LOL at the coffee aroma from across the street! One morning when I got off the bus downtown, the entire city smelled like coffee AND doughnuts (from a nearby Kroger bakery). Now that was a great ...
I love it--I'm already thinking about people on the street seeing my cats lying/sitting casually on the shelves and watching the world go by. But how to balance that vision with my need for privac...
I arrange sofas and chairs so that the cats can sit/lie on the back and look outside. I also arrange furniture so that cats are not given easy access to places I don't want them to go.
The last photo (with the bar stools) reminds me of the "It's Lovely I'll Take It" blog--all those chairs have obviously backed up to the walls, a la a bar room shootout in an old western movie, and...

It's all about the bones of the room, and then you can fill it with things or with color or texture or all three. I believe that clutter, i.e., too many things in a space, prevents you from enjoyi...

I like the examples, but it seems like most of the collapsible/foldable/etc furnishings are so expensive!
