I think there is a definite difference in how a woman will decorate a home as opposed the the way a man would. Using the word "packrat" is unhelpful because it doesn't really describe the differenc...
I like minimal, but this feels "unfurnished", particularly in light of the shabby chic stuff on the right side by (and including) the cabinet. I love the bathroom but I'm glad I don't have to do bo...
Definitely up there for the top prize. The most amazing thing to me is that even many of those who are apt to say "needs color!" or "doesn't look like anyone lives here!" like it. That's quite a fe...
I've had one of these things for about 6 months and despite what it looks like, the thing does actually work. I know because a rich patina of grime appears on it over the course of a week and begs ...
I liked it a lot, especially the lighting and the I'd-never-do-it-but-it's-creative tube shelves. Then I hit the pic with the "futon". I definitely see what you're trying to do with it, but with th...
Super cool. I even liked the "bed of death". There's a rail. I'm just not quite sure how you'd get into it from the photo. Do you have to climb onto the desk?
Do you guys often fall ou...
Star Wars prop replicas, including a Han Solo blaster and 3 full-sized lightsaber hilts, one of which is a wall-mounted, dual-bladed one that lights up and makes noises when you swing it.
I looked through all the pictures and could not find the T & A. Talk about false advertising!
Seriously though, Frank is right about it feeling very UES. Not super cool in my book, but...
Why are photos and nicknacks the only thing that gives a living space personality? The absence of such things are just as much an indication of personality as their presence. If you're going to cri...
Lower Westchester represent, yo! I grew up in Mt Vernon and went to school at Iona.
I like it better than most places in the area, but it feels a bit too "8 colors, 8 walls. Which col...
Michael, you're letting it bother you way too much. The "decorator" types way outnumber the "spatial/architectural" types on AT and in meatspace, particularly considering that the majority of the p...
@Blandwagon - more like the follolwing exchange:
Decorator: So blah! There need to be PICTURES!
Melissa: There will be no art. Art distracts from the simplicity of the roo...
I really like the look of the kitchen and bathroom area. Has a Nostromo (the ship from the movie Alien) kind of feel. The transition to the living area is jarring though.

It kind of reminds me of the eyeball from the creepy Coke Zero commercial saying that it isn't fat.
DWR has it for $500. It's expensive, but not at all out of line with other...

From the "DIY" in the name, I'd guess he's done more than jack with it.

Loved the test tube spice rack. Otherwise, not really my style.

I was all set to love it until I saw the bed. Totally ruined the ride. Even so, it looks like a great place.

I'm just glad nobody's gloating or anything. That's always unpleasant for all concerned.
