Sit down darling. . . and watch my new YouTube show! Ian Patrick and I launched “Sit Down Darling. . . Let’s Talk Design.” last month and we received lots of wonderful feedback. We had a blast filming episodes with our director G. Bruce Smith and videographer/editor Michael Mitchell.
Episode 1, titled “Classical Architecture: Done to Death in the Wrong Way,” captures the essence, we hope, of what we wanted to produce: A show that promises design illumination through colorful anecdotes, historical context, and salty humor. (Episode 2 is “Architects: Bred to Be Stars.”)
From the distasteful side effects of the lack of plumbing in Versailles to exploding corsets, we believe “Sit Down Darling” will educate but will also take a sassy, no-holds-barred look at the most delectable – and often scandalous – chapters in design history.
We’ll be rolling out episodes – which are only three to four minutes long – roughly every two weeks. We will even be sharing our hilarious “Outtakes” from the show.
If you haven’t already, please subscribe to our YouTube channel. You can also view episodes on my website. And we welcome your feedback.
Warmest regards,
Eleanor
