Much as I love the tasteful, elegant, and restrained, my heart lies with spaces that are quirky, whimsical, and sometimes even downright weird. These 15 homes we toured in 2010 express their inhabitant's personalities — and then some. They might not be everyone's style, but from the sweet to the strange, they are all anything but boring.

These are all so wonderful. I love interesting, eclectic spaces, and these do not disappoint!
Woah, glad you revived Evan's Old-Timey apt, I didn't see that the first time around! His space is beautiful mix of historic and mystic.
You are fast becoming my favorite site. Keep up the great work.
Very balanced bedroom with matching lamps and tables and pillow cases. I also love the painted blue stripe that replaces a headboard but still has good ch'i.
I just LOL'd at the picture from room #3.
I never noticed that when his room was originally posted last month
