HOUSE TOUR | Enchanting Hollywood Hills Home with Famous Past

[@onitasanders7403]

Just love Homeworthy’s long format. This is the way to view these very different homes.

[@twistoffate4791]

Me too. We don't have the attention span of a gnat. We like to see & learn, and soak in the atmosphere.

I love that you allow the homeowners to talk about their homes. You really get a deeper sense of understanding of their design process.

[@rmonson5002]

Exactly. I like that she let's the homeowner do ALL the talking. I cannot with the tours where the homeowner is constantly interrupted. That bugs, man.

Agreed. I was just thinking, Alison is so silent. It’s wonderful x

[@TexasLolly]

Scott is as exceptional person as he is a designer. We grew up in the same West Texas town and he has always been this thoughtful, intentional and fun. The home he has created is perfection. Blessings for continued success and a life well lived. You make your HEREFORD homies proud!

[@scottformby2165]

Thank you and hello Kelly!!!! Appreciate it so much. Sending you and yours a big hug.

[@EnfinLibreNM]

I was watching this video and wishing that I knew Scott. He seems like such a kind, gentle soul. When he was talking about books, I thought "gee, he should see my library..." then, when he talked about auctions, well...great auctions here in northern New Mexico --- AND he could wear his wool sweaters. Anyway, I thoroughly enjoyed this video.

[@ForeverEclectic]

The way he designed his home, really speaks to me. I love hearing about the history behind the items. I absolutely love this eclectic style. He narrates his home, like an author narrates his own work (such meaning). "I get lost in the beauty of nature and things that weren't designed." Bravo👏🏾👏🏾

However, he does have a huge island in his kitchen.

[@kermitthefrog3632]

Islands are convenient. People just doing the opposite so they can appear edgy. 🙄

Kitchen islands are so useful when one is raising kids, though. To each his own. Love the colors used in the living room and kitchen, and the stories behind the eclectic collections. A very interesting home.

[@debracollier5453]

Stunning house 😮❤! Absolutely love the dark colors and the beautiful items scattered throughout the house. The longer format with the homeowner discussing their design philosophy is on point. Please continue this. Probably my favorite house on your channel so far. 💕💕💕

[@gracec3418]

This designer really grows on you - and it doesn't take long, either. I love some of his collection of furniture - I love even more, that he very generously - and very carefully, gives the name of every designer whose pieces he has in his home. What a very likeable person. And I love his choices.

[@MizJilly]

The fact that he created such beautifully eclectic spaces in a Spanish-style house is incredible. Honors the style with accents rather than the main decor pieces. Brilliant, colorful, and peaceful. I love a dark kitchen, especially since you almost never see them.

[@keithbuchanan8588]

Jilly. The kitchen was ok in the daytime with the lights on!!! At night i'm afraid it would b 2 dark. U couldn't c 2 cook...or anything else!!!

[@MizJilly]

@@keithbuchanan8588 LOL! Hope not. I would imagine he had enough lighting in there for night, but I love the idea of a kitchen that "closes" for the night with just a soft light on for ambiance. I share his dislike for islands, too. They're fun for guests, but if you're cooking a big dinner and need to focus on what you're doing, having people talking to you and staring you down the whole time is not ideal.

[@scottformby2165]

Thanks Jilly! So glad you like it. Appreciate your comment and thoughts.

[@kristaselene]

Those drawer pulls in the kitchen are incredible. I love what was said about collecting objects for the memories, not its monetary value.

thank you Krista!

[@christinadtla2196]

One of my favourite houses on Homeworthy. But most definitely my most favourite LA home shown on Homeworthy. Thanks for sharing!

[@PleasantPrickles]

This man’s house is gorgeously curated! I agree wholeheartedly, a kitchen should be its own entity. So many people these days buy homes and take out all the walls. They forget each room has its own energy and character, which is way more interesting than living in a rectangle with islands. 🌿🐚🌴🍸

[@scottformby2165]

Thanks I love that analogy. Appreciate your words!!

