Want more skiing in your life?

Between the end of August and early September, Park City is opening the doors of some of its most innovative and stylish homes to the general public. For about $15 per person, you can peek into 18 select, brand new homes ranging from original in their design, large in their overall area, or stunning with the views they display.

It's not that we're voyeurs; instead, we're always on the look out for original design ideas and sometimes, we find some, even though we see more mistakes and poor architectural choices than should be allowed, or possible, in this day and age. Bad architects and developers are not extinct yet!

One thing I found yesterday in such a questionable house was a girl (?) bedroom decorated wall-to-wall with ski paraphernalia.

The head-board on the picture is particularly stunning; as if is there wasn't enough skiing in the daily life of that young person, should there be an extra need to plant a collection of skis into her dreams?

I'd personally fear to fall impaled upon these menacing ski tips, but it's only one opinion. Racers could fill their head-board with 1 pair of slalom, 1 pair of GS and 1 pair of downhill boards from the previous season. If the bed is wide enough, they could also add 1 pair of Super G, or simply double up the numbers.

Even coming from a fanatic skier like me, I think this is a clear case of skiing overload!
