“However, because the carpet is such an iconic part of the home, we’re planning on keeping a bit of each color and commissioning a textile artist to make an art piece to hang on the wall. We’ll be mindfully updating things like flooring, but are going to keep as much of the original features as possible, while still making the home suitable for a modern family. For example, we’re keeping the original cabinets but adding new countertops and cabinet knobs,” Alysha said that the family will try to strike a balance between upgrading the home and keeping its most iconic parts.

The home and the 70s photoshoot going viral surprised the Jacksons. According to Alysha, they’re all “honored and thrilled that so many people want to follow along and love the home like we do.” Some people are, of course, upset that the family’s planning to change a few things, however, as Alysha pointed out, “They aren’t the ones that would have to potty train their toddlers on 40-year-old bathroom shag.”
