Sarah in Nola,
We used the Nexus Brown Black cabinet line from Ikea. Carrera Marble was what we wanted, but it was out of our reach; we went with a less expensive white marble. Unfortunately I don't remember the name.

ten_eighteen,

I made the floating dressing table out of some walnut plywood, and brackets from rakks.com.

The console table is actually our old dining table from Ikea that we cut in half and painted.

Thanks for the questions.

Jacob

rachelrachel - the long red shelving unit is actually a CD rack turned horizontal (available from topdeq.com, but no longer in red).

brynhild - the felt ottomans are sandwiched 1/2" layers of industrial felt that I got from Booth Felt (before they moved to NH) for free from their discard pile; they were waste from a die cut job. I fastened them together with a tagging gun and heavy duty fabric barbs.

Owner here:

Thank you everyone for your supportive comments.

There seems to be a lot if interest in the bedside table that I made. The base is from a drum stool, and the top is 3 layers of 3/4" plywood glued together and cut at an angle, dyed green with an aniline dye, and clearcoated.

Selena asked about the poster hanger for the Ork Chicago; check out posterhanger.com.

Is it just me, or are all of these sofas hideous?

We have honeycomb blinds from Smith Noble in every room of our place. They look great, plus keep the cold out during the winter and the heat out during the summer. Much cheaper than getting new windows!

They could be for a linear incandescent with a S14S base.
