I may have mentioned in passing that I joined the Interior Design group here.  I enjoy design.  I don't necessarily practice it in my own home as we always seem to be tearing things apart around here but I enjoy the concept of it.
This is one of the best under-stair storage ideas I've seen.


Since joining the group I get inundated daily with pics and ads from all over the world for layouts and products.  Some interesting ... some__well, lets just say I'm puzzled by the current retro trend of back to the 50's/60's. Most of that molded plastic furniture wasn't attractive [or comfortable] the first time around, why bring it back?

But if you're going to go retro this reminds me of the 60's/70's.


Then there's the new non-color scheme. White.  Everything is white. Oh, you can have accent colors, but the predominant, hit you square in the eyeballs and send you into migraine as soon as you enter a room, is white. Can one say Glare?
 But I do like this bedroom. The dark wood saves it. And I like shutters.
Here is another example of the white scheme__


Anyway, I thought I would go through and pull a few of the more interesting photos [interesting to me, at least] and post them for any who might find them of interest, too.
Yep__white

And this __ have you ever seen such an elaborate foot bath?
And I found this different and therefore interesting. Very masculine. I like the curve of the bed frame.

  2. I like that mural, but I don't like the sofa blocking it, it spoils the effect.

  3. I like the m makes the ceiling feel like it is miles above you. For a claustrophobic (me) this makes small tight places feel huge and expansive.

  4. I love the stair storage. I would have to add a floor to get stairs, but that shouldn't be difficult.
