I'm a huge library fan. Living in NYC, I have access to an awesome collection of books, movies, music, etc. For Jooly and others I would point out that most major libraries now offer ...

Most sconces sold at places like Ikea, Crate and Barrel, and the like are NOT hard-wired--while you screw them into the wall, they still have a cord you plug into a standard wall plug. For a living...

Deleilan, I think it definitely makes sense to replace that fridge with one that works better for you (especially since you own the fridge). Going to a mini fridge is a major lifestyle...

Iris, I have to respectfully disagree. On my mac with a 1280X 800 display, I have to scroll down to see the whole picture. When I go to the next picture I have to scroll my display every time. I re...

The Ikea strikt series is less expensive than the Container store and very sturdy--more so than kassett.

In the bay area, very few homes have air conditioning. When there's a heat wave in the bay area, it's brutal, because it's such a rare occurrence.

great job! I've lived with knotty pine--welcome to the other side.

While I don't mind the sponsored posts, I would change their placement to avoid that experience I have when I read the NY Times magazine and know something's off--and then see "special advertising ...

My methods may be a bit much for some people, but my guests appreciate it: 1. I provide a little note about how to access the internet, reminding them to help themselves to anything in the ki...

I think the floor plan works pretty well and the apartment is in good shape, I don't really get a sense that Cooper and Ali put much "design" into the space. What's unique is really just the placem...

I've offered this suggestion before. If you can't afford replacements (ikea or otherwise), you can remove the doors from the cabinetry and see if that helps. You can see an example from Blueprint h...

I would use it in one of the following ways: 1. Photography darkroom. 2. Nice library with wet bar (including comfy reading chair and books). For that, I would remove everything ...

I have a fanatical love of red/brown, which can be splashed with either peach or yellow.

I had already planned to cancel the subscription--and the two issues I received validated my initial plan. Living serves a completely different audience--that I'm not part of.

I grow wheatgrass for my cats, and I've found it pretty easy despite my black thumb. I put some potting soil in an ikea tumbler glass, put a layer of wheatgrass seeds, and then a light layer if soi...

If you were more inclined for a work table, I'd go for the cb2 peekaboo console table. Great size (without being too big) for spreading out. If more inclined for reading, I would prob...

We've run the whole gamut. When we first started dating I was actually able to fall asleep in B a few times--but no more. Usually it starts with A, moves into H with R.E.M. and then b...
