My Living Room
My Living Room After long and hectic days, all I really want is to be home. Once I walk through my front door a sense of relaxation takes over me. My home is one of the only places that can almost immediately calm me down at any time. My home contains many rooms, and they all serve as peaceful sanctuaries for me but my living room is my favorite and needs to be described to believe.
My living room is a spacious seventeen by twenty-five foot room. It feels like fall all year round with its warm hues. My living room is a room with three and a half walls, which are painted a warm mustard yellow, giving a cozy feel. On one wall, there is a medium sized leather couch, and above it, is an iron rod frame. On the side of the leather couch is a dark wooden end table containing precious family photos, a scented candle, and a rod iron lamp with a pig hide shade. The wall to the right is similar; up against it is another leather couch. Instead of a rod iron frame on the wall, there are two windows that bring light to the room. The windows have deep olive green colored curtains on each side of the window as well as wooden blinds. The light from the windows feels as if the sun is standing right outside. In the middle of the two windows is my basic ivory colored front door.
Across from the front door is another wooden end table against the half wall. On the end table is another lamp, a wooden bowl for keys, a fabric flower arrangement, and other rod iron décor. Above the end table is an antique looking mirror, which reflects the sunlight from the windows beautifully. The wall to the left of the half wall is one of the main focus points because of the armoire against it. It’s a wooden armoire that has a dark brown metal masterpiece on each door. The design on the doors looks as if it were designed my hand. It consists of a scenery of beautiful deer roaming and grazing in the woods near a river. On the top of the armoire lays my dad’s cherished deer horns, adding onto the

    When I pushed asides the front curtain and walked in I immediately felt at peace. From where I was standing in the doorframe I could see into all the rooms. The home was arranged in the shape of a Y, a central hub connected my bedroom and my writing room. It was a strange layout for a home, but I found it to be very comfortable. Always being right next to everything.…

    Around each rectangular panel are bands of opalescent cabochons set like jewels in mounts. At the top and base of each window, blue and mottled white panels appear like clouds against the sky. The precision and regularity of these panels and cabochons present a marvelous foil for the brilliant, jewel-like tones of the central panels which explode in a burst of rich colors. Except the frame there are five main pieces of glass, each piece is mad up by many small pieces. The grass on the bottom right is Fluorescent green which have strong contrast with the the blue and pink flowers. The large pieces that make up the ground and sky are green and brown. Each piece has it’s unique colors. Even in one pice the color changed from top to bottom. Looking infant of it the hollyhock window with its large Bowers appears somber and dark, hinting that evening shadows lurk beyond the glassy surface. Those background let the white and red shins gracefully and quietly. Compare to the the peony window with its molded pink and white opalescent blooms and flowering tree which is spacious and full of movement and activity, the hollyhocks is beautiful in it’s own way, tranquil and peaceful. Like the fairy under the moon. As an image, it’s pleasure to look at. I believe that people who went to…

    Inside, the living room is exquisite with fully restored oak floors, and bay windows. He shows me around the two bedrooms and marbled tiled bathrooms. We end up in the kitchen where I’m swept away with melancholy. This is the house we once envisioned one day for ourselves. Only, at the time, we were flat broke. I tease, “Did you rob a bank or what?”…

    There is no place like mi casa. After a long day of school or a tiring session of work, the one place I can surely count on is home. Deep in the outskirts of Miami Gardens, this relaxing getaway destination awaits. While not the fanciest nor extravagant, my house is a convenient three bedroom apartment in the residency of Walden Pond. The building is beige with firebrick red stairs and a faded grey roof. The stairs are firm, and have rust stains due to weathering. Walking into the apartment, the aroma of Glade air freshener greets you before the people do. The walls are an orange-brown color, and immediately upon entry there are plaques and awards for my siblings showing their accomplishments in school. A glass table with flowery boutique sits…

    It’s the table, where you sat with your parents, cracking algebraic code and discussing theology. It’s the pillow that soaked-up tears from broken friendships and silenced 3AM laughter. It’s the metal griddle, where you learned about your great grandparents while making traditional Norwegian food. A house is more than just a building, but a place filled with memories, a place that…

    Located at 205 South 16th Street stands a house different from most. Its brick is layed in an orthodox pattern and its windows are long and narrow. The slender columns around the front porch suggest a Queen Ann style of house, but its curved roofing and widows walk make it more of a vernacular type of home. The house has multiple embellishments which also suggest that it could be a Queen Ann type of building because Queen Ann style homes have numerous amounts of detail and small, slender columns. For instance, this particular home has detailing on the crowning above the windows. Above the windows and front door is a structure that is painted yellow and has several details carved into it to make it look similar to the edge of lace. This draws attention to the…

