I would love to try this! We are constantly suffering from numbing arms and shoulder pains when cuddling, and that's the main reason we end up going our separate ways during the night.


Would You Buy A Cuddle Mattress?

Agreed! Shade structures, trees, umbrellas, something, or we'd all be frying like bacon out there... :)

Love the idea though. Has anybody been out to the barge pool yet? that's been around for a few years now... It's kind of the same thing!

Nicole, please tell me about your colorful tin can for art storage!

I got the same one more than 10 years ago in Germany and seeing that in your apartment stopped me dead in my tracks! I never expected to see another one and it has a huge amount of sentimental value to me... so weird...

WHOA! NICOLE, I was stopped in my tracks when I saw your colorful tin can where you store your art supplies. I HAVE THE SAME ONE and got it in Germany more than 10 years ago.

where did you get yours? I'm very curious, as it's a very sentimental and special thing I've held on to, and never expected to see another one!

please let me know if you read this.

lovely apartment...

Andrea

I have a door dillemma:

We ordered these hot doorhandles from the UK, only to find out the diameter of handles there is smaller than here. Our door's hole is too big. We either need a new door, or some way to attache the handle to the large hole.

Does anyone have recommendations for a trusty handyman, or locksmith that would be able to address this issue?

thanks!!!!

The floating staircase rule sucks! Monika1 is right, how many people get hurt on something like that? So much for beautiful, minimalistic staircase design...

Apartment Therapy New York | NY Good Questions: Recommendations for a Charcoal Gray Paint?
5/16/08 9:29 AM

One great trick I learned from a friend is to take a picture of that old t-shirt, crazy mug, or whatever the item is you can't let go. Keep the picture for memory's sake and get rid of the item!

It has worked well for me so far, and makes the parting process less painful...

Am I the only one that thinks the place looks a bit cluttered?

It's very cute though!

How about painting the inside of the nook a charcoal grey (artists grey from Ralph Lauren is hot!), or chocolate brown.

A really dark color would be a nice dramatic backdrop for either one big frame, or a group. I see you have recessed lights above, and that will highlight that setting even better!

I look at the lovely green Algae wall sculpture by Bouroullec (gotta love the moma store!) against a white wall and a lovely white floor lamp. It's peaceful, pretty and is a total pleasure to be the first thing you see when you open your eyes....

Those are great! Have you guys also seen the similar racks at Chiasso? they have them in clear acrylic and metal... I've been thinking about putting one up, but can't figure out where!

Apartment Therapy Los Angeles | LA Good Questions: Where can I get this wine rack?
12/5/07 8:36 AM

Being in NYC, I don't mind loud noise until 11, 11:30 pm on weeknights. Weekend should be fair game, unless it's a truly insane loud party.

You'd not believe the amount of blasting car stereos we get past our window day and night! How do those drivers still have any hearing left???

I recall having the cops called on us in the east village once while we were watching a comedy at 10pm on a Friday night. (it was not the tv sound, but the laughter that got to the neighbors, i think...) Can you BELIEVE that?

I totally agree! I have a dark grey on one wall of my bedroom that made it so dramatic and sensual and just love it! I just might have to try this in the bathroom as well... ;)
