All the houses were pretty much the same, but even then they seemed weird to me since my parents had already replaced them. seems like this house was probably untouched for eons, and the designer figured it was cool to leave them. I think not.<BR/><BR/>Take out the palm trees and the sloping site and this could be any of these Long Island houses that have been "renovated" after about 30 years. As someone else said, ditch the roof and make this place totally modern.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7179311615101890268.post-8716871100615075322009-01-19T18:05:00.000-08:002009-01-19T18:05:00.000-08:00Darlings... such negatives written today.

Draper and Wearstler both have a "more is more" philsophy, and none of that is at play here except maybe in the bathroom. Also there is a lot of mid century modern thrown in there as well, and the house does not have a coherent look.
