I think it looks great - sometimes it's nice to have dark and cozy den. Add some bright accent colors with pillows and accessories, but please don't ditch the wood blinds! I think they look wonde...

Hard to tell much with just one photo, but I can safely say that a fireplace is a pink elephant that can't be removed from a room. Then again, I agree with Dorothy Draper about using fireplaces as...

It depends on your budget, and how you feel about embracing the green. Personally, I'd work with it because I prefer old and solid tubs/toilets. That avocado hue definitely could veer into a Holl...

I like it, except for the gawky white rug. Frankly, it's refreshing to see something that isn't midcentury modern featured here. If I see one more Miller shell chair...

Just out of curiosity, what would it cost to reupholster two chairs like those?

The cheapest and easiest solution would be to color-code your clothes. It's surprising what a difference that makes.

The Corona collection at Macy's is similar (and far more affordable than something from R&B!).

What a coincidence. My dog just won the rug war a few days ago and has been enjoying her new bed tremendously. For some reason she LOVED sleeping, rolling, and drooling on my beautifu...

Why not start an archival site for Domino, Blueprint, House & Garden, etc.? Those of us with back issues could scan and post...pesky copyright laws be damned.

I'm sitting in my office at a beige l-shaped Steelcase desk right now. Nice and roomy, but certainly not ergonomically friendly.

I want Harvey's green velvet sofa, except with less-saggy cushions.

I've had this in my bath and kitchen for almost a year and love it. It was super-easy to install, and several folks have mistaken it for real wood. FWIW, I think Five Guys Burgers u...

I grew up having live xmas trees, and though my boyfriend fought it tooth-and-nail, I'm continuing the tradition. Nothing tops the aroma of a fraser fir coupled with the sight of tacky multicolore...

Sheesh, judging by some of these responses why not change the title from "House Tour" to "Good Question"? I'll agree that it seems kind of young and mishmashed, but everybody has to st...

With such rich colors, I think that painting the doors to match the walls would look best.

Spray foam is somewhat pricey, but works pretty well: (http://www.icynene.com/). You can also rent a machine from Home Depot and spray cellulose insulation in yourselves. Othe...

http://www.savannahoffthebeatenpath.com/ There's a design district north of Forsyth Park along Whitaker Street (near Jones Street...

I'd love to eat by 7, whereas my boyfriend usually doesn't want to eat before 10. We've compromised somewhat - when I cook, we eat no later than 8, and when he cooks it's closer to 915 (by which t...

I can't picture someone with five-inch Manolos or a short skirt or a suit ever wanting to come to your parties if you have a conversation pit. Maybe it's just me, but I'd consid...

I believe the beige stones are "pea gravel", I know that they're sold by the bag at Home Depot/Lowes. I've also seen paver stones in that material at specialty garden shops. They're...
