I like the quick videos, but I also like the longer ones. You have the unique ability to communicate information clearly and in an interesting and organized manner. The production values of your videos are excellent as well.

@Nick_Lewis 3 года назад

Awesome, thank you so much Sid!

@barbarafeliga 3 года назад

Couldn't agree more!

@marymakesmandalas6068 3 года назад

I love long explanations! I could listen to you for an hour 😁

@Nick_Lewis 3 года назад

Oh you are too sweet! I think you’d be the only one watching at the 1 hour mark. 😂

@dianachua8410 3 года назад

I totally agree

@theperpetualdreamer9913 3 года назад

@@Nick_Lewis Found your channel today. Have already watched many of your videos. I'd definitely watch for an hour! Heck, I even looked for you online to see if you sold your design services. You live too far away. Keep making videos!!!! Short and long.

@constancemartin933 3 года назад

@Nick Lewis I really love the way you speak..loads of information, quite quick but crystal clear delivery..so impressed..I think you "know your stuff" and know your own mind about it..ty!

@joseitox 3 года назад

Same really

@ChrisEQStudio 3 года назад

People who don't love long explanations are just people who don't go to the bottom of things! I don't say they're not good people, they're just different! But here is actually a lot of people who love to understand the "becauses" of the "whys", so stay who you are, the world need more people like you!!

@Nick_Lewis 3 года назад

Aww thanks! Sometimes I like the challenge of seeing how I can deliver the most info in the least amount of time!

@robbyyn 3 года назад

Maybe 5 to 7 min because it seems like you have to talk too fast. And I don’t agree with your partner! You do talk a lot but it’s good info😁

@Nick_Lewis 3 года назад

oh thanks! I also just talk fast no matter what! haha

@staceye2851 3 года назад

I like that your videos include topic time stamping so I can go back to a thought on one thing later without wasting a lot of time rewatching parts on topics I'm currently struggling with. I find your videos very helpful in many different ways.

@mariacastro2682 3 года назад

Have groups of three paintings on my walls,..funny,..I didn’t know about the rule of three I just always found it more balanced to the eye.

@Nick_Lewis 3 года назад

Yup! It’s that balance that makes it work so well!

@anastasia10017 3 года назад

I like the 2 min video. I also like your videos because you are the only interior designer I see that shows real life problems/solutions. Most designers show fantastic solutions in fantastic $15 million houses with high ceilings, huge windows over looking the ocean and gorgeous parquet floors. But 99% of us live in small cramped apartments and cant afford too much so as beautiful as those homes are, they are only a dream for most of us.

@Nick_Lewis 3 года назад

Thanks for that feedback - I'm so glad you noticed because that's what I'm all about! I love the beautiful inspirational stuff too, but what about making design more accessible for the average person? I try to keep it simple, easy and FUN!

@kookoo4mike 3 года назад

Lol. Your so called “long” videos seems SO short. You’re very engaging so it goes fast.

@shnuggumz 3 года назад

Since you asked, I prefer a more lengthy production, where you have time to explain the ins and outs of your design perspective whilst inserting various aspects of your personality. This time frame is a little too short to be as informative and enjoyable as your typical videos. That said, thank you for another high quality share. Best wishes and please keep the other’s comin’!

@Nick_Lewis 3 года назад

Thanks! Yes I don’t do this format anymore just because people seem to like the longer segments. Thank you for the thoughtful and respectful feedback. 😊

@rebeccadavitt5448 3 года назад

“Nick is verbose.” 😂❤️ lengthy or condensed, I love all your videos!

@jceberle2724 2 года назад

Quick videos are a welcome change, but please don’t abandon your usual, longer vids. They have so much information and I enjoy them and learn a lot, too.

@anastasia10017 3 года назад

can you do videos on design BASICS? and basic annoying problems ? how high is a chair supposed to be for maximum ergonomic comfort ? what is the perfect height for a counter top ? How deep should a sofa be to be really comfortable ? What is the most practical height for an ottoman -- 17" or 19" ? Why do my windowsills look ok when I move in and in a couple of years, they are cracking etc and what is the problem/solution ? These are basic rules that designers know but I never see them listed anywhere and I have searched for it..

@Nick_Lewis 3 года назад

I love that idea! You're right, it's those little things that make a big difference. Thanks for all the suggestions!

@LetGo0007 3 года назад

I absolutely loooved the 2 minute explanation! Answered the question right away, no unnecessary words or rambling, & easy to remember/understand. There’s no need for a 20 minute video for something that can be explained in 2 🤷🏾‍♀️ Please keep this series!

@dravarona 3 года назад

I’ve actually used the rule of 3s for a long time, although not quite sure where I learned it. I loved this quick tip video, although I really enjoy your longer ones where you dive deeper into a subject and really explain the concepts. Just do you!

@Nick_Lewis 3 года назад

Glad you enjoyed it!

