yes, bought mine @ home depot... about $25 each, methinks... a bit jinky (less sturdy) compared to others, but they do look nice.

we just had our silestone countertops installed... couldn't be happier. we like the terrazzo-like look

i can't believe no one's mentioned ikea's malm yet. (yep, that's what i was thinking -- malm.. we have one in the guest room and it doesn't get much use... and hopefully nothing aerobic)

imho, as of late (and in SF), thrift stores are either picked over or the ebay-phenom has effected the quality if it's intake. we used to find boss vintage stuff in the 90s, but today, the schwinns...

i think the first sentence in the post should have a period at the end of the sentence, not a comma.

we went on en eichler tour this weekend and someone abutted a shelving unit and arranged the shelves to frame the AC (then put stuff in front of it when not in use)...

correction: AT indeed has a well-crafted mission statement... link is a bit hidden toward the bottom of the page: http://www.apar...

unfortunately the last half-dozen posts veer drastically from views on design, spaces, etc. and veer instead toward personal slander... which violates AT's terms of use (both the spirit and letter)...

ikea cabs use blum hinges and doors -- some of the best quality on the market and used by much higher-end lines (studio becker, for one). the ikea-part comes in with the melamine frames and fronts....

barb... your space is worlds apart from this one from a "principles of design" standpoint. your spot demonstrates a good use of balance, scale, contrast, harmony and materiality... this is complete...

i'd add that people expect -- when coming to any editorial source -- to have a consistent, curated point-of-view of the highest possible caliber. this is what differentiates cottage-living from met...

these products will definitely help with vibration -- which often equates to noise issues... we've used many similar products to soundproof our home (drywall, "green glue", etc). however, it's a bi...

wow. patterns are a mess, scale is off, materials give off a pastiche-y cheap feel (lillian vernon meets the bombay company) -- not to mention the entire place feels outdated, cluttered and devoid ...

our 1963 VW bug is parked in the garage of our 1963 eichler... ironically, it's a coincidence as we had the car before the house.

well... we actually happen to like louie (the dog) and find lynne a charm. as far as the prices and styles, it's a personal thing... we find the prices to be very competitive (and 70s style is defi...

some of the most effective things people can't/aren't willing to do in a rental, like installing carpeting, re-walling with sound-proof drywall (quietrock brand), installing new, double-pane/vinyl ...

funny. we have one of these hanging in our (graphic design) office. i pointed out that the type weights (and x-heights) in "september" are completely crazy... it now drives our admin nuts. funny.

reduce. reuse. recycle. re-post?

re: jmorey... while not archival, painting this on masonite would be a good, non-curl bet (and available in 4X8 sheets)... doing it on 1/2 or 3/4in plywood (or MDF) would provide a self-hanging pie...

is this an ad disguised as content...?
