I came across this house tour on Design Sponge a while ago and loved it. The homeowner, Ashley and Sahid did all the extensive DIY work to remodel this 1910 house themselves, and has made it into a place that is home for their family and also a gathering place for their community.
There's several things I appreciate about how they made their home (that sunporch!) and especially how they encourage creativity in their kids, but my favorite thing is their philosophy of making sure their home actually work for them. Ashley says: "We decided, after trial and error, to live in the space before we decorated it or started any type of remodel process. We need to get a feel of the purpose of the room, the energy of the space and what functionality it can bring to our family. I never feel obligated to keep something where it’s at if it doesn’t feel right just because I screwed a hole in the plaster to put it there.” You can see more of their before and after photos here!
