Design Gurus

I love a project, and this house has afforded me with plenty of them (see the to-do list tab!). In order to work on all of our projects--and do so in the most cost-effective manner possible--I decided to create floor plans of the house using Floorplanner.com (SUCH an awesome tool!):

We printed these out and pasted them onto our idea board. Then around the floor plans, we've been adding paint samples, tile samples, pictures of furniture we want to get, and pictures of other rooms that inspire us. This will be Domicile Vereen-Davis Headquarters! That way, we know exactly what the colors, furniture and art will look like in each room before we purchase the first thing (and avoiding unnecessary trips to return things). 

It's also really important for our entire house to flow--we want all of the rooms to look like they belong together, rather than just a bunch of rooms that are haphazardly thrown together. We'll unify them through a similar color palette (we've been leaning towards khakis, creams, blues and greens) and through a general style (clean and modern with punches of color). 

We just want all of the unfun stuff (financing, home inspection, etc.) to finish so we can go to closing and get into the house. Just a few more weeks!
