Interior Design: A Dark Gloomy Home Is Reborn With Tons Of Personality

A dark, gloomy home in Toronto’s West End is given a shot of personality by homeowner and designer Jean Ross of Row Design Studio, complete with a gallery wall of painted portraits of mystery subjects. See how she maxes out space with a living room banquette, opened up the floorplan, and used budget Ikea cabinets in the kitchen.

So glad to finally see a different, warmer, cozier aesthetic on your channel! Love this home.

I love seeing something different, eclectic, and provocative. HNH has been very one note the last several years.

This is so lovely.Full of style and light. So many of the homes featured are so similar: this one is unique and warm and appears designed to evoke a smile.

[nataliaan]

Probably best I’ve seen here. Not the same repetitive stuff. ❤❤❤

[marinathomas]

Finally, a beautiful home full of character!

I LOVE how layered and collected everything is. It comes together so beautifully.

Never saw such a home like this on this channel. I really love the vibe that this very lovely lady had done to this house. Before she said it at the end of the video, i saw all these elements (and others) throughout these really good used minutes of my time. Every element looks like you are there, where it is normally found. It has exactly this character and nothing else. It was kind of hard to believe. Meant in the most positive way. Thank you for bringing me into your home ❤

Wow! Thank you H&H for giving us something very different from the interiors you usually show us, particularly in the typical Toronto city home (I lived in one for many years). I love how eclectic it is. Very unique personal style that’s interesting and just lovely. You can see the English influences, particularly with the wallpaper choices, and picture galleries.

Okay, okay, okay you have convinced me that open concept can be cozy! You have an amazing eye for calming colours, I could actually see myself living in a home like this...well done, bravo!!!

[gretchenamirault]

So nice to see a home that is different from the typical white/beige/grey modern look. It is not my style but shows you can be different and still have a lovely comfortable home. Bravo!

I luv this house! It gives off a comfortable cozy vibe and yet the decor is so beautiful. Find more homes like this for your channel.

Absolutely amazing. A home bursting with personality and character. Loved the Ikea hacks that just shows you can have an amazing home without breaking the bank..
