Did you see the October 2008 issue of Domino magazine? It featured the home of J. Crew’s creative director Jenna Lyons. We’ve been seeing a lot of black-painted rooms this year (even “Design Star” and “Top Design” contestants jumped on board that trend), but she took it to a whole new level, [...]
This breakfast nook was in one of the Homearama houses that you didn’t see during our tour a few weeks ago, but I wanted to show you this breakfast nook. Look at all those light fixtures they hung over this relatively small table. I’ve never seen anyone do that before, have you?

Christina Aguilera has won five Grammy awards and sold over 37 million records worldwide, but she’s a mom now, too. The pop songstress and husband Jordan Bratman welcomed Max Liron into their family on January 12.

I don’t know. I was staring at this picture and pondering [...]

For the next Open House series I’m showing you some amazing properties on the market in Birmingham, [...]
On the HGTV show Kitchen Trends they featured this newly remodeled kitchen in a segment called “Pretty in Pink.” I thought it would be perfect to kick off a new feature here at Hooked on Houses that we’ll call (drumroll) Hooked or Hate It?
In this game, we’ll look at rooms and vote that we’re either [...]
