Transcript excerpt
Your home still isn't weird enough, you don't need another plain coffee table. You need the giant hippo table. Because if your furniture can double as a slightly concerning animal sculpture, even better. Hi. I'm Lily. I'm an interior designer, and I think modern homes are desperately lacking whimsy. You don't need a normal chandelier. You need the glowing globe hanging from the ceiling like an old explorer study. You don't need another boring hedge. You need a giant cone shaped topiary that feels like a secret entrance in a fantasy movie. You don't need another generic accent wall. You need a wall filled with tiny toy cars displayed inside an actual car door. You don't need another generic game room. You need an upside down car turned into a ping pong table because somebody looked at a Fiat and thought, ping rank. You don't need a tile fireplace. The one with a giant dragon crawling out of it, like your house has its own ecosystem. Don't need every room to feel polished and expected, and honestly, I think our homes should be a little unhinged.
