As you know, I'm presently looking for a place to call home with my (recently wed) husband...our first purchase together...scary & exciting at the same time. I am drawn, always, to cosy-looking interiors...colourful, quirky, characterful...exposed brick, yes please. Alcoves...begging to be filled with much loved books...a fire place, yes please. Thank you for reminding me that the chunky dining table & chairs which holds memories for my husband (and I have already thought might not suit our new abode, even though we haven't found it yet!!) deserves a place there if he so wishes.
I love seeing how people decorate their home and kind of imagine what kind of person you might be to decorate a certain way, or thinking about how being in that room might make me feel. I feel you on renting - I've lived here 3 years and it is my home, but there are days where I don't feel fully at home because I can't change things, like the awful chipboard wallpaper that's on every wall.
Oooh, I remember that orange bedroom wall!

The "sweet spot" indeed.
