I agree with the other commenter about the wall-to-wall carpet which kind of detracts. I think the owners might check out Darryl Carter's book "The New Traditional" for a more inspiring take on a t...

Is it just me, or are some of these rooms overdoing it a bit with "things." He could get rid of half the doo-dads in the living room and the room would seem more cohesive and dramatic.

I can't put my finger on it, but this home is missing something. One step forward might be investing in real pieces of art.

I would argue that a corner unit would give you MORE privacy, not less, since I don't think having an abutting neighbor on both sides is a great definition of privacy.

Art, art, art!

Can't wait to see art on the walls. Bare walls and beige couches make me nervous!

You know, I live in a 100-year-old building and when we moved in, I immediately wanted to paint the cabinets, which were new but plain old oak and not as high end as yours. We decided not to do it,...

In one of the photos, the graffiti mural seems to really heavily weigh down one side of the room in contrast with the other white walls. I wonder if it might work better if the entire wall had been...

Well, I know I'm the only one thinking this, but I'm wondering if a colorful rug would compete too much with your colorful chairs and great artwork? If you really think you need a rug, maybe try on...

The simplest idea I can think of is just to eliminate one chair. Do you really need it?

The renovation is impressive but the furnishings themselves seem a little bit too staid, serious and neutral. A little more whimsy and pattern would probably go a long way. Two beige couches and a ...

That's my cat! An exact replica!

I think the renovation is a definite improvement, since pass-throughs feel kind of 80s to me. I do feel that the open bar draws attention to the difference in flooring, and I think I might have opt...

I like idontdobeige's idea --- seems the most natural of all the ideas...

How about an African stool or something a little bit more interesting?

I don't know what SunnyBlue is talking about. I have had many dogs in my life, all of which were neutered before the age of 1. All were great, easily-trained dogs. I don't know where people pick up...

I'm one of those who feels like every empty space doesn't necessarily need to be filled --- especially if there is no real functional purpose to whatever object you put there. That being said, if I...
