Exposing that brick above the fireplace and giving everything a fresh coat of paint did wonders. Congrats on your new home!

I like this home a lot, and I think the term "well-curated" is a perfect term to use. Their collections are interesting and out-of-the-ordinary. I also appreciate the ways their treasures are displayed. Restraint is what is refreshing about this place. My only criticism is that too much of the furniture is pushed up against the walls - a pet peeve of mine. Well done otherwise. I'd love to stay here for awhile. :)

What a fun house! So much personality. The poodles on the couch kill me.

I have had the same pair of Etymotic Research earphones for nearly 8 years. I can't say enough about their quality. http://www.etymotic.com/

My friend, Matt, had a laundry chute in his house. We lived in a town where a majority of the homes were single-floor ranch homes. It seemed incredible to me at the time.

I like that last comment, JMSNYC. However, I'd add iridescent mosaic glass tile.

We have giant windows and used corrugated plastic sheets over the windows as "frosting." It was a cheap solution that has lasted us nearly 3+ years. However, they are beginning to warp and bow. Still - it's cheaper than frosting the windows.

I think that second one is neat, but there is something hearse-like about it. Does anyone else find it a little creepy?
