More space does not mean it's better. It just means you have more space to hoard poo poo, heat/cool, and clean.

I just bought an 868 sqft house near downtown and the size gets some comments from friends but at the same time each of them has at least one bedroom in their houses filled wall to wall with boxes, and a sizable mortgage while being stuck in suburbia.

Judging solely by time spent in different locations is a little facile, because it doesn't gauge the value of that time. If I have to dedicate half a room towards some physical therapy equipment that I only need to use once a week, but the alternative to that is me driving an hour each way to a hospital, is that a bad use of space? Conversely, should we be spending all our time clustered around the TV just because it's a compact use of space? Might we be happier if we instead spent that time in greenhouses, or studios, or workshops?

I certainly wouldn't argue that a room that you effectively never use is a good idea. But on the flipside, I remember like a week ago having an argument about how you can't always find the perfect house and may prefer to settle for getting more house than you want, rather than less house.

gently caress barn doors on the interior of any house. I'll accept them as garage doors or vehicle gates but that's it. :colbert:

I don't get barn doors, and when I see them I cringe. If I have a door, I want it to actually seal off 2 rooms from one another and block sounds. There's no way barn doors do more than just visually separate 2 rooms right? I'm planning on adding a bathroom to my second floor (I actually only have 1 bathroom in my house, PRADA SLUT, I promise) and looking to use pocket doors.

I don't understand the barn doors. It's all the downsides of pocket doors except you're also losing all the wall space from where they slide. Pockets at least are very space efficient.

I too am curious how it got fixed and how it turned out. There was some talk of a sand pit? We talked about the possibility of mold growth in river rocks that bath water would splash on and how to test for that.

You're gonna have to pry my manly masculine overstuffed dead cow armchair with cupholder and remote control corral out of my cold dead vagina adjacent butt. BIG LEATHER ARMCHAIRS FOREVER.

And gently caress you those walls are gonna be dark timbered paneling to the chair rail and the tops painted hunter green. WITH PLAID CURTAINS.

Whew. I'm glad you knocked oversized brown leather dadchairs, because otherwise I would have completely agreed with you, and we just can't have that. You're right about everything else, though. Heck, you're even right about oversized brown leather dadchairs for hyper-masculine offices. Oversized dad chairs should be reserved for the chill den where you read books, listen to music, and tie flies on Friday night before you go fishing on Saturday morning.

Jesus Christ, at least build a bookcase in front of the door so you can hide someone in it if the need arises.

I love how this article acts like it's Fixer Upper ending that's making this stuff go out of style, instead of everyone just getting sick after a half a decade of it. Still, I guess it's the end of an era of sorts.
