Youth Decay posted:This style of bungalow is quite unusual for Richmond; single-family homes built in the 1920s tended to be two-story Colonials and Foursquares. The ad states that they think it's a Sears kit house but I haven't seen any Sears houses from the 20s that really resemble it. It could be a kit from another manufacturer, but the garage makes me think it's a custom build. Hmmm.... The old streetcar suburbs in San Diego are packed with houses like this, only without basements. They really are pretty great, especially if you can get one that still has the original woodwork. If they didn't all cost $600,000 I'd buy one myself.

JEEVES420 posted:Mine has specified bins for every week trash and then for bulk you just put it out on the curb same day at no additional charge. Don't even have to call ahead, they send a truck around looking for it on the curb. We have mandatory separated bins for different recycling and trash. The trash cops went through my Italian colleague's bins and fined him a load for not following the rules. Tbf he has also had over 20 speeding tickets in the last year so may not be adapting that well. Also you have to buy expensive trash bags from the state which cover the cost of disposal. Seems like a good idea to me.

 Halloween Post - Interior of a VampireAnne Rice's former home , a 140 year old New Orleans mansion is on the market, and it's been beautifully restored!    What a nice restoration, appropriate to the period of the house and maintaining lovely original features like the fireplaces and detailed moldings.   And there's the mcmansion garbage   The space says "where we bathe our mistress in the blood of virgins" but the fixtures say "kitchen and bath design showroom"  This room is an atrocity.  This patio is just sad.

Sounds like you'll find what you want in a paint store. Slap some color on the walls, and start looking at resale venues for whatever furniture strikes your fancy. Don't worry about matching or any kind of planned look. As you introduce what you like, you'll start to narrow down what you're looking for by style and function.

I'm not quite that austere/styleless but I'm definitely not going as bold as I want to This is my house as of five minutes ago -   The pig was an adoption day gift to my daughter so it gets a place of honor on the mantle  Most of this stuff is secondhand midmod or secondhand ikea/west elm

Mocking Bird posted:I'm not quite that austere/styleless but I'm definitely not going as bold as I want to It looks pretty good! Just paint the walls a color and get some soft furnishings and more art to fill the space. A lot of the cozy-clutter look is about packing the walls so the room feels closer without actually putting in more furniture to obstruct movement. Maybe start looking around for stuff to replace the obvious flatpack pieces IF you want to.

Other than that just go get a pot of like, duckegg blue or copper paint and get a wall done.

Would it blow your mind to know that the round coffee table is a replacement for an even bigger surfboard style coffee table?  In reality it's not quite as crowded as it looks from that angle, you can walk around all sides of the table. Still not ideal. My family are also all obsessed with putting their feet on things and will kick each other to death if someone's feet enter their personal space lol.

I kept thinking "why does this remind me of home despite me not having any nice things" (and also "wow that's an ugly carpet" but that's beside the point) and just now I realized. RED WALLS   (No I won't clean my VDU, I bought it from a bar basement for 50€ and that's as clean as I can get it.)

It reminds me of a smaller version of the Japanese soaker tubs. I'm sure they have a specific name but they were common in all of the Japanese apartment AirBNBs I have stayed in.
