Well, this is one fascinating idea. Eleanor Lanahan and John Douglas, both Vermont artists, live together yet separately–Eleanor lives in the house on the left side of the photo (above) and John lives in the house on the right side of the photo, and both are joined together by a 20-foot overpass.
Writes The New York Times, “Mr. Douglas plays the music he likes in his space; Ms. Lanahan plays what she likes in hers. They eat and sleep in Ms. Lanahan’s house and watch the news after dinner in her living room, but tend to watch movies in his space. During the day, they often communicate by phone.”
When you read the article, you’ll realize the two are strikingly different but respect and admire their partner’s unique interests and desires.
What do you guys think? A sweet and smart idea, or too nontraditional for your taste?
