Mark, I love your articles/posts on color and the use of paint. Very inspiring. Thanks! Tara in San Francisco.

I really like the all-white kitchen/London scullery look. Does that make me so very unoriginal? *sigh*

Ha! bepsf you've got it right...I want to see a big round mirror of some sort right there. Maybe a sunburst mirror? Empty space like that makes me nervous....I'm weird, I guess.

er, "liked this entry" not 'like this entry last year'. Although, I still like it, so maybe that's okay... too tired today.

I'm so glad! I really like this entry last year. Very refined. Look forward to seeing it in print. :)

This is one of my favorite apartments of all time. I have it marked in my "Apartment Living" book and am constantly referring back to it for inspiration. One day, one day...

When I think of the "Small, Cool" contest, this is what comes to mind. A creative use of space, a cohesive design, and overall a home that really has personality. Nice.

Looks great! The new layout really works well.

This apartment makes me think of the movie "Solaris" kind of space-age-y but ultimately a bit too "cold" for my own tastes. I think the panels around the bed are pretty groovy and I do like the cle...

I was really digging this piece until I went to Ikea to check it out in person. Maybe they didn't assemble it well, but it was really flimsy feeling. Also, the yellow paint (veneer?) wasn't even in...

This makes me want to move out of San Francisco, have kids, get a yellow lab and create a home/house just like this. I love your home. :)

I agree 100% with Julianna. Leave everything as is, make do for a while, and also start looking for your next home. BUT, if it were my house, I'd say "oh what the hell" and start painting (and prob...

I generally prefer more modern design (a la Living Etc.), but for some reason I really like this kitchen, give or take a few items. I think it's perfect for a French-Caribbean house in Missisippi -...

This is Tara! Thanks for the post/comments. Funny, but my kitchen looks different now--the doors have been covered in a wood grain paper (similar to bamboo) and the blue dishes and paper have been ...

I'm in love...with the closet. Arthur, you're cute, too. ;)

Oh, and to answer your question spaceagemouse, yes, they are legit. (I've read of companies that take your money and then never ship your item. Not the case with Sphere Designs. My boyfriend ordere...

Well, I bought a sofa from them about 2 years ago. (This was before they posted 100 times a day on Craigslist.) It's a family owned business and they were really nice. I bought a floor model and go...

I'm so glad this house was featured on AT. I check your blog (almost) daily. Such a great space--well done.

I. Love. This. Apartment. 'nuff said.

This is a VERY clever idea. Your bedroom looks very restful--well done!
