When I was a teenager and just beginning to love design, I imagined my grown-up life would look like this. It doesn't and never has. I am not even sure that it feels right for me as a place to live, although I bet I could get used to it.
It is a pretty awesome space and the exposed brick is romantic in an urban kind of way.
I am not sure I like the bedroom cum garage-reno.
What was your grown-up house supposed to look like? Do you live there?
Funny, you are making me think back ... I think I also "lived" in a loftish apartment in the city. But then I love the country ... and that is where I am now. I would still do a City Life! xo
ReplyDeleteThis is a beautiful apartment Kerry - I guess for me, luckily, living grown-up is exactly where I am now, toys scattered on the floor, kitchen all messed-up from cooking, basically, perfectly imperfect! have a nice day!
ReplyDeleteI had the same dream - urban loft with exposed brick walls! I suppose for a suburban kid like me living in the midwest, this was glamour with a "u."
ReplyDeleteI lived many places but never in a loft. I mentioned retiring to downtown city space, and my husband couldn't wrap his head around not being able to walk out into your own yard.
Very, very cool!! I could live there :) What I love most is the exposed brick. And all that natural light is pretty awesome!!
ReplyDeleteHappy May Day :)

I wanted a post and beam barn. My 6'5" husband grew up in cozy rooms of old houses and hated the idea of open space. Now, almost 38 years later, we have a compromise the back end of our house (about 53' long) will be one big dining room, library, kitchen, pantry, morning room with big windows looking out to the garden. I call it our retirement apartment!
ReplyDeleteThat was kind of my dream look as well! I had a neighbor with a FLWright-ish brick contemporary home that I coveted all my life, and still do. I love brick walls and leather.
