![]() Matt had some ideas for how he wanted the room to function so this past weekend I played around with some furniture rearrangement. It was essentially a pretty pass-through. My first shot at the room was nice looking but missed the mark in terms of function. ![]() So per the builder’s vision, this has turned into a hang-out space for my girls. THE APARTMENTĪnnabelle has dubbed this her apartment. The light that floods through here is awesome and yeah, once the girls are older having their space so integrated into the public areas of the house will be pretty cool. Most floorplans would have made this a fourth bedroom but I love that he had such vision. Separate so they could have their own space, but open enough that it could be monitored. ![]() The builder told us he’d envisioned this space to be a teen hang-out area. Not bad… definitely something to work from. Here is the first iteration of that strange space: When we first moved in, we were a little at a loss for what to do with it. It would be considered a landing except for the fact that it is 12′ x 14′ (the size of a comfortably proportioned living room). We have this weird room at the top of our stairs. We borrow and move things from room to room as we purpose, then repurpose what each space will be. So yeah, this house is constantly in flux. Behind the girls is the before of our new and vastly improved loungey library. ![]() This house has come sooooo far in just one year. This is slightly exaggerated, but not by much. We basically had folding chairs, a picnic table, and the couch we kept from our last home. Some of which we’d already had and could have used :-/ But we decided to take the opportunity to really design this house thoughtfully: make it exactly what we wanted and to our current taste even if it meant living without for a bit. The kick in the pants though is that it’s BIGGER than our old house. That summer was a mad scramble to find a different forever home and it turns out, this is the home we were meant to find all along. ![]()
