Discove r Cit yV iewN C.co m's fre s h up d ate d loo k ! | 17 e house is filled with personal choices and personal touches. Lots of things came from "junk" shops and oeat sources, including the antique fans, the vintage tabletop wood-and- peg pinball game in her den, and the lighting fixtures made of wires and pipes that convey the industrial aesthetic known as steampunk. "I can't pass a junk shop without going in," Quismundo said with a laugh. Some things are in unusual places that nonetheless seem perfect in this house, like the turntable in a small suitcase in the kitchen – it gets plenty of use – and the hammer head that hangs upside down over the kitchen sink, acting as a hook for an enclosed glass planter. Nearby, a (fake) white mouse that was a gi sits on a wine bottle mounted on the wall. Her 13-year-old son, who loves science, science fiction and video games, has a bedroom befitting his interests. One wall is covered by a huge poster of an astronaut walking on the moon. While the Death Star he made is in the dining room, other Star Wars items are neatly displayed on shelves. A map of the United States is attached to one wall and bedecked with pins showing places that he has traveled with his mom. Out back, the deck contains umbrella-topped tables, comfortable chairs and arty odds and ends. Quismundo sometimes works out there on her computer, accompanied by her black Labrador, Iris. At night, the deck is festively lit with fairy lights. Quismundo said the house is a work in progress, with projects getting done as she has time and money and as new ideas strike her. "If something doesn't work," she said, "I just change it again." by Clayton Britt & Sons communities together one pool at a time for over 35 years! 910.868.8319 | spaandpoolworld.com | claytonbrittandsonsinc.com 3703 Bragg Blvd. | www.SpaandpoolWorld.com | 910.868.8319 Bringing families & communities together one pool at a time for over 49 years! time to REFRESH Visit our website to learn how you can save .net 2825 Raeford Rd | (910) 485 - 5865 up to $500
