great bones, but a little disappointing decor-wise... i was so excited to click thru based on the cheerful exterior shots, but the inside seems kinda cold & barren. i know u've only been there a year, so I'm sure u have more u would like to do, but i think this place is SCREAMING for some colorful touches... the breakfast nook is so awesome & sunny w that great tree outside, yet it somehow manages to b a little boring & blah. the banquet is so heavy- i think balancing it w some fun throw pillows, a great rug under the table & a vase of beautiful blooms would go a LONG way in cheering the place up. minimal doesnt need to b stark & unfinished looking... i love the hexagon mirror installation & the wooden headboard wall- 2 great examples of simple, yet warm & welcoming.

... something in the same wood tone as the beams would really tie them into the space more... :)

gorgeous! love the kitchen & living room so much! great colors, art, style- but the one & ONLY thing I'm not a fan of is the dining set... gotta agree w herselftheelf on that one... compared to the simple/clean/modern/fresh vibe of everything else, it just feels so 80's & dated... something more in the style of the barstools or a vintage danish modern set would b so lovely... :)

omg i LOVE so many things about this house- great bones, gorgeous finishes, lighting, etc... that bathroom is AMAZING! however, i am not a fan of all the slipcovers. i think they look dated & old fashioned & don't go w the fresh, young vibe of the rest of the house.
