I think this is a message loud & clear to American publishers. What I find so appealing about Living Etc. is not just the quality of its content but also the quantity of it. I always feel like I go...

It's a sad loss. I was about to send in the check... oh well. I really *want* to like Met Home but it leaves me a bit cold. ReadyMade is really good but obviously not for everyone. I adore Living E...

That looks like it came from Smart Furniture (smartfurniture.com) I have the same thing in black, but larger. What's great about these is the assembly: no nails or hardware - the pieces slot togeth...

How fun! Congrats Maxwell & company!

"The Holiday" has an amazing English stone cottage... so cozy. I could just curl up in it for the entire winter. This puts me in the mood to watch it now...

I was home on Thompson Street, up unusually early. The towers were the view from my ground-floor doorstep. I had just returned from Ireland and was unpacking; the video camera caught much of it.

Thanks Miaues! I ended up going with NYCityVan. They just left a few minutes ago and I was so pleased. They were efficient and friendly - and insured! I would totally recommend them. I found their ...

Hi All- Been a while since I posted. Does anyone know of a good "man with a van" service for Manhattan? I have to move a rather large glass & steel Room & Board table from Chinatown to Soho b...

I live in a ground floor co-op on Thompson St. No garden - my neighbor has access to the small patch of concrete -but I appreciate not having to haul things up many flights. And being able to whee...

I have a similar mirror, albeit smaller, that was also the same bronze color. I found some lovely paint in a champagne/silver color...(I guess that would be platinum?) It's a very soft patina...

I live street-level so one of the new trees is actually right outside my window. It gives me mixed feelings because as it grows, the roots could potentially compromise a retaining wall for the base...

It's a hybrid vehicle, also part of the giveaway.

And who can sleep knowing your upstairs neighbor can peer down right at you? Sleeping under the stars may work in a different location, but this was a bizarre plan for such close quarters. I doubt ...

Nice but not ergonomic for long stretches of time. My back aches just looking at it.

The Delano Hotel in Miami also has this look.

Geek-gasm!

My favorite flower source of late, unusually enough, is Trader Joe's. Over a week ago I got a large heavenly mixed bouquet that included roses and lilies for only $10. Even when the roses faded new...

I have industrial design lust. But I am afraid to go ...it will break the heart of this girl who has a rattling piggy bank. Sob.

I need to dispose of an old wooden block of knives - any advice for the proper way to do this? Wrap them securely with tape and discard in normal trash? My NYC recycling info sheet doesn't seem to ...

Enjoy your new home - how exciting for you! It's wonderful that you get to stay in the neighborhood you love.
