If you put the TV along the wall to left of fireplace, is there room for a sofa facing it? You would see the back of the sofa upon exiting the elevator. Then the space in front of fireplace could be another sitting/play area. Just get a smaller sofa/settee for that area do some small movable tables instead of a large coffee table. We had the space in front of our sofa empty when our twins were babies, then added a coffee/art/play table when they got a bit older.

I went back to check out the full house tour again--still love this place. Is it a problem showering without a curtain? Also, I grew up in Highland Park (S. Ave. 60, between the freeway and the gas station) and I'm curious: Are your kids going to the local school? (No judgement either way, just curious! We are trying to buy a house in the Bay Area and struggling with trade-offs of neighborhood vs house.)

So which latex mattress did you choose?

Just looked at this again because it's stuck in my mind. So lovely! One of my favorite things is the desk in the to picture--that angle makes it fit right in that space. Is it a custom piece of a vintage find?

Did Charley build the twin bed in the first kid's room? If not I would love to get the source.

Get a baby gate for the toddler's door. Don't become those parents who end up with an 8-year-old in your bed at a certain point every night!

Does anyone know if Ikea still sells that range? It looks sort of like the PRAKTFULL PRO A51 S but in black instead of stainless.

Leela, could you answer the questions about the table top and legs? Several of us want to know. Thanks.

Love it all, but I really want to know how to go about getting zinc countertops like that? Thanks!

What's that knife rack? Our rental kitchen has really shallow counters, so we have the knives up on a magnet to keep away from the kids, but yours looks like it actually encloses the blades?

What's the bed with the cubbies underneath? Looks great.

Sweet! We didn't own a home or have any money for improvements, but we eloped then invited all our friends and family anyway to our 1-bedroom apartment for a wedding party. We moved a bunch of furniture into the bedroom and shut the door, so there would be more room in the living/dining room. We hired a waiter from the local breakfast spot to help us, got a few items catered, and cooked some of our favorite dishes. And we got a plain sheet cake, which I decorated with candied flowers and the topper from my grandparents' wedding cake. With low lights and fresh flowers everywhere, it was lovely.


Real Life, Well Designed: A Wedding at Home

When my husband was a kid his family spent a few years in one of the non-Wright-designed homes in the Westchester County Usonia. He says he has never been so cold in his life (the house had a curved wall of floor-to-ceiling windows, and apparently inadequate heating). But the houses LOOK beautiful.

Beautiful home. I think yours is the same Case Study bed we have, and I have to ask if you have any problems with the mattress sliding away from the headboard. We asked Modernica and they said they'd never heard of the problem before, which I find hard to believe.

When we are finally able to buy, we would love to go the 203k loan route. Any tips on how to find a budget-friendly, green architect/builder in our area?