@susieg9072 3 года назад

Great info! I prefer the longer more in-depth videos. But honestly you are so incredibly likeable & knowledgeable- I’d watch any content you put out 💜

@angelikacaruso577 3 года назад

I would like the longer videos, and you are great 👍

@Nick_Lewis 3 года назад

Thanks so much! I like the longer ones too, but these are fun once in a while!

@irinaplace3033 2 года назад

You present the material in a consentrated and condesed manner in your 'long' videos, they are informative with enough examples and details to frive the point home. I vote for more of those!

@veronicagordo8558 3 года назад

I like your longer videos! 😊 Everything you say is important, you don’t just ramble.

@percplayer6415 3 года назад

Do the short and long videos! You and your partner can both be right. I love that your videos get to the point without all the chit chat. They're educational and fun. My wife and I are looking to decorate and we desperately need help. I watch the longer videos when I have time. The shorter ones while eating lunch/cooking/etc. You have been extremely helpful! Lots of the other interior design videos seem to be personal video journals that are too fussy.

@yvonnesmith8245 Год назад

Please continue and take as much time as you like to confer your vast knowledge of design. I’ve loved watching and listening to you explain design in relatable terms. Thank you so much!

@rosauraalatorre6006 3 года назад

I like using the rule of three in the landscape. Plants look better when arranged in groups of three or uneven numbers. Thanks for the tip.

@lisacapuano587 3 года назад

Nick we love your verbosity! I binge watch you ... if you do these quickly please do more of them!

@jouasong8 3 года назад

Too quick for me, feels like a study cram before I take an exam. Love your long video because it’s very informative and give me to to digest it.

@Cristina-nq2oc 3 года назад

You don’t take too long to explain things! I love the details and I feel like I’m learning so much!

@bhaktibrown 2 года назад

I love your ‘long’ videos. I don’t think they’re too long. They are perfect for the subject. Great channel!!!

@viktoriasiebke8022 3 года назад

You do NOT explain too long. Thank you fot all the tips.

@yvonnebee5061 3 года назад

Doesn’t matter whether long or short, you have a lot of info in them. Good for you.

No, your long videos are GREAT!! I go back and listen to certain chunks and then rewatch the whole thing!

@shredapowell1185 3 года назад

I would like longer videos. You are entertaining while giving us good decorating ideas. I can listen to you all day. Please make them longer.

@tessajones9393 3 года назад

Whaaaat?! You're so good at explaining things quickly and clearly. Your partner is just jelly 😉☕

@aliciaabraham6132 3 года назад

You don’t talk too much! We come here to hear you talk, longer videos please! You are awesome

@Nick_Lewis 3 года назад

To be fair to him, he's been stuck in quarantine with me for 10 months so I see his point. 😂

@DouceVipere 3 года назад

I agree with other comments in here, you give long explanations full of content. It’s not that you are repeating yourself endlessly. It’s an actual class, with details and many of us are really interested in what you have to say. 2 minutes videos are great for certain subjects but in no way a substitute for others. Let the videos be at the length you see fit for the intended explanation. I love your content!

@lisabagchi3147 3 года назад

I chuckled at the brief expression of mock-exasperation on your face after telling us that your partner thinks your videos are too long. You emit wonderful energy all around. :) !!

@wesselvandorst7530 3 года назад

I quite like it when the videos are long because you're never just rambling, you're always sharing valuable ideas, suggestions, and examples in a nuanced (!) way in my opinion. In fact, I would quite like to see even more examples when you're explaining a design concept. I would love to see you go through examples and highlight what design principles have been utilized in a design. Maybe that's a concept you could use for videos? It might not be for everyone, but I'm inclined to think there is an audience for it, but what do I know... Great content Nick! Congrats on 100k subscribers!

@c3a0r0i7n8a9 3 года назад

I enjoy listening to you for 2 minutes, 10 minutes or 30 minutes! Love your explanations, thank you!

@TheDeatherus 3 года назад

I havent heard about this before - and, trust me, I have been watching lots of stuff throughout the years lol. Thanks for sharing!

@jerrywilkjr.6698 3 года назад

I like both the longer and shorter videos. I especially like to watch younger longer videos when I am doing chores that require me to be in one spot.☺️

@Nick_Lewis 3 года назад

Noted! Yeah it seems people like the longer ones - how flattering!

@jocelynbrown20 3 года назад

I personally love listening to everything you share and hang on every word. I like your “long” explanations.

@ksholar91 3 года назад

I love these shorts ones. I could binge a whole playlist of these

@dorioflame8536 3 года назад

I like the longer format for sure. Your delivery speed is awesome and keeps me engaged. So refreshing. Say what you have to say, regardless of time. The content is more important. And deep is good!

