What the heck is I Saloni and why do those posts have zero content other than an image and maybe one line of text?

All I can say is one word. Envy. Such a marvelous location and I love what you've done with it. Envy :)

I love that you showed a photo of the space at work. On first glance, I saw the last pic (the photographer shot) and thought "You only get to post 5 photos. Why waste one on THIS?" ...and then I realized how much it made perfect sense. It shows the space to be more that just a place to relax. Marvelous job!

Those! Scrabble! Tiles! Are! Awesome!
What a really neat idea.

That desk is ridiculously cool and so unique. Your space really shows a sense of style. Well done!

Absolutely love it - especially in a door that is only occasionally opened, or a door whose edge is mostly out of view. A bathroom door, especially. Or a pantry. What a neat little bit of unexpected color.

The way to get the most money when selling your iPad is to sell it on craigslist in the days before Apple holds its media event to officially announce a new model. I went without an iPad for 16 days, but I got more for my used iPad 2 than the identical iPad 2 sells for today, which means it didn't cost me much at all to upgrade to the new iPad.

This post cracks me up. Even Apartment Therapy has succumbed to the McMansion of America. I can't believe a THOUSAND square feet is considered small HERE these days.

I bought THE most amazing metal chess set at CANOE. The owner is a really nice guy - you're almost guaranteed to see him there.

The tree decals are such an excellent touch!

All it would take is some sort of hinge to make this idea phenomenal. A hinge or arm that pivots the TV forward and upward, and clicks into place. Otherwise, how could this height possibly be appropriate? Anything between the couch and the TV is blocking whatever you're watching. A bowl of popcorn on the coffee table, for example. That'll block the view of the movie you're watching.

...but if you don't have a fireplace and don't watch THAT much TV, there's a phenomenal idea here...

Buy a fake mantle/ Install some sort of arm with a pivot and you can hide the TV. Then again, that's a lot of work, especially when there are better ways to hide a TV.

"That one" being the bed in the first image


What's at the Foot of Your Bed?

Nothing. I own a bed similar to that one and I have curtains hanging from it.

I wish more people included themselves in a photo in their house tours. It's so nice to see who lives there. That's what a home is all about, right? RIGHT! :)

Love that chalkboard one. I've always wondered what that sort of thing would look like in person. I suppose the trick is to have enough black in the kitchen already to make the look work. It always seems to pop in pics.

AT: you folks should feature Delia sometime in your modern wine racks (or beds, really). I own their Wine Spine, and I get compliments on it just about every time someone first sees it.

Love those dark painted accent walls. Actually, there's a lot here that I enjoy. Well done! And the pet names are FANTASTIC.

This is the best wine rack I've ever seen:
The Wine Spine, by Delia.

I own it, in fact. It holds 13 bottles, it takes up very little floor space, and it's a work of art!

I wish that second picture was actually a picture instead of a drawing. We only get one shot of the whole bed and it's at a wacky angle, so it's hard to tell what the bed really looks like.

That being said... this bed looks superb! I'm so surprised there aren't more beds like it. Built-in under-bed storage seems like a common sense idea for small space living. Yeah, I know one can just buy boxes or containers to slide under the bed, but that tends to look trashy. This bed looks a million times better.
