Over The Top

Topsy Turvy had an amusing Idea for all of us design fiends - Once we have designed our house to perfection, why not  preserve our pride and joy, maybe commission a portrait we could hang up or have a “logo” of sorts created of our house and use it as stationary, or have it framed or whatever tickles our fancy….

They have several routes for possible realization of this Idea, and (it seems other have thought of this as a possibility as well) offer several links to people and companies offering this exact service (what will they think of next???!!!)

If I ever decided to do this, and that would only happen once I had designed my house to death several times and reached perfection (not really a possibility for obsessive people like myself), then I would probably go with this option

PVE Design’s Patricia van Essche will create a personal, charming and stylish illustration of your house, shop or interior, starting at around $250. She usually works in pen and watercolor or gouache, and will provide a quote on request - each illustration will vary in size and price. You can also see more of Patricia’s work over at the wonderful blog, Mrs. Blandings.

I like the wimsical in her work, and the possbility she gives for a bit of self humor, which in a house that is designed to death is probably a good idea.
