VLOG Decorating My Loft & Apartment Tour!

[@uthandophumelele]

1. Never in my life have I seen a Black interior designer and I'm so pleasantly surprised I got to see that here AND she was dope 2. I've also never seen so many POC involved in interior design projects I love it! 😊😍🙌

[@rekopilebelebesi2720]

Unacceptable ! We need to fix that. Google me darling :-) lol

[@bobbiesindhar5554]

Check out nastaza's channel, she is also amazing

[@RR-dg1rj]

I'm going to school for interior design so add another black woman to that 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@catherinecampbell1215]

@@RR-dg1rj I am also a black woman going to school for interior design in the fall.

[@catherinecampbell1215]

There are some on KZbin. I particularly enjoy watching Sandy Saintilus.

[@viintaget]

She did such a dope job really capturing your Brooklyn style with soul and creativity !!

[@deias.721]

I love it!!!

[@4LADYSWEET]

Yes!! That library wall was HGTV status!! 📚

[@RooHue]

The space is stunning. The only thing that’s bothering me is how close the table and chairs are to the fridge.

[@YodiRoberts]

she can put a screen to separate both areas but that is a loft apartment

[@RooHue]

The table is just too big for the spot they put it in.

[@kaileighlewis4571]

Same I saw the first shot of it and was like okay maybe they're gonna move it, then they did the walk-through and it was still there. I don't see how she can open the fridge with it so close

[@RooHue]

Kaileigh Lewis my exact thought process! She did say aesthetic >function though. But for me, being able to open my fridge is nonnegotiable.

[@TheDaneyeledee]

RooHue I feel you! And there’s enough space to pull the table and chairs back from the fridge a bit. I L O V E her space; it’s very similar to mine. However, that kitchen layout could defo be different

[@Amorantasia1]

I’m so glad that you’re promoting a fellow AA sister’s business! Much love 💕✊🏾

[@eternitysafro1083]

This was beautiful and I was very happy to see a black interior designer. When I go into real estate and need someone to style the house for walk throughs I know who to call.❤️

[@evelynj.amponsah8417]

Kudos to your Home Designer. She listen to you as the client and incorporated things you love and had. Love that little nook when you come in the door..Great job to the Home designer.

[@stevezytveld6585]

*Suggestion for the scratch on the table* - Please don't use a wood filler. It will always look dinky and fillers shrink over time. Go Wabi Sabi. Paint the scratch gold (first you sand & prime, then red paint, then gold for maximum flash and depth). Celebrate life's imperfections. I am so amazed by your space. It is truly stunning. Don't be afraid to incorporate family history into your home. Let your pride shine. - Cathy (&, accidently, Steve), Ottawa/Bytown

[@neesie2good]

I love seeing Fifty getting in the way of everything. Soooooo stinkin cute!

[@nkosilindilendlovu]

So cute

[@angiej45]

Your interior designer seems so passionate and absolutely in love with this . And I love it ! I really enjoy seeing people so passionate in their work 😂😍

[@adoseofdorian]

The Funeral Procession artwork is such a classic piece in black art!!! 🙌🏽 I’m waiting for my mother to pass it down to me

[@remireto7773]

Fifty’s like “so hows my space finna look” lol. He’s definitely an artsy dog the way he taking everything in.

[@ItsSunshyne]

I can’t wait until I’m stable and able to decorate my home. This is inspirational

[@TheBrokeMinimalist]

Wow!! It turned out sooo good!! I loved the floating shelves, entry way, and the bookshelf behind the couch. We stan our sis using another sis who’s an interior designer!! Yasss, Kia!!

[@michellehiemstra3041]

Man I am feeling the ish out of this space and Fifty is the cutest ever! The fro is why I stopped, the content is why I subscribed and Fifty will be why I stay forever. Do your thing sis I am all about it!

[@chunyp]

50 is the manager of this project. He has to check everything out lol so cute

[@Therealkluvv]

Seeing such a talented black interior designing is so refreshing! I LOVE the place!

[@KiimKash]

Oh, you’re editing editing! We peep the work!

[@williams4146]

This is the stuff I watch and I'm like "I'm going to change my life and my home and redesign and live so much more chic!" then I go home and don't do a thing lolol

[@kayalex83]

Yes chile... everything you said 😅

[@---mb6xq]

Lmao same 🤣😩

[@Lynn-cv2pz]

I've never scene a styling vlog with so much perspective! And love to see all the POC coming together. A breath of fresh air from all the stark marble montages. Be blessed!

[@Kiitanaxo]

This is so dope! Giving me sooooo much inspo!

[@artsygirlify]

I aint gonna lie I was kinda worried the way she explained it and not coming in with some illustrated plans but MAN she did the dang thang!!! KUDOS to this sistah! And I love love the neutrals. Sometimes artists need a relief from color to refresh and rejuvenate when it comes back to doing our artwork or creativity. Sometimes the eye and brain need a break from vibrancy. So I get the idea of a calming soothing neutral space to relax in an oasis home. I LOVE IT!!

