[quote=Anonymous]No one wants an 'urban' DC design house, freak. There's nothing aspirational about living in an 'interesting neighbourhood' -the ghetto (but in a walkable area, on a metro stop). Each room is definitely at the mercy of its designer, who may select stodgier prints that will appeal to current older clients, or may select more interesting newer trends, while also staying classic. Either way, designers do work together to be aware of what others are doing in nearby areas so rooms don't clash. Follow the designers year to year and you'll probably notice which ones you like and which you don't. "it's a freaking McMansion in a fairly isolated spot with limited appeal for today's urban-minded District woman"... spoken by an absolutely delusional have-not. But as you point out, by the time you can afford a home like this, your current, cutting edge 'urban' aesthetic will be the mothball-scented la-z-boy recliner of tomorrow. [/quote]
