Leanne Creates An Oasis With A Bold Black Pool | Restored By The Fords

[@SayYoJ]

I LOVE her design aesthetic!!!! The black pool is CHIC! Beautiful design and home!

[@jarenciogeda3930]

I do too

[@PoeticAmmunition.]

That pool is terrifying

[@ginacrusco234]

I kind of hate the black pool too but I'm going to defend it as a courageous, original leap into the unknown. I would have gone for an electric blue. Love the lanterns.

[@Aoudhubillahi]

First time that I saw their work was with Rock the Block 1. I am very impressed by their work and design style. Leanne seems to have a vast amount of creativity. Pretty impressive brother and sister team.

[@dichang3]

That pool looks horrific. I would never use it.

[@seetodk]

Imagine the terror you’d feel if two kids enter the pool & only one comes out. It’d take forever to try & find a drowning child.

[@terrybear5398]

What a dumb comment.

[@svideos5754]

@@terrybear5398 calm down

[@adrunkwizard]

well it's like any other pool if there's something underwater. the water isn't black, just the tiles. so if something is underwater you'd see it similarly well if it black tiled white tiled or blue tiled, as long as whatever is in the water isn't the same black color

[@REDCLAYHOMESTEAD]

I love how high these two are.

[@audrab27]

Wait till u get drunk and walk into that pool

[@ntombifuthidlamini3372]

The black pool is very scary but interesting at the same time

[@Km.SiuLane007]

That pool is a Hazzard!!! So dangerous when you have kids!!! Need to paint again

[@lilivicordero8077]

Beautiful

[@drewconway7135]

Hate, hate, hate the black lagoon. It looks polluted, like you wouldn’t want to get in it. The kids are going to be terrified of it. I liked all of the bedrooms, and the bathrooms are OK except for the sinks in the master. That’s just weird.

[@SABOREAME68]

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Everything looks good with the exception of the black pool, the owners were nice about it, however, I would have flipped if I come home & find a black pool not cool, all I can think of is "The Creature from the Black Lagoon"

[@Fouloul.]

Everything white and a pop of black. I guessed it from the beginning. All of her renos are : paint everything white and put some black ceiling or sofas so... a pool.

[@DonaBranca735]

A few times in my life I have been scared...that pool is now part of the list. It belongs to a horror movie.

[@reneesmith695]

I wish I could ship my husband somewhere and have Leanne and Steve do do my place! ❤️❤️❤️ Love their work!

[@愛愛愛愛]

🤣

[@elenacapruci2156]

Cei 2 frati foarte talentati si plini de har.

[@jacquelinewilson2279]

Black pool dangerous. Need to be able to see what is in there. In Australia could be a Funnel Web. Anywhere in the world children can fall in et cetera. No No No. The look on Mum's face when she's showing them the "black" pool. Priceless.

[@HauntFreak13]

I love the black pool

[@brendashimenosky8905]

Wish their' show was still available in Canada.

[@isisheggs8065]

Great job and that tile work in the bathroom

[@paulajf4205]

Good job given the restrictive budget, but who wouldn't want a cool mid-century modern fireplace in the bedroom if they can?!!

[@tasteoftakeisha]

I love a black pool

[@litsakoutoula3071]

Hey Leanne there are more colors than white and black. Just saying.. 😁😁

[@taliagreenberg5228]

Love her designs but the pool and pool area didn' t work for me...could have done something else, not necessarily painting the pool black..

[@pattistuber8018]

I can deal with the black pool, but not the gold swan. That looks gawdy.

[@Prieze868]

White never dates and looks relaxed and timeless

[@kathyusa-iowa5137]

FLW water base was natural. And it wasn't "black", it was DARK. I think if it had been done in multiple DARK colors it would have been great. Needed to be different shades of greens, browns, grays, blacks and maybe even some blues! 😮 Oh, and the "balloons" over the pool❓ They just don't integrate in any way. They cheapen the space. 😥

[@tejaswiprasad1738]

"నీ జీవితాన్ని నువ్వు జీవించు" is the statement I saw on the floor of the pool Room which means "live your life"....this language is Telugu which is my mother tongue....It belongs to South India....

