This LA home can give us all a lesson in organic modern style
I’m obsessed with the organic modern decorating trend. You’ve more than likely noticed it popping up everywhere… Layers of white and neutral tones, natural textures like wood, fur, and woven jute, and organic accents of antlers, succulents, pottery, all blending together to create a super gorgeous and calming space. This home just took us all to Organic Modernism School…
Home tour: A retro 1950s Pennsylvania home with some punk rock thrown in
Check out Offbeat Homie Ang’s retro 1950s home in Sunbury, Pennsylvania. It’s full of awesome ’50s details (the kitchen and the front door are to die for), funky decor, and kitties!
I’m plotzing over the untouched 1955 period details in this house
Do you know what my three favorite words are when it comes to real estate? “Untouched period details.” Ungggggggg. Fellow lovers of the mid-century modern aesthetic are going to absolutely plotz when they see this 1955 time capsule home that I found in Glendale, California…
Geeky, science-themed nursery for the child of a librarian
Thanks to Offbeat Home reader Stephanie who uploaded pics to our Flickr pool of her most charmingly geeky nursery! There are unexpected science-themed touches in every part of this room — feminist scientist artwork, a lamp made of lab materials, and a chair upholstered with a double helix pattern… just to name a few things.
Let’s tour this funky LA house with the rainbow fireplace
Surprisingly there is no mention of the RAINBOW FIREPLACE in this real estate listing! If you were to ask me, I’d totally describe this place as “the LA funky house with the rainbow fireplace.” And the outside doesn’t even hold a candle to the amazingness contained within…
Whether it’s mid-century or modern, all-grey home decor is actually pretty dynamic
I’m having a love affair with grey home decor at the moment. So when I was doing my usual (and super-pointless as I am not looking to buy a home) sweep of the Los Angeles real estate market on my beloved Redfin, I was floored by the surprisingly dynamic all-grey interior design of these two homes…
Check out this 1960 AirStream turned into a house!
Lookie what I just stumbled across… this is a 1960 AirStream that has been completely remodeled into a non-mobile mobile home, and then added on to! It’s for sale right now in Seal Beach, California. Yes, there is even a freaking fireplace. Holy crap, I’m in love with this “house.” Wanna peek inside the 1960 AirStream house with me?
Pigs, dogs, and hand-drawn trees in this eclectic little house on the farm
Our family are our neighbors. There are over a hundred acres owned by my husband’s family, and we can visit each other by taking a walk through the woods or across the orchard. But everything in the house is old, outdated, or run down. We’ve spent a lot of time updating the house to fit our style and fix it up.
