I dunno, I get a restaurant/hotel vibe from those. Like, I wouldn't mind spending a few nights there but it's not somewhere I'd want to live.

Those half circle chairs in the livingroom are insanely good. You can push them together to make a little cradle for your guns.

I know, right? I stared at that thing way too long trying to figure out what it was. Some sort of bassinet? Had to look at the hotel promotional images to figure out "oh, it is two chairs". Just a gilded purple nightmare.

If you're going to do that lamp, you might as well just get an Arco. Are those stools even Cherners?

Something about that place strikes me as "cheap Donaldesque imitation"

Does anyone have any opinions on the Haiku Home fans? I mainly want something as silent as possible that will still move a bit of air. I know there have to be cheaper alternatives but I don't know where to find what's crap and not.

They're made in my hometown by a company mainly known for giant fans for outdoors, industrial areas, etc. There's a fair few Haiku around, as they like to give their employees a pretty steep discount. From friends who have them, they're very well made but they wouldn't spend the money on them if they didn't get the discount, just because it is so steep.

As for cheaper fans, I was looking recently and the problem isn't build quality or reliability, it's style. Low-end ceiling fans are so ugly, I'm convinced it's part of a marketing plan to get you to upgrade. The cheapest of the cheap are louder / more vibrate-y than the mid-grade, but after that it seems like you just start paying for design.

Good to know, thanks. I spent $150 on a fan that was highly recommended and $35 on a remote and was just dissatisfied overall - the fan never would really balance, the remote worked only one time out of a hundred, it was loud, and the dimmer didn't support LEDs. I don't have a problem spending more but I want to make sure the issues I have get fixed as the cost goes up.

Honestly I think that Big rear end Fans is a perfectly acceptable brand for a home decor fan and am a little sad they decided to make a separate brand for their home items.

Holy rap, that whole house is a litany of bad design choices:

Horrible wall textures in every room:


Horrible stenciled cherubs. Effort? Nah, the house is only 1.3 million dollars. Also, note the amount of foam everywhere.


This room makes no sense.


Someone thought this was attractive.

On the left is the main fireplace (out of 5 in the house) which has a working beehive oven!








(not pictured: the informal living room, home office, 4 bathrooms and in-law suite)

Built in 1790! Look at those gorgeous super-wide-beam floors, from before New England was totally depleted of trees of that size. And while I'm sure historical purists aren't big fans I love the little pops of color. They make the house seem much more lively and less like a drab museum piece. Like I can actually picture regular 21st-century people living here.
