Flowers are generally not thought of as modern or particularly cool. They're a throwback to a Victorian Era of inhibiting dicta and rules, right? Well, I love 'em, always have. It's not always easy to embrace the "girly" when writing for a forward-thinking design site. So when I drummed up the idea to do a roundup of floral rooms, I feared how it might get received. Evidently rightly so. "There are few things that I hate more than floral print and/or ruffles," wrote a commenter on yesterday's shower curtain roundup. Yikes.
And then I searched our archives. How wrong was my perception. These flowers have serious power, y'all. The use of this classic motif here is fresh and free. One room even belongs to a sole boy, who, yes, has forward-thinking parents. Flowers in children's rooms are modern again.
Enjoy.

We already know renting with pets adds time, money, and stress to the life of a San Francisco tenant. But did we know that pet friendly rentals on Craigslist are great for decompression? Alternately hilarious, ridiculous, and occasionally quite comforting, these ads offer hours of fun for you and your pets. We’ve picked a few for your enjoyment and organized them as follows:
Yes, the rent ($13,250) makes you gag, but then you see the place, and you start salivating. It’s disconcerting, we know, but our advice: Divide up the each bedroom, rent out part of the living room, do whatever it takes with as many roommates as needed to dial this in. You get not only the historic Georgian Revival General’s house (So you can say, with complete honesty, “We live in the General’s House. Come over for a party!”), you get 4 levels of it, 7 bedrooms of it, 4.5 baths of it. And you get the Presidio. Your pets strongly approve.
