  1. This is design!! This is talent & a place that would be so fun to walk throughout the home. It’s not shades of beige on beige on beige! Gorgeous ❤

  2. This is the best showcase I have seen in a year. The colors are paired in unique but perfect ways. I said wow multiple times outloud

  3. I love how she notes the “walnut cabinets instead of the white oak that everyone – including us have been using for a few years”. Such a beautifully poetic way of saying that. She’s an artist through and through…more like this please❤

  4. I love her imagination and ability to pull off so many different elements that work so well together. Not many designers can pull off what she did.

  5. What a talent. Beautifully done. Loved the kitchen and the living room especially. Loved the wall papers especially the living room one. The rusty red bathroom is just wow.

  6. Increible la eleccion de colores, patrones, textiles, CINTHIA FERGUSON se supera proyecto tras proyecto, estoy enamorado de su estilo !!!!!!!

  7. Finally not boring, not white on white on white!!! I love color, now that said, I would want less pattern, but I do love the color. It's bold, it's happy, it's fun!! I also like wallpaper, but again, less pattern. Also I really love painted cabinets…I just prefer them over wood ones. But mixing a little wood in here and there really breaks up the space and adds warmth. Great job!

  8. I hate some rooms and love others lol the kitchen, mud room, dining room, and laundry room I love. The living room is my least favorite as well as the son’s room. Way too busy. There’s too much pattern every turn. I think the bathroom downstairs wallpaper looks like an old circus. Refreshing to see something different though

  9. So many people like this maximalist design and say it has personality. I on the other hand love the minimalist design of a home where you don't get tired of the bold colors. So it's a preference.

  10. Wow!!! Yes finally a home with color… just loving every inch, every detail of this stunning home… you guys kill it!!!👌 This is truly my favorite design. Wow!!! What a home. I don't think it have enough words to describe the design of the beautiful home.❤👌👍

  11. I love this designer. Love the video of her home tour too. I don't like the wallpaper in the entrance. It reminds me of a brain🧠

  12. I'm sorry but…no. Not for me. Not opposed to all the colors–love the blues–but other than the kitchen, these spaces are just way too much visually, especially the wallpapers and patterns. And, granted, I'm not a teenage boy but my eyes hurt just looking at that blue bedroom. My home is my sanctuary, my refuge from all the s**t Out There–it needs to be calming, peaceful, serene, relaxing. I cannot RELAX in these kinds of maximalist rooms. But at the end of the day, what I think is irrelevant–if the clients love the completed project, then the designer did his or her job, and that's what happened here, so kudos to Cynthia for that.

  13. You could have picked so many better options than the thumbnail you chose! Almost didn't click because it is so similar to other H&H videos. But it was so much better ❤

  14. I love a mixture of patterns and colors, but this one doesn’t appeal to me at all. There’s no coordination. And the trend to use lilac walls and fabrics has run its course, in my opinion, and is very sweet in a little girl’s room only.

  15. I'm not a maximalist, and I wouldn't decorate my entire home like this, but this designer offers great inspiration on how to mix and match patterns, designs, and furniture in a unique way. It's a beautiful video featuring an amazing designer.
