Fantastic job.

When I first saw the exterior shot of the living room window, I started humming the haunting music to Alfred Hitchcock’s “North by Northwest”. I was somewhat reminded of that night-shot of the outside of the Frank Lloyd Wright house in that film, as Cary Grant snuck around the grounds trying to locate Eva Marie Saint’s room.

The furniture is most creative, but the piano is in a class all by itself. I would never have thought to use brick-hinges for the black keys.

Looking forward to more great works.
