Ideas For: "The Guesthouse"
The overall layout of this book is based on the idea of moving from the outside in… Starting with the general ideas of what I want the exterior to look like (most likely over the garage connected to the main house, overtop the “workshop”, or as a single, smaller house), and moving inside to the main entryway/mudroom/laundry room, living space and small kitchen, working my way through the house.
Kitchen (classic white and black, cottage-feeling)
