I found this great house over at Chictip.  It’s called the Jigsaw Residence for its unique construction that resembles a 3-D puzzle, and was designed by architect David Jameson in Maryland. “Set around an open-air courtyard and flanked by terraces on both ends, the modern structure has the look of multiple building blocks in varying […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

This house is crazy, you don’t see cantilevers and huge windows every day!  This home was designed by the amazing and talented Dane Designs Australia.  He took advantage of the amazing views and layout of the home to make sure every room reached its best design potential.

Check out this industrial looking house.  Very unique and interesting.  I found the house at the Kansas City House & Garden website, for more details on the house click here.  I have always wanted a metal door with horizontal windows, but they are so expensive!  The light turquoise blue corrugated siding draws attention to the […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

What does one do with an empty old cathedral??  Well in The Netherlands people are turning abandoned churches in to their home, it’s called re-use or re-purpose.  The idea is to keep the exterior of the building untouched while transforming the inside.  I had a friend when I was younger who lived in a church […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Serene Bathroom

Candice Olsen is one of my top favorite designers.  I love her use of textures and materials.  This bathroom is serene using blues and grays and brushed nickel.  She contrasts the cool colors with the warm of the dark brown.  I love the wall mounted faucets and, like usual, the skylight.

This house make me go Mmmmmmm!  I will probably never live in a contemporary modern house like this but I can dream. Oh wait it gets better… there is a river all around the living room with a waterfall into the pool below, how cool! And look at all those windows, not good for privacy […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Shower Love

I think I could spend more time in this shower then I should. I love the windows and the big bench and the rain fall shower head that drops from the ceiling. I think a few wall mounted shower heads would be nice. I also like the weaved tile on the floor. It might be […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

How Nice

Love the chocolate gray color combined with white. I especially love the wallpaper behind the vanity; nice focal point without being overwhelming. I will be doing more posts on wallpaper in the next few days.

Tiles of Glass

What is it about glass tiles that just makes me giddy with design envy? I was recently helping a client with some remodeling in her kitchen and I thought I would share some of the ideas I gave her. I really need glass tile in my kitchen- I need it! I love how they can […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
