agreed. and while i love the idea of walking out of my kitchen with bread, cheese and a wine glass held that way, i'm not loving the $26 per board price (also clicked the link to confirm my answer).

like everyone else, i love this place. great decision to paint one wall green and leave the other wall a lighter neutral color.

Bless your heart for the establishing shots. They make the artistic shots hmm-mmm better. Did you buy or paint the wall of art work on the shelf? It looks eclectic and beautiful.

That price point is out of control. I couldn't vote just based on the design once I saw that number. =^ (

If IKEA made a 'retrospective' collection, it would sell out in a matter of days. Some of their past work is really beautiful stuff. Anyone have any sway at IKEA? Can we get this done? And I concur, VIVA IKEA!

Really imaginative use of materials.

And I like that the entire place feels eclectic. The vanity is very nice, where did you get it from? And did you have to do any work to it, or did it come that way? Also, what do you use said vanity for, cause I didn't see a mirror, so I'm assuming not for makeup. Thanks for sharing this lovingly decorated place with us.

I Like it. I did this a few years ago, but after a few months all my pictures sort of folded in on themselves. How does one keep that from happening?

I think artistic shots are great, but so are easy to understand shots of a room. I'd like to take a house tour and get more than a fuzzy idea of what the room actually looks like. I couldn't draw a floor plan of this house if I had to. We need some quality control for these house tours, this is the second tour in as many weeks that has been less about the house decor and more about...[ok, bitching over].

It's pretty, but impractical. I like the look, just don't know if I have the patience to turn all my books inside out. I've seen this aesthetic at a lot of design stores and in catalogs, I would love to know who started it and why. Thanks AT for posting trends no matter how awesome or asinine they may be, and don't let the the AT bitch criticisms get you down.

Another curtains permanently opened. I'm on the 7th floor and technically there aren't any other buildings near me that high...but sometimes I wonder if the town houses a block over can look up and see me. I do my best not to walk around naked, but whoever can see me has gotten quite a few bra/half naked shots of me over the past year. C'est la vie!

When done right this idea is amazing. I especially like the yellow/green room. I wonder how the bathroom patchwork doesn't get water/steam damaged. Oh to have the patience to do this, I applaud those who take the risk.

I want this place. Why would she sell it? Ack! To have oodles and oodles of money. I want money.

I really like the colors and layout of the bedroom. It gives such a lazy day snuggle in feeling. I would love to hear the renter's thoughts on the living room arrangement. I don't understand it but i want to.

I liked the general feel of the home.

But didn't like seeing all the people because I thought it took away from the point of house calls, which is to see the house. I'm worried that it will get out of control and all house posts in the future will be an opportunity for people to showcase their fabulous events. AT can create a spot for people to post pictures of their events, that way we can keep house calls pure...focused on the house.
