The neighbors in the house next to that big black house must be pulling their hair out. Not only have they been subjected to protracted construction, but the thing is looming over them like Darth Vader.
I really hope stone wall girl is on a slab. 1600 extra pounds of weight is no joke to put on a structure that might not be engineered to hold all that extra weight pulling on a single wall.

That stone wall is gonna make that wall fall into the ground!
When we moved into our current home 32 years ago, we had 10 people living here (us, our six kids and two students). Instead of making a huge laundry room, we plumbed an area in the basement for a second laundry area. The older kids who lived in the bedrooms (all had egress windows) down there did their own laundry. When they all moved out, we gave away the washer and dryer. We "decommissioned" the extra plumbing. We may, one day, turn that area into an apartment, in which case, the plumbing will come in handy.

That yellow-grey epoxy kitchen!!!! It looks like someone vomited eggs Everywhere! I like the fluted panel barn door! Great idea to add artwork! Unfortunately, that stone wall is giving Jesus's tomb vibes. I would love to re-do my bathroom and get rid of the tub, BUT, I think of the re-sale value: Parents wanting to bathe kids, coloring my hair, washing my hair when I don't want to shower, soaking clothes, whatever, I'm sure there are more uses for a tub..... Do YOU think removing a tub would affect re-sale?
@merrywalsh2809

If it is the only tub in the house, yes, you have just drastically reduced the buyer pool.
Good heavens, that first kitchen. She totally ruined what could have been a great space. But, Big Bird did not get murdered there because Big Bird wouldn't be caught dead there; just sayin 😜Question on the no tub thing. The main bathroom in our next house has a ridiculous tub, 14 high by about 20 wide. None of us can fit in there comfortably, so converting it to a shower would make sense. However, i've read that not having a bathtub hurts the resale value. We're not planning on selling the house (it's currently my mother's house and she wants to keep it in the family forever), but you never know. It would make a great tub for babies and little tots, but not for anyone much older than that -- and the vanity is also 30 inches high, which is another project. OY! Anyway, great video as always, DD 🙂
Yassssssss ❤❤❤ Just what I needed! The snark! The joy! The hilarity! Yes yes yes! 😂
Okay, I gotta say it: Design Daddy's outfit is so cool. If he designs homes as well as he dresses, he must get a lot of business.

I missed you too DD. I thought you were going to dis the slatted barndoor on the playroom. I like it a lot, but as you pointed out, it is a focal point on that wall and probably within the room. It is there but not quite, adding big artwork on the door will define it as a definite focal point. DD, is so astute. (still curious how the hardware doesn't show. Hope they didn't photoshop it out of the pic) YES, some of these "brilliant ideas", lead so many people into complete disasters. Just goes to show you how many people don't question what they see and hear. They do not even consider or think it through to wonder if it even makes sense. Highly entertaining post DD.
Please do more of these. This is sooo good.
When I snorted out my iced tea because of the Big Bird murder comment, I immediately subscribed. Thank you for being the funniest arbiter of good taste (the occasional snark is just the cherry on top).

It really is crazy how that floating vanity really does create more room, but only in our minds. I am going to do that in my bathroom, it isn't that small, but it could always look bigger. Have you seen the floor to ceiling shelves in bathrooms where two perpendicular walls meet? They are no more than 18" wide but with a canceled led strip, that does the same thing as the floating vanity, It negates that inside corner, and makes it look like there is much more space. Backlight mirrors do about the same thing, adding more dimension to that flat plain.
Omg that last one! I saw that on social media too. That was kinda dumb. I mean it looks fantastic, but not even hotels have laundry rooms that big. Even if she passes on her home to her children, and children’s children…How many damn people live in your house at once? And if your family is SO large that it warrants an over-sized laundry room, then where y’all eating? Where do you all eat when all your family comes over? I just have so many questions, OK.
That nasty staircase with no handrails is going to have big nasty oily handprint streaks up and down the walls. Lots of scrubbing.
Love that idea to have basically a secret (barn) door.
I won’t buy anything without a bathtub. I spend 4 hours a night in mine 😂

