That's awesome! Forget the kids -- I want to play with it!

Can't do it. I've "solved" the problem by having just one set of sheets that I wash and immediately put back on the bed.

I too keep looking at rugs for my space because "they" say rugs pull together the room, define the space, etc, but I've resisted so far due to the cleaning factor. My concrete floors are soooo easy to clean without anything in the way. I do with the people upstairs from me had a few more rugs though to cut down on the noise (no one below me -- just the building garage).

My first apartment all on my own was a little studio around 400 sf or so. The building was built on a hill, and the entrance to my place was kind of down in a basement looking area with no natural light, but I had a large window and a patio that opened onto a grassy area on the other side of the hill, so the unit itself was filled with lots of light. The layout of that entry always made my mom nervous, but it never bothered me. Maybe it was just because I was young and stupid, but I still have fond memories.

I very rarely comment here at AT, but I just had to in this case. I am absolutely in love with your place. Fantastic windows, view and use of space. I love how you appear to have kept your bay area uncluttered with just the bar table to really preserve and be able to savor your view rather than feeling as though you have to fill it with "stuff". Just beautiful!

Bedroom is last for me as well. I think my problem is that the bed "clothes" I really like aren't practical for me. My dog sleeps on the bed, so I need something pretty durable and easy to toss in the washer. I guess I just haven't found anything suitable that is any better than what I already have yet. Now that I have recently moved into a studio where everything is on display at all times, I may need to step up the search for something nicer.

Though I love to read this site, I am by no means a cook (though I hope to change that someday), and I really had no interest in seeing the movie...until I read about it here. I just got back from the theater, and I loved it -- very funny and inspiring, though I doubt I'll be deboning any ducks anytime soon!

I like the table in the 2nd link above -- very cute!

It wouldn't really work for me, but I think it would be a unique piece for the right space.
