52 Weeks of Floor Plans --- Week 18!

I'm starting to think I should have named this blog

 "Cooking & Cottages"

Especially with Week 18's design. 
With all of my recent culinary obsessions, I realized that I should consider creating a design with all of my favorite things...



*A plentiful garden to grow most of my food*
DIY: Simple Tips for Growing Your Own Vegetable Garden: Remodelista

*A chef's kitchen with a gas stove*
(gas stoves scare me - hence the reason the stove is on the wall furthest from the bedroom!)
IMKDC Winner industrial-kitchen

Barn house kitchen and dining area. Wow. I would love this.

*A renovated barn as the facade & bones of the main living space*
(I wrote my thesis on renovated barns, and love them, so I try to incorporate them into my designs whenever possible)
whoa. cute barn plus greenhouse. guess it's been converted into a house! well a guest house on a big estate.

*A library/ study*
(and to display my ceramic collection)
Dream nook for dream house

*A large picture window in the master bedroom to welcome morning light*
(with the window facing east so I can wake up to the morning light coming in)
picture window

And this list could go on and on...

Source Small but beautiful powder room. Source

52 Weeks of Floor Plans - Week 6!

Week 6! For the last few weeks I've been posting original floor plans inspired by images from Pinterest and Houzz.  This week, my plan is a collaboration of my favorite designs.   This Silo resembling entry really caught my attention, especially with the built in coat hooks and modern lighting fixture.  I especially love the planks of wood covering the walls.  Rustic and modern. Source Quick Rear Exterior Sketch  I always revisit this kitchen, but the modern/rustic look makes this my all time favorite! Source Living  - Great use of the space to add additional sleeping.  Wood beams, neutral tame color scheme. Iron railing.  Source Sleeping - Love the nook design.  The idea of the bed being placed in a space primarily for sleeping inspired me to include a similar space but to include sliding barn doors to create privacy.