I have bad balance and those stairs is my worst nightmare.
Now for laundry off of entryway it depends upon where you live and lifestyle. My childhood home on a farm in the deep country there's no choice but a mud and laundry off the entry only if you can keep it separate from your entertainment space and living space. There its 9 months of mud, rain and 3ft of snow. Im designing my mother a chalet style boot room with laundry to make gear and boots contained in its own room thats made for mud and snow and outdoor gear. Even as a guest i have been with my whole family on vacations to relatives in the high country and when u get more than just ur typical household but are hosting for days or a week in snow or rain and all outdoor activities for 10 ppl or more, a huge room for everything off the entry with laundry, storage, benches, and a woodstove is ideal. Certain ppl specifically host large groups of family and friends for up to a week, especially in the back country. Usually when u have guests and live far from others the layout or what you find to be proper is different and whats actually proper like on a horse ranch is an amazing front laundry, mud, tack, boot, chalet wood fired heated front room. When ppl come ots camping on the land, hikes, horseback riding, sledding and water sports and in the short summers swimming. Hosting 30 or more for snow filled holidays. Theres hunting and fishing season and usually 3 weeks of no electricity every year. Theres farm animals and chores. So to be a good host and a good steward os to make a landing zone for alllllllllll those activities from ur household up to 30 ppl for a day or even 10 extra ppl for 2 weeks.
okay, but are we going to get to see the final look for the project you are working on??!

Design Daddy - you are so pragmatic and organized with your designs and advice would be so appreciated if some red flags are coming up’s i know diy can go horribly wrong as seen in the video but we have no option but to go diy on a vanity after water damage and sh-t insurances. Our focus with one bath and 4 kids is on maximizing storage in 60”x24” deep (5’x2’ . We will go to one sink (blasphemy I know) for extra counter space because we NEVER use both and taking the additional space for covered storage up to ceiling. Would love to build a pull out pantry but for toiletries/ towels on the side butting on the bathtub so we can grab what we need from the bath and can keep all of our crap off the side of the tub. Also thinking of adding an under cabinet hidden clothes hamper/ possibly the garbage bin too. We are on the hunt for wood cabinets to repurpose and refinish because everything we are finding new in budget and even out of budget is particle board crap. Counter top is the hard part. What materials can you do on a budget that don’t look like garbage? Got woodworking skills that are not beginner but also not every day hobbiest or professional level.

I really thought your argument on the black siding would be that a colder climate like Canada would be okay... because in warmer climates you wouldn't choose black for that reason. I think this is one of these cases where people under the Dunning-Krueger-effect think they are innovative or this is basically a statement: "I have so much money I can buy someone who pressure washes my house every day" (yes you read that correctly)
I love this!

That hideous black monolith house ...I feel so bad for the neighbour who has lost all privacy in their backyard and have that ugly house looming over theirs.
lmaaao the fact I literally SEE that 'Neutrogena splash' when you said that ☠️☠️🤣
About that laundry room... dont we see that they closed that large entrance to that room up completely? There is a shot of the wall opposing the washer-dryer-combo. So I guess they also closed the other open entrance with a door. So it is basically a laundry room of a size that would fit a (mega)-mansion
Well, epoxy is also a pretty nasty health issue while you are handling the components and especially when you are sanding it. Disposal of the leftover components should nkt be taken lightly and are probably regulated depending on where you live. Disposal of hardened resin is probably not regulated but still it is one of those things that will sit in the landfill forever and ever... so thank you for that. The next generations really needed that.

How does one go through the process of deciding to renovate their bathroom, create a moodboard (I assume), learn all the tricks of the trade etc, and yet be so ignorant of basic design terminology as to call this style mid-century modern??

I saw someone make a fantasy style wall, and it looks 100% better than this only because she made it looks like a stone wall that's outside, aka covered in some moss and weathered. Like stone looks better when weathered but everyone that does this forgets that and it looks unfinished. And her stones were fake, they weren't real. EDIT: I'm goth so I would absolutely make a black outside for my house, but I'd probably just do some paint and change the fence lol.
Oh God! I need to send you a video of our bathroom remodel! We did a big no-no in our shower 😂 - natural marble stone wall surround! Everybody who came in during demo was like, "What?! Why?? Noooo, this is a bad idea!" 😂😂😂 BUT! As soon as we explained what our vision was and how we planned on triple sealing it, everyone was blown away at the final result. We're waiting on the glass to be installed, so we haven't gotten to use it yet, so we don't know how well the sealant will hold up, but the little we have used the water in the shower has shown promise, as it beads up really well. I know it's going to be a lot of upkeep and cleaning, but for the esthetic, I definitely think it was worth it. I feel like I'm transported to a mediterranean villa!
