You love to indulge in everything
the city has to offer—culture,
shopping, food. You love having
people over, but you also run a
tight ship. Those wine bottles will
go in the recycling at the end of
the night.
Woooo! You live party to party
and love to go over the top in
everything you do. You never
stress about keeping everything
in perfect order at home —that
mess just proves you’re living life
to the fullest.
You like to surround yourself with
the finer things, but you’re not
hanging from the chandelier.
You’re more likely to spend big on
a wireless home entertainment
center than a caterer for a
big blowout.
You might have spent good
money on your furniture, but
you’re not going to freak out if
you spill some takeout on it.
You’re laid back about cleaning,
price tags, and life in general.

To you, the good life isn’t
necessarily about city views and
4-star restaurants, it’s about
backyard BBQs, fire pits, and hot
tubs. You love to have fun, and
you want the space (and the
yard) to do it right.
Sure you live in the suburbs, but
that doesn’t mean you’re uptight.
You’ll use that pool to throw a
pool party and invite all the
neighbors. Cleaning up the next
day? That’s a different story.
You’re all about the good life,
but you like to keep it chill. All
you want is a nice place with a
good view from the deck, some
quality whiskey, and a little
peace and quiet.
Cram your 50-inch HD flatscreen
and pool table into a city studio?
Not a chance. You’ll take the
suburbs any day, so you can
spread out, kick back, and enjoy
your creature comforts in style.

Urbanite
All you need to have a good time
is your friends. No need for a
flashy hipster pad—you’re all
about substance over style. And
the less fancy stuff you have, the
less you have to worry about
wrecking it!
You love filling your place with
cool people—but you could care
less about filling it with cool
stuff. For you, chairs are places
for your friends to sit, not “home
decor,” and wine glasses were
meant to be occasionally broken.
Your home is your personal
respite from the city rat race.
You’ve got all the basics to keep
it comfortable and tidy, but you
don’t feel the need to deck it
out. Why buy a new bed when
that futon from college is still
going strong?
Your home is the urban oasis
where you sleep, keep your stuff,
and watch TV. Beyond that, you
don’t give it much thought. You
are the least likely to notice if
your place gets robbed.

You’ve got a tight-knit group of
friends, and don’t need to blow
cash at hipster bars in the city to
have a good time. You always
clean your place before people
come over, but you don’t stress
that the coffee table is cracked.
Your bar in the basement has
seen some things, but you
couldn’t tell by looking at it.
You like nothing more than
having good people around and
could care less about having the
latest TV or serving the finest
charcuterie. You’ll gladly leave
the lawn mowing for another day;
fun comes first, second, third,
and last.
One of the great things about
getting away from the city is not
feeling pressured to always be
doing something. You’d easily
trade the cramped, noisy urban
life for a place you can spread
out, make your own, and just
hang out in.
You are The Dude. Your place
isn’t fancy, and half
the time it isn’t even clean—but
it is private and maybe you’ve got
a rug that pulls it all together.
Rich, pretentious people annoy
and confuse you.

DELUXIST:
You think of your home as an extension of your personal style.
Spending money on your living space isn’t frivolous; it’s an
investment in your comfort and happiness.
FRUGALIST:
You’ll choose function over form. Why blow cash on an expensive
couch that’s just a vehicle for you and your potato chips? Your
home gets the job done and that’s all there is to it.
SOCIAL BUTTERFLY:
Your mantra is “I’ll sleep when I’m dead.” You see your home more
as a gathering spot than a personal sanctuary, and you unwind by
being social rather than seeking downtime.
LONE WOLF:
You like to chill. Your ideal weeknight is more likely to involve
Netflix than beer pong. Your home is where you can unwind and
wear sweatpants—without shame and without underpants.

NEAT FREAK:
You get a lot of satisfaction from keeping your place on point.
In fact, you secretly like doing the dishes. When your place feels
organized, you feel at peace.
HOT MESS:
You believe life is too short to waste it bleaching the bathtub.
You’ve got better things to do, and honestly, you prefer a place that
feels a little lived in (and sometimes a lot lived in).
URB:
You want to be in the center of it all, and are willing to sacrifice a
little peace, quiet, and green space to get it. The suburbs would
crush your soul and you need that soul to sing karaoke.
BURB:
You’ve always dreamed of having a backyard and some space to
spread out. Living downtown is not a priority when you can hone
your cornhole game whenever you please.
