In the last room, the art above the doors would be perfect over the console, and the other larger art needs to be moved down a bit to eye level. I so agree with adding a statement chandelier! I wouldn't have thought of it, and it MADE the space!

That big beautiful room needed a professional designer's eye and makeover, including a replacement of those two out-of-place shelving units. What an amazing space!!

You were nice and helpful to your viewers. Roasting was not real harsh. Enjoyed it very much. Love this idea.

Please do a follow up of them taking your advice

Wait a second, let me make myself a grand latte 🤗🤣🤣🤣

I really like that gold rattan chair. The built in is perfect for art books and field guides maybe some large jars with dried flowers and a great candle on an iron pedastal

You offered a good balance of critiques and suggestions. I love blank walls. All those spaces needed lots of help with their walls.

@ArvinOlano

AGREED !

You did a good job of “roasting.” I did laugh when you suggested moving the big antique piece to another room in the NYC apartment because there probably isn’t another room. I live in nyc and you can’t imagine how small the apartments are unless you are a multi-billionaire. My guess is she has no coffee table in the living room because it doubles as a bedroom with a pull out sofa or Murphy bed . It really is a pain moving furniture every night for your Murphy bed or pull out sofa. It is easier to have less furniture.

That last one with the large doors and view would also look great with some kind of plant or tree.

The first space is mine and Omg I am dying 😂😂!!!!!! Yes, def going to get a new couch. My dog (Bowser) chewed up not only the cushion covers but the foam inside so it absolutely can’t be saved. Lolololololololol.

This video was so much fun...first of all I want to THANK those who sent their pictures and hope they take everything Arvin & the comments said as constructive criticism....I know how difficult it is for myself and many individuals to know what our specific style is and he did an amazing job taking very different styles and making an already good room look even better....Thanks again guys for being awesome sports and allowing us to learn from each and everyone of y'all.

This was so helpful!! How you usually show what we should do is educational, but I feel like your breakdown of what not to do was even more useful! ❤️

"Let's address the rug..." Well hello. You ARE a rug, aren't you?

I agree with just about everything...but I love Jacqueline's golden chairs in that space!

This was the perfect amount of meanness. Your laugh and fun personality take the edge of the mean, and your advice is very good. I really enjoyed this video. If this becomes a series, I'll watch every episode! 😁

Love Laura’s big white box room!! I see massive plants in there like a monsters or a giant fiddly fig in the corner there next to the massive outdoor glass door. Lots of good lighting for a plant like that and it could grow big! Looooove this space and loving the curved couch!!!

I was thinking it was missing big beautiful plants too, that would probably reduce the "bachelor pad" vibes too lol.

I feel like I can’t stop watching this channel mainly because of that INSANE scream sound effect ! The comedic timing / repetition is too good

You roast like a sweet marshmallow! Love you, Arvin. All your points were very valid and helpful...keep doing this, please!

I really like that you took actual rooms that other people created and then you told them how to improve them. The links and the inserting of the pictures of the chandelier, etc. were genius. Let’s do this again!

I am obsessed with your videos because you give no BS, you're very talented and honest, and you make me smile. Your candor is softened with your laugh, so as not to offend. I love these roast videos; I hit the pause button and quiz myself as to how I would change the room. Please keep them coming!

Why am I laughing and also feeling sorry at the same time for these viewers decor 😂🤣😢😭

This has to be one of my favorite videos you've made ❤ you've got to make this into a regular series on your channel. You give such good advice 👏

Probably my favorite content from you!! Love the great ideas for each space. I will not be sending in my space.... needs way too much help, lol!

Oh Arvin! I really love your ideas and like I said you inspire me so much to work on my own space. Thank you!! 😘😘😘

This is one of the best! so funny (am low-key guilty as charged for most of these roasts). Please make this a series, I would love to see more of this, don't we?

This was SO fun to watch! I have often wondered what Arvin would say about my home decor choices, this is a brilliant idea please do more!

Love it. Please make this a series!!!

Sooo funn I loved this do it again queen!!! You were a respectful roaster ❤️

I think the "Roasting" temperature was just right. A little bit of kindness goes a long way. Loved this video.

LOVE that shell vase on top of the plinth and the branches. Very pretty! I love seeing people's homes that are not professionally designed. Like a blank canvas you can really go crazy with!

I love this video! You’re having fun with peoples houses while also giving great tips 🤩

Didn't know you/I/we needed this but we undeniably did!!!!! Loved this!! Make more!!! Thanks for the laugh and the help.

I loved your tips on symmetry. Its like composition in art. And balance is needed in decor. Made a light go on in my brain and I appreciate it

I think the tone/balance of roast and suggestions is perfect 👌 The editing really helped me understand how to fix the problems you identify. Looking forward to the next one!

This definitely needs to be a series! FYI-editing was on point! Kudos to your “assistant”

I love how you are honest but somehow kept it light and fun, you gave great feedback. I hope you do more of these.

The last space "the big white box", If she could either diy or hire someone to trim her glass doors it would help the space quite a bit. She could have large flat modern trim installed, completely making the space feel more luxury. Fun video, more in the future :)
