There is something to be said for seeing where and how actually interesting/cool people live, instead of just an endless parade of design addicts who do everything by the book.

Both uses of comprise are now fairly standard. The 'erroneous' use has quite a long lineage. These cottages are very interesting but a little crowded for me, not even physically but ma...

Oh, someone already placed it. Too slow robo!

You can see the same fabric a bit more clearly on their cushions: http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/uimages/chicago/summer...

Wow, this is such a great tour! Things I would never have considered in my own home: very inspiring! And at 12.2 feet wide...it's incredible how open and airy it looks. Thanks for providing paint c...

Umbra also has some brackets that hang from the ceiling: http://www.umbra.com/ustore/product/240483/c0...

Hmmm...I'll join this one as another east coaster!

One rug, must be able to go in the washer.

I pre-inherited the bookcase my grandfather built in shop class about 70 years ago. He's still alive and the family tradition of booklove definitely passed on to me!

Fantastic home! I already have three or four people in mind to send it to. I like seeing minimalist stuff from a design standpoint but as a decidedly non-minimalist person, I love warm, full, colle...

Mint - so hard/impossible to pull off but SO AWESOME when done right. This is a gorgeous room.

I think I said some house tour yesterday was my fave, but now this is my new fave. It's not like I just started looking at them either! I love colour so much, this is a real inspiration as I start ...

Also a huge Zelda fan. You could get your Zelda hankerings out of the way for now with a zelda quilt from Etsy...

Floorplanner is a good way to waste a LOT of time.

Wow, you guys are awesome. I had honestly never thought of switching out the dining room in that way but it makes sense. Now the dining room is rather little used and separated from the living room...

THANKS very much for all the suggestions so far! No fireplace, although I just barely escaped having a hideous fake stone fireplace/bar in there. On the left wall...I do have a black farm bench und...

"Most haven't read half the books on their shelves and understand even fewer." I can't believe that's true...most book lovers I know go through absolutely copious amounts of books and ...

My weirdest knickknack is a fake player-piano jewelry/music box that is, frankly, awesome. I have some nesting dolls of the more traditional variety as well.

SUCH a tchotchke person, and love-hate rules over here, as well. I like neat, interesting, or amusing little trinkets and I like the smiles they bring to the faces of guests. Humour in home decor i...
