It's a beautiful couch, and I think you could DEFINITELY make it work with a modern aesthetic.
I'm sad, however, that you included lots of photos of the couch, but none of the rest of ...
do you by chance have the measurements? the bedroom looks to be about 10' x 11'? the living room maybe 13' x 14'?
i second the suggestion of only one couch, with a nice comfy chair o...
You could just buy a huge canvas, paint it however you'd like it to be (bold, graphic, etc), and then lean it up against the wall behind the couch, pulling the couch out from the wall a bit so you ...
I like it a lot! The tone-on-tone checkerboard of the cork is fantastic; it has a subtlety the black-and-white lacks, but still has a lot of visual punch.
It has a perched, kind of nest-like quality to it, lots of overlooks both internal and external. I might suggest a descriptive name that evokes some of those ideas. Like ___ Landing, or the Overl...
For the most part it's fantastic, but the backsplash is going to look dated very, very soon. I guess on the upside it's not absurdly expensive to replace a backsplash?
What about putting the bed on the right wall of the kitchen (the one separating it from the entry area), headboard up against the kitchen wall, and then hanging a curtain at the foot of the bed ext...
I don't think you'll be able to stain them without stripping them. I think your best bet in a rental is a liberal use of area rugs (with some effort you can find some that very nearly fill the who...
I'd only display the handful of objects you like the most, and keep those out (rotating as new things come in). If anyone asks about the hideous tsotchke they got you, you can tell them that you l...
Do you think you might be able to sketch up a floorplan? You've got quite a challenge on your hands; I think we might need every weapon in the arsenal. :-)
You can mark off a designated area (e.g., the back 5 feet of lawn) and train him to only use that area. You'd still have to stay on top of cleaning up after him so he can do his business there, bu...
Absolutely. Especially living in New York, because groceries are heavy to carry and bringing them on the subway can be a huge hassle, especially if you run out after work (i.e., during the end of ...

omg i love it. i love it ferociously.
A fuschia/magenta might look intensely awesome if you have the chutzpah. If not, a purpley brick red would balance the sage greenish really nicely.

My guess is between 1977 and 1982.

I like it, but I think it would only work in certain kinds/styles of rooms. Hot, but with limited applications.
