Hired an Interior Designer

[mmbt0ne]

Clark,

Do you still live in the house with the castle turrets? Is he putting in holes for dumping hot oil?

The paint estimate does seem high, even taking into consideration that you're probably tripling the labor costs to lay out the stripes.

Clark,

I also like the floors, hate the paint stripes.

Overall, I really think the biggest impact is going to be made by just having less stuff.

I hope he does the interior designing bit better than he draws....

I agree with all the others - those paint stripes are weird. it also just seems like something that you're more likely to get 'sick of' than 'used to'.

If you have to go wall-to-wall carpeting I think berber is the only acceptable kind.

Berber is about the lowest quality carpet one can buy. I'm surprised that the carpet industry has managed to convince the public otherwise for all these years.

Gilp - no idea about the quality, I think it is the best-looking though. This doesn't really impact me because I really can't stand wall-to-wall carpeting.

I think they are pretty nice. They really do a very good job of conveying the design ideas.

Technically, they are horrible. The vanishing points don’t converge and the perspective is all off. I'm pretty sure all of these were done in only a few hours and probably gratis.

I don't like the massive TV in the room with the fireplace. It's a great room with nice furniture and it's all completely overpowered by that massive TV. It's looks like something a college kid would do. Plus you seem to already have a TV viewing area.
