I like some of the furnishings and accessories, but the wallpaper, bright wall color, and print mixing keeps me from really loving any of these spaces as they are. 

I like the dark wood armoire in the first room, but I don't like the chairs, prints, or artwork. I've never been a ginger jar fan.  

I like the side table in the second room, but the wallpaper is just too much for me. 

I like yellow, but the shade used in the third room is too bright. The animal rug is a big turn off for me. 

The subtle blue vignette in the 4th photo is the most doable for me, although I don't like the bench in that place. Upon seeing the full photo, I'm not loving the rest of the room.

I think all of the rooms have added a contemporary edge to the traditional furnishings in a good way.  I wouldn't choose any of the looks for myself, but that doesn't mean the designer isn't talented.

I love all the tradtional furniture, especially the first highboy, the handsome sideboard and the painted Swedish-looking chairs.  Elaborate window treatments are never my thing; to me they bring added fussiness I'm not fond of.

I'd prune some of the accessories for my own personal liking, but the art is interesting, especially those architectural prints.

I'm not familiar with Matthew Monroe Bee, @stevieb , but I also find his use of color fun and exuberant.  Reminds me a little of Miles Redd or Jeffrey Bilhuber...

Most of it is sheer clutter and am not a fan of antiques anymore--maybe a piece or 2 but not a whole room. the colors are pretty wild  and the mishmosh of patterns is very distracting----not my cup of tea

@Oznell  I wasn't familiar with his work either until I saw a feature online. I enjoy his aesthetic but, for me, it needs to tone down a bit. I don't have a problem with excess or with color, but not much of a fan of such bright colors combined with excess.

Found the one I like. The sitting area with b&w framed photos.

Most of the furnishings are lovely, love the dinette set and the chairs in the sitting area.  I am a fan of the artwork in the rooms.  I would make changes, however, the color yellow would go and I would change the curtains in the sitting room. It is a pretty home but needs some changes.

They're certainly colorful. I admire people who run with colors they like & aren't afraid of bold choices!

Consistently throughout these pictures are ugly in my opinion window treatments. They gotta go!

I love the bar, so modest.  Gives me an idea.
