I asked for, and received, the "green bean lamp" from my grandparents' house. It is a table lamp base made of a wrought iron in the shape of a green bean vine, complete with beans. I don't have anywhere to put it right now though unfortunately.

Possibly my least favorite staircase ever, as I have a mild phobia of transparent floors and hate stairs without risers. I can go up it, but have to take the elevator down.)

Pigsfeet on Rye posted:Another McMansion, complete with rural industrial decor in places, what appears to be laminate all over (though I could be wrong) and more! I don't know about y'all but when I go to the lake I like to stay in a kinda lovely cabin for that genuine rustic charm (also I will be outside a lot of the time so who cares).   The top is the way it was when I was last there, but they seem to have redecorated.  If you need me I will be lounging on the dock.

I love Arts and Crafts/Craftsman bungalows.    This one is personal. I've posted it in this thread before, but my grandparents' old house. All different patterns and antiques and old materials and new materials. When I buy a house I am 100% painting a room in that peachy/pumpkiny color. It got sold in 2012 after they passed away and I miss it a lot.

Platystemon posted:Just once I want to see a home listing with something other than a baby grand piano. When I was little I had a neighbor who had a harpsichord. I wasn't supposed to touch it but I did anyway. She also had a real human skull in her office. The top was sawn off and it had little gold hinges and a little gold latch so you could open it up and look inside. (She was an ENT so it wasn't that weird that she had anatomical stuff, but still...) It had crooked teeth and I was scared of it.

Mr. Mambold posted:I think Wright was an architect, if not exclusively. But on that, I'd reckon yeah. I toured a Usonian Wright house and he designed most of the furniture in it. He also required the homeowners to consult him on things like curtains to make sure they agreed with his vision. God, can you imagine?

Mr. Mambold posted:No, quite the opposite. You build it with hexagonals and pentagonal frameworks. Like a soccer ball. That was a Mother Earth special back in the day. I had a friend who tried to build one making a bamboo frame that he would then drape burlap over and coat that with gunnite. But, he could never find quality bamboo, so it withered. This house in my neighborhood has had an extremely janky geodesic shed for years. I wish I had a better picture of it. It has repurposed doors and windows, and is sheathed in some kind of silvery sheeting. I'd love to know what it looked like inside.

 I went to a movie theater today that had this glorious custom carpeting (got this image from a yelp review bc I didn't take a picture). I believe it's based on the delightful sign at their previous location (RIP) with some added comedy/tragedy masks and an Oscar.

Youth Decay posted:I'm gonna interrupt Groverroom chat to ask what kind of countertop this is? It looks cool as hell Kitchen...rug? At least you could replace it if you dumped a pot of chili on it, unlike kitchen carpet. I am currently very into worn old oriental rugs. I got a little one, 4x6 maybe, at the Goodwill bins for $5. It was covered in dog hair but surprisingly did not have any stains or smell like urine.

Back in mid-July when we were posting rooms we liked, someone posted an Arts and Crafts/20s room with wood paneling and above that, handpainted landscape wallpaper. I looked back but couldn't find it. There's some broken images. Does anyone have that?

Be sure not to eat anything, because otherwise you'll be stuck in the Faerie Realm, and you don't really want that on a first date.

I got rid of several pairs of jeans because of how unflattering they were.

I love those time capsule houses. I'm always disappointed when a house has some vintage charm and the remodelers rip out ALL of it for some incredibly bland update.
