Jonathan Galbreath's Profile

PEARMELON – Thank you for the kind words:) The theater wall treatment is not original. It is something we are spreading throughout the house.

COOKSMARTS – Thanks! Yes. There was a full wall when we bought it. It was the first demo project:)

INNEEDOFMAKEOVER – We very much appreciate your response. Thank you so much. We know comments like this, probably wouldn't come from a Buddhist. We are definitely focusing on the positive:) We have been responding because we want people to know what they commenting on so that they don't make the same choices in the future. Have a wonderful night!

WOW. Thanks everyone for your positive comments and constructive criticism. Putting this out there has been a interesting experience. For us, designing and curating a home is about trying things out. It's usually the only physical, "living" piece of artwork we have and therefore always evolves.

Giant typography and artificial taxidermy – We happen to agree with most of what was said. We question many aspects of what we are doing to our home. We still appreciate the use of typography – played out or not. We used to have actual animal taxidermy. We've made choices about our diet and it's just a little reminder of something we used to take for granted.

AA Book – For a casual observer, we complete understand how it could be perceived as irony. We mean absolutely no disrespect to any person who suffers from the disease. We have/had family members that are/were alcoholics. We all know someone. We politely ask that we all question our pretext before we pass judgement.

This is pretty cool community. So many talented, intelligent people – thank you for including us. We look forward to sharing more as our giant art project continues.

Peace,
Jonathan and Jessica

RMBNN – Agreed, and we do that from time to time!

SUNAN – It was a family member's.

Hey Folks!
Thanks for all the wonderful comments. I started to get emotional – it's been a lot of work! I just wanted to answer a few of your questions:

DUANE HILL: Cabinets – oak. We didn't want to throw them out, so we had them painted and coated. The countertops are a now discontinued, acrylic product from Formica.

E.I.F.: Birds – To my knowledge there are 4?! Maybe there is an uninvited guest?

ALL: Guest Bedroom, Nursery and Bathrooms – these are current projects. I didn't feel comfortable showing them, yet. Exterior – the front of the house was bricked in the 70's (actually doesn't look bad). However, we are restoring it back to the original Eichler siding and adding 2 pocket-fences (15' fences that will slide into the front of the house so that the landscape is one continuous flow around the house). Xeriscape – Colorado native plants in a Japanese garden manner, maintained by Godzilla.

Looking forward to sharing updates with you all.

Peace,
Jonathan
