There’s no better feeling than setting foot inside your home, sweet home after a long day. Beware, the king (or the queen) of the house is back! Imagine: there’s one lucky family that runs a whole kingdom of houses with a teeny-tiny nuance. The Brinks family owns 6 houses, each one only 160 square feet in size, that look as if Dad from Honey, I Shrunk the Kids had shrunk their home instead.
We all have that friend: every time you go to her house, everything is in its place, the counters are shining, and the toilet doesn’t have that pink ring around the bowl. I used to think that these kinds of people were like Monica from Friends: genetically wired to love cleaning. I assumed that they […]

Today I went looking for a 2 storey floor plan to share with you. These can be tricky to find (good plans anyway), because you need to be able to visualise these. Sometimes it’s hard to get your head around where everything will sit and where the stairs will be…

Tiny House in France So, Versailles is a monstrously huge place. I'm not sure how you could see everything in a day. I chose to concentrate this trip out in the royal gardens, and a confusing walk got me into this place. It's not exactly secret, but I didn't know about it until I walked up upon it! It is called "The Hameau de la Reine", and is generally known as the Queen's Hamlet. It was built for Marie Antoinette between 1785 and 1792. It is lovely, and this is only one of the many little places I captured there... more soon! - Trey Ratcliff Read the rest of this entry here at the Stuck in Customs blog.

Description Our Large TV and Media Storage Unit is a classic yet contemporary design. Inspired by traditional Shaker style furniture, this piece is designed to house a TV screen and everything else that comes along with it. The goal is to incorporate the technology of modern day life into our living spaces in a way that is stylish and complimentary to our individual tastes. The adjustable shelving around the TV allows space for you to display your own decorative pieces. The painted shelves rest on metal pins that allow you to adjust their position up and down. The base cupboards below also include cable holes so that you can use this storage to hide away other media devices and accessories. The Shaker style doors and drawers below present a versatile, pared-back yet elegant design that is suited to any contemporary or traditional interior. Traditional details include a beaded back panel and decorative cornice. Make this design your own by choosing any Farrow & Ball colour for the painted finish. Make a statement with a fun colour or opt for something more neutral for a softer feel. Choose from our selection of hardware finishes to customise your design to the smallest detail. Need a different size? If you would like this design in a different size to suit your space, please Contact Us for a quotation. Adding a TV This unit provides space for a 65 inch TV to be hung or stood inside. There is a removable shelf with a fixed position below the TV which can hold a sound bar. If you wish to mount your TV you will need a wall mounting bracket, we can create a cutout for this based on your given dimensions. We include cable holes in the back of each storage space to help organise wires and keep them out of sight. There are two cable holes provided in the top, one for the TV screen and one for a device below. Lighting We offer integrated lighting for this design to transform your beautiful piece of furniture into something even more special. This additional feature includes a pre-fitted LED COB strip that is fixed across the top behind the front frame.

This lighting will provide a warm 2700k glow and is all connected ready for you to plug straight into a mains electrical socket.

Streams on the grounds of the ancient Ram Inn had to be diverted for a church, and, according to lore, this opened a portal for dark energy.
Here’s a really great family home which would suit a regular block of land (by looking at it you’d need around 20m frontage though). I like the space and layout with the living through the middle. Kids up the back and parents at the front. YES! Here are some other things…
We all need to appreciate our parents more. I am well aware that not every parent out there is the same and a lot of them simply don't care as much about their family as they let on. But the ones who do end up taking care of everything around the house and it isn't
Roadtrippers Magazine shines a light on the people, places, and road trips that perfectly intersect popular culture and the obscure.
Twenty-one houses in and around Marfa, Texas, provide a glimpse at creative life and design in one of the art world’s most intriguing destinations. When Donald Judd began his Marfa project in the early 1970s, it was regarded as an idiosyncratic quest. Today, Judd is revered for his minimalist art and the stringent standards he applied to everything around him, including interiors, architecture, and furniture. The former water stop has become a mecca for artists, art pilgrims, and design aficionados drawn to the creative enclave, the permanent installations called “among the largest and most beautiful in the world,” and the austerely beautiful high-desert landscape. In keeping with Judd’s site-specific intentions, those who call Marfa home have made a choice to live in concert with their untamed, open surroundings. Marfa Modern features houses that represent unique responses to this setting—the sky, its light and sense of isolation—some that even predate Judd’s arrival. Here, conceptual artist Michael Phelan lives in a former Texaco service station with battery acid stains on the concrete floor and a twenty-foot dining table lining one wall. A chef’s modest house comes with the satisfaction of being handmade down to its side tables and bath, which expands into a private courtyard with an outdoor tub. Another artist uses the many rooms of her house, a former jail, to shift between different mediums—with Judd’s Fort D. A. Russell works always visible from her second-story sun porch. Extraordinary building costs mean that Marfa dwellers embrace a culture of frontier ingenuity and freedom from excess—salvaged metal signs become sliding doors and lengths of pipe become lighting fixtures, industrial warehouses are redesigned after the area’s white-cube galleries to create space for private or personally created art collections, and other materials are suggested by the land itself: walls are made of adobe bricks or rammed earth to form sculptural courtyards, or, in one remarkable instance, a mix of mud and brick plastered with local soils, cactus mucilage, horse manure, and straw.
