ideal house characteristics!

a little more than emie, a little less than victoria,

-hardwood floors.
-tile in the kitchen and bathroom, NO LINOLEUM!
-a big open kitchen, with granite countertops and an island.
-big windows, with lots of natural light.
-a heated pool, preferably big enough to do laps, with a diving board.
-ridiculously low maintenance front and back yards (or a really good gardener).
-good A/C and heat.
-i would love to have two double helix staircases, but it probably won't happen!
-rounded wall corners (like my aunt's house in vancouver).
-bathrooms that have quarantined toilets (exception of powder room-esque bathrooms).
-a library-like area, or lots of good shelving, with cushy seats.
-really gorgeous sinks.
-clever, function-with-form storage everywhere.
-a deck for barbequing and chilling outside.
-a nice room for guests. :)


and something i found the other day that was supremely interesting, and that i'm definitely envious of, which fits perfectly with this post. gotta love david ling, in manhattan, no less! what? your house doesn't come with a built-in waterfall, bridge, and moat? tsk tsk.
