Oops... Downtown LA, not LA downtown.

anyway, I would say that this house is 70% done. We still need more furnitures, kitchen stuff, etc etc.

Do your parents know that tile backsplashes are out of style?

Nice place anyway.

It's funny because I haven't lived with my parents for past 4-5years due to college but when I graduate from U I will be move in back with them.

I will be saving crap load of money so I don't mind moving in with my parents.

Much better! I like the views.

The color of your kitchen cabinets looks about identical to what my parents just put in.

yeah...everyone tells me that I got the best room in the house. I remember looking at the "show your kitchen" thread and wanted our kitchen to look like yours, guess turned out to be very similar?

I was in hurry to take those pictures so I left out few places, like master bathroom, guest room, and obviously garage. I actually live up in Seattle so there is no point of talking about storing my tsx in there. I will be moving down this summer, but most likely selling my tsx before moving down to cali.

Thanks! yeah, all I can say is that it wasn't cheap.

SVT was referencing this thread in which we were all informed by a "professional" that tile backsplashes are SO 2004. But I still like em.

I was gonna say, I like the backsplash. I'm not crazy for it on the fireplace but I love it all. Is that a special mount for the TV or does the TV have a clear outer edge?

I think that's a Bose surround system because my friend has those speakers and mounts. Am I right?

Both. We did hired guys to mount that TV up on the wall and it's our Sony Xbr5 tv that has clear outer edge.

Yes. Overrated Bose that everyone was bashing on my other thread.
