This is so cool. It's kinda like reverse-vandalism...it seems like you'd get the same thrill you'd get if you were doing something "wrong" - you throw it and run, looking over your shoulder - but it's constructive and good for the earth.

Totally looks like blood splatters all over the place...not that having this "decor" in ANY room makes any sense, but the BATHROOM has got to be the worst room possible. Bathroom Invasion: Red Spots \| Apartment Therapy New York Flag this comment	7/13/10 10:15 AM

@ AmmoniteInk: wait wait...not saying there shouldn't be a contract at ALL...to clarify, I was talking about the TYPE of contract. Of course you're going to have a contract that says you're an unpaid intern and how long you'll be there; that's not what I meant. I was talking about the type of contract the writer of the article was talking about, where the actual works you create while there are protected from being owned by the employer. Is that the kind of contract you have? (rhetorical question; not expecting you to answer that on the internet lol) What happens if you create a brilliant idea worth millions while on the job at your unpaid internship, and the company wants to claim it as theirs? That's what I meant by "hardballing your way into that type of contract seems unnecessary", because being an intern is much different from being an employee, where you might see such a contract put in place. I hope that makes more sense now. A Raw Deal For Inexperienced Designers \| Apartment Therapy New York Flag this comment	5/21/10 11:13 AM
I agree with the article that interns would benefit by changing the culture and making the business world swing in their favor, but this is a huge culture change. I wonder if the writer of the article knows that corporate CEOs get big bonuses... I'm sure that many of us have been "unpaid interns" before, probably when we were college students just looking for credits. If you're one of these, and you happen to stumble upon a million-dollar idea, it's usually best that you just keep it in your own portfolio instead of handing it over to your boss. Trying to hardball them into a contract seems unnecessary. If you do that, then you're looking for a JOB, not an internship, right?

Yeah, um...I gotta say the posts above are right on...it happens in virtually ALL fields. This reminds me of the music industry; you hear "produced by Timbaland or P Diddy or whoever", but in reality a lesser known person behind the scenes actually created the music. But I mean, c'mon...this is how the world works; you design something for a company, the big names take the credit while you get to put it on your resume and work your way up the ladder.

What a view! That's CHICAGO?! I never picture Chicago like that. Small Cool 2010: Elizabeth's High Rise View Small Division # 22 \| Apartment Therapy Chicago Flag this comment	4/20/10 11:38 AM
Thanks JV; sounds reasonable! I thought of that when I was in the Chesterfield phase. I was thinking, "sure, this is awesome NOW, but what happens when Mad Men is cancelled?" So I guess I'm on the right track. Another question I think I have to figure out myself is how to know what's "affordable" as far as sofas go. Is $3500 considered expensive by the middle-income crowd? $2000? Buy For The Home You Actually Live In \| Apartment Therapy Los Angeles Flag this comment	4/1/10 4:57 PM
I'm going absolutely CRAZY trying to decide on a sofa. I've gone from wanting the Avec from CB2, to wanting a Chesterfield, to wanting a Gus Spencer...I've gone from inexpensive to TOO expensive, and back again. Now I have sofa overload, and don't even know WHAT I want anymore! Ugh. Anymore tips on how to decide? I think my main problem is that I just moved into this loft that I'm renting, and since I don't have any other living room furniture to speak of, the style hasn't been determined yet. And I love everything! Buy For The Home You Actually Live In \| Apartment Therapy Los Angeles Flag this comment	4/1/10 4:19 PM

that's a horrible link. I'm not sure why that didn't work, but there should be a sign between the words "pole" and "mount". Sorry. 5 Small Space Wardrobe Storage Solutions from IKEA \| Apartment Therapy Chicago Flag this comment	4/1/10 3:43 PM
