My favourite inspiration at the moment: a Manhattan couple with seven (!) kids, transforming dilapidated buildings into supercool recidences for families. Even with basket playground on the roof! Bold colours, a lot of contemporary art and some kitsch touches. Now they are out with the book "Downtownchic", beautiful illustrations of their work and funny stories about every renovation they did. Comforting.
Check them on their website:

mmmmmm....still haven' t decided the colours pattern for the facade?!? Just saw a charming old Volkswagen minibus painted in coffee and cream: just perfect!!! Think about it, my dearest.
