LOVE IT! It's modern, fresh, clean, AND unique and non-coockiecutter! I'm truly amazed... not many people could pull this off. The gold knobs are awesome... they're like a big "eff you" to all the beige and polished nickel lovers out there. I can't wait to see the rest of the place. I'd also love to see it decorated, so please continue to post updates! The World's Ugliest Condo: The Big Reveal Renovation Before & After |

This looks like something out of the Winchester Mystery House. I would rip it out and raise the floor. How To Deal with Sunken Fireplace? Good Questions |

What a wonderful home! It has such character and I love how Steve's personality really comes through. I'm envious of how collection of seascapes and while I'm not a fan of taxidermy, we have to remember that this is his space, not ours. I love that there is nothing cookie cutter happening here.

@Thorndale - because creeping fig is beautiful. And because these people clearly have enough funds to repair any damage that might occur over the long term. Although, I suspect the intention is for the creeping fig to cover the entire wall, coating it in a lush layer of green. A Year-Round Courtyard in Pasadena Professional Project |

Made these today and they are great! Replaced 1/2 cup of flour with whole wheat flour and used dried cranberries instead of raisins. These muffins are moist and delicious, but not too sweet. Great recipe! Recipe: Quick and Homey Oatmeal Raisin Muffins |

Again, MissHeliotrope... electricity & light bulbs were ONLY available for "the rich" when the technology was first made available. It was years later that others began to benefit from the invention. Steve Jobs' Apple: Design as Consumer Engineering Retrospect |

Looks 1,000 times better than the before! Well done! I like the stamped tin backsplash, but I think it would work better to use something that complemented the floor tile. But that's just my personal preference. Still looks great! Before & After: From Wrecked to Airy White Kitchen Two Thirty-Five Designs |

Fifthpocket - Oil-based paint in gloss will give you this result and with no brush strokes! It will also give you a hard-waring finish that will stand up to daily use. I recently did this with a faux bamboo chippendale chair in royal blue and it came out beautifully. Looks like a professional finish. Updating the Traditional: Windsor Chairs in Vivid Color |
