A Gallery of Gorgeous Attic Bedrooms
I’m willing to bet that most people, no matter where they live, if asked to draw a house will draw something with a pitched roof, a little bit like this. I think there’s something about a steeply pitched roof that feels deeply comforting to us, so much so that it has become part of our very idea of home.

The #1 Most Repeated Piece of Advice From Our House Tours
Time and time again we hear our House Tour subjects tell us the same piece of “best advice” when they fill out our style survey. So what do these decor savvy folks do that they think you should do, too? We might as well let them tell you. As Brook Baker Eide concicely puts it: Even when you’ve got the shiny keys to a brand new apartment and you’re raring to go paint every wall and decorate every corner and get every little thing into place, don’t.
