Her vibe is so cheerful, feminine, inviting, but still quirky and individual. Very cool lady.
Absolutely amazing! It's a mid-century museum.
what a happy time full of hope and optimism.
Absolutely love this place. Such a time capsule, but I wouldn't want to dust it.
From Emily twirling in her beautiful dress to all the rooms decorated in Mid-Century style made for an absolutely delightful tour. Emily is charming and mid-century sweet with a gorgeous smile throughout the tour. Thank you so much for inviting us to your Mid-Century home. Emily keep twirling and smiling!
How amazing is this collection! But it's not all about the collection, is it? It's about the truly incredible presentation of it all. Everything looks so perfectly arranged and visually balanced [both in colour & layout]. The whole place is a work of art and those wonderful words "behold the glory" are well deserved and most relevant. You may be interested to know that I recognise some of those items from my childhood in the UK. Well done to you two for creating and sharing such an incredible themed home and a big thank you to Charles for creating and sharing this lovely video.
Mid Century mind....BLOWN! Thanks Charles!
The lighting is spectacular in every room. Amazing furniture too. I feel they are being swamped with all the brica brac. It must take her ages switching everything off at night. A fun house and love the owner.
My brain just exploded watching this … so cool this was lovingly collected over time via thrift and flea markets! 💖✨
I have a great collection of retro 60's stuff including art, Murano glass, MCM and countless other stuff plus I am a well travelled decent guy with three adorable grandchildren yet can't seem to find any one to share my passion. Good luck to Emily for finding someone who is just as crazy as she is.

Emily's husband Fernando is also passionately into MCM. Fernando made an appearance at the end of the video.
Oh myyyy! Sooo much to love! It is indeed a residential mid century museum with the best decor and furnishings ever! Thanks to the owners for sharing, Emily for twirling, and our effervescent host Charles Phoenix for the narration and fascination! How much did we just Love THIS? I KNOW!
What a fabulous tour!!! I love that ebullient Emily and so-handsome Fernando seem as though they stepped right out of the 1950s. What an absolutely STUNNING collection! Of course, Charles Phoenix (the One and Only!) never fails to AMAZE and AMUSE with his knowledge, humor and enthusiasm as he takes us along with him!
MY MOUTH WILL BE DROPPED FOR ANOTHER 10 YEARS !!! AMAZING
I keep going back to this one. It is my favorite one to see so much of mid-century modern. Thank you so much for sharing.
Outstanding!! And she is such a doll...the hostess with the mostess.
Her husband is so cute and so humble and helping her and her collection
Wow what a house , what a dame ! 😎 I hope they have a suitably retro car too ?! Great to see you back Charles 👍🏻 I KNOW !

There's nothing like a dame (You know darn well!) 😊
So much fun. Really is a time capsule. BEHOLD THE GLORY , Charles!!!
What an amazing collection of mid century stuff. Not only did I hit the like button, I saved this video to my favorites!
I don't know if it's because I'm getting older but I'm developing a new appreciation for mid-century & this house & furnishings are amazing! The couch & chairs reminds me of the brown set we had growing up, the folks got it when they first got married in 67, sure they looked nice but they were the scratchiest things... You didn't sit on it with just shorts, you always had something between you & that upholstery!
Seeing this house made me so happy as well and has made my day, thank you so much for sharing this treasure.
Love the Christmas tree! I've never seen one with the mixed color...beautiful! Thanks for posting this video!
tha must have taken so much work to put together, everything is fantastic I love the table with the hidden bar in it
Jaw dropping.
Wow!
Wow!!!! Dear Charles, I was not familiar with this mid century theme. Thank you for your channel!! The cars, the beautiful homes, and the amazing people are a delight to watch! Your personality and style is wonderful. I wish you continued success!!
Wow! What a place, I love it! I wish I could find just one atomic item. Thank you Charles for this awesome video. I know!
I'm not a person of words, but this house is out of this world! I'm digging it, as Isaac Hayes would say! Atomic Ranch Magazine needs to feature this home.
Eye candy! THANK YOU!
ABSOLUTELY MAGNIFICENT
This is absolutely incredible- what a great couple, Emily is just fabulous. I’m blown away by the collection. Everything is just so special.
Beautiful home filled with treasures. I would love to someday have just 1 room like this. Thank you for the tour.
OMGGGG this is the BEST midcentury home I have seen here on KZread. They have the most amazing collection of midcentury pieces I have ever seen. The house is so well decorated. So many pieces that I have never seen before too. I love here dress, she is an adorable flash from the past 🙂The couches and lamps were my favorite I think but its hard to pick with so many amazing things. I would LOVEEEE to live in that house and wake up to all of that LOL , Thanks for this tour 🤩🥰👍
Lamps looked modern from the 1940s on up. I'm glad she brought the wonderful 50s and 60s back. Thank you.
This is a mind blowing collection of fabulous mid century everything!!
Wow! Her collection of lamps is amazing!
Mid century furniture, dress, cars, and culture was the best. I like to dress up while driving my ‘61 Cad Convertible.😎
You two made my day! Took me back to my childhood growing up in San Diego. I remember a few of these items in our house and Aunts and Grama's house. So much fun - the twirling in a pretty dress - such fun times. Thank you for sharing! Love it ALL!
Superb filming job! Lots of neat-o stuff in there to say the least.
Thanks Charles. Amazing home. This woman is lovely, and I appreciated her willingness to share--and twirl. I've seen things here that I didn't know existed. I would have liked to hear more from the husband as he seems like a good man, and I'd like to learn what he can share.
Oh my gosh I love this house!
I'm speechless (and that is rare rare rare). I would love to see a tour of your house and car collection if you have one. Happy holidays from Michigan
What FUN it must have been (and still is) to fit out that house with all the amazing authentic decor! Wonderful tour, Charles!! Great job! I get such a restful feeling from the vibe of the house. This tour of a happy, active Mid Century home does my heart good, especially after watching a guy who films abandoned houses slated for demolition in Canada. I am thankful Ethan is documenting the disappearing history for cultural historians of the future. - just wish there was salvage effort there. I have seen gorgeous completely original bathrooms & kitchens with their pink, turquoise, green, yellow, mint, lilac & deep purple toilets, tubs, sinks, & accoutrements with original wallpaper doomed for destruction and my mind recoils in knowing no one is going to salvage it. In many the MCM stair railings, solid wood cabinets & paneling are fantastic and the perfect MC lighting fixtures remain condemned to death, as well . Then I come to this kind of video & feel vindicated, that plenty of us exist who love & value this history. I'll bet Emily & Fernando's vintage clothing wardrobe is equally spectacular!!

