It's a Tie!

Last Saturday, I updated you on our Airstream progress and ran a poll to get your opinion on which design concept was your favorite.

It looks like it is a TIE between:

The Classic Design

1. cabinetry 2. stainless countertop 3. exterior awning 4a. (option) cork flooring 4b. (option) wood flooring 5. faucet 6. rug 7. light fixtures 8. camp chair 9. pillow 10. bedding 11. blanket 12. decorative pillow fabric 13. roman shade fabric 14. gaucho fabric 15. decorative pillow fabric 16. decorative pillow fabric

and The Retro Design

Photobucket

So, now onto the tie breaker.

Leave me a comment voting for classic or retro.
I will tally them and tell you tomorrow AM.

My husband and I trying really hard to decide whether we should
*restore the Airstream (make as close to original as possible) or
*renovate it (modernize,change what we want have fun with it, make it ours).

I would love to hear your opinions on whether you feel we should restore or renovate.

    I like the retro! But I do think you can renovate it while using fun, punchy colors.

    Both are so good but my eye keeps being drawn to the retro. So I vote for some r & r...retro & renovate. :) Good luck deciding!

    Make it yours and I love the classic. So much more unexpected than retro. What ever you pick I say make it what you love and don't get to hung up on a perfect restoration , after all its YOUR hang out. (can you tell I'm not a purist)

    I would vote for the one that's NOT like your
    home - so when you are in your vintage airstream - you know your away and have escaped!

    They are both fabulous but think the Retro has won through for me

    Classic! And I would probably renovate. But keep some classic restored touches.
