My Place: Tchaik Chassay and Melissa North's Hockney Home

When London-based interior designer Melissa North first visited the apartment she now calls home, it was a run-down shared house filled with artists, including then-unknown painter and pop art master David Hockney. Years later, and after her architect husband Tchaik Chassay had redesigned the apartment for Hockney, the pair live in the artist’s former home. Read more on NOWNESS - bit.ly/2fg7hsh

when I came to live in London in 1978, I would sometimes stand for ages opposite this apartment hoping to encounter my art hero David Hockney who I'd seen living and working here in 'A Bigger Splash'....I never did see him as he was obviously long gone by then but I did end up having dinner with him a few years later. Wonderful to 'revisit' this iconic apartment albeit in video.

These two are relationship goals!!! Perfect yin & yang and so much synergy and calm understanding full of compassion radiates even through this video.... Love!

[@haret0n]

Best thing about this video is the way she looks at him so adoringly.

ive watched this and the devendra episode on repeat for the past 3 years

[@londekandukuda3422]

These videos are my absolute favorite!!!

[@sandramalone3522]

Love the turquoise color on the walls and love those amazing plants that drape over into the dinning area, it's just fabulous living in such a wonderful home.

[@timeandplace4114]

I absolutely love the kitchen cabinets. Definitely could not find them here in the states. Saving the video because one can dream and perhaps I can find a carpenter with the skill, an open mind and desire to create not just build. I love books also!! However; I now donate to the library club to sell & make money for the public library.

I love all your work. Just enough, with a flowing intensity. Genius editing. Thank you very much.

[@MTMF.london]

Love the watery blues and greens on walls, tiles and furniture. The long white leather sectional sofa is what I've been dreaming of owning one day. The whole place is so unassuming yet has an easy elegance.

When you're a constant reader the books's piles grow up like some kind of plants.

[@Madmogs1]

The music in background is overbearing

I agree! Ugh, so distracting. In general, background music is super annoying.

Maybe you need to get your hearing checked?

The music is way too up in the mix. Why even have them do an interview if you’re going to play music over it?
