For anyone with popcorn ceilings, I can vouch for how much a smooth ceiling bounces light and brightens a room vs how popcorn absorbs light (and looks dirty). It was the grossest job we've done, but so worth it in the end!

[@Shria9]

UGH I feel you. I live in a rental with popcorn ceilings. I almost want to poke it full of holes to hang stuff but I can't get a hook to pierce it.

[@pippilangkous5089]

Yes, been there, done that😅 But it was definitely worth it!

[@astriddeslandes2373]

My popcorn ceiling is made of asbestos ... I have to leave it 😢

[@tiffanycurtis4794]

I’ll look at it like this some people don’t have ceilings so appreciate them popcorn or not some people have cardboard boxes they called ceilings or just the air outside they call ceilings because they homeless think about it that way

Benjamin Moore Cloud White LRV 85 for folks with a northern exposure. It's like being swathed by the warmth of the sun. It's white, but warm. I'm also in Vancouver, where it is cloudy and rainy for ... ever. This paint lifts the gloom.

We have cloud white in Vancouver too and it works wonders to lift the full colours in winter. To Nick’s point- we also got a cat tree from Agile and I’d argue it’s one of the better looking cat Rees we could find (also the colours of it go well with cloud white)

[@monkeybusiness1999]

Thank you!! :)

Be careful removing popcorn ceilings as some of the popcorn contains asbestos. Always check before starting, even homes built in the 90's occasionally have this.

I have a 40 year old house with dark furniture I won't give up, so white and soft neutrals are my friends! And I am a clean and tidy person; it's amazing how much that contributes to a calming, light environment. No dark granite counters or black appliances or heavy drapery in my world. Sheer window treatments bring light in through smallish windows. Love table lamps, and recessed lights in kitchen and halls. And not overstuffing your rooms with furniture that doesn't really contribute to what the room is about.

[@elizabethkragas3588]

Hi Nick, I fell so guilty after watching your video, that I cleaned my living space. It didn’t really take that long and I feel so much better!😃

I'm pumped for the dark & moody overview too. I like a "cozy" mix of light and moody, which has made it challenging to decide exactly what "mood" I'm creating in general.

[@redburningfires]

Same here, love a mix of dark and moody with light contrast mixed in. Working on decorating my light grey apartment that has dark taupe/black laminate flooring.

[@georgia777]

We painted our small 1970s ranch house with only 9 windows in the entire house with B. Moore Crisp Linen with a LRV 89.63. We painted the walls, ceilings, and all woodwork the same color and it made our rather dim house with standard height ceilings extremely bright and light.

[@joanvoss7512]

Good work 👏

[@createone100]

I absolutely love and adore Benjamin Moore Crisp Linen! Used it on our new bathroom vanity and crown molding, and then again above the chair rail in our remodeled bedroom. We are using it for all the cabinets in our new den and office. Beautiful warm cream! I cannot understand why the B.M. guy hasn’t raved about Crisp Linen.

[@georgia777]

@@createone100 Talking to the B. Moore guys in my local store, Crisp Linen is hardly ever sold. My father would rave about my walls and how they glow when my parents came to visit. But my dad, being cheap, would never pay the price for the high end B. Moore Aura paint.

I thought white would be a great choice for my bathroom until I painted a poster board white and saw it in there. It was so bright--and it was at the end of December! The skylight, the shiny white tile, and the location (sunny Denver) made the room too bright for white. I painted it a medium shade of lavender and it was perfect.

The lower furniture trick is a gem & works well in rooms with 7'-9' celings. Just be sure guests can get up & off of sofas & chairs comfortably. (Choosing seating with arms is ideal.)

Looking forward to dark and moody! I watched this one to do the opposite, because I’m all about the moody. So, thanks for anticipating those of us on the other side!

[@sandradavis7132]

I now need a Nick video on cat trees.

