I did my fiction by color at my last apartment, which drove my roommate batty but made me smile. I will probably do that again here, when I finish assembling my bookcases (homemade built-ins are great in theory, but it's been months and they need to just be done already...). My non-fiction will be by genre, at least sort of, but mostly it'll be arranged the way I used to arrange my CDs: my association. If this reminds me of this other thing, then they will naturally go beside one another...

This also irks other people, but it's how my brain works and therefore couldn't be better for me. It means things are sort of sorted by genre, but the genres melt together in a way that seems logical to me.


9 Ways to Organize Books: Which Is Your Style?

I agree with @Devyn. Of my personal accounts, there is my main one, which is for my online username, then one which is Real Full Name at gmail, one for spam, and one for semi-official things which uses a different handle than my goofing-on-the-internet id but not my actual full legal name. I also have an old yahoo of my username, which mostly collates spam and maybe could be purged now, but that's neither here nor there. I find it very important to keep separate ones for my private internet use (hi, AT) and my two distinct careers.

That said, they all aggregate to my main account so I don't miss things, because I certainly don't keep track of that many web-based accounts the long way!

I swear that something about the angle of the Eames chair in the first pic made me think someone had done a Wall-E mod of their Eames chair. My brain promptly broke.

But yes, fun as I'm sure this was to compile, I agree with Taureg.

It looks like a mocha with reddish undertones to me - so, brown.

I'm really sad you didn't have an option for people who don't like it (or don't like it as much as others seem to) - I've been wondering what percentage of us are on here, given how much Apartment Therapy focuses on it!

I'm with markbright, except I'd like to see some space given to Arts & Crafts more than Mission... but honestly more than anything I'd like to see more variety! I have somewhat eclectic taste and every once in a while there's a one-off post about a more interesting or new-to-me style that I'd love to see explored in more depth.
