Yokie's Profile

Love those matching lamps in the lounge. The lamps in the bedroom complement the height of the canopy nicely!

I'm a fan of their loose teas especially the Assam.

Love it. My favorite is the art work. Surprised I didn't see any vintage Seydou Keita photos. Great job.

Ha ha, you all have Macs. The new macbook is pure design inspiration.

Barkeeper's friend! Will make it look like new.

Hi everyone. It’s Yokie. Thanks for your comments and thanks to Rachael for a nice write up! I’d like to respond to some of your comments:

Window treatments: these are top-down bottom-up light filtering shades from Smith and Noble. In the photo, they have been adjusted to only cover the bottom half of the window, letting light in from the top.

Console table: Portica w/ glass top from Room and Board. This table is well priced and comes in a wide range of custom sizes. Mine is 32x8 29h to fit my small corner landing strip.

Soundproofing: The contractor used Thermabat which is sound deadening (not sound proofing) fibrous material. A new frame was built over the existing wall and padded with the Thermabat, then covered with dry wall.

Boxspring: I know it’s exposed in the photo but it was subsequently covered with a fitted sheet and looks much better. Thanks for the tip though.

Roomba: I cannot say enough about this fantastic appliance! Cleans up cat hair, kitty litter, and crumbs in a snap.

Kitty: She enjoyed being the star of the housetour but the cover shot of her squatting over the bed was probably not the most flattering.

Thanks Rachael!

Well done!

Let's see more photos from that apartment!

Nice nursery. Love the rocker and the fabric on the crib.
