How to Bring NATURE into the Home | A Japanese Stylist’s Remarkable House in the London Suburbs

Подробнее о видео

For the fourth film in our Homing In series, co-founder Matt Gibberd meets a couple who have transformed a suburban semi in south-west London into a nurturing home embedded in the natural world.

As with each of the films in the series, we aim to show how adherence to five key design principles – space, light, materials, nature and decoration – allows you, in Matt’s words, “to live a better and more fulfilled life.” Here, we examine Yasuyo and Phil Harvey’s relationship to nature and see how they gently surround themselves with natural materials, furniture and objects, championing the delicate detritus of nature and giving it aesthetic value.
