The irony of me filming this video in a neutral space is not lost on me haha. For the new people, I started decorating from scratch a year ago and it's a slow process. We have color in other parts of the apartment I promise!!

Hi Benji! I never leave comments but felt that I should today because I realized how long I’ve been watching your videos now and how much of an impact you have had on me. I started watching your channel when you moved into your apartment with Chris after college. We’re about the …

I love the Caroline Winkler and Ariel Bisset shoutouts! You, Paige, and those 2 are the 4 home decor channels I follow, all different styles but I really respect the vision of each creator.

Now that more and more creators rely on AI prompts for their fast paced bullet point videos, I appreciate your authenticity even more and how much you truly care about the process of interior design. Your videos are always both calming and inspiring. 🙏🏻 thank you!

A very inexpensive way to try out a color palette is, once you think you found your palette, to go to a craft store to the paper craft section. There are sheets of 12x12 cardstock in lots of colors for purchase by the sheet. There are also pads of colors in bright, pastels, jewel…

Personally, i love this look: white walls with colored art & textiles + books+ plants. These are my favorite spaces !! And they usually age well...

I know this home will never be the same as your first home that you lost, but Im happy to see how youve made this space into your own and you seem to be really happy with the place.

Hi Benji: I went through a divorce more than a decade ago and color became a huge “thing” for me. I painted the inside of my bathroom vanity a vibrant teal color and every time I opened it I had a real rush of happiness. Highly recommend!

I was trying to focus on what Benji was saying because I’m actually interested in the topic, but I just couldn’t take my eyes off Winnie. This cutie totally stole my attention 😆

@Eve65901

This was so helpful!!! You talk about all the struggles I’ve had with trying to introduce color. I’ve been doing it quite haphazardly and not satisfied with the results but unsure what to do. This has given me some good ideas! Ugh I love your videos so much. Not only do they pr…

You should thrift different night stands for each side of the bed! And then paint those the blue you want. I feel like the space is asking for a grain of asymmetricality

I love warm colors in my home but my wardrobe is a lot of black, white and blue. Not saying the wardrobe tip is bad advice but also don’t feel stuck on that! I think clothing taste can be very different from interior and that’s perfect fine

My cat Junior loves to have my attention and lays on my desk and tries to hold my arm in his paws.

@mwilliamanderson

Your idea to paint some Ikea end tables Inchyra Blue would be a perfect contrast to the warmer tones in there! I think it would look great.

I love the examination of colour. Very insightful! Winnie gets ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ for her excellent work as a supervising producer of this video.🤭

I'm slowing adding green in my living room and kitchen, cushions, throws, pots and pans. I like neutral walls. Add colour with rugs. I like your star garland, it looks crocheted from a distance. Good way to add a pop of colour. I want to go mid century modern, pops of burn…

This is great advice. I just got my first piece of furniture that isn’t made of natural wood. A very blue storage cabinet 💙

Benji, you really nailed it! This is one of the best explanations I've seen on color for interiors. I agree that having a cohesive color palette that is consistent throughout your space is probably the #1 best way to start. The advantage of using the same or similar colors in …

Benji I have watched you for quite some time. I do appreciate the realization that you need to reinvent yourself after the fire and I sympathize with that. You however, are not lonefoxhome. I feel like your interior design videos are disingenuous at best and mostly to have a vide…

I looked up at my closet when you said to look at your clothes for color inspiration, and I saw an overwhelming amount of brown, which is hilarious because I’m watching this video because my home is in fact all wood
