My only regret about my kitchen renovation was the tile I picked for the floor. When I picked the tile it was in a showroom based on a cabinet door I brought with me and a small square of the granite I picked. It looked great in the show room and when it was first laid on the floor, but in year 2 I struggle with it looking filthy by the end of the week. My advice is for flooring, spend a little more then you'd like to be sure you get something that not only looks great, but is durable and low maintenance. My parents used a higher end travertine and it literally never looks dirty. My porcelain tile (which was in my minimal budget) is a constant hassle!

I did a more "apartment sized" version of something like this recently. I kept my coat hooks off of it.

Wow after seeing those pictures it makes me think I need some color in my bathroom.

I just posted pictures of my bathroom reno last night on my blog:

Not really sure what color would go well with my tile and vanity. I painted everything white for now.

Yeah the subwoofer sticks out. I hid mine under an end table next to the couch. I'm sure acoustically it is not ideal, but with a small space sometimes you have to improvise. I have some pictures of my setup here:
