This is genius. It is basically exactly a sheet of plywood (4'x8') with a bit cut off around it? I have a few sheets and might give this a go....My only concern is that a whole sheet weights, lik...

I agree.... this is not a new concept. I love my library - it feeds my voracious appetite for design books, and it has all the latest ones. It's like Borders for free.

Gave an extra point for the rock'n'roll bear

You can woodwork in NYC at a number of places in Brooklyn: 3rd Ward Makeville Beagle and Pots Treehouse I've tried 3rd Ward and Makeville. Makeville run...

Roost sells them for $98 for the pair. A little cheaper. Plus, they have a whole animal themed section of their online shop.

They have these in the bar of the Hudson Hotel in New York. People sit on them. Not too comfortable for long periods of time.

Hello again. Mine was got at Paradise Plants on 28th St.

Yes. Fiddle leafed fig. I have one. Friend bought it for me from the Flower district - it's a lot cheaper there, although I believe still in a hundreds. They will deliver. Do not go to a fancy ...

Slightly off topic, but I used to work in an office building with the nicest toilets ever. The ceilings were 13 feet high. The whole space was clad in big slabs of limestone. The doors to the st...

I would highly recommend AmericanFrame.com. The shipping is extremely reasonable. I framed a picture that was probably 7 foot long by 2 feet down (sort of like yours) and it cost roug...

Many Singaporean / Malaysian interiors have white marble / tile floors, but hey, it's like 50 degrees outside and 90% humidity.

I do not understand how Architectural Digest manages to do so well. All the homes in there look like the insides of Vegas hotels.

Cool. I had a look at Dean-Melbourne's flickr site, and, what do you know, I used to live at one of these buildings:

I used to borrow Christmas books from my library in February when I was a kid. They would have to get them out from storage for me.

And, being Australian, I always thought all animals had to be quarantined for ages (like, 6 months or something) when they entered.

Yes, there are many, many people who could still afford this apartment in NYC. Average property sells for over $1m in Manhattan. I'm not sure if people get paid more for doing the same things. M...

We had pigeons nest in the cavaties left behind by a too-small through-the-wall airconditioner. The chicks were cute. Then a month later they weren't so cute. Then when we had millions of tiny l...

I know for sure that no new plumbing is allowed without a permit in NYC. If you are replacing fixtures, then no permit is needed.

I once tried to place an order... and no one ever got back to me. Which is annoying.

If you want to see what the market price is, why not sell it at auction?
