Bug pulls the whole composition together. ;)

(I LOVE Schnauzers.)

Love the breakfast table--makes you feel like you're outside.

Love your home. You two have really made it your own! And there's nothing wrong with IKEA if used correctly (I have way too many lamps from IKEA)! I mean, if someone's place looked like Ed Norton's apartment in Fight Club...I could see a problem... :).

I LOVE those three lights in your bedroom.

Oh I just love this. It almost brought a tear to my eye. I love that you arranged everything exactly as you remembered it. There is something great about wanting to share the most specific details of your fond memories with your loved ones--so you can "place" them in the memory with you to share it. But you actually recreated it!! To make new ones!

If I had my way, I'd buy my grandparents lake house in Wisconsin. I put the same '70's disco-floor carpet back in, the same wood paneling, the same orange, yellow and green wallpaper back up (the orange room, the yellow room, the green room) and I'd put my grandpa back out on the back porch watching a thunderstorm.

Like it! Do you own or rent?--just noticed your dog. We live in a loft in River West that is similar, but can't have dogs, as we rent :(. I love the typesetter's trays on the wall, as I'm also a designer. Also love the "S" sign in the office. Did you find that at Architectural Artifacts or Salvage One maybe?

Also, do you find that have the loft walls that don't go to the ceiling are the biggest hindrance to a child-friendly home? I worry about that.

One more thing--I'm all for the critique process, but I wish that if people didn't have anything nice to say, they'd just refrain from posting.
