Rita Konig | The Advanced Guide to Interior Design

It's amazing how I find EVERY single piece used in this room incredibly incredibly ugly and yet I find the room as a whole adorable. It's like some sort of magic. Rita truly is very talented.

Iconic Rita Koning designs are cozy , livable , timeless ! Soothing ! Lovely … always a treat

Rita has a style that nurtures the soul. People feel comforted in her rooms because of her intuitive sense of colour, scale, pattern and placement. I'm inspired. Thank you Rita.

So thoughtful, so Right. I love the way she always has comfort and practicality in mind but has great sensitivity to colour, texture and beauty. She’s a genius.

I LOVE how Rita says the word - room.

It’s a beautiful cozy room and I always love Rita’s vision. I would love to see how she would decorate a very small cottage type house.

Beautiful and incredibly inspiring....as always Rita!

Thank you for a number of really great tips on decorating a home. When i think about how I want to decorate my first home, I do think in layers. I think about rugs, paintings, lamps, and writing tables. Specifically a place to sit down quickly and dash off a few emails or to pay a few bills. This room was so warm. I do think about wallpapers and paint and colors. I am still looking for the right house and these tips help me to understand how to work with the living room so it's comfortable and generates a feeling of warmth.

Just love everything Rita does - gorgeous room!

maaan, every word she says about the pictures and lamps...gold!

I love that British designers will not waste any space.

Utterly sublime and an uniquely English sensibility. It is a real art to create a sitting room look so welcoming and effortless. And Rita does it so well. Adore the fabric - was it Lumac or Luma? Couldn’t quite work that out. Would absolutely love to know?

Don't need tables at either end when you have a good coffee table... I've floated a sofa similarly with a low bookcase behind it, about 1 foot short the width of the sofa on either side (making getting around it easy enough to do), and a lamp (electric outlet in the floor). The color of the wall paper goes with everything. That's the colour of the paint I used (the background of the print) and I painted the room that colour despite it not matching anything in the room; what it did was make all the other colours pop. Pretty room.

Loved the video! Thank you for including specific scenarios. So many interior designers describe their process as more instinctive, that pieces just go together. My favorite tip is about bigger furniture pieces in a small room, and how they can enhance a space without making it seem smaller.

I love your video. I learnt from you in your previous videos about taking furniture away from the walls, putting something behind a couch. I took that advice and it works in my home. Hope to see more videos from you. Felicity Jacobs, Cape Town, South Africa

A true master!

Beautiful old world and so cozy and inviting. Tea time conversation for sure!

Beautifully cozy.

brilliant and useful.

Why are the videos on youtube in a dazzling 4K, whereas the resolution on your actual create academy site lingers at 720p?
