freaking cool

these images are from the magazine, Old House Journal. someone brings magazines into work and leaves them in the copier area near me. I love old houses, so I grabbed this one when it showed up.


this house took about a decade to build, so the architect and builder, Earl Young, built a playhouse (with a working fireplace) on the grounds for his children to play in while he worked on the big house. he must have been so cool.


check out the curvy roof on this character (called the half house).


and this fireplace? please!!!! I want that in my bedroom.

these inspirational houses are located in Charlevoix, Michigan.

I want to build a house.
