New member in Grapevine

Well just signed on last...night and did a whole lot of looking....yea so I live in Grapevine...unfortunatly I love modern style but live in a NON-modern area of DFW its like being surrounded by a bunch of wannabee Italian homes Tuscan style...but anyways

I guess I have a few questions or one big question.

I love modern styling and living but my wife doesn't and of course she wont let me do the decorating of the house...I do have ALITTLE say in the office but not much.....how can I intergrate my modern style love into my office?

Also my house is a 2000 sq ft home built in 1977 and it is a one story home

What is great we do have alot of space to work with but I love the idea of space saving modern style furniture that doesnt take up alot of space but very very simple looking

So anyways that is me and I just want to say hello

And this is something that I love in terms of style and functionality
