I'm not a fan of the look an decor of super modern homes, but I do still like the modcons.Lynnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2489168146200487747.post-52224341153011917932014-11-10T13:09:35.531+11:002014-11-10T13:09:35.531+11:00I LOVE your research, Jen.

We particularly loved the kitchens!<br />But I like the modern conveniences of a flushing toilet and running shower to ever want to live in one.... :-)Amy Andrewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12690419732247281048noreply@blogger.com
