Very, very nice! Great use of color. Simple clean lines, sophisticated and family-friendly.
Let's see more of these grown-up spaces, please and thank you.
Love the look of twin beds in a guest bedroom. Very practical.
To well-meaning and generous hosts: Fuggehdabout having to push the two beds together and buy a king sized duvet.
Unlike the others here, I think this looks like a hot mess, with too many discordant flavors and textures. Please don't call it mac and cheese.
I'd rather have half a serving of the h...
More bad news: today it was announced that Metropolitan Home is shutting down, after 35 years when it started as Apartment Life.
I have been reading it since that time and just renewe...

Huh? Sure, this home is lovely, but it pales by comparison to many other entries; not the least of which is Michael's stunning home in Laredo. Now that was a color tour de force.

OTOH, the bold colors, the carefully and stylishly arranged tchotkes and books are a treat for the eyes. Artfully done and inviting.
How did you get your husband to sign off on all the frou-frou? Your home is quite beautiful and much airier that the typical dark and heavy Arts & Craft decor (thank goodness)...but my dear hubby w...
LUV, LUV Eddie!
Saw his spooky stuff recently on HGTV...and of course, he was just tops on Bravo's Top Design a few seasons back, even tho he missed the top spot, which went to edgier...
I've been a fan of Peri Wolfman for many, many moons. Her stunning NY loft has been featured many times in Met Home (when it used to be called Apartment Life, that's how far back I remember her.)
Slowly but surely I am winnowing my collection of cookbooks from a full shelf to a handful of the ones that are the most useful.
We are downsizing all of our book collections:we donat...
Glad I wasn't the only one to think the "after" was a "before." This mid-century makeover misses the mark with too much wood and lack of contrast.
I would have liked to see better cho...
IX-NAY on the nursery guest room idea unless -- and only if-- the parents give up their room to their guests and sleep with their baby. Otherwise, fugghedaboudit bunking with a baby.
TWO thumbs up.
Great use of eye-popping color without making one's head hurt. The art of restraint is at home here.
Thoughtful application of of wood in an elegant and s...
A qualified thumbs up. Great floors, pizzaz-ytreatments on the door casings and color palette.
But the overall effect is ruined by those teetering stacks of magazines on the floors an...

This is stunning. And, not just for apartment dwellers. Keep this kind of elegant, grown-up stuff coming here at AT.
Yikes, stripes, love 'em.
Sicilian style with raisins, garlic and anchovies...over pasta...yum.
All that angst, anger, sturm and drang, for what?

Dang! I missed the voting, but I have just two words for this entry: Numero Uno! I have not seen anything yet that comes close.
