I cannot believe the negative comments in the beginning. So rude! I loved her style and choices. Her love of family treasures and heirlooms. Incorporating so many textiles from India really gives her home a uniqueness . I think this curated home is designed with her family and life in mind . Isn't that what home should be?

oh my goodness i am sooo inspired by the cork tile checkered floor in her sunroom. that sunroom is one of my favorite rooms EVER featured on this channel - and that is really something to say when this channel is full of so much beauty. i absolutely love this lady's personal style and her home. if i could describe my ideal home personal style it would be hers :) love everything!!!! also - i have never seen a green leather sofa like that before and if we ever have to replace ours, i will be 100% looking for a green leather one. so unique and gorgeous!!!

It’s refreshing to see a young homeowner who loves maintaining the originality and character of the home and who also loves collecting antiques. So many her age are simply throwing out everything “old” and are decorating only in gray and white. SO boring! And so unoriginal. I applaud her! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I love this tour, the home, the size, and especially the eclectic taste that Alana has. I actually took notes and will have my friend find me a cotton quilt like yours when she next visits her homeland. Of all the homes I've seen thus far, this one was the most relatable. Most of the time, Homeworthy's tours are in homes with budgets that far exceed the average home owners decorating budget; and that's ok. It gives us inspiration and serves as eye candy. This home tour made me feel at home! To think that I can get things at Target and make them look as stylish and upscale as her kitchen peninsula chairs is inspiring! Alana, your respect for your ancestors paintings is admirable. I hope my nieces display my paintings when I am gone. Thank you Alana and Homeworthy for allowing us into your beautiful home!

I already have some Indian elements to my decor, but not enough. This video has given me the answer to a beautiful piece of silk I brought back from India. It's going on the dining room table. 😀

Your home is a treasure. I love the stories that go along with your pieces. I had a girlfriend that rehabbed a home on 3rd. in Haddon Heights. When her next door neighbor passed away the nephews brought in several dumpsters and tossed everything including gorgeous pieces of walnut and mahogany furniture, fine china, silver etc. My girlfriend would dumpster dive at night to save the treasures. She used the pieces in her own home.

So perfectly cohesive and designed with love! I was absolutely entranced and enjoyed every single room. I thought it was ingenious to paint kitchen walls same color as cabinets. Amazing workmashup and design all around. I want to live in something very similar. So very inspiring as well! Thank you for sharing your labor of love! I really enjoyed the story aboyt checkered floors as well. I will look for your website as I loved your shoe designs and those little Moroccan brass ash trays thst you were sharing with audience was a lovely nod to all things Moroccan. You have given me inspiration as well with the gold mirror in kitchen I believe and so many ideas in my head. Can't wait to do some of my own decorating. 😊❤

I think one challenge with Homeworthy’s format is that they clearly don’t edit the videos. I am sure people misspeak all the time when presenting their homes, and the HW videographer just lets it roll. This could easily be edited and taken out, or re-shot, for the benefit of the audience and also the presenter. Similarly, the camera work is often…rough, shall we say, with the subject going in and out of focus.
