amanni: Not sure where you're located, but White on White in New York makes a look-alike for $400. (whiteonwhite.com)

I have green glass mosaic tiles in the vein of #7 with all different shades, and I'm sure you could find colors to match your wood. It's the first thing everyone sees and loves when they enter my ...

MODERnestS: I know the artist who made the giant portrait.

I was in this apartment for costume fitting for a web series promo. It's an amazing space, and I'm so glad to see it featured; really lovely and tranquil. And if you could look into more of the h...

My father spent three "summers" working in Antarctica 1959-1962 and NG asked for his photos, but they were destroyed in transit, and so growing up I only ever saw his "b-sides" as it were. This se...

All those '60's show families would be smirking today if their mid-Century-modern furnishings were still in great shape!

... and a child too. But I totally admire the effort.

Do you peel first and then freeze, and if so do you cut them up first to smaller pieces?

There's also the white connected-cards now being sold at MOMA and elsewhere that open up to reveal the NY cityscape or the blocks of the city with landmarks too.

I used to have a Montreal 1976 Olympic poster of the colored rings if anyone wants me to search it out. And as a side note I actually qualified for the 1984 Olympic Trials in Synchronized Swimming...

Many AZ homes in my sister's community have front yards like this but the backs are then fully cultivated and irrigated: lush with grass and swimming pools, which is a crazy disconnect. It's defin...

For those interested, that art looks very like my friend r.r. lyon (similar if not his, which is often comprised of smaller but more numerous individual paintings on plexi): www.lyona...

The architects I know are always at their desks anyway working or thinking, so while I couldn't live there, if his downtime is less than we think I guess he's ok.

Is anyone else concerned about not having a landline if things go awry like on 9/11 here in New York when cellphones worked only spottily if at all but I had a landline at home (and at the time I o...

What about dripping some wax and stamping a design/initial for envelope enclosure.

They say it's "so home-y" and "really reflects my passions" -- bright, with big theatre-posters (many Shakespeares), books and movies. They also covet my East River view!

OMG, until recently moving to a small co-op Lower East Side I lived 18 years directly across the street from your place above what used to be Teresa's Polish restaurant (now the French? place next ...
