exterior paint - fun, but doesn't ruin woodsy feel

Q

exterior paint

Q

Photo

simple, nice barn door

Q

Photo

very nice kitchen overall, if maybe a little too country. really like the style and color of the blue-gray cabinets and barn door.

Q

Photo

maybe if we have glass on our barn door, it can match the style of any glass we have on cabinet doors

Q

Photo

great tile / backsplash (in small doses)

Q

Photo

color scheme is nice, backsplash tiles nice, just a little too traditional

Q

Photo

cool stools

Q

Photo

again, strong bursts of color are fun, but nervous about doing something bold that misses the mark.

Q

Photo

nice stools

Q

Photo

these green chairs are fun. strong bursts of color are fun, but nervous about doing something bold that doesn't look good.

Q

Photo

maybe big or at least colorful light fixtures would look good. but we seem to prefer fairly basic pendants like these.

Q

Photo

basic stools are probably fine near the pool table

Q

Photo

cool stools. comfortable?

Q

Photo

nice color scheme, ok chairs, nice lighting, maybe less moulding on cabinets

Q

Photo

nice chairs, nice pendants, ok color scheme

Q

Photo

bar chairs are kinda plain, but not bad either

Q

Photo

tool storage - yes please

Q

Photo

had not considered cabinets/storage on back of counter overhang. hmm...

Q

Photo

nice blue, very convenient storage

Q

Photo

good colors, efficient layout, lower reach to cabinet over washer/dryer

Q

Photo

like this a lot: height of washer/dryer, convenience of clothes rod, place above appliances for laundry basket (when no clothes overhead), medium-high counter for folding and storing laundry detergent at an easy height)

Q

Photo

very close to current best guess of room size, layout, colors (except plain white counters); many features make sense too

Q

Photo

if we don't have a space above washer-dryer to place the basket, i like having the cabinets right on top of the appliances -- and not completely shallow -- so it's easy to reach detergent and other supplies.

Q

Photo

like raised appliances with good storage above and below, though this specific example is just a block wall and not visually appealing

Q

Photo

laundry - under-cabinet pet pen? but what if next owner doesn't have a pet?

Q

Photo

sink opposite washer/dryer might work well. allows counter space to side of appliances, if overhead cabinets come all the way down to the top of raised appliances

Q

Photo

laundry - storage for ironing and vacuum (and brooms) please

Q

Photo

laundry - clothing rod somewhere would be good, but only ~24-30 inches would be enough

Q

Photo

yes, some sort of broom closet would be great. maybe vacuum(s) too. but not with liquids.

Q

Photo

great if we can find a good place for ironing board in laundry room, but don't like this particular idea

Q

Photo

like counter space between sink and appliances, but it creates a dead corner

Q

Photo

raised washer dryer is good, cabinets extend over appliances to reach heavy detergent easily

Q

Photo

great example of a style we used to love, but don't embrace lately - olives, mustard, beige, maple

Q

Photo

Liz loves cabinet color; otherwise meh

Q

Photo

not sure if we want any glass in upper cabinets, but probably yes -- otherwise too many solid cabinets, not enough color or depth variation

Q

Photo

nice lighting over island, nice light gray blue wall

Q

Photo

great blue color, great stool design, euro cabinets look good, interesting two-tone approach; not enough color/tone contrast floor vs cabinets

Q

Photo

another angle of wall cabinet with accordion

Q

Photo

possible storage idea rather than uniform shelves for 12" deep upper half of floor to ceiling shelves

Q

Photo

nice pendants, nice gray bar chairs, nice cabinet pulls

Q

Photo

nice color scheme, nice style. blue walls with shelves are very nice. maybe a little too much white.

Q

Photo

very attractive, but just a little too formal/fancy for us

Q

Photo

cabinet color is a strong candidate, style good too; two tone dark gray seems odd

Q

Photo

cabinet color is enticing - but maybe too ambitious, hard to work with

Q

Photo

nice blue cabinets -- one of the darker/stronger colors that Liz likes

Q

Photo

cabinet style and color nice; maybe too dark for Liz; stacked oven/convection microwave is nice

Q

Photo

like the small clothing rod in laundry room

Q

Photo

pull-outs under sink is a great idea

Q

Photo

yes please

Q

Photo

we do like craftsman style a bit, but this is too fancy for us

Q

Photo

same nice room, diff angle. Liz doesn't like wood wall, but Leonard does :)

Q

Photo

media storage; need capacity for 200-250 albums

Q

Photo

old school with good function. not sure we want to go with 60's style. but ecclectic can be fun.

Q

Photo

wall is great - color good, albums great; area rug good; cabinets good; lamp good; couch good; chair good (liz) not good (leonard)

Q

Photo

custom album drawers - beautiful, but probably not worth it.

Q

Photo

family room pretty good. don't like beige furniture, but it works with dark floor. subtle wall color very nice.

Q

Photo

good color combo, good style for most things (window coverings, rug, fireplace are favorites). maybe leans a little too hard on the earth tones.

Q

Photo

nice colors, though feel and furnishings are a bit too farmhouse

Q

Photo

idea - seating near angled corner of family room - could double as dining table seating if we want to scoot the table toward the windows from time to time. like - how lighter colors complement darker floor like - sconces; similar to living room

Q

Photo

nice wall color; feel is both cold and warm
