It’s time for #strsharesunday! Today we are sharing Archhouse WA 😍

Here’s a TFV first… an arch house! This super cute 1970s arch house is hosted by Alex and Erica, who are both in the graphic design world.

You have GOT to go to their feed and give them a like on all their pictures. This spot is so unique and special and we love that they have really leaned in on the uniqueness of this property. And they’ve done an amazing job rehabbing it! You can really tell they’ve put a lot of blood, sweat, tears, and money into it but it is SO worth the effort.

The before and after pictures are great! We hope you can get a ton of inspo from checking out this property. Check out how they’ve put the beds in this cabin, how they’ve put a couple of different beds in such a thoughtfully designed way.

We see you and the mustard yellow exterior casing, your mustard yellow sofa, and the painted green beams, Alex and Erica! We can tell you’re artists because there is a subtle through line throughout the entire property, and we are here for it. It is so good.

ANNNND they have some availability this month, so check them out and snag up those spots before we do!

We would love to feature YOU, so don’t forget to use #STRShareSunday to get your chance!
