inside the house

Thank you all your sweet sweet comments about the house! It's so good to feel that somebody out there gets me :) The house is painted a light pink/salmon on the outside and a dark aubergine color on the inside. On the inside there is also two small fold-out shelves and two lamps and the house is placed so you can see the tv both from the bed and from the sofa :) I changed the back pillow since i took these photos so I will have to show it later, but the house is a really comfortable place to watch a movie from. The house is placed a little askew in the room so it would not block the view when you look into the living room from the kitchen. Also it makes it feel less like a big cube shoved in a corner -its big, it takes up space and there is no reason to deny that. I made it out of cheap materials: laths and masonite. In the next post I will show you the sofa I build for our new "living room"

Mette, I just love your house :) I told friends about it today, as they told me about the new Muji store in Tokyo which apparently has a house (I guess a bit bigger:) in the store...it is such a great idea, can't wait to see the couch

I think that only the shape of house in any place looks fantastic, but a real house thats even more FANTASTIC!

That is just the best idea, ever. I love the color you choose, too. That's like my childhood dream of having a tree-fort come true!
