I have a feeling my boyfriend and I are going to be having this exact same debate soon enough-- as I've been on the hunt for a piece like this to use as a credenza in the living room for his huge t...

In my smaller space (than yours) I painted the walls a light gray-- Ralph Lauren, Sailor's Knot. I've found it keeps the room light and airy without being cold or drab. Ambient lighting and mirrore...

Thankfully some people have used this question to be constructive and help the poster. But what is with the rest of the MIL dirty laundry assumptions and ridiculousness? Imagine if you posed this q...

As much as I love reading "hers" because I do agree, I don't think the issue is which sofa, but rather how to make the red one work. After much thought about this, here are my thoughts: 1) change t...

Actually, I am moving to Texas, hence furniture for sale and the apartment for rent. I suppose I should consider selling those side tables, huh?

Thumbs way up, I love how clean and organized this space is!

I love everything about this, with the minor exception of the large teal graphic portrait. This is such an elegant use of space!!

This is so clean, so thoughtful. I adore this space. Is that a chocolate Mao sculpture?? Perhaps the most impressive thing about this post is that the space belongs to a man!

This is a well curated apartment. It's not too minimal, or formal, but it incorporates elements of both minimalism and formalism. It's a smart, updated and personal version of mid century modern. I...

The image above the bed is actually wood grain contact paper that I blew up and cut out. The design is not particularly personal to me, it's just a section of contemporary tromp loeil wallpaper tha...

Here's the thing, of course I love lots of aspects of this house, but it's so MCM that I wonder where is the personality? The outside has tons of personal charm, but the inside just is. For me anyway.

If you want to full-on cover a portion of the fireplace (particularly the tiles) I would purchase a canvas, or make one, the size of the space you want to cover and mount on it a photograph of your...

-Ditch the vertical blinds for sure -Get light and bright curtains, even just sheers would make a huge difference -The couch is a bit large for the space, although I like the idea of fl...

standupstapler: thanks so much for the idea! Azure: The headboard is from Urban Outfitters, and because I work for Anthro I got to use my fantastic discount on it! They are actually p...

To respond to alisong: I will try and track down my original drawing and post assembly/material details along with it. It was a bit involved. To respond to peggy: I'm not sure which l...

Sunan, you are so kind. The shower curtain is also about the same vintage as the rug, it however was purchased from CB2 Oh and, the "painting" above the bed is actually a wood-grain co...

Thanks so much for all of the kind comments-- to answer a few questions: The Ostrich Egg is from Elements in Chicago The Rug I purchased from Crate an Barrel over a year ago

I would perhaps find a unit that your mini fridge might fit in, so as to hide that, and then either using the small bar that is hardly viewable in the picture to better display your bottles. I agre...

I don't think they'll be available until June...

After reading all of these comments I agree with most of the do's and don'ts and appreciate the situations both good and bad all of us have gone through in some ways- together. That said, my only r...
