Yes, the Emeco chair is worth whatever price Emeco chooses to sell it for because it's their product. If the company was flattered, they wouldnt be fighting the sale of the knockoffs...

"If you cant afford it, then you shouldnt own it. " What a pompous ass! No..it's called integrity. I dont support the theft of other people's work and I dont steal myself. I d...

I am always dismayed when this website that supposedly celebrates good design and creativity recommends buying knockoffs. I regularly see the question: "where can I get something like this but ch...

I've never understood the point of this product. Why a drawer? I see no benefit to that at all versus a door. And the drawer's reduced size versus a regular dishwasher will limit the size of ite...

This comes across to me as a very sophisticated use of color. The window frames being almost the same color as the walls make it almost seem like you are floating in space and gives your fantastic...

I love Fiesta Ware and I love how you've used the colors as the theme for your kitchen. I also really like those two slim cabinets on either side of your stove...what a great use of space. The f...

I lived in an apartment once with painted counter tops and they held up remarkably well. I lived there 5 years and never had of the scratches or chips that I was expecting.

this topic is making me feel so much better. I also sort everything by color, including socks. I have two rods..the one on the left is all tops/shirts. the one on the right is all ...

I'm not a fan of the curtains going to the floor in a kitchen. Why not make your own doors? Get two pieces of thin plywood..I think it's called luan..cut to fit the door frame.

the idea of putting on borrowed slippers that other people have worn is disgusting. yuck.

Would it be possible to take out the guts of the computer and turn that into storage? It would be great with shelves and hanging rods for clothes.

I have that same ice bucket. If only I had a dollar for every time a guest has asked "What is THAT?"

it's a great old oak card catalog cabinet. it's not supposed to look modern. why not sell it for a couple hundred dollars and buy what you really want.

bird and beef, I think your approach in dealing with your landlord is excellent. It was the various suggestions to you to ignore your landlord's wishes and paint anyway that I was commentin...

it takes quite alot of nerve and lack of consideration to make permanent changes to SOMEONE ELSE'S property. If someone painted property that I owned against my wishes, I would do more than keep t...

I'm a big fan of keeping the space between pictures/artwork the same and the outside edges asymmetrical. examples here:

Moving someone else's laundry: if the machine has stopped and you are not there to remove your own clothes, it's perfectly acceptable for someone else to move them. They dont know if/when you'll ...

you can brighten up the interior of the cupboard by creating a false background. Cut posterboard to size to fit between the shelves and then paint it whatever color you prefer, or use fabric or wa...
