another property!

we have an appt. this saturday to see this condo that's really contemporary/modern. contemporary and modern is a lot of fun, but let's face it, sometimes it's form over function. and if we're being really honest, most of the time it's no function. i am a big fan of this.

this particular unit we're scheduled to see is very poliform-ish (http://www.poliformusa.com/). nice clean lines, lots of whites and very contemporary. while our current condo is more modern, i think our ideal home would be more along the lines of contemporary with a little bit of modern stuff. my favorite showroom is ligne roset (wells & hubbard). white background (walls) with splashes of color (rugs & furniture). this is yet another place i would move into.

so the selling agent for the place we're seeing on saturday was so funny; she was like, "i want you to know that this is a very industrial-looking home. it's very modern and contemporary, so i don't want you to be too surprised." i was like, "trust me, lady, we ARE modern and contemporary." and then she was like, "oh good, because someone else walked through and didn't understand why there wasn't any carpeting...."

i should've told her our current walls are painted bright red, our bedroom is dark purple and our master bath is bright green. trust me, nothing surprises us.
