Are stairs with no risers something y’all are all terrified about or something? Both the townhouse I grew up in in the UK and the townhouse I live in now in the US have riserless stairs and no one has died or been injured yet.

Another issue with those steps is that you can't remove any of the supports so you can't really use the space underneath, but the semi-open nature means it will accumulate dust and small children. Unrelatedly, apparently I should tell you you don't know poo poo about cars

Using the area underneath for storage would ruin the A E S T H E T I C S. What you could do is display sculptures down there, maybe have a fish tank.

Yeah, I was talking more about the dog tracking mud everywhere than I was about the cold. My dog can freely go in and out as he chooses, thanks to a doggy door, which also means I can't wipe his feet off every time he comes in. It works out because I'm in a temperate climate, he only rarely tracks in mud, and he sheds so much fur that I have to vacuum regularly anyway.

TooMuchAbstraction posted:Yeah, I was talking more about the dog tracking mud everywhere than I was about the cold. Up north, houses tend to have mud rooms for changing into/out of your cold or wet weather gear. If you have a doggy door (which you probably don't because they let all the heat out), it'll be on the mud room door, so dogs won't have access to the main of the house until they've had the big chunks wiped off.

Or you can be like my parents and put a big hole in the mudroom wall so the dogs can come in whenever they want, then go ahead and cut a hole in the door between the kitchen and mud room so you don't have to get up to open the door, ever, and the dogs can track mud all over the house 24/7/365. Also be sure that the yard is muddy at all times of the year to really enhance the experience. AND now you have a walk-in freezer for 5 months out of the year!! Win/win, especially if you like dirty floors.

Of course, everybody else mentally rolls their eyes because the closest those homeowners will ever actually get to ‘roughing it in simpler times’ is when they choose to cook pre-cut steaks from a grocery store on a mass-produced $700 gasoline grill.

Trends all look stupid if you don’t like them, but right now I’m ready to say goodbye to large pieces of text and those barn doors. And of course we received a large sign as a gift that says “Love You More”. I wish I had opened it first and quietly disappeared it.

It’s also centered and not usable for two people with one using each sink, and the shelves are open. I think open shelving looks messy if you’re using it as general storage and not for decorative display that is a waste of effort and a collector of dust.

I've never lived in a barn but I've lived somewhere with a barn and the barn was nice. Aside from the bees. And the pigeons. And all the spiders. And the occasional rodent. The cat was nice though except for the one time it wasn't our cat but some other cat and we scared the poo poo out of each other - that wasn't nice. Welp that's my nice barn assessment; it was pretty nice.
