I will now forever be in love with that tetris bookcase. And $3500 - 7000?? Unrequited love.

To appeal to his more minimalist dynamic, I'd make sure that whatever you choose you go with a look that polished.

Add some color, some texture, whatever, but keep it consistent throughout. Minimalist design doesn't have to be uncomfortable - just understated and clean.

Oooh.. I love the curio cabinet one!! But definitely not the price tag. Anyone know of anything similar for a much cost?

I really support the idea of a bed - however, with such a small place, I might opt for something that you wouldn't mind people sitting on - like this daybed I'm in love with at West Elm: http://bit.ly/b3clLD

You could easily go with something like that a couple comfy chairs (or one of those itty-bitty loveseats some stores are selling now) and add a desk too. But I'm big on desks, so maybe a little dining table?

@berryblu - I'd love to check out what you have! My partner and I just moved locations and it's been a slow process of outfitting our tiny tiny capitol hill basement.

We're definitely still in need of a lot. My biggest challenge is patience - I always just want to fill up the space. I am trying to learn not to just buy whatever fits, and instead take the time to pick items that really speak to our asthetic.
