Houses of the Famous - Monk's Cottage

I just came across the pictures of actor Tony Shalhoub's Martha's Vineyard Cottage, playing the sympathetic character of Adrian Monk - a brilliant San Francisco detective, whose obsessive compulsive disorder just happens to get in the way.

 Look at the clever use of small pictures to make a simple interior elegant and artistic. The only thing that troubles my eyes here are those protruding fence planks on the bed, but I like the calmness of the atmosphere - a great place to spend summer days!
