Where I live, diapers (and anything contaminated with human or animal feces) are not allowed in the municipal compost, whether or not they say "compostable."

It's beautiful, but if being eco-friendly was the goal it might have made more sense to build a smaller home.

I took the p-trap out of my sink and use a 5-gallon bucket to catch the greywater, which I use for watering fruit trees. I just have to remember to empty the bucket regularly, and to reassemble the p-trap if I'm rinsing anything that might be noxious to my plants.

I'm gen X/Y and a Master Gardener. Most of my friends garden, and I think gardening and urban homesteading are currently enjoying tremendous popularity among gen X and gen Y folks. Perhaps the "gardening industry" doesn't think there are enough gardeners in my generation because (whether from lack of money or a diy mindset) we think gardening is about growing stuff, not about buying stuff.

Beautiful! I like the red table.

This is huge for a one bedroom; I would have liked to see pictures that give a better sense of the layout. Also, why no picture of the kitchen?

I love the mix of woods in the furniture, but I think having so much stuff crammed in there makes the space seem smaller than it is.

I does look nicer, but I think it's overzealous to call this a "180° makeover."

Gregory H: I will never be tired of exposed brick, especially if it's so nicely weathered as this is.

I'm surprised the casings from the two different models fit interchangeably.