[@flowersafeheart]

Love various ways books were displayed, repurposing of items the client already had, coherent color story, and seems like such an expression of the client's interests and style. Excited to see the rest of the home's decor videos. Designer seems really pleasant to work with.

[@rozwalkerstylist]

You and your designer have a beautiful energy together and your personal style is truly You! Congratulations.

[@DWillz251]

This space is absolutely amazing.... you really picked the perfect designer for your aesthetic. Love her vibe and yours collectively

[@4LADYSWEET]

💯

[@taliyahbradford7555]

i am praying that i’m blessed enough to have a space this beautiful when i’m older

[@zceli3147]

Whoever's holding the camera did a phenomenal job recording.

[@algblessed1975]

absolutely Love your space. it's giving me a Boho chic vibe without looking trashy cheap and thrown together. I love the earth tones and this space doesn't look like others on YT with all of the bling, white and gray.

[@styleago-go3028]

I love how Fifty is supervising the whole thing and trying to play on his new rug while you two struggle! haha

[@AngelasTravelAdventures]

I love what she did with your space!! She is very talented! I love how it all flows and is very welcoming and relaxing! Great job. Cant wait to see what she does next!

[@lustforlo]

SO well done. huge kudos to your home designer. love that she was so keen on using all the things you already had. it’s styled so well and so warm. im inspired!

[@karencorban607]

Such a beautiful transformation of the space. Interior decorator is an absolute genius.

[@OliviaAkumu]

I LOVE that you took us on the journey with the interior designer and discussed the style choices. Also great to confirm that you can re-purpose so much of what you have in your space already and make it work.

[@ayonnazglam9050]

She did a great job!!!! Definitely gave me idea on what type of styles I would like to do my room. 😃

[@wearilive]

Turned out so beautiful! both have such nice taste

[@BrandiJess]

50 was in everybody’s business the whole time. Lol. This space turned out GREAT!

[@brittanymcmcmc9730]

This is unrelated to this video but I found your videos through first, the tour of the RealReal space in NY, then your thrifting videos made me subscribe. Your overall attitude is so appealing but more than that, you make me more confident in my finding of preloved/thrifted finds. I don't know why anyone would pay full price when you can find something in great condition for a better price (although like you I will admit to buying some things on full price...)- and your lookbooks really bring me inspiration!

[@deborahhuffman3231]

I love your coffee table and rug and the shelf's on the wall look so good. It all looks so beautiful. Great job on decorating.

[@JennaRevamped]

Eneia did suuuuuch an amazing job with this space. I love the smart use of paint to warm up the walls and add character. Gorgeous!

[@theebajanqueen6599]

Eneia did a great job. Your apartment is stylish, welcoming and cosy at the same time.

[@RamonaGrace]

I love that she explained her design process. So helpful 😩 everything came out so perfect!

[@AprilDThompson]

So glad I found this. Been struggling with what to do with wall space with 15ft ceilings. Love the color blocks to break up the space. I will be doing this soon!

[@idalisrideout]

Sis I been peepin your apartment decor on your IG praying that you would make a video for it! THIS LOOKS INCREDIBLE! So inspired, wow. Cant wait to see the other rooms as well.

[@noface____]

Does the interior designer have a KZbin channel cause wow, this space is stunning!! And I love the color blocking. Having a clean look while not wanting to commit to just one color has been my struggle so I might just try that for my daughter’s nursery 🥰

[@kathleenharris8824]

Your dog Fifty is the Project Manager. He just wants to make sure everything is good for his mom and for his chilling out places in the loft. Looking beautiful!

[@morgancrosby4190]

I loved how you guys walked through the importance of the designs and the stories as you said within it. Super helpful and gorgeous!!!

[@mreneekennysqueen6137]

She’s really talented. Your home looks amazing. 🌻

[@Vibesbypeach]

I love that your home is stylish, eclectic, feels lived in, etc. Love it!

[@thunter6923]

The bookshelf behind the couch, may have to use that idea. And I liked the double rugs and accent wall.

[@juliew1426]

It looks so amazing! Very elegant with clean lines, yet earthy, a touch boheme. I'd say she got your style down. Love your pup, btw. He doesn't want to miss a thing. He's definitely the prince of his palace.

[@sandebryant3878]

She and her staff did an amazing job. Your loft is absolutely GORGEOUS!!! The color palette is the bomb.

[@Shekxs]

What a beautiful transformation and those floating shelves !!!!!😍

[@christinawright2040]

Wowwww. So simple but filled with so much personality and character. I really love your space Kia!

[@BabiBritt88]

Omg 50 was going crazy! He had to check out everything you brought in his house lol. This is soooo dope! Love your vibe!

[@Maria-qc8pj]

Wow, I’m in love with your home! Major inspiration. Where did you ladies pick up the living room rug?

