Things Are Getting Ugly in the Battle Over the Village at Wolf Creek in Colorado
The Village at Wolf Creek
Another day, another delay in the 30-year fight over the Village at Wolf Creek. This time, however, things are turning nasty. A few months ago, the U.S. Forest Service approved a controversial land swap atop Colorado's Wolf Creek Pass that represented a milestone in the fight to develop a new mountain village. Now, after a U.S. District Court judge in Denver ordered nearly 60,000 pages of correspondence released, it looks like there is evidence that U.S. Forest Service officials tried to conceal documents related to their review.

The tiny home movement shows no signs of stopping, especially in ski towns where real estate prices are booming. For people who value design but can't afford the high-price of mountain land, the popular tiny home community of Fireside Resort in Jackson Hole has a solution.

Let's Talk About Bathroom Design Pet Peeves
Rendering of a bathroom in The Fitzroy, a new condo building under development in NYC
Oh bathrooms: they are the best of rooms, they are the worst of rooms. When it comes to interior design and decor, bathrooms can bring a lot of fun (they're great places to try out unexpected materials or graphic tiles, for example), but also a lot of stress (they're often small, damp, and well, the part of the house no one wants to clean.) They're personal, intimate spaces where habits and preferences are born and ingrained, and where, not too surprisingly then, even the smallest things can tick us off. Take for the example, the freestanding bathtub (okay, this is actually a rather big thing, but stay with us here.)
How about black toilets or exposed pipes? >>
