Minimal. It's about not spending time cleaning.

Love the high table at the window, as did another. I also like the layout of the open cabinets in the kitchen.....why do we have to make everything so over-built? Lots of nice, fun things about this place. Mainly I like openness.

I agree about not using mineral oil since it's a petroleum product. I like the salt/citrus tip!

Love all the wood and how it was moves the inside. The wood behind the bookcase that leads to the loft is offset at a pleasing angle. The whole thing is fun to look at and admire. Tip of the hat to you two!!! Love it to death!

Who'd'uv thot to do such a make-over! It's fun to witness results of thinking outside the box. Thanks to Apt Therapy for bringing a rolling house makeover to us.

Oh, the valley girl inflection.....

Here in HI we wear t-shirts/shorts EVERYwhere. I opted for no drawers. Built a vertical shelf unit with cubbies about the size of what I thought my "wardrobe" would hold (if I put a new, I recycle an old). I roll my t's in the clothing top shelf, 2-fold the shorts below shelf into 2 rows, and longer pants below 3-fold into 2 rows. I can see it all.

The blossom in your photo is from a tree, we called her as kids growing up in Hawaii, Horse Piss Tree. Because, if you squeeze the pod before the flower forms, it streams out liquid from the pointed end. How fun is that? Maybe Ursula would like to try....

"Daring" I ditto with another post; more bravado than I would try. Artwork and their display is museum quality. Are those copper tubing lamps I see everywhere? I wanna do-it-yourself on how to bend the tubing. My taste would be to leave doorways unfettered for viewing great runner rugs in hallways and narrow rooms. Lots of ideas :)

Like the wood planking and slats in exterior and furniture. Makes for great visual lines and contrast to white interior paint.

Love photos of that dawg :) ! Maybe if fed dog food sans the common containing sodium selenate or inorganic arsenic, he may be free of ADHD :)