[@rashida9693]

The way she describes the moments she wants to create, reminds me of Genevieve who used to have a show on hgtv. It feels so good to see this Black interior decorator work what she knows!

[@Etinosajogbevoen]

Where is that 9x12 carpet from? I’m fangirling over it

[@EbsMileHighAdventure]

She did an amazing job and she has such good energy!

[@judy2053]

ugh Kia you're always putting out quality. Love it so much! Your apartment is a dream!!!

[@lmulhollen]

I need 5,000 more of these videos. Your loft is beautiful, I'm obsessed with your style, I'm obsessed with your designer's style - wow wow wow - my life will be lacking until their are more episodes.

[@shedocs]

"The end of average"the book even sounds juicy...gotta look it up..good look ❤ ur style

[@npsck1802]

I absolutely love those gray paint squares. That is so brilliant and creative and it just makes the room feel so filled with personality and flavor.

[@sidoniedavy1928]

Wow, nice👍🏾👍🏾. YASSSSS you mirrored exactly how much Paris means to me. I visited there and could not believe I was there 💯🙏🏽

[@RosaLopez-zw2ff]

Wow! What an awesome transformation of your beautiful living spaces. 👍🏼

[@Beatn03]

Had to say WOW out loud when I saw the coffee table. Really enjoyed this vlog great job

[@ESmithonlyonthursday]

All of your videos are such an event, a vibe. I wish I could just chill on this channel all day. Plus this is my third or fourth apartment with you and you pick THE COOLEST spaces.

[@KeraAriyel]

I'm in love with your place!!! 😍

[@MARIOLANZO]

For the scratch (if it’s not already repaired) add some gold metallic inlay. Btw book lover here too so loving the hardcover drips in the space. 📚

[@MayatheGolden]

The first area you showcased is so cute! I think it’s be even more elevated with some lighting [esp over the family heirloom artwork]

[@audreydinsmore3566]

this comment is really random and two months after the video was posted and this is the first video of her’s I’ve seen, but I love the way she did advertised for skillshare. it didn’t feel like she was delivering information about how she has used skillshare in the past, she was actually explaining how it helped her now and included it in telling the story of her redesigning of her apartment. it flowed so smoothly with the rest of the video!

[@freetobeashley]

The content!!! We love to see it 🙌🏽 I'm looking forward to the rest of this series

[@TabbySiamAbby]

I loooove that wall with the floating shelves, I'd love something like that. Also, both women gave me great vibes, both gorgeous too~

[@lingywashere]

LOVE LOVE LOVE! When I say she did that!!!! I love how she kept you in mind the entire time! So dope

[@MsLaBajo]

8:32 I was like, “Finally some color!” Nope. Painted over the blue with white. 🤣

[@katbrax8622]

Talk about using everything in the room to your advantage. From the color scheme to functionality,I LOVE IT!!💯💕💕

[@sunflowerbutterfly7023]

Your mirror, books, that couch, all those plants, the Harlem renaissance pic and fifty are some of my favs, enjoy, embrace, exhale. Peace and blessings. Namaste 🌻🦋

[@armanithurman8267]

I saw y'all struggle with the rug. You should look into one of those plastic liners to give it some grip

[@rebeccadlubac9115]

I love that contrasting paint color! Beautiful!

[@naturallyshar]

Loved how 50 layered himself on the rug too lol

[@kopykat3885]

whenever I see this woman i think... this is exactly where I wanna be when I am 30. 🤩🤩🤩

lol

[@Quarantina4ever]

Same. And I’m 31 lol

[@th3azscorpio]

@@Quarantina4ever Keep pushing. You'll get there 😉.

[@Bubzietown]

You should have goals but that age thing will ruin you. Focus on what you want but don’t make age a part of it.

[@kopykat3885]

@@Bubzietown thank you. I really needed to hear this :) ❤

[@fruitofthespiritgalatians5856]

I love the glass/table seeing the rug😍. Where did the black and white rug come from? Great job!!!

[@Bubzietown]

Her interior designer is so cute!! Omg she seems so easy to work with!

[@shawnise311]

I randomly found your channel, and I LOVE your aesthetic. Your vibe is just.......YES! I’m feeling this space!!! Looks like good company and dope conversations that last all night

[@jop5400]

I keep rewatching this. I can't wait for the next part. The only part I would've liked slightly different for myself is the kitchen layout and space. I like how it's not exactly like every other new home decor video.

[@small_Bun]

Literally cannot fault your space, you've great style! Also Eneia's jumper is so cute love this

[@Oliviat1213]

Where is the main huge 9x12 grey and black stripe rug from!! ??

So proud of you Kia you've come a long way. I hope you don't mind my viewing you and others in your age group as my imaginary daughters. I truly appreciate smart people who are captains of their own vessel. I can't wait to see the rest. 👍❤

[@Toastyy.design]

Do you have a link for that gorgeous gray/white stripey rug? I'm looking for something just like it for my space!
