bike! followed by train, followed by car. i'm fortunate enough to live in a place (Chicago) where all three are viable options.

I love that you are featuring an "affordable" home - and with such a great model family! Buying a Land Trust or other affordable home is a great way for families/individuals to live well, affordably, and then to pay that benefit forward to the next buyer.

wonder if there are plans anywhere for this shed - i agree - i'd love to use it as a guesthouse or a rooftop deck addition...kind of reminds me of the pretty prefab sheds that are popping up everywhere...

what a great, original space. love the color - and the hacked board & batten. Did you just apply the lattice over drywall to get that effect? it looks amazing. i want to try it!

i agree - was super frustrating to read the amazing detail the homeowners took the time to share with us and then, instead of seeing photos of said stuff, have to look at a photo of a canteen hanging from a hook. granted, it was a nice canteen, but...

as soon after thanksgiving as I feel like putting up the tree, i do! and usually take it down on Jan 2nd. ish :) we always buy a live tree, and so far, they've always lasted (although i become obsessed, for the month, with checking if they're taking water)
