Too country for me and it’s going to be dated really fast. Love the library and range though.

There are way too many species of wood in that house. It makes me dizzy to look at. I also do find the lack of crown molding odd.

Franklin park is the absolute best of all worlds, larger lots and a great falls experience but close to dc

Sold for over $3.2M. She must be doing something right.

Her designs are all the same. Enough open kitchens without cabinets and framed botanicals.

Me too! So soo cluttered! Gah!

Too "Farmy" for me. No thanks.


I have never cared for LL designs and I also dislike the current ‘modern farmhouse’ trends.

This is going to be a no from me.

But, I also don’t have 3.2M so what do I know


Whatever Lauren

I’m trying to figure out why think your opinion matters after it’s already sold for more than list.

You do you, and let the new owners enjoy their house.

Well, at least it doesn't have a gray kitchen.

Some rich person who likes her HGTV show will buy it, then in 4 years when they get tired of it they'll hire a designer to redo it (and hopefully rip out the gray wood paneling when they do!).
.

I disagree. I think there are very obvious signs of LL’s work, but then the homeowner added their own spin once LL was done. Which was a mistake. LL definitely has her own style, that’s not everyone’s taste, but her designs are typically refined and subdued. Not... this.


I agree with this. I usually like LL's work way more than I liked this, and I thought her calling card was kind of subtle layering. Sometimes her choices are a bit off the wall for me, but I usually find her work a bit more...inspirational or something, like even if I couldn't envision LL's design in my house, I like the concept. Not so much here.

The 2-seat dining room seats though...whoever picked those, they seem insanely annoying in practice. How irritating if you're sharing with someone and they get up/push the seat back? I also hated the wall paneling and extreme farmy-ness of the stair rails, sliding barn door near entry.


I feel like this has to be it, and if I were her I would be a little ticked that my name was attached to it.

Where is there like a computer lab in the upstairs?
