After the cleaning spree of the past few days and with a friend coming into town this weekend, we are considering spending our first night in the house in the next couple of days. But first, we needed to set the furniture up, leading us on the first steps of layout and deciding how we want the rooms to look.

Courtesy of De-victorianization on Division we found a fun design quiz to help your put a name to your style. I filled mine out and then had fun watching Thor take the test. I got to see what things we had in common, and where we were different. Thor told me half way through “I hate this.” I guess he wasn’t having as much fun. Final results?

Global influences abound in the way you’ve decorated and furnished our home. It’s a look that works well on a budget, and at the same time it says something about you and your interests: you particularly love collecting things that tell a story or trigger a memory and help make your place relaxing and inviting.
Describes me pretty well. I love displaying things that we’ve picked up in our travels around our home.
Thor: International Chic
Not so long ago the craze for ethnic-style was ubiquitous. Maybe you embraced it or eschewed it, but anyway, you’ve moved on since then. Your home still reflects a passion for travel and an appreciation for other cultures without seeking to mimic or patronize. Classic, or even quite anonymous, pieces of furniture sit among pieces from far flung parts of the globe.
An alright description, but the furniture pictured doesn’t describe him at all. Still, sounds like we’re similar enough that we’ll both be pretty happy with however our home turns out. Take the quiz and let us know what you are.
