I love the inside, but I drool for the exterior. The green garage door is a perfect balance to the landscape against the white.

Oh gosh, I want it all now. Loving the interior but especially the modern exterior! Awesome!

I really like the green and grey color choices in the interior but I’m disappointed in the poorly shopped exterior. There are quite a few repeating patterns in that hedge… so it leaves me wondering what it really looks like.

The exterior landscaping has been pretty heavily tweaked in Photoshop. I’m curious to know what it really looks like.

beautiful modern house!!! and even though the interiors are of really good taste and harmonious, i felt them a little too “photographic”, and rather artificial… maybe because of the usual peeks, so homely like and spontaneous…

but wondeful entrance to a house!

Kinda of a tangent question, but can anyone identify the round yellow flowers/plants in the vase in the first picture? I got them once for my apartment and loved them but can’t recall the name!

I love this exterior shot.

What a beautiful house! I love that green garage door!

May 28th, 2009 - 4:04 pm

Anybody have a clue where the bathroom cabinets/sink came from?

Cindy said:

Wow! I am in awe – what a fantastic designer – so inspirational, so sophisticated and livable. I love all the colors.

I just love when people who own these Eiklerish houses really know how to paint and landscape them to make them work! There’s a tract of these homes in northern california where the homeowners don’t understand the design and “updated” them to reflect other types of architecture and the results are really sad.

Love the color of the garage door, it’s a nice solution to the typical ugliness that garage doors create. But I see the photoshopping in that image too and it makes me question the validity of the rest of the house.

May 29th, 2009 - 2:36 pm

Ok, first I fess up: I did some (obviously lousy, since so many picked up on it) photoshop tweaks to the hedge on the exterior, cuz the darn thing just refuses to fill in and looks really scraggly–otherwise, everything else is for real.

2nd, Thank You! for all the lovely comments!

And to answer the questions above: the flowers are called Billy balls; nightstands are vintage from a thriftshop and were lacquered white; headboard I designed and made myself; bathroom cabinets are custom made to my design; bathroom sinks are Purist series by Kohler

And thanks again–you guys made my day!

oh, and the bedspread came from Williams-Sonoma Home

what a beautiful home! also wondering where the lamps in the bedroom are from and the white tufted armchair in the second photo?

May 29th, 2009 - 8:50 pm

lamps in bedroom came from CB2 (switched out the shades); the white tufted chair is a vintage Milo Baughman–similar ones are pretty easy to find on ebay

the bedroom looks hotel chic and those bathroom sinks are exactly what i want. Love the look!

I cruise these pages and although there are many beautiful homes, I rarely feel the need to write anything.
But this is a dream home! Thanks for sharing.

Beautiful. All of it. I truly hope to find a house EXACTLY like this when I move to LA next year. Having the budget to make it look like this will be another story.
