I think the library with all the white book covers is hilarious! Can you imagine all the hotel guests frowning as they scratch their heads and wonder about a shelving system? And then wondering wha...

Wow...I love #4. Bookmarking that one. I completely agree with FantasticMrFaux, Anna Europe, Khatam, paintitbright, and HeyNowTex and thank them for kindly offering their comments.

Ooh...I like the colors already in the picture. I agree with nixing the rug--I personally think rug on carpet looks tacky unless the entire area is covered up. I agree wi...

Smoke doesn't just damage or stink up your stuff--it's also really bad for your health. Especially in your case, since the smoking is going on in an enclosed space with little ventilation. I would ...

Uh no. Not for me. I'd rather not think about eating dim sum every time I reach over for erasers or post-its. Agreed with manu-pty. Storage containers are supposed to make your life e...

I really like the idea of using chairs as night tables. It looks really good here. Love the puzzle pieces used to double as stars. Love all the textures and patterns I'm seeing all over the place. ...

Wait a minute. deliriumsama, are you saying that this particular tradition started in the Victorian age?

Wow...LakeDreamer. I just saw your dresser--beautifully done and inspirational and actually one of the best ikea hacks i've seen. I would consider this a hack--I personally am not resourceful enoug...

Very cool place. I agree with AT--this is definitely the sort of place where you'd linger longer just to take look a closer look at each thing. Just looking at the prints will take a lot of time. W...

Wow...I am awed. Like nikko said, every piece has a place--as if the piece was loved so much that you took care to find a place for it. I especially like your furniture. How inspirati...

Great post! I feel awful for anyone in this scenario but these seem like great tips! I would never have thought of asking for a femtocell or going with a Bluetooth solution and/or skype. All of the...

Thanks for the rec. I head over to the Bay Area several times a year and I'll make this place a must-see to check out.
