What did you expect? Coffins and dungeons and moats?

I used to hate rainy days, but now they just make me feel like I have moved to Forks... say what you will, love or hate, about the whole Twilight Saga (I squarely fall in the love category- and of course team Edward) but it really does have something for everyone. A little violence- it is vampires after all, romance, a love triangle, gorgeous shots of the misty rainy Pacific Northwest and some amazing design! No I am not talking about Bella's house...the Cullen house, after all they are hundreds of years old so they should know a thing or two about refined style.



Edward breezes through the house but those few shots are enough to make you realize what a stunning house it is. The house used in the movie was recently on the market and thanks to the glorious world wide web twi-heart fans the world over got a better look at the house.


If the 3.3 million dollar price tag is out of reach for the whole house and if you want to take some of that chic minimal style home and create your own homage to Edward you better start saving because, while he doesn't sleep, his bedroom hold some classic examples of mid-century modern furnishings.
Platner table from Knoll, Plush grey rug (you can get those anywhere), Walnut Eames DCM Chair, Free Floating Bookshelf (used in white in the movie) is the Sapien from DWR, and since he doesn't need a bed the Barcelona Couch from Knoll is the perfect place for a chic Vampire to lounge.
