Inside Shonda Rhimes' 1920s Style Home Study | Open Door | Architectural Digest

[@Drea3000]

Things I want after watching this video: 1. A floral dress 2. A Library 3. Nine more copies of To Kill A Mockingbird 4. A step ladder 5. An Emmy/Peabody/NAACP Image Award I think I’ll start with the step ladder.

[@donnareid9127]

I am inspired by her reading and writing can open so many doors

[@lucamolta]

3. A successful writing career 4. A fireplace to write by 5. Comfy chair

[@tamiekaaugusta4058]

THIS cracked me up AND read my mail at the SAME time! 😂😒😳

[@godmadesam]

Andrea Harville lol

[@arandaholley1719]

As a kid I wanted a ladder with wheels to glide around my massive home library.

[@MsCristina38]

Wow, she’s pretty engaging as a person. So happy for all her success. Lovely room.

[@MNeathway]

Madame Cristina Yeah she seems so down-to-earth!

[@silvertrees6326]

You cannot have too many books..

[@lenar.6561]

I love how enthusiastic she is about her artworks! Also incredibly jealous of her book collection

[@wandahost]

Me too.

[@Aezra27]

I demand the whole house!!!😍

[@roxanneworld11]

ikr? basically what i commented above, too! i'm so curious. 🕵️

[@shaniajackson7864]

Beautiful home

[@lolasoby6179]

Yes please

[@vonciamolock2490]

EXACTLY

[@Eadig]

Love that dress and her study is gorgeous! She's such a Queen 😍

[@PHlophe]

her Bunda though !

[@TheDarkDresser]

Eadig You stole my comment. Love the dress!

[@plathpat1]

I agree

[@kassypele4662]

Me too.. I am not listening to her rather thinking about the dress.

[@Fatima-up8lw]

I love how she said to her daughter, "when you have a trophy, not if you have a trophy it'll go up in the room". Positive reinforcement in young children is so important.

[@kristyolsen6094]

Built in bookshelves are FABULOUS

[@whimsicallymine]

Wow it’s so clear why she’s a master storyteller. I’m so entranced by everything she says

[@anneparham]

One of the most interesting things is Shonda’s usage of “her face is facing the camera, her face is turned away from the camera” sort of comment because its not a photograph but she sees it from the tv perspective versus the painting viewpoint

[@P_Belle]

so perceptive of you!

[@TheAllysonB]

Can we get a tour of the rest of the house?!?

[@stylecollective-qt9um]

Curated collections of your favorite books & authors, armchairs, the perfect table for 'discussion in the round": it's informal, cozy room for an academic - love it.

[@vanityfair001]

I love how passionate Shonda is about her "room"/library. It's so nice to hear her speak about her own taste instead of what some designer told her would be best for her. When you are truly comfortable with your own personal style it shines. Her library looks very welcoming.

[@sarahjames8658]

So good to see where such a brilliant mind creates.

[@laurenmiller149]

such an intriguing room! especially the shape of it! I'd love to see the rest of her home.

[@maliksmama]

She's absolutely right. There's no such thing as too many books!

[@patrickbell4314]

I love that she shared her favorite room only. Her house should remain private for herself and her children. Thanks for sharing such a beautiful inspiring room, Shonda.

[@azabujuban-hito-dake]

I love those mismatched chairs around that round table💙 Looks more modern than the all-matching set of chairs.

[@billysmith1480]

This video makes me feel jealous, not as smart as I think I am, and awestruck at how much grace and intelligence can reside in one person. What a gem.

[@aliterarylady609]

"You can never have too many books." I love you Shonda 👏👏👏

[@idontknow-ms8mc]

Why wasn't this on trending, she's a legend, and does a better job giving a tour of this one room than some of the other celebs on this series did of their whole houses.

[@Monique-rn9lg]

What a charming space. Yes, girl..... don't hide your light! Display those awards.... you worked hard for them.

[@ceeceegreene2126]

Absolutely stunning, I just love people who love books and reading. 💕

[@sunflowerpwr.8821]

Happy she is realizing her dream and I love her study so much ❤️💙♥️.

[@wandahost]

Shonda I'm in love with your study room. All those gorgeous books. Can I move in?Kisses from Portugal. We need the whole house tour.😍😍😍

[@anellawrites]

Shonda’s favorite room, is my favorite room. I dream of having a room full of books. I want to be on her list of people she loans books too.

[@sonagray3176]

Absolutely LOVE the 1920s home study & beautiful dress! The article & pictures of your home was a great glimpse into your style.

[@sadadevries5875]

She gave us grey’s and htgawm... legend

[@inmediasres2409]

And Private Practice and Scandal. Super duper legend!

[@popicelolly]

She has great taste. Love her collection of books as well.

[@nickirowe]

I love the brightness of the room.

[@VK-kd7ug]

Love it. Love the paintings! What a great space. Thank you for sharing.

[@BBouigieLaw]

Absolutely loved this study/library. I’m glad she shared her space.

