I like going into places that you never know what you're going to find because you can go in with no ideas and leave with thousands.
On 'Queer Eye,' I really get to see the way someone lives. They know the Fab Five are coming, but they don't know when or how, so our producers make sure they don't clean up so that we can experience exactly how they normally live.
A plant is the most cliche thing, but a little bit of green has a great effect on happiness. Being at a cubicle all day is not pleasing, but a little life on your desk can give you a little life, too.

I think you could say L.A. has a bit of a cookie-cutter gay community.
I would be Sassy Spice.
I love Marcel Wanders.
I tend to lean toward a more minimal aesthetic, so when I use wallpapers in my interiors, I like for one or two prints to be the star of the show. I would recommend being careful in your use of strong prints so the room doesn't get too busy. Use one print that dominates and one as an accent.

De-cluttering can be overwhelming, so start with that one small thing. Clean out your junk drawers. It can lead to so many more beautiful things. Start there, and you'll find yourself cleaning the whole rest of the house.
A lot of people think that black makes rooms feel smaller, but it's the opposite.
I'm not a Bal Harbour Shops kind of guy.
Being in New York has definitely intensified my desire to be different and individual.
Window treatments are like a nice suit - you want them to fit and the tailoring to be just right.
