CHEERFUL INTERIORS

I'm still looking at pictures of home interiors and I thought I'd share a few that I like. How do you like this open plan kitchen and dining room?


I like arched ceilings but there are few of those where I'll be moving.


Craftsman furniture would be nice...it's pricey, though.


I like how a lot of designers have merged Craftsman with Modern. And, do you like those black foreground chairs? The ones I've seen are expensive.


Here's (above) a California Ranch-Style back porch, the kind my favorite L.A. architect Cliff May would have approved of.


Big canvas awnings look great, though this example seems a bit flimsy. What happens when the wind blows?


Haw! A blackboard wall! You'd breathe a lot of chalk in a room like that, but it might be worth it.  You could draw life size caricatures of your family and friends seated at the table, eating and squabbling with each other.


And jasmine curtains...a nice way to cheer up a gloomy room.

I love that cheery kitchen. But, the open shelves holding the dishes? Seems like they would be covered in dust and grease from cooking. Unless of course you just use your kitchen for take out?

Doug: Yeah, I have the same misgivings about open dish shelves in the kitchen. I prefer wood cabinets with multiple glass frames. I wonder why the open shelf concept has caught on so widely?
