House 2:   I'm a big fan of rooms that aren't rectangles  Loved this little foyer on the second floor.  Like the color scheme. |

House 3:   This painting was awesome, and it reminded me of Inception.  I love window seats.  And I thought the patio was nice. |

House 4:   I like the study desk in the little window alcove.   Pretty sweet media room upstairs.  Pretty countertop.   Normally I dislike over the top decorations, but I loved this little nook off the dining room.  Study off the master bedroom.  And the retarded design winner. A door off the master bedroom that not only looks out onto the back porch, but also into the living room window. |

House 5:   This was one of the better offices I thought. I hate people coming up behind me while I'm working, and this one featured a sliding door (where I'm standing) that didn't have window in it.  Yay for wasting space! |

House 6:   Another cute little upstairs foyer, obviously for a pair of little girls.  Even though the room setup was kind of wonky, I liked the living room. |

House 7   Sweet media room in the basement. I love media rooms.  Not a bad looking living room/kitchen.  Better look at the living room.   Nice screened in porch.  By far my favorite master bedroom.  Possibly the most impractical piece of furniture ever...and I want one.   Just a well designed master bathroom. Note the subtle branding on the mirror.

House 8 (Last House:   Finished basement that was way the hell too fancy and should be a media room.  Closet/changing room off of the master bath off of the master bedroom. Are you thinking what I'm thinking? Sweet BDSM dungeon!  Reading Room, loved the chairs and curtains.  Desk in a tiny little pantry off the kitchen.  Fancy  Living room kitty corner too...  This little alcove  Weird chair I wouldn't mind lighting on fire.  Nice room, foofy furniture. Is that stuff made to be sat on?  Loved the color scheme of the house. I should mention that every wall in every room was handpainted, even though it looks like wallpaper. |

I love going to things like this. Last summer I went to housing tour downtown where it was all fancy lofts and condos... And this year there was a tour of a bunch of historical mansions in the city but I missed it. |

Yeah, I've been on this every year since 2004 or 05 I think. I always like the field trips to historical houses we took in elementary school. The Alex Bay boat tour is pretty awesome, with a guided tour of Singer Castle and unguided tour of Boldt Castle. (Great opportunity to find an empty room to make out with your girlfriend). |

I am disappoint. I'll take an old house in a city's artsy neighborhood any day. Buffalo should do a parade of homes through Elmwood Village. |
