It works amazingly well! I've been doing this for the last couple of years (and I think it was an AT post that started it all off). It's so much easier to find things, and put them away. Big improvement in my house anyway...

What's wrong with 'through the ringer'?

#4 looks like a bit like a shop.

Indy Jeffrey, I wonder how valuable the PR for someone like Brian would be - I imagine the AT audience, being firm DIY-ers, wouldn't readily hire an interior designer.

I agree though, it would be good to know AT's position on endorsements in general.

Much better, it's really nice and bright now. Thanks for sharing.

It's absolutely gorgeous - this is what my home will look like when I grow up :)
Also, it really reminds me of Frasier's apartment on the show - anyone else?

OK so you like where you live, and that's lovely.

But do you really wake up in the morning, look around and think "yeah, this apartment really is the bees knees, you know what, we should enter some sort of interior design competition" and high-five each other?

You've done nothing that makes me think that was your intention. And the pictures also aren't the best quality. I just don't believe that you've really tried.

But you know what, all this feedback gives you something to work on for next year - come back and wow us! Or don't. But don't stop loving where you live - because that's the whole point of any of this.

Just putting in another vote for AT Europe; As a daily AT reader living in London, it is sometimes frustrating not to have access to a lot of the stores & products featured. Start the auditions now please!

It's really impressive. But to me, what stands out about this is the quality of the styling and the photos - they are very clearly professionally done.

And that's perhaps what people are reacting to, in the 'showroom' comments. Not that it's a bad thing, but I think we're just conditioned to seeing more real homes in the AT contests...

Is it just me, or have there have been sooo many posts on this subject recently? I think the general consensus is that people like books, they broadly don't like to colour-code them (although some are fond of this look), and they definitely don't like them concealed, covered, turned back to front, or have their book-like nature subverted in any way. Can we all agree on this?