[@Laroling]

I am just making one lol 😂

[@EcoExist-qs1ue]

I really appreciate these straightforward tips. I'm returning to Fairbanks, Alaska, where winter daylight is scarce, and homes typically have older features like small windows, chinked log walls, and strange ceiling angles for enhanced insulation. Most Fairbanks homes were constructed before 1979, and new construction is rare due to the high costs associated with shipping materials and labor. Affording anything beyond a hovel isn't feasible with our fairly average income. So, I'm a huge fan of practical interior design advice for cost-effective renovations. Essentially, we aim to make things look less depressing without breaking the bank. If we can't do it ourselves, it doesn't happen. The saying “If it ain't broke, don't fix it, and if it is broke, break out the duct tape.” is really taken to heart up there, and unfortunately, most people's homes reflect this mindset.

[@AnonymousOnimous]

Thank you Nick for filling us in on the more technical and the more intuitive ways to improve our homes! I'd also really love to know more about sustainable interior design choices. There's so much green washing that it can be a bit tricky to tell what's genuinely beneficial vs just advertising.

[@larizzo]

Yess! I fully agree, I have a really hard time telling what is a good investments and what is a waste in that area. I've been watching for a while now and I'm always hoping he'll do a video on that at some point.

[@martifinan998]

You and your delivery are so funny. Great reminders and great anticipation built for next week's dark and moody. I'd also love to see you cover good design in a finished basement (like, basements in post-war basements in more modest homes rather than giant McMansion basements).🏡

[@AnnNunnally]

Glass block windows are apparently out of style, but I love the one in my bathroom. It really lights up the area and cheers me up every morning.

[@stefs3460]

My friend invested in pretty cat furniture. It does exist but good looking "cat trees" may be more accessible diy. It's possible but a lot of work. Cats do need 1. Surfaces to scratch; but these can be replaced often so they don't look ratty 2. Vertical space ; this can be floating shelves with a few books or other unbreakables on it that they can navigate to other parts of the room. Part of it should start in front of a window they can look out of, if you have an upholstered chair that to a cat is perfection. Then something not far away they can jump to like a floating shelf or cabinet or desk, then the top of a Billy bookcase can be the end point.

[@vaderladyl]

Yes, they do sell pretty cat stuff for them to jump on and climb but they can be costly as well.

[@doodiehutchison4463]

I love dark and moody; looking forward to next week’s video.

[@Shria9]

I feel very privileged that my kitty overlords are willing to share their space with me so I am not at all averse to putting in a cat tree, paying the rent, buying the food and cleaning up after them. But, yeah, it would be nice if there were prettier cat trees. Not that they would stay that way for long but yeah. You should do a video about home decor ideas that work for catification (check out Jackson Galaxy) and don't look like you live in a cat cafe. In other words, please help me, I belong to three very active cats who won't use a litter box in a cabinet. Just a heads up, Jackson knows cats but not decorating. Please don't tell him I said that. Thanks.

This is EXACTLY the video I needed. My fiance and I have ended up with a lot of antique furniture in dark mahogany and walnut. Between that, our small townhouse, having few windows, and gravitating towards green as a fabric color of choice, I've been feeling so stuffy recently at home. I've been trying to salvage it, and now I think I finally know where to start to make the space seem brighter and give it some overall more clarity.

Thank you for enlightening me about LRV! I did not know that is listed with the paint colors! I just recently had 2 rooms of my apartment painted and it was very difficult to pare down, I’m still working on it because everything loose had to be moved out into other rooms and it was quite a jenga. I was thinking of light and bright, and my paint choice is 83 LRV, I have lots of windows and I’m happy with the color. I’m glad you spoke about color in the furnishings, because light and bright is not just white or neutrals. I think from my experience of the last few weeks of doing this, the most crucial part is curating the decor. Very hard for me as an avid thrifter and loving seasonal decor. There just has to be less to achieve light and bright. Thank you for all your insights!
