Busy busy busy...

Our apologies for the radio silence as we have been overwhelmed with work (a very good problem to have!); although we probably can't quite compare our busy schedule to the daily agenda at this full house. Take a look at this cleverly designed home to three boys and their creative parents in Seattle featured on Sunset.com; it oozes realized potential in a small space. There is definitely something to say about living "small" these days!

This is definitely not a hands-off/special occasion only dining room. Notice the brightly colored & well designed high chair pushed up to the table just like the rest of the chairs & the salvaged wood dining table (from an old bowling lane) & the former school house chalk board.

This is the first "one bathroom" house we wouldn't mind sharing with a bunch of kiddos. The splash of color is spot on: playful enough for children & sophisticated enough for adults and guests.

An area off the kitchen was transformed into a makeshift mud room with buckets, bins & bleachers?? Yes, that's right - the shelves & bench are salvaged bleacher rows.

Speaking of mud rooms, stay tuned for our update on the Architectural Digest Home Show in NYC and the item we discovered that gives you the mud room of your dreams without remodeling!
