I think Room and Board will customize many of its tables to your size needs. Worth a call to them to find out --

Monika -- I think much of the earlier collection is still available at Garnet Hill, just not as prominently displayed as the new stuff. You can also check out the Eileen Fisher website, which carr...

Thanks for the comments. I have an exposed brick wall in another part of my house that I plan to paint opaque, so I can use that as my test area. I don't think my brick is sealed --...

Ideally, I'd go for white box modernism. But high modernism isn't forgiving. Space has to have great bones for it to work. The recent curlicue modernism is attainable and easy to l...

I would add Smith and Hawken to the list.

No amount of comfort could make up for that eyesore.

For a few weeks, spend a few hours each week going through your magazines and pulling out photos and articles that jump out at you. Then put them in a binder as Erin suggested. You'll still have ...

Maybe I've read too many shelter magazines, but these photos seem to be canned shelter magazine style. Is canned eclecticism an oxymoron? In the main living area, the small white si...

They look too much like something I'd find in a hospital room.

I agree with Harley - I like the chairs as is. I have a newish one, and I wish it looked a bit worn.

And another felt one from designer's eye: http://www.twisthome.com/pages/accessories_divider.htm (yes, I've been sh...

Fantastic apartment, great terrace, and I appreciate that the owners don't feel the need to replace/update everything, and don't waste energy on a/c (that was in the article). But ...

Tatyana -- I did miss the first response to your post. But pointing out my oversight with "asked and answered" is a little snippy. I think this site is great, and I love reading everyone's...

Very nice, and realistic for a change. Tatyana -- Your advice to reverse the dining and living areas doesn't account for the narrowness of the dining area.

The shelving looks like cubits from DWR (http://www.dwr.com/productdetail.cfm?id=8254). Very nice use of them.
