Communing with Nature

I think this one is probably going to be very polarizing, but here goes...

@lolakimono Those beams feel oppressive and possibly dangerous.

Like it for a second house in the woods...but not summer sun coming in the windows. Cold draft in winter.

This is so not normally my vibe, but darned if I don't like it.

I am the least practical person ever but unless it comes with an automatic window washing system for the outside or a giant umbrella for rain, I'll pass.

Also in a bird free zone!

Love the beams, wood wall, red cabinets, sink, countertop & the view...a cozy relaxing kitchen, I'll take it. Thanks for sharing @lolakimono.

I really like it but have questions about the glass thickness, weight bearing for any snow and how would a person clean it good without walking on it? Balancing act on the outer beams or hire special equipment that would hover over and hope it wouldn't crash into or scratch -- the natural accumulation of tree detrius, bird droppings and whatever would be something to watch and plan for the next cleaning.

I'd be afraid of the tree limbs breaking the glass!

I am ready to move in. Just have enough room for my primitives and lighten up the cabinet colors.

Of course it's safe. That's what inspectors are for.

I love it. Imagine that glass covered with snow or..... you could get sunburned whipping up a batch of cookies. It could get too bright and glaring.

I also love the barn red cabinets and the layout. I love a U-shaped kitchen. So efficient with minimal walking.

Without that type of ceiling I like it.

I like it for a friend/relative when I visit. I know I would get tired of it really fast.

Absolutely not. It looks like someone started to work on it and forgot to finish.

The huge beams are cumbersome and overwhelming and they don't even match the wood of the cabinets. If I want to see the outdoors, I'll step outside.

When can I move in?
