[Surprise Tuesday] Secret Hideaways

I nearly passed out when I saw pictures of Mary’s childhood bedroom on Apartment Therapy last week.

This is may be the Best. Bedroom. Ever.

I love how someone pointed out in the comments that it would be quite a chore to change the sheets on this bed.

In a cage match, who would win: Mary’s Bedroom, or the Book Igloo by Uroko House?

Tough call.

Here’s another gem of a hideaway from Apartment Therapy last week: modern treehouses by Baumraum. Did you see this one?

Love.

And here’s a funky space pod office/getaway called the Blob VB3 by Danish company dmvA:

When I was a kid, I built mainly two kinds of forts: a bed sheet over the register in the floor (when the heat was on) would produce my own little warm bubble fort to play in. I also used to take all of the boards out of our board games (of which we had many: Sorry, Stratego, Risk, the Happy Days game, Clue, etc.) and use them to build a big structure. Sure wish I had a picture of that – I spent a lot of time happily playing in my board game forts.

Did you build forts too? Have a secret hideaway of your own?

Wish you had one now?

    Those are AWESOME! I want one of each. And those forts built with a sheet over the register were awesome too, in an innocent farm kid kind of way.
