I’ve been feeling sick of being in the city and far from any real nature for a while now so I made an ‘ideal’ kind of place I wish I could live in instead to help cope haha.

Today I opened my computer and typed in my chosen search words of the day: “abandoned greenhouse“. Little did I know how many photographs I was about to scroll through. So many, too many! Why is that? Surely we still all eat greens and enjoy decorating our houses with them. Why have so many of these…
Historical evidence suggests humans have been living underground for millennia, first in caves and then later in shallow excavations roofed with sticks, mud and thatch.Just as above-ground homes vary greatly in their construction and appearance, so do underground homes. Types include constructed caves, culvert homes, earth berm dwellings, elevational dwellings and atrium homes.
Sometimes Pinterest boards are so chock-full of crazy amazing design and weird home goodness that I know we all just need to take a few minutes to admire them and their curators. Interior designer Sarah Kelly has one such board: all about tree houses -- both the kind built in the tree and the kind built of a tree.

Here’s a big 4 bedroom contemporary floor plan. I think it would serve a lot of purposes – a family with teens, Grandma living with you, or a great space for frequent guests… So, as you can see the guest room has its own bathroom and WIR. Bedroom 2 and…

When I was in 6th grade, I was invited to a birthday party at a really cool house. I had never seen a house with an outside on the inside. I was fascinated. Yesterday, my daughter and I were surfing the net looking at real estate when I noticed my classmate Olivia's house was up for sale so I decided to try to create a court yard house that had all my essential elements. With 2831 square feet, this is one of my bigger houses. I chose to make the bedrooms fairly large so that intergenerational living would be fairly easy, but the bedroom wing of the house could easily be sectioned off to accommodate another bedroom or two. The master bedroom has direct access to the inner courtyard as do the family and living areas. The large laundry room opens into the master bath, featuring a garden tub and a large walk in shower. The family room can be opened to the kitchen with large double doors, or hidden from view if entertaining guests in the formal living and dining area. Of course there is a large pantry and plenty of closet space. The court yard itself has endless possibilities ... a hot tub, small pool or pond, enclosed with a skylight roof, or no roof at all ... Hope you like it! God Bless You All! ~Grama Sue

These aren’t your ordinary cabins. In fact, they aren’t log cabins at all, rather they are log homes nestled away in the mountainsides of Colorado, Utah, Wyoming, and Montana. No matter where you spend the chilly months, it's safe to say that winter is best enjoyed with a mug of hot chocolate and a warm fireplace,...

You all have been so great talking to me about my house design project. I felt a little bad that my response has often been, “Great idea, but probably not my taste.” Then, almost like the iconic slap upside the head, I realized I hadn’t ever made my taste clear. At least not in houses. […]
Hello! It’s the weekly edition of Floor Plan Friday and today I have this large family home to show you. I am loving the master ‘wing’. Yes, extravagant, but just perfect! I could shove my boys down the back of the house and never leave the master bedroom and my…
If you looked at a map and could pick any place in the whole world to live, where would you choose? Maybe you're partial to the sun and sand. Maybe you crave the mountains. Maybe you love a bustling city or the quiet countryside. Whatever it is, we all have our preferences when it comes to a place to live. A few years ago, my husband Michael and I decided we wanted to live in Europe. We traveled there every chance we could, but wanted a way to really explore all it had to offer. In this post, I hope to explain why we chose Heidelberg, Germany, our thought and decision making process, and why I still think this might be the best place in the world to live.
