ElaneB I think you're talking about Top Design? Design Star is an HGTV thang

Go to flea markets, thrift stores and antique shops. You'll get the same effect while saving $$ and the environment!

I'm sorry people but sometimes you go too far with the "keep the wood" thing. Those things were way too overpowering and looked like shiny plywood.

Those cats are cracking me up! What little lovebugs/camera whores:D

Adorable place!

MWesdock - I think travislessness was referring to the picture.

I guess this is a good idea for someone who doesn't like stuff and isn't claustrophobic. Being the opposite of both those things...I would not dig living there. Also, I think it could be executed better, I mean it's one thing to not have a lot of things, but it's another to be pretty much devoid of character.

Yellow or white tulips. They make the room bright without being too frilly/girly

There seems to be a very similar color between the 2 duvets - that tan shade (though yours might be more mauve, it's a little hard to tell). So something in a neutral camel or the like might work well.

I'm sorry but I'm sick of people either saying they don't like it while adding NO constructive criticism/elaboration, or that they love it blindly just to be nice and counteract the negative comments. The reason comments are allowed is to give opinions...I actually enjoy reading what people don't like about a space because usually there are more than a few people that agree. This helps me understand how to better arrange my space to a degree, and it's also interesting to see how many people share my design aesthetic. Similarly, hearing what people do like about an apartment or house does the same job....I really don't see what the big deal is. If I posted my place, I would want honest and hopefully detailed feedback!

I love the silhouette wall and Fornasetti plates.

ladymantle - I kinda like the mix of midcentury and early 20th/late 19th century details (I think that's what you didn't like?). I think it makes the place look comfortable but still elegant. I especially love the feel of the living room. I guess to each his own! :)
