Double response bc i love this question! im an interior designer and I work in high-end residential which means I see the intimate parts of a lot of peopleās homes which is pretty wildā¦.
two highlights include:
1. An important 20th century painterās crazy art-filled townhouse, where they filled the powder room sink with plastic snakes
2. An extremely famous coupleās house where I saw, on the momās dresser, a copy of The Care and Keeping of You, which means their celebrity daughter is learning about puberty the same way I did š„¹

Iām not sure about the exterior - maybe an old apartment in Paris or NYC, maybe a traditional little house in coastal Italy, maybe something else entirely. Inside, to sum it up, eclectic. Furniture and decorations Iāll have gathered over the years, the best things will have a story behind them. Thereāll be books in every single room, and somewhere to actually sit and read them. While Iām at it, same goes for music, record players or a radio or an instrument in every room. Stationary and arty stuff everywhere, too, Iād like to be able to create as soon as the mood hits. Also, a really nice tv with shelves near it that will hold an extensive DVD collection - physical media everywhere! Pictures on every wall, regardless of if they have any sort of relevance to each other, just whatever I think is cool. Plates and mugs and cutlery and stuff will all be mismatched, the only common theme being āI think itās cuteā. Plants everywhere. Warm lighting, preferably mostly ambient. Plenty of blankets and cushions and rugs (all the floors will be wood or tile, no carpet). Some sort of cool feature, like a balcony, or maybe a window seat. Oh my god, the things Iād do to have a balcony!! Completely maximalist, but in a balanced way - cozy, not overwhelming. Nice windows, also. The vibe is teenage girl meets chic grandma, but also the kind of thing my friends would see and say āomg thatās SO you!!ā

Okay rapid fire highlights of the 8 houses from my first 18 years (idrk how that happened lol)
1) The bay windows I put my stuffed animals on as a display
2) the scary geese standing between me and the community playground every day
3) My princess canopy that I tried to swing on and tore down & the walls of the playroom that I painted so thickly that they could never get the stain out
4) My under the staircase harry potter inspired āsecretā hide out
5) The creek out back & the carpeted staircase with my fav carpet material
Thatās all the nostalgia I got left

Stop thinking about germs so much. Touch the subway pole. Touch your mouth after (by accident). Boost your immune system. Live forever.
