Tina,
ReplyDeletelove all of them, however the ivy covered french "cottage" is possibly my favorite.

dream cottage, tina....
ReplyDeleteI like the ditch colonial style as a cottage here in northern michigan...
unfortunately, we haven't many of that style in the area so I'm looking at other type's which I'll be posting about....
and I haven't even touched on the place in Chicago.. all in good time, though...
but you did good this time in giving credit when using other people's resources..that's a big issue discussed at length on Design*Sponge..
but there is all manner of blogging etiquette that new bloggers learn as they go....
beautiful images...
hope you're feeling better soon...

The small French home with the gray/blue shutters would be my first choice, second would be the New England classic colonial. Going smaller appeals greatly to me after living large for half my life. Also the simplicity of the house is very appealing you just know the rooms inside has high ceilings and looks to be four-square, like that kind of floor plan.
ReplyDeleteI hope you feel better soon Tina, get plenty of rest!
xx Debra,
I must say that my favorite post is the window coverings!! I make drapes, so this was a treat for me to see. My husband says your blog is hard on his "old" eyes...the writing is too light. Just thought I'd throw that in. Your home is coming along just beautifully. THanks for sharing. Valarie
ReplyDeletejust found your blog :) thanks for all the eye candy!
ReplyDeleteWhat gorgeous houses! The island style shingle house with the black trim...if Im not mistaken that is on Kiawah Island and a client of mine brought me extensive pictures of it to use as inspiration for their new lake house.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the lovely homes! Any new progress on your home that we could see?
ReplyDeleteNice to see one of our Atlanta house. A 2009 Shutze winner by D. Stanley Dixon. More about it here: "Beautifully scaled Dutch colonial (Maureen from Electric Revisited's dream home)"
ReplyDeleteWow- beautiful homes and stunning giveaway! As for the former, my favourite is the more understated Dutch colonial (#8)- gorgeous home. And the giveaway, I'm stunned at how amazing it is!!
ReplyDeleteAnd my favourite post was the first one that you gave a tour of your new home- it's beyond amazing.
ReplyDeleteI follow Safaveih on twitter.
ReplyDeleteLove all the french homes above but would have to say either the ivy covered gem or the last one are my top two. I could easily see myself happily residing in either. Another wonderful blog....sigh, time to get back to work.
ReplyDeleteCheers
Tina - hope you feel better soon. My daughter has been home for a couple of days with some sort of little bug. So much to choose from here and many I love. As you know, I love that Dutch colonial from Maureen's blog. Also love the smaller ivy covered stone homes.
ReplyDeleteoh sigh.... so many to choose from. top favs are: the weathered shingle hamptons style home, the french style cottage covered in ivy, and the georgian style bricked townhome. i would take any of those. thankyouverymuch.
ReplyDeleteoh my goodness these homes have me drooling! I just love all the inspiration you can acquire from so many cultures! Fabulous spread!
ReplyDeleteI would happily drop my bags and move in to each of those beauties. Though...I'm really drawn to the classic colonial and Georgians!!
ReplyDeleteIn the South we fight vines. They strangle our azaleas, run up our walls and weave their way into to the attics, overnight. All that photosynthetic winding lets the water in, the wall paper starts to separate, and the walls start to peel. So, I am entirely against the vine covered houses, I can see the damage. Now, with RL's house, all those beautiful trees and shrubs right up against the front hall windows, make me think its dark. I'm on a practical streak this evening.
ReplyDeleteBest,
Liz
What a beautiful collection of homes! It is a tough decision but I will take the last home please. Thanks for the inspiring images!
ReplyDeleteTina,
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear you're under the weather. Green tea in big mug and cold fresh orange slices together will boost your immune system. Repeat a.m. and p.m. yum!
Thank you for the virtual parade of homes tour here. It's fabulous! How can you pick a favorite? The final photo of the limestone European influenced "cottage" appears to be my hearts desire at the moment. Subject to change of course.
These are all architecturally beautiful and remind me of how important learning the differences of these styles were during my architecture and landscape drafting classes years ago.
Fun tip: to learn any topic with volume like these homes is print or copy subjects (like these homes) and create flash cards and review often
everyday. Before you know it you can identify items in any subject.
This is such a treat to see these home truly they are stunning.
Bette
I absolutely love all the homes & wish I could tour each and every one of them. There are elements of each that appeal to me, but I choose the last one--the limestone cottage.
ReplyDeleteI am so glad that each of us in unique - it is so wonderful to see all the beautiful ways individuals see their home as being. It would be so boring if we all had the same house wouldn't it!! Lovely lovely photos!
ReplyDeleteWow! These are some mansions! Loving the French inspired stucco ones. I hope you feel better too. XX
ReplyDeleteLoving all of these gorgeous homes, but I'd choose the stone colonial for my primary residence, the New England clapboard for my ocean front retreat, and the weather shingled Dutch country for my country getaway...if I'm dreaming, may as well dream big!!
ReplyDeleteBack to enter this fab giveaway! My favourite posts were the Paris 1 and 11(where you shared pics from your trip)
ReplyDeleteI also follow Safavieh on Twitter.
ReplyDeleteAmazing dream homes! I loved the french style homes with ivy and the hampton style homes!
ReplyDeleteI hope you are feeling better soon! I love the Dutch colonials, the stone colonial, the French cottage, and the Georgian townhome. All are wonderful!
ReplyDeleteI love the Hamptons style homes - I'm a big fan of coastal cottages. My second favorite style is the brownstown style townhome - having spent much of the past 18 years in Chicago, I love the older row houses in the gold coast district of Chicago.
ReplyDeleteGreat homes! My favorite post was when you got back from Paris & shared details of the City of Light! I can never get too many photos. I know I took over 800 pictures on a trip to the City. (Doesn't include side trips, bien sur!) My 2nd favorite is the first one on Timothy Corrigan. I stay well by chewing a chewable Vitamin C tab once after breakfast & once after dinner. It's kept me well many a winter - knock on wood!
ReplyDeleteHi Tina, They are all gorgeous homes but I think I would choose the French style with the blue shutters. I have seen photos of the inside of this house and it is fabulous. I hope you are feeling better soon. Take care.
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Sherry
It's too hard to choose! This is my favorite post of yours because I love to look at houses and dream. By the way, I "like" Safavieh on FB and follow them on Twitter.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the amazing giveaway and for visiting my blog!
Wow! That Georgian townhome is right down the way from me, on Lafayette Square, in Savannah. I've been in it! Small world. I love your photos. I'm working on a renovation as well, although a much smaller scale. It's tough. Keep up the good work
ReplyDeleteDefinitely number one. I adore the vertical dimensions of the facade, windows and roof line. The essence of all things French.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing! Did I miss it, or have you posted the houseplan (floorplan) for your new home?
ReplyDeleteGood web site! I truly love how it is simple on my eyes and the data are well written. I am wondering how I could be notified whenever a new post has been made. I've subscribed to your RSS feed which must do the trick! Have a great day!

ReplyDeleteGreat stuff here. The information and the detail were just perfect. I think that your perspective is deep, its just well thought out and really fantastic to see someone who knows how to put these thoughts down so well. Great job on this.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing this article, its been a really great read. I've never dealt much with shingles calgary before. There is a lot about them that I don't like then when you see them on the house your shocked to see how good they look. Hopefully mine will have one of those good looks, wish me luck!
ReplyDeleteFrench houses always have the most beautiful window shades and shutters. The architecture is very beautiful. It reminds of the history of the place that's why I find it really interesting. This is what I want my house to be like in the future.
ReplyDeleteMan! These houses look really fantastic!
ReplyDeleteNice photos! Looks really good.
