Speaker 1: Let's say good morning to the host of home on
Speaker 1: KF it's the house whisper Dean Sharp Morning.
Speaker 2: Dean morning, Amy.
Speaker 1: So all the world is a stage, including your house. Huh.
Speaker 2: Absolutely explain please. Well, you know, when it comes to
Speaker 2: home design, most people feel out of their depth in
Speaker 2: trying to figure out what to do with their home,
Speaker 2: what's wrong with their home? How can I make this
Speaker 2: thing better? And so I'm always looking for ways, metaphors, images,
Speaker 2: examples to help explain and kind of break down what
Speaker 2: good design looks like. And this weekend we're going to
Speaker 2: approach it from the perspective that great architecture is truly theater.
Speaker 2: And what I mean by that is there are certain
Speaker 2: things that those of us who live in the twenty
Speaker 2: first century do understand about theater, whether we're watching a
Speaker 2: stage play or watching a movie or a TV show,
Speaker 2: and that is that there are, you know, for for instance, components,
Speaker 2: there are lead actors, there are parting actors, there are
Speaker 2: extras that are in the background, there are scenes that
Speaker 2: are behind them, and that there's kind of a hierarchy,
Speaker 2: right that not everybody can be talking at the same time,
Speaker 2: not everybody can be at the front of the stage.
Speaker 2: At the same time, there are focal points in every scene,
Speaker 2: and that's the way the director gets the story told.
Speaker 2: And if we were to stand in any given room
Speaker 2: in our home and ask those same questions of the
Speaker 2: things that are there, we could start to actually, you know,
Speaker 2: break apart the understanding of why our rooms don't make
Speaker 2: the effect that they could make, and apply the same principles.
Speaker 1: I love that. Fun. What a fun analogy. And then
Speaker 1: part of the all the World's of stage thing too
Speaker 1: is that, and you've talked about this with us before,
Speaker 1: is how you want to tell your story through your house.
Speaker 2: Exactly. I mean, that's the whole point of I hope
Speaker 2: it's the whole point of people wanting to make their
Speaker 2: homes more beautiful, not just more beautiful in a generic
Speaker 2: magazine spread sense, but more beautiful in the way that
Speaker 2: it enhances and tells the story of who they are
Speaker 2: because it's your home. And so by using this metaphor
Speaker 2: of theater and applying it in different ways, I'm hoping
Speaker 2: that it will continue to help people understand how it
Speaker 2: is that we can affect change to those spaces.
Speaker 1: I love that, and you're going to talk about that
Speaker 1: all weekend.
Speaker 2: We'll be taking calls on Saturday and of course always
Speaker 2: open to talking about this, but the big show on
Speaker 2: Sunday from nine to noon. Great architecture is Theater.
Speaker 1: I love it, so six to eight on Saturday you'll
Speaker 1: be taking phone calls on home and then nine to
Speaker 1: noon on Sunday it's home with Dean Sharp. It's our
Speaker 1: very own house whisper and if you'd like to follow him,
Speaker 1: it's at home with Dean. Thank you so much, Dean Sharp,
Speaker 1: Thank you Amy. Talk to you next, Raike