@lesleythompson6801 2 года назад

I don't think you talk for too long! I'm amazed how much information you can give in a 15-minute videos, which I think is short. :)

@insaafmohedeen4436 3 года назад

Your passions shines through when you take your time to explain, the 2 minute things seems rushed and like you are racing

@lourdescintron4882 3 года назад

Thanks for explaining this rule, now I get it! The video was great mind you, a little longer wouldn't hurt! 😁

@juliegalvin9306 3 года назад

You don't take too long! I enjoy every minute!

@TheLillyrivas 3 года назад

Me and my family love your way of educating and entertaining us! The excess use of barn doors video for example, we 💘 it!! Keep doing YOU please!! Greatly appreciated it!!

@ferbylima8869 3 года назад

I prefer the longer videos bc that way you are able to really get into it and explain everything better with a lot more details

@merrywalsh2809 3 года назад

I like the longer ones. I know the longer ones are important strategy on YT too, so win-win. 🙌🏽

@masumap1118 3 года назад

I recently discovered you and I can get enough of your videos! When I was watching your videos I thought wow such great content, no waffling and he goes straight the point without having long videos! I would’ve never thought your videos are long! Keep doing you!

@juliereynolds3488 3 года назад

Thanks for explaining this! When deciding what art pieces to put where, at times I've thought a bit rebelliously, "But WHY do I have to arrange things in threes?" Now I understand the reasoning behind it.

@SeaTurtle515 3 года назад

When I took a design class our instructor taught us about the Golden Mean or the 3/5 ratio in design. The Greeks used it in their architecture. Are you familiar with it? It’s the same principle as the groups of 3. Keep up the good work. 🌿

@chipa2189 3 года назад

It's the same in marketing, "Rittersport - quadratisch, praktisch, gut" ;) Love the short video, however i do not mind longer videos as long as it gives good content. Would be great to see a video from you on how to approach small studio appartments.

@jayneburns5044 3 года назад

Who knew ? Things do look so much better with 3 !! Recently started watching your videos, love them. Thank you so much !!

@alexazimmerman7193 3 года назад

Little quick videos AND long ones! You're great at both so just do what makes sense. Thank you for all of your knowledge x

@sandyb4453 3 года назад

You are so easy to listen to and so respectful... Love your work Nik. 👍⭐💚

@marleybedford8628 3 года назад

I really enjoy your personality, verbosity and explanations. That is why you are a favourite of mine.

@dennisklimavich3342 3 года назад

I have been the 3s for about a year...it works. One added point, change the groups once in a while so you get a new look; just as you move the art work every 6 months or so

@sara_387 3 года назад

Rule of thirds is a bit different to rule of three...thirds is usually used in photography and art for a pleasing placement of a focal point. I think it’s quite useful in design/styling too.

@leaspr7702 3 года назад

Ok, I liked this video but honestly, I like the longer videos better. Your information is always of high quality, and besides that, you don't use a lot of unnecessary words anyway just to hear yourself talk. And I appreciate that immensely. Out of all the people on youtube, You are not the one that needs to do shorter videos. ;-)

@yo.momma_og 3 года назад

Nick this was fun...but, I love your content & I love hearing you talk design!! Podcast?? If you do a podcast, please make sure to film it & post it up on RU-vid! Xo

@northerngirl4924 3 года назад

Yes, I find the rule of three just looks better every time. Great video. I don’t find you take too long to explain things. I think you are very concise, but then I don’t live with you.😂

@amberm6766 3 года назад

The body language about your partners opinion of the longevity of explanation.. #relatable 😂 okay now going to start over to pay attention 🥰

@patriciaquintela899 3 года назад

I do not mind long explanations at all. I also love when you dive deeper. Maybe a mix of both types of videos would be very interesting 🤔

@sandraparis7938 3 года назад

Thanks Nick! Love these quick tips!

@kristinferguson1189 3 года назад

As a pastry chef, I learned that groups of three are more pleasing than twos or fours. Three bruleed halves of black mission figs arranged on top of the creme fraiche tart are better than four or two.

I loved the little 3 minute video. There's definitely room for both types as each have different concepts and production types behind them. As I wrote this out though I realized this video was posted quite a few months ago lol. Oh well.

Cool! I didn't know it applied to pendant lamps too. 😊

@Nick_Lewis 3 года назад

Yup! I mean I love a single pendant too, but if you have the space, go for 3!

@sneakerfreak2002 3 года назад

I agree. I like to group things in 3s and sometimes 5s. I just did it instinctively. This is the first time I’ve heard it explained

@zakosist 3 года назад

I have never before thought about the number of things put together when it comes to design. I think I actually prefer much more than 3, at least when it comes to wall art

@sandradavis7132 3 года назад

I love your longer, more detailed videos and hope you keep doing those as I find them hugely informative and helpful, but I think this format is also great for sharing this kind of idea that can be explained and illustrated very quickly. Do both!
