One of our favorite design blogs received a beautiful facelift today and launched under their own domain and can now be found at decor8blog.com. Holly Becker's website is a standout among design blogs and the mainstream media has taken notice with her recent appointment as editor of Simply Stated for Real Simple.
We've stumbled across a new houseblog called Door Sixteen and we're impressed with their bathroom remodel and choice of tile (multi-colored marble hexagon).
This D*mn House brings us some DIY humor with this parody video from Weird Al Yankovic based on the theme song from "Friends". The lyrics are after the jump.
The New York Times turned us onto Transmaterial, which is a green building website that focuses on innovative materials and green alternatives to traditional materials.
For those of you with eclectic tastes and prefer to decorate by feel and emotion rather than architectural style I suggest checking out the websites of Erin Olson that focus strictly on color regardless of house style or room type. Our favorite is the House of Turquoise, which is a color we may not personally choose but talented designers make rooms look spectacular with.
PostSecret, the popular blog that is an ongoing community art project where people mail in their secrets anonymously on one side of a postcard, has a user who believes her husband loves Norm Abram more than her.