[@ryanamari2233]

i love the video and the binding of the books...the vintage covers ads to the 20s theme of her study

[@kudos2u544]

man the book covers.. so dope

[@theonlycontessa]

You are a marvellous lady. Thank you for your spellbinding dramas.

[@Paslayas]

Beautiful room, exactly what I envision how I want my own library/office room. Grow up we had a library room, I miss it.

[@Ms.NIkaDM]

I truly admire this woman. ❤️

[@marty1159]

What an amazing woman. Bravo for all that you are, have, received and given in the arts.

[@LiamDzCarWash]

I could listen to her speak all day!

[@teddybruce]

the butterfly mask is made by the Bwa tribe of Burkina Faso, West Africa

[@sihars7214]

She writes intense drama, but her personality is so bubbly. I like her😊

[@deirdre6055]

Her dress is amazinggggg 😍😍

[@XimenaZhaoArchive]

I need to see her whole house! 🏡 I bet it’s a real life Shondaland!

[@scarletgray7443]

U have made me cry more than anyone else in my life. I grew up watching greys I have a relationship w everyone in the show. I love u

[@emmiejackson7554]

I was wrong...it's Hughie Lee-Smith! Well, Shonda, you have introduced me to another great artist --- Thanks!!

[@flayful]

All those beautiful hardbound classic boooookkksssss~ 😍 And a FIREPLACE!!! Egads, the feels.

[@TheOnlyTisha]

I love that her writing space isn’t a traditional office space. It just a comfortable room filled with her favorite things where she likes to write and not an oppressive office with a desk and a chair and a lamp.

[@navyforeveryoungjean-phili5940]

You guys need to give her an hour or more. She is the perfect tour guide. HONESTLY AD. GIVE HER AN HOUR FOR HER WHOLE HOUSE AND GARDEN

[@anajadorcas5113]

I didn't want it to finish!!!*bawling* Yo Shonda! Can I live with you??

[@mon6745]

🔥 in the summer!!! I love shonda!😍

[@HeyitsKimberlee]

Her book is so good. And, like another person commented, she’s so engaging in this video, love that.

[@aminohomie7414]

This house is so cosy and looks so comfortable and not like a museum and it's not that empty, it's lovely.😍

[@MerveilleK]

She has such a soothing voice...

[@elainemcdonald1463]

Just have to say I love the productions this lady comes up with,,, big fan of all her work,, she’s a star🇮🇪🙂

[@ICHMUSSMALPIPI]

This is such a dream study 😍 She has an amazing and interesting style

[@Blueprintforauthors]

Ok so we need to see the rest of Shonda Rhimes house I get the feeling each space is just as interesting.

[@joannejones363]

Am the only one who noticed the architect was a Grey?

[@kittylicious9270]

So meant to be

[@camilogomezkeep2324]

This woman is amazing! Such an inspiration!

[@anniebanana3698]

Oh dang, I should've checked the description box. I was just getting into it when it started to close out. I loved how she shared such an intricate origin story to so many of the pieces that made up the room. Was looking forward to a while house tour.

[@JeremyTalksWitU]

THAT WAS ITTTT I WANT THE WHILE HOUSE TOUR WHAT A CLIFFHANGER

[@shrimpgeisha]

[@ayhdiv84]

The paintings! 😍

[@reefromthesouth]

[@pizzaraia1040]

* wipes tear * I just fell in love twice...with her and with this room

[@cardion411]

Love, love, love this.

[@Posh_Spice89]

Great tips for when I have my own library in my future home.

[@obedientostrich811]

[@ucheesomonu9098]

I love the way she talks

[@miiilaa100]

[@jaboubaa928]

My daughter who loves reading and reviews books will feel great in your library.

[@jalensera]

This is officially my favorite Open Door.

[@mimimc8685]

Her study is my dream room.

[@dan-ce8bb]

I love the green vase. And the paintings

[@aprilshorty4094]

Just how I imagined her house to be beautiful and eclectic

[@juanitajames350]

I also have the 100 greatest books ever written collection-AWESOME!

[@graceonyschuk756]

Oh she seems so lovely. I mean sometimes I get upset with her on killing of greys characters, but she is a smart cookie, and shes probably a hoot to be around!

[@mmlangner]

Thank you! I love her work!

[@renatamitchell9535]

Exceptional. 🌷

WOW I would probably also never leave this room if it was in my house.

[@XactlyCeSe1]

She's an inspiration!!

[@janelevey3435]

Beautiful!

[@harrietsutton9799]

I love the Dolce and Gabbana dress!

[@HarmonySearcher]

I thought I was the only one that had whole collections of books (because you have to have the set of course!) Then again mine are only paperbacks! But I love them all the same....thank you Ms Rhimes I don't feel half as nerdy as I did 5 minutes ago :D

[@huntingtonparkway]

WE WANT TO SEE THE HOUSE!

[@Shantased]

BEAUTIFUL JUST BEAUTIFUL THANK YOU FOR SHARING SHONDALAND YOUR FAVORITE ROOM👑💙💯
