I imagine the people who live in these places to be the kind of pretentious people who revel in their unconventionality and sneer at you when you tell them you listen to Journey.

Bahah, yeah that is pretty much what i think when I look at those house tours. Most of the homes he features are owned by Actor/Model/Dj's...trust fund babies.

People who listen to Journey deserve to be sneered at. I find these interiors less obnoxious than the generic catalog showplaces praised a lot here.

I agree with Jeffery. I've always worked hard for my money but whats wrong with trust fund babies? If you have the money, why not? Isn't it equally pretentious/elitist to judge someone you don't know? We are bombarded with bad news everywhere and you think you can come to a blog like this for a breath of fresh air and some constructive criticism. Sheesh, so much anger, I wonder what you are missing in your own lives.

I love all the rooms except the paint drip bathroom. I suspect people close to him would understand the motive. Love all the colors in the rest of the rooms and does offer a breath of fresh air to balance the minimalist coverage. Nice post AT.

I read your disdainful comment, heather, and found you are a complete twit.
