Looks great but they can't be sealed right. We have on in the office and air slips through in the cold season and you bake during the summer. Nanawall is a more practical solution for homes,...

That’s funny you mention "Howl's Moving Castle". They park this thing in Oakeyville (Oakland, Berkeley, Emeryville Area) at an artist run compound. I had just watched "Howl's Moving Castle" w...

Consider your room light source. I painted the walls in our loft BM Sea Froth (2107-60). this warm gray on the brown side worked well with the light blue I used for the kitchen and darker brown gra...
