First of all, I have to thank DC reader Elizabeth for reminding me about M. Design Interiors last week. You know, M. Design, the design firm that brought us the potty that launched a thousand blog posts:
Yes, you know this room, it lives in this house:
On any other day of my life I would move into this house before you could say flexible interest rate, but today, well, today another one of their interiors is catching my eye. It’s an odd choice for me, given my affinity for 70s porn inspired homes, but I think this nesting business has gotten the best of me because today I want to live behind these doors:
Not wanting to change a thing about the landscaping around this cozy cottage. Yes I know bamboo is invasive. Zip it.
Look what awaits me inside! I could sit the hell out of those leather chairs. Erin can sit in one too, we will then discuss what will replace that sofa. In this fantasy I’m not pregnant and I’m on my third vodka tonic, fyi.
This is where I sleep off my hangover.
Call me crazy but today this is really working for me
Sorry about the pink color block, it’s on the M. Design website and in my cottage fantasy I don’t have to use photoshop in order to write a blog post.
Ok, ok, I know the rest of America is knee deep in autumn, but it’s still 90 degrees here and this outdoor shower looks like a great place to recover from that boozy nap I took earlier in this post.
On a side note: Elizabeth also mentioned that the head designer for M. Designs is the sister of the blond on Modern Family. Hot Goss! On a side side note, one of the reasons I don’t watch that show is because I don’t buy the blond and that dude as a couple. I like both characters just fine, but I really don’t believe them together. Sorry everyone, just sayin.

never seen modern family….
is there a guest room in this cottage? hope so — my bags are packed and i’m moving in with you.
But Cam and Mitchell cancel them out! Still dying for that bathroom pendant in photo #1…
I’m with you – that’s a charming house.
I watch Modern Family solely for Eric Stonestreet who plays the larger half of the gay couple. I have the biggest crush on him.
the cottage reminds me of those at crystal cove in laguna beach, ca, where my husband + i stayed when we got engaged. not the living room, but the bedroom + bathroom is dead on! they’re totally rustic + wood paneled on all sides. the bathroom has a skylight. it’s a great getaway into another world.
Love all things Modern Family!
Hate distressed wood, though, so this cottage doesn’t work for me. I’m always up for the experience of a ‘sleeping nook’, though.
I want those brass pendants! I found one in Chicago! Sadly, I’m in SF. http://chicago.craigslist.org/chc/fuo/1976097868.html
I’m obsessed with Modern Family and M Design! Thanks for refreshing us all on that gorg bathroom. I love it when a style that is totally the opposite of what you usually go for makes your heart flutter – it’s such a sweet surprise!

Haven’t gotten into Modern Family, but that bamboo is awesome.
Scooped! I was so stoked to leave a comment with the celeb sister, but someone beat me to it.
I wish I could find a photo online, but Molly Luetkemeyer’s apartment/home was in a small space issue a while ago maybe in ED…? (Someone who has a ton of free time and all the back issues, feel free to fact-check this for me.) Anyway, I loved it. Her current digs are here (or on her site as “Laurel Canyon residence” if you’re into that sort of thing.
Her use of wallpaper makes me holla.
Fuck yeah! except for the dirty rustic bits.
ahhh yes…i have blogged about that little number in the past…the first bathroom too.
i love it. and i also share raina’s sexy passion for eric stonestreet.
big boy!!!!!!
Who makes that wallpaper? And the fabric in the kids’ bedroom?
I should know but I’m drawing a blank.
I love modern family’s blonde’s (Julie Bowen) house that was designed by M Design LA. But, yea I pretty much would live in any of the spaces she designs.
… and I spy a brass tray coffee table! Thought you didn’t like those??
Wow, what a cool and chic house! love it! towe.
pretty, pretty pretty.
