Huisman House
Again, really pretty trim and overall vibe
This is probably way beyond the level of detail and ornament we can afford, but dang it's pretty.
An arched doorway with pocket doors! How cool!
If I weren't using the bumpout in the library to fit in a games table, I would totally ask to do something like this. A window seat that functions as it's own separate room or possibly in a pinch a guest bedroom is an awesome idea.
The trim in this picture is really pretty. I like the crown around the doors; Amanda says that the baseboard would be acceptable IF the quarter round at the floor could be eliminated for ease of dusting.
Amanda liked these high windows letting light travel through the house
If we have an outbuilding, Amanda would love something like this someday.
I can't tell you how much I love the light and shadows this creates. I don't think we could afford it, or have any place to do something like this, but I love it.
If the library looked like this it could work for me too. Those lower cabinets are a nice touch as opposed to having books all the way to the floor.
Love this dining room! Yellow, chinoiserie paper, crystal chandelier
I wish the library could feel like this - or even if necessary have two feet of plaster up by the ceiling painted oxblood. Got two Parisian sconces and a matching chandelier that could go in the library. Sadly no option for a fireplace there, though.
I don't like wood paneling unless there are some sorts of trim detail on the walls. This is enough to get me to like it.
We're wondering about using the 2nd floor future elevator space for some sort of kid's library/reading nook.
I'm hoping to be able to fit a couple pieces of club furniture like this into the library. A d this is still an attractive room, even without paneled walls.
This is what a bedroom window seat should feel like - deep enough to sit sideways and read while glancing into the room or out the window.
Staircase window seat; sort of wish we'd had enough space to do an open stair like this rather than walls in between, but Amanda's also pretty worried about noise bouncing around between floors
I love that foyer flooring
If we have four stairs with exposed railing, I'd love something in wrought iron art nouveau like this if it were possible

Color scheme - living room? Master bedroom?
