So, uh, if one wanted to make potentially hideous interior design moodboards, what program might one use?

The Zillow search term of the day is "LEED". Houses that are LEED certified or whatever, which is kinda bullshit but whatever. LEED Gold: https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/5970-SW-135th-Ter-Miami-FL-33156/122019054_zpid/ wait, did I say kinda bullshit? I meant entirely bullshit, ain't no way this 6500sf Miami monstrosity is "green" in the slightest   https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/1100-Normandy-Ln-Glenview-IL-60025/3356509_zpid/ it's a slightly flattened McMansion but with like a buttload of windows oh god why do those landings look like they're leaning inwards   this house has more dormers than actual roofline  https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/282-Aqueduct-Rd-Washington-Crossing-PA-18977/9104557_zpid/ this reminds me of the previous house but it's almost square and has just 3 rooflines so I guess I can't criticize it too much   LEED Platinum: https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/1871-Indian-Trail-Rd-Bloomfield-Hills-MI-48302/24494282_zpid/ by Young & Young (2010), another house that is way too big to be eco-friendly    https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/943-Monastery-St-Cincinnati-OH-45202/170843548_zpid/ by Bronzie Design & Build (2021) this house is, as the kids say, A Mood   yeah I was expecting a Chair here too, the color scheme fits    https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/248-Kathy-Rae-Dr-Sugar-Hill-NH-03586/113447073_zpid/ by Re:Vision Architecture (2009)   https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/7262-Atlantic-Ave-South-Haven-MI-49090/74606854_zpid/ I have seen a lot of modern interpretations of capital-c Craftsman design and I actually like this one. They kept it simple, didn't go overboard with the embellishments and used a classic floorplan that isn't unreasonably large. Good job, unnamed custom builder.

Chef's choice man. I know the staged photos bias towards expensive homes, I would just like to see some stuff that isn't $$$-$$$$. I think I just feel a little depressed when nothing multimillion dollar homes get posted, because design doesn't HAVE to be expensive, and I want regulars like us to feel like we have a chance at pulling off "a look" too.

Is it better or worse that I assume the actual chassis, engine, drive train, interior etc. are somewhere else I storage or garage? Are there any images from the other side? I wonder if there’s any chance this is just a replica shell or something and there’s not even a real frame under it.

alright here is Zillow Houses Under $500K That I, Youth Decay, Really Like. https://www.zillow.com/homes/34-Hollow-Rd-Woodbury,-CT-06798_rb/57838892_zpid/ just a nice ca. 1750 Dutch Colonial   kitchen is definitely not period-appropriate but is definitely awesome  https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/109-S-Hamilton-St-Poughkeepsie-NY-12601/30082897_zpid/ y'all knew I had to include a fancy Victorian right  This old-timey kitchen timer looks like a slide rule! Also love the sifter funnels for flour and sugar and the cookbook holder.  https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/1930-Berkeley-Rd-Highland-Park-IL-60035/4909104_zpid/ just want to highlight this bar-office-sunroom area right here, it fulfills all of my WFH needs  https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/429-W-State-St-Hartford-WI-53027/40554963_zpid/ $189k for this magnificent Craftsman in Hartford, Wisconsin   https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/825-Ockley-Dr-Shreveport-LA-71106/51358625_zpid/ A truly unique house - built as a Tudor Revival by S. G. Wiener (heh) in 1927 and interior redesigned in MCM style by Lester Haas in 1961   Dining room table and light fixture are Haas originals   https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/8204-Brookside-Rd-Elkins-Park-PA-19027/9910008_zpid/ 1981 passive solar by Alley Friends Architects, basically my dream house the built-in seats round the woodstove, yes please. Also note the use of daylighting and solar gain - the proper amount of south-facing glass for the climate (full walls of windows cause overheating), heat gets absorbed by the mass of the brick and tile for cooling and is released at night.   https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/1210-W-Oliver-St-Owosso-MI-48867/75754330_zpid/ by George Brigham (1950). I know location makes all the difference but still how the gently caress is this only $250k. The house with updated electric and HVAC, the extensive gardens and outdoor living space, the river...and the sculptures outside convey.   https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/4557-Conestoga-Trl-Akron-OH-44321/35335793_zpid/ funky treehouse-ish thing by Gerald Rembowski (1970)  https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/868-New-Concord-Rd-East-Chatham-NY-12060/30000764_zpid/ Been trying to figure out who the architect is but apart from "was clearly an apprentice and/or fanboy of Wright" I've come up empty. Did learn that its former longtime resident was Randy Kaye, drummer for jazz legend Jimmy Giuffre and also briefly for Jimi Hendrix, so that's neat. I love the floorplan, and especially the layout of the bedroom (despite what the listing says this is very much a 1-bedroom house) even though it might be too open for many people. Move from the entry to the main living space to the kitchen to the dining area to the office with built-in desk, which is around the corner from the bed area with the sunken-stone-bathtub, lavatory and dressing area, which then connects to the sitting/TV area, which wraps back to the front door. A center chimney is used for the 3 fireplaces.

BDI is absolutely the gold standard for media consoles, emphasis on the "media" part. If you have a ton of AV stuff there's no comparison. Everything about the design is great, I looked at them briefly and I thought the recessed casters were really cool. I would also agree that a glass top is not ideal, it's just going to get smudged all the time, and worst scenario something heavy drops on it and the glass shatters. actionjackson fucked around with this message at 05:20 on Jul 24, 2021 |

I bought the quad cabinet Corridor in the chocolate finish and media base today. The glass top looks way better in person, it is acid etched and a matte finish and I was told it can be easily buffed to remove any potential scratches. Should be delivered in 4-6 weeks.

 Better. The floor and walls were much too busy, restricting the floor to a single shade and reducing the space occupied by the hectic wall pattern calmed the energy of the room. The bedspread is just my kind of stupid.
