Love the kitchen and the windows :)

Well done! One of my favourites so far!

Oh, the colors and light! Just amazing!

This is how I interpreted the floor plan: a bathroom is on the left - there's a blue toilet, and on the opposite side of "a person walking" is a shower and sink. Then there are two closets, a kitchen, and, on the far right, something that looks like a bed (wish I colud see a photo of that area).
To me, this is both small and cool. Got my vote :)!

Hi
I'm a school psychologist in a high-school, and I think it's a shame how we neglect the environmental aspect of learning envirnoment (expecially compared to elementary school). So, I'm glad that you're eager to put some effort in it, and belive you've gotten some great tips here.
What I'd like to add (or stress out more, I think someone mentioned it) is that beside making a homey atnosphere for your students, I'd encourage you to find a way to let them do something for themselves. We all have the need to personalize our environment in order to feel like it's our and that we belong there. I could go on and on about it, but if you're interested in the idea, you could check up my blog about environmental psychology, mindshapedbox.wordpress.com where I just recently wrote about the effects of classroom personalization, school building condition, home environment etc., on children's academic achievement, self-esteem, etc. Btw Maxwell's teaching experience inspired me, too.

At first I thought it was John Cash's lake house. As I recall from the movie Walk the Line there were similar windows, the view and overall "warm" style. Beautiful indeed. Thanks for sharing.

I second that dance studio <3

Amazing! I'm sooo impressed!

So beautiful and elegant :)
