inches tall and in perfect condition. Till this day, I am still puzzled as to why someone would discard it that way and as if it was waiting for me by the way it was just sitting on top of everything else.

I like her reasoning in design, I can use in my space, but not necessarily her style.

[@colinkulowcreative]

Stunning!

[@glenysburgoyne7128]

What an innate sense of colour and style! The juxtaposition of the ordinary (packing material) with really iconic, designer stuff (and often picked up off the NY street - only in NY - or purchased for a pittance, years ago) that this woman (and maybe partner also) have chosen is awe-inspiring. I will never have the artistic sense that this home has, even if I aspire to have it. The child seems to be a budding artistic. Also, for god's sake, there is stuff stuck up with painter's tape or wild pink tape and it works! I love it so much.

[@angelaberni8873]

Interesting house. But toilet seat up,oh dear !! I'm impressed how she loves everything in her home. I'm always changing things around in mine as I'm rarely satisfied with results. Than goodness mine isn't on homeworthy or I'd be picking it to bits 😂😂

Hmmm. I always wonder how people can live in such a busy space. It spells chaos to me. I couldn't begin anything with things everywhere (i.e. dinner). I'd be compelled to put things away. I wish I was a little more relaxed like she is I just can't do it. In my house, everything has a home and I pay a little more attention to style As soon as things start "hanging around", I feel the need to put them where they belong. I could not find peace in this apartment but great if it works for her family, which it obviously does.

Everything in Christene’s home also has a place and is bursting with style.

[@vanessazlatic7849]

@@olishe1341 One does not discuss tastes (style). Each to his own, but when the place for things are out in the open (all of them), they are not "put away". Anyway, enjoy if that's how you like to live. I was just musing.