    Sullivan, Zero from Nightmare Before Christmas, Stitch from Lilo and Stitch, Mushu and Cricket from Mulan, and Au Naturel from the Minion Movie). Next to my window is my collage of pictures. I have 3 short silver wires and each holds 4 bright pictures; below those, I have a wood frame that has a picture of me and my childhood friends; and my last picture on that wall is my "Alice Down the Rabbit Hole", it is another and different interpretation of the story. Now on to my right wall, this wall is a little different than the rest. My twin sized bed is on the floor right up against the wall, but the wall itself slants inward, right over my bed. My blanket on my bed is an orange quilt that has an old purple floral design on it. It has a retro look. At the foot of my bed, is a short, white foot dresser that my great-grandfather built my mother. On that is where my black Dell computer and my white Google Chrome charge (those lay side by side), next to those is where I keep my large and colorful Biology binder. On top of that stands my Pocket People that I got when I traveled to New…

    A large bay window peeked into the fresh lawn outside and right in the middle of it sat an immense lime beanbag. I would slump easily into it, after a never-ending day of impossible math, to read contently. Of course, the book came from one of the two towering walnut bookcases, glimmering reddish in the irregular rays of sunlight. The room nearly flew to the sky giving the image of an ancient roman cathedral with vaulted ceilings. To the left of the beanbag nook, the king, feather-filled bed protruded like a needle perpendicular to the beige wall. The soft mattress was caringly wrapped in teal and lavender floral sheets. Across the room from the bed, and next to the book shelves, a small but neatly-kept L-desk waited to be used when homework time started. My overly used laptop and practically ancient printer sat on the desk, quietly keeping each other company. The last of the four large walls in my rectangular room held the door to the rest of the house in one corner. My matching walnut armoire occupied the middle of this wall, silently watching and looming over me like a protective giant. On the wall on top of the armoire, my much-appreciated flat screen TV took its place like a prince taking his thrown to become king. This meant there was still an enormous space in the middle of the room. What would I put there? A square, orange and fuzzy rug sheathed the naked oak floor. An eclectic couch made of a mosaic sprinkling of quilts sat on top. Yes that would be the finishing touch……

    It had beautiful, old ironwork surrounding the verandah, and dark green paint on the doors (Campbell). We toured the house jumping at every random sound because we were afraid of ghosts. The décor of the home was exquisitely decorated in the time period of the house (Campbell). When we finished our self-guided tour we walked out to stand on the verandah and admire the view. It was dark outside and nobody was in the home so we decided to spend the night here. We found two beds and quickly fell asleep.…

    Behind the couch and out of view is where the kitchen is. It's small and cozy with two stars leading up to it. An island is in the very center, with marble table tops and various kitchen intensional strewn about.

    Walking into my special room, one would notice in a corner a large brown square dog bed with puppy prints all over it. Next to the bed there is a brown rectangular wooden basket that contains all sorts of chew toys for a dog. From this section, a stranger would know that we have a large sized dog that is spoiled with tons of treats and toys to play with. The majority of the room is taken up by a tan microfiber couch, loveseat, and recliner. Each piece of furniture has a throw pillow and blanket on it. From this one might assume that in this house people enjoy relaxing on the couches and may even take a nap with a pillow and a blanket. The recliner has more spills and the color of the couch has faded. From this one may gather that the recliner is the favorite chair in the house. On one large low to the ground circle end table, there is a decoration that says “family.” Around this decoration is a bunch of different picture frames holding different pictures that include older people to young children. In the middle of the pictures is the biggest silver picture frame. In this frame, there is a young girl kissing a young male. From this a stranger could get the idea that family is important to this young couple that is in love and hope to have children one day. On another end table, there is a fake orange pumpkin with a purple hat that lights up. Next to the pumpkin is an old witch with a wart on her nose and her legs hang off the table. From this, one may assume that whoever lives here enjoys the holidays. On one wall, there is a flat screen TV. Underneath the TV, there are piles of movies that range from sports movies such as “Throwback” to children movies such as “Shrek.” From this one can assume that the owners of this house enjoy watching a variety of movies. The last end table is where one would find a pile of 6 textbooks- 2 education, 1 film study, 1 accounting, and 1 managerial book. At the sight of seeing all of these…
