Quiz: What's your interior design style?

Click on the pictures in this design quiz at Stylish Home to determine your decorating style. Brace yourself— the quiz promises to "delve into your design soul." The quiz "suspected" me to be Modern Eclectic, which apparently makes me soulmates with Andy Warhol, Scarlett Johannson, and Philip Seymour Hoffman. Okay.

  5. Broken, yup. Your bzillion readers must've overloaded it. I was partway through, got a phone call, and then couldn't finish it when I came back. Oh, well... I don't have much "style", anyway. ;)

    "Cozy… not oversized - a hand crafted gem. To cook a grand meal in an elegant kitchen is your joy. A button down bedroom belies it's comfort. Your decorative canvas stretches to the property lines. A sense of rolling hills and vineyards surround this table. The graceful ceremony of sharing. Natural and neutral… save the color for your art. Wild and crazy days in your wonderful home."

    So "me", right Jess? HAHAHA!

  19. Seaside Informal.

    When I look around, though, it's more early thrift store meets not enough storage room, which is what happens when your mother moves in with her entire household contents.

    Suspected "Warehouse Chic"

    I definitely went for warm, cozy pictures. Interesting since turquoise is by far my favorite color, and it's very cool. I wonder if my choices would have been different if it hadn't been -3 degrees when I got up this morning...

  33. I got "Antiquated Espresso," which I love just for the name. Basically, I think it means I'm super pretentious and love to call people "dahling."

  41. I was an "unmade bed", I think that is polite for mixing styles, thats true - but I like to make my bed!
    By the way Bob Dylan is an unmade bed, too.

    ReplyDelete
  42. fun test to do...though it's a shame there are no picture to illustrate the kind of house style we are.

    ReplyDelete
  43. Form and function! Sounds right to me. And I guess I'm in good company with Alfred Hitchcock, Bill Gates and Martha Graham.

    ReplyDelete
  44. I swore I wasn't going to waste time with these this weekend - but I'm glad I did. I got my first big laugh of the day!

    I'm an "Unmade Bed" (too true) - just like Woody Allen, Bob Dylan and...wait for it....Tina Fey!

  45. Antiquated Espresso

    Tom Waits
    Katherine Hepburn
    Humphrey Bogart...

    The way they describe it is actually pretty close to how I would describe my design sense. You know, since "heading for an episode of Hoarders" isn't a choice.

    ReplyDelete
  46. Wealth and Brains... Oprah, Michelle Obama...
    Yes, total logic here.. they have the wealth, I have some brains... explains all the years on my psychiatrist sofa.. I have the taste for the quality, tasteful life, and the budget of a pigeon.

    ***I have not spent my life on a psychiatrist sofa *** (my psychiatrist has a lawn chair)

  47. I'm an "Antiquated Espresso"? I have always secretly wanted to be Bogart though ;)

  48. Willy Nelson? Tina Fey? Psychiatrists with lawn chairs? I'm greatly enjoying your comments, people.

  49. I'm a Modern Eclectic but I like the sound of an "Unpretentious Bon Vivant".
    And what do I have to do to be a "Bucolic Artisan"?

  50. Clare, I believe you'll need to move to a pasture among a herd of sheep and begin weaving baskets.

    ReplyDelete
  51. I picked up seaside informal, no surprise there... whitewash + open windows + exposed beams = pretty much yes.

    I don't make my bed though. Encourages bedbugs! Also: time consuming. Also: I like the way it looks better unmade.

    My mother is constantly horrified by this. I think she thought that when I graduated to adulthood I'd start tucking the blankets in. Nope.

  52. I ended up with "Park Avenue Cocktail" - Marlene Dietrich, Audrey Hepburn, & Frank Sinatra. This was so fun! Thanks for sharing!

  53. "Old Money Extravagance"

    Cool. So where's my inheritance check?

    Aren't Winston Churchill, Anthony Hopkins and Greta Garbo all considered, um, kind of eccentric, for lack of a better term?

    Maybe I should find a psychiatrist.

    Thanks for the best laugh I've had in a while!
