jidoo would be proud, your house looks like a modern day version of the la loma museum... couple comments... i cant believe you found that amazing statue in auntie fatins closet, thats awesome. also, the cat toiletbrush seems like its too much, but its not, its really cute and funny... also, if you upholster the red velvet chairs, that would be the single biggest mistake you ever made in that house, if it was possible to give that room more character than it already has, then those chairs have done it. another thing, are those real starck chairs? looks like alex has been paying his dues to go motorcycling every week haha.

haha...you're funny, chrissy. i never thought of it looking like la loma...i'm even happier now! the cat toilet brush thing is hilarious and i love it because where else do you put a nasty toilet brush? the chairs attract cat hair like no other...and i think something yellow would look cool in that room. but i know what you mean. and yes, those are real starck chairs..that's why we only have 2. haha! and by the way, alex is the design snob of the house, not me! we also want the acrylic louis chairs.