I don't think I've ever seen a purple toilet! That would be something else!! I'm curious about the bathrooms in this featured house.
Damn, she's got the mid-century collection!
OH SWEET CHEEZITS! This is a fabulously orgas-mid century explosion! Thank you for the tour Charles and Emily.
I recognize the period-specific style in some of the kitchenware and tableware from my late grandparents' house in Finland. Considering the post-war conditions they were not wealthy and they didn't have full sets of anything, but single items of 50s design brought a nice, small touch of luxury into their otherwise modest home.

And that’s what a lot of folks refuse to comprehend in regards to this specific era. Other than the short lifespan of the Deco era, Life was For the most part pretty drab and depressing until postwar. Fortunately, we finally reached a Time when our surroundings were actually designed to uplift our spirits, make us smile, and look forward to what the future had in store which would in turn, Give us (to despite how some people may feel) incentive to accomplish other great Achievements Shortly after. There are many reasons why people should still consider this to be one of the most important eras In history.🚀✨🚀✨🚀
This is the best that I've ever seen. So much ...so beautiful. This house should be in a magazine. Or maybe they should make a book of their home. I would buy it!
Love greets from German ♥ It´s so beautiful. I love this style. Thank you so much Charles
Probably one of the best curated collections of mid-century in the entire country, in my opinion. Maybe you can find a restored pink kitchen stove to go with your fridge one day. cheers to you both for your talent
I love her spins, cute.❤
I would love to know where she found all of these amazing pieces .... I just love it!!!
That’s funny, Siesta Ware is ubiquitous. Love it.
Amazing place! And that dress is fabulous😊
this is about my 3rd or 4th time passing by here. im just so in love for all thing mcm & this home is a treasure trove of them!
This house is awesome.
How marvellous, what a pad! Wow I thought I was the best thing made in the 50's but Charles you are showing me another side of life with the cars and now this wonderful woman and her collections!
Absolutely kitsch!
I was hoping to see a 1957 Plymouth in the garage!
Amazing! What a gorgeous dress 💕🌸💖 loved Emily. Thanks for showing
Wow this place is like a museum but I bet it's a pain to dust LOL the things we do for our passion 💯
It's all just perfect. Love to you both!
Simply Fabulous!
Best lamp collection I've seen!
I have no words.
The drapes in dressing room are the best item in whole house
Very nice , amazing! Brings back being 4 years old in the late fifties!
SO FUN!
Absolutely DELIGHTFUL video!!! Thank you, Charles, for sharing it with the world!

Amazing! I really enjoyed this video!
unbelievably cool!
Wunderful time in your home - thank you - so real - so wunderful.
Emily has my brain twirling and I’m now drunk on vintage and grinning from ear to ear. It’s a lighting showcase, I want all of them! I’ve OD’d and dizzy from all the curated fabulousness! I’ve got to go sleep this off now. Thanks for the trip.
Very Cool!
Amazing. I hope this home and its contents will always be protected
That was an amazing episode!!!
Wakefield is Kohinoor, not sculptura. Crazy collection of mid century kitsch. Weather spheres are Peter Pepper Products. I had one of those trees and the branches were several different colors. Emily is so fun, thanks for the tour!!
Omg I love her home. Wish I had that style of home to do this
I love people like her
It's a little too much together, but every piece is wonderful. Kitchy for sure.
Glorious!
I like it Wow!
Wow! So fun!
Blown away! What an incredible collection!
Great !.......all we need is for Perry and Paul Drake to show up !
Great to see so much colour in this age of modern white/grey/taupe boredom. The colours welcome and envelop and dare you to love them. The fifties were all about colour - cars included - and then things declined. The stainless dishwasher and sink looked a little out of place!
She is really committed to the mcm era
Absolutely AMAZING….. I love everything, especially all the Moss lamps ❤️❤️❤️
Thos is one beautiful house. She would have loved the stove top and wall oven my parents had years ago. They were like a pale pink. Absolutely beautiful appliances. Back in 1974 while visiting Disneyland, my family and I stayed at The Inn of Tomorrow on Katella Ave which was a Stoval motel that used a lot of Googie futuristic style. Their was the Inn of Tomorrow, The Galaxy Inn, The Space Age Lodge and Cosmic Inn. It was a Mid Century Masterpiece. The lobby for me at my young age was breathtaking. The grounds also included topiary trees shaped like animals. If you walk into the hotel now, you can still see some of the old styling cues within the lobby. You just have to know what to look for, because most people wouldn't realize it without the back story.
Wow, you home is out of this world ❤️🍄❤️
Beautiful isn’t it, folks?!!!!
Beautiful.
Love it!❤❤❤
Charles you’re so fantastic! I’m going to bring a extra Red sharpie just for you!! See you at Viva!
EXCELLENT!
Beautifully curated! ❤
Amazing!!!! 😍😍😍
