These houses in Dallas are the types of houses that I like. However, every city has a large section of 1950's houses because most of our American cities are so young.

Design Style
What is your design style? When it comes to home interiors, I love modern. I like the sleekness, the clean lines, the no frills aspect of modern. The more pared down, the more it appeals to me. I love for window coverings to be as simple as possible. I do not like a luxuriously draped window. Fabric hanging about that can catch dust does not appeal to me. I am similar when it comes to clothing. I do not like ruffles, lace or embellishments. I do not like for my clothing to have a lot of needless fabric. I like for it to be sleek. If I was going to buy another house which I am not sure I ever will again, I would get a mid century modern house. I love the lines of those even if they are a simple ranch design. Even galley kitchens appeal to me. I like straight, clean lines. Someday when I move, I doubt I will buy. I am kind of tired being tied to the money pit. I want to be able to leave something easily when I grow bored with it but all that remains to be seen for the time being. We will see what feels right when the time comes.

Be safe. Be happy!

I like simple, clean lines, too, but I prefer older furniture that has history to it. I like the stuff around my home to have personal meaning to me, not be just aesthetically pleasing. For example, I have a bunch of letters my husband wrote to me when I was in college and I tied them with a ribbon and have them displayed. And, Gary has a scale model of a Stearman biplane that he made twenty years ago and we have that in the living room. A designer would not approve but I don't care. Those things are part of our lives and deserve a place of honor.
I absolutely agree, Linda. My mom gave me a painting she bought when she first got married. That is my most prized possession even though I am sure it is worthless to anyone except my family. It will always have a place of honor as long as anyone lives that knows the story of it.
