52 Weeks of Floor Plans --- Week 26!!!!

Initially, this week's design was inspired by the image below.  I loved the small living quarters, and the European feel of the space.  As I was working on the design, I came across an article about shipping containers used as the bones of homes.  Love this idea, and it conveniently would be doable with my plan below - not to mention, it is financially friendly.

I would love to buy a decent piece of land and build a ton of these as guest houses on the property!

52 Weeks of Floor Plans --- Week 21!

Week 21! I have a cozy bedroom now, and love its quaint size, so I stemmed this weeks design with the simplicity of the room.  The only change I would make to my current space would be to switch the window wall (I only sleep on my right side, so I would love it if the sunrise would be conveniently positioned to wake me in the morning.  I love this wall color and the retro couch.  And I'm a sucker for orange/ peach roses.   Source A clean color scheme with eclectic accents for the kitchen. Source This deep blue with white trim and light wood are very serene and relaxing (and there is a chevron blanket which makes me like this space even more!)  Source Chevron!

Source Small but beautiful powder room. Source

Traveling & Life

My last post for my 52 weeks of floor plans conveniently coincided with a vacation I'd been anticipating all year.  I took 10 days off work - something I rarely do!  July 2nd I went on an adventure down south to places I had never been, with people I had never met but have long connections with!  I saw amazing views along the way... Somewhere in North Carolina.... I was able to cross "The Biltmore Estate" off my bucket list & visited Asheville, NC.  And my cousin's corny joke, "It's a little small....they could have built more" We then continued to South Carolina for a family reunion on the 4th!  And finally, my favorite part of the trip, the Smokey Mountains.  (Cosby, Tennessee) We stayed at a secluded log cabin on the top of a mountain with our own private road and 35 acres with trails on the property.   I sadly saw no bears, but heard them in the woods around us in the early hours of the morning.  I spent m...

52 Weeks of Floor Plans ---Week 19!

I need to start working on fulfilling some dreams, and one is to have a cute little cafe/ bistro on the main street of a quaint little town, have a yoga studio above it, and above that my loft apartment.  But most importantly, escape on weekends to a great cottage in the woods. Source My thoughts are that if I needed to expand for sleeping arrangements, I could easily breakup the back of the house into two bedrooms.   Source Source Source Source Ideally, a place like this would be somewhere down south --- and Asheville, North Carolina has always caught my attention.  From what I can tell, there is a great downtown (hopefully I can plan a trip there next spring/summer to check it out myself.) Source I think I could put up with a view like this on weekends!
