Quotes by Bryan Batt

I have my issues with organized religion and cafeteria-style religion, picking and choosing certain dogmas that apply or seem ethical while ignoring the oppressive, non-inclusive, and outdated ones as if they dont exist. The trouble began a long time ago when we tried to bring God indoors. Leave it to mankind to screw it up and to Christians to turn heaven into an exclusive country club.

Be fun! I dont like homes or rooms that dont have a sense of humor or have some sense of whimsy or a personality. Your home should reflect who you are, and what you love. I would never have something in my home because its the thing to have. I have to love it and it needs some connection to me.

Im in love with red. I think its such a passionate color. Every flag of every country pretty much has red it it. Its power, theres no fence sitting with red. Either you love it or you dont. I think its blood and strength and life. I do love red. I love all colors. Great shades of blue, you find them in nature. Theyre all magic.

I always wanted to be an actor, but I always loved design, and growing up in New Orleans there was such great style, great architecture. I would decorate my little apartment in New York over and over again, because it only had a couple of rooms. And I did it for friends and family on the side just for fun.

Gray is great. People think gray is a neutral, but I think its such a moody, intense, dramatic and sexy color. Its very sleek.

People are easily intimidated when they decorate their home. They think it has to be one way. But theres no one way. Its your way, your style. At the end of the day, you have to live there. Its your cocoon, your nest. You have to be happy in it.
