I live in a condo with white walls, very light color flooring, and mostly white furniture and accessories. Most of the time I don't even notice that it is white, the space just feels very open and bright. Do keep in mind that these photographs do not accurately capture the mood and brightness of a white space. Obviously white balance and brightness settings are turned up to max on these photos, so in real life it would not be so "blinding" as some have pointed out.

Just imagine a modern museum, everything is mostly white except for the artwork. It makes a space feel more quiet and calming, and from my experience, it's a lot easier to upkeep than spaces with dark walls, flooring and furniture, which show every little bit of dust.

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but the countertops look like quartz.

YES Sharpies are amazing for just about everything. Also I feel like the walkie talkies would be kind of excessive unless you are moving an entire warehouse of stuff...

So swoon worthy! I have always dreamed of owning a mixed-use building where I would occupy the penthouse. This is perfect.

I agree with piccola. Some of the pieces are very unique and interesting, I also love the artwork used throughout but the entire place feels TOO retro, right down to the outdated kitchen. With over 5,000 sq. ft of space, the place somehow seems so jam-packed that it actually gives the illusion of smaller and crowded spaces. I do appreciate their dedication to a specific style though, and they certainly carried the retro look out to a T.

@JonasKC ah I should've been more specific it is the white vanity in picture 48, it is a vanity I assume?

Great job with the apartment! You managed to make it feel light and airy despite the limited space. Love that picture of the hallway, ahd that electric blue wall!