[@marshaoflaherty8421]

That black pool would work a LOT better if it had water splashing and running into it.. a la Frank Lloyd Wright style stream.

[@skdoremi6666]

I think it was just a little bit too black maybe a dark brown but not that black it looked like a hole or black splash of paint not a "pool" its not inviting .

[@L.Spencer]

She'd probably paint FLW's house white. It's just so bland. The pool room is weird. I'm just noticing that the wallpaper in the bathroom was the same that we had in our kitchen, here in an apartment in San Diego, except ours was green and yellow, no blue. I remember taking it down about 15 years ago, it was in bad shape. I bet the kids would have preferred the blue bathroom. Let them feel like they live in the Brady Bunch house! The master bath looks smaller, not sure why they're saying it looks bigger. This whole episode seems like a joke.

[@mariannshake4396]

I agree. She loves mid-century, but now let's change it.

[@elpinV]

The black pool is so ugly! No way to have it in the house.its so creepy!!!!

[@erwinsoria]

The blackpool are not a town/area name but literally now a real thing..i love it but i never gonna used it, its scare the shit out of me, like a deep ocean

[@lakeishacampbell2780]

Don't like the black pool its look like you stepping into a body of oil

[@alonzojohnson7955]

Toxic pool look

[@higashirinchiah1013]

I love the black pool....so edgy

[@santacruz7455]

Nobody wants to go swiming in this creepy black pool. The problem with Leannes designs is: they are good for staging but not for living in it.

[@myavabuchanan5556]

No no black in pool. It ruin.

[@nanaranjantongbram7862]

I personally don't like the black pool

[@eleanorgliddon256]

Too much black and white

[@mariannshake4396]

Why why why consistently paint stone! and brick. They were architectural elements. They were part of a design by a very good architect. Why make it look as if it were a fancy plaster job in a tract home? I have seen several of these shows where she has taken a great mid-century home and designed it to death.

[@rubyoro0]

Dude…it wasn’t stone or brick! I am against painting real stone and brick, though.

[@leahronayne8311]

Wow... The only thing worse than fake rock/foam walls might be painting white over them. If they're fake and not original to the house, why not just remove them? The pool could have had deep blue green paint to make it seem like a lagoon. The black is too big of a contrast, doesn't match with anything else and is dangerous. Imagine the kids inviting their friends over to play in the pool and wanting to jump in. How do you know where it's safe? Absolute no for me!

[@rubyoro0]

All the black pool and deck needs is plants to make it seem like a lagoon. As it stands it has nothing to relate to nature. It looks gimmicky.

[@pugthug2016]

First

[@fflubadubb]

Murky

[@jeanetteshawredden5643]

CLICK BAIT. Title talks about a "bold black pool" then we watch the whole video for a nano-second view of it. Don't like your tactics!

[@normabadillo3235]

Don't like the bathroom Island. I would not rely on a decorater to do my home with what they like and use my money for that...It's my place... I pay for it ..I decide what I want and what I like. I don't like surprises that I have to pay for.

[@judyderieux8484]

Wonderful.....Steve needs to cut his hair......sorry but his hair makes him look unkept🥺💖

[@carolrude7814]

The black pool is gross!!!

[@chloebeary]

terrible designers

[@sandravdmerwe804]

Pragtig maar swart swembad, pas nie mooi saam nie.

[@gregoryclark7566]

Black pool was a poor idea and unattractive.. The lanterns above and plastic swans in the pool looked cheap. In this case, the clients got what they paid for. Sometimes, even designers should get 2nd and 3rd opinions before they alter a home with cosmetic mistakes. This home was designed by a student of Wright's. You should encapsulate the best design elements of a master architect, and not subjectively interpret and inject your own misconceptions upon those elements.