[@fittoseejane]

I agree. I love the concept of rooms! I think the open kitchen concept has come about because people want their kitchen for a showplace rather than cooking meals. Yes, visitors always congregate in the kitchen, so we need a happy medium. He has basically walled off his visitors from entering his kitchen space, and I like it.

[@xxkittymeowxx8093]

I love his sensitivity. Love the dark moody colors.Stevie said she sold this house because there was no parking. It is literally on the street.She said people that came over had to rent a ride and be dropped off and picked up.I am so in love with this house and how he has made it his home.

[@rmonson5002]

That is interesting because I was wondering about parking when I was watching this. You can see that the house is right on the street. I'm assuming he has a typical L.A. back alley access with a garage, but little to no street parking. Love L.A., but parking is always an issue. But who cares, if I have off street parking and THAT house, I'm good with it. Y'all can Uber here and back to visit! Ha!

I love how he loves his home and items, not for display but for stories and art. The dark kitchen with brass, gold and turquoise touches, glass colors and nature, wonderful blend of colors, textures and items without feeling gaudy or chaotic. I was in this house with Stevie, designed her stage clothing. I remembered the front and the view as soon as this bean. Thanks so much. Enchanting is the perfect capsule word for Scott's home.

This is such a beautiful home. He’s so thoughtful about every choice. I love that his mother founded the cowgirl museum. I’ve been to it and as a non cowgirl enjoyed it immensely. There’s definitely a spirit of individualism in his family. Gorgeous home.

Yes I agree.... I found it difficult to connect. No sure why all the charcoal..it clashes with the Spanish design arches inside. Bathroom with orange amd copper punch bowl best part! 🙂

The history of this home is very cool… and I wonder if Scott feels the vibes of the previous owners? I can tell what a talented designer he is, as he has that innate eye and like a designer I work with, does not insist on throwing out pieces, just because they are not “current” or “perfect”. THAT is when you truly love your home… it reflects your interests, past and personality. Scott has that in spades in this gorgeous home.

[@stevefranks1711]

Enjoyed the low key but insightful and interesting tour. Like the use of color and having objects out that are meaningful to the occupant and interesting. Not a dull, spare, beige interior. Thank you for that. My only surprise: not one picture of the great Vilma Banky.

[@tommypsue]

Darkly enchanting indeed, and a soothing relief from the relentlessly white walled (often draining, to me) California aesthetic. One thing about dark rooms with windows/good natural light I never hear mentioned, but that is obvious and _not_ depressing, is how they illuminate the human form--or the light seems to bounce off walls onto people and they emanate a certain subtle glow within windowed walls darkly painted.

[@scottformby2165]

Music to my ears, Tommy. And with all the great light in CA dark rooms are easy to pull off!! The house never feels dark----the kitchen is always alive and it's the darkest part of the house. Almost all of the upstairs is dirty ivory.

Love when *context (terrain, subculture, stucture's architecture) is honored in interiors.This always gives vibrancy. Add to this an owner with substantial taste, a sense of proportion and motion, the dynamism of placement, and one on a dimensional and creative life journey - and you've really got something.

[@ajbcreationsmt]

I love this home and his eclectic design aesthetic. The combination and juxtaposition of precious and ornate pieces/bold patterns/ and spent, and/or found natural items creates such a beautiful, almost melancholy moodiness many people shoot for and fall short of achieving. I also feel compelled to add that I think he is incredibly handsome. He's giving me some heavy Rick Springfield vibes (if Rick Springfield hadn't ruined his face with unnecessary plastic surgery.) I am also quite a fan of Stevie Nicks (and Fleetwood Mac!) and feel like in some way, this is almost a more natural and masculine (for lack of a better term) spin on her more feminine, witchy, overtly gothic style. The title is fitting, he and his home are both incredibly enchanting. By far, my favorite Homeworthy installment thus far!
