Jeremiah Brent Quotes

No one is a plain white room. I hate going into a home that is done to the nines but has nothing do with the homeowner - no knickknacks, no art that has anything to say about the person who lives there.

I think a house should reflect the interests and personality of the occupant, but it takes time to gather together the objects one likes around oneself.

A home should be an intimate autobiography of the things that you like. One of the things I'm so keen on expressing is that, if you don't do it for yourself, if you're always seeking affirmation from outside, you'll never have a home. It'll just be a house.

Every decorative piece in this house is my feeling, my choice.

A house is very much like a portrait. I cannot disconnect houses from people. The thought of arrangement, the curves and straight lines. It gives an indication of the character at the heart of it.

Everywhere your eye travels in your home, it should land on something that resonates with you.

Your home should be an extension of you and who you are as a person. If you can come home, and actually feel at home... that's fantastic design.

Your space, when done correctly, is the purest extension of yourself!

People automatically associate the caliber of the space based on the appliances.

The sexiest thing about style is if you kind of just take your personality and put it in what you wear. That's what I think is cool.

Be comfortable; be you. What's most important is to understand what suits your body type and personality. Stick to that, and you can't go wrong!

The worst thing any decorator can do is give a client the feeling that he's walking around somebody else's house; the rooms must belong to the owner, not to the decorator; and no rooms can have atmosphere unless they are used and lived in.

Fashion and interior design are one and the same.

People are easily intimidated when they decorate their home. They think it has to be one way. But there's no one way. It's your way, your style. At the end of the day, you have to live there. It's your cocoon, your nest. You have to be happy in it.

You have to put your own personality into your home. Do what you feel is you!

Everything I've designed is intended not to match perfectly but to sit together in harmony, to add flair and personality to any room.

I create a look, and I create a style.

When I make chairs, they have legs; they can go anywhere in the world. Interiors are a different responsibility. A house is a representation of where you are, and it has to be right for the place.

I think it's really important to bring your own personality to the space you're in.

It's so important for people to have a space that they love, and that you wake up happy every morning in your house. A big part of that is what you have for your furniture, your art, your decor.

Whenever anyone puts decor or artwork on the walls, it's always personal. You want people to come into your home and see something that reflects your personality.

I don't know, it's dorky. Just like quotes and stuff. Something I want to see everyday or something I want to be there. I don't know. I can put a hole in the wall if I want. It's mine. It's very simple. It's a very tiny house, but I can do whatever I want to. I can rip up the terrible vinyl floor and recycle it. Just create a good space. A quiet place to be.

Style, in the broadest sense of all, is consciousness. More specifically it is a consistent idiom arising spontaneously from the personality but deliberately maintained.

Unless one decorates one's house for oneself alone, best leave it bare, for other people are walleyed.

There is almost nothing in your house that does not tell something about you.
