LOL.

Every time I see decanters like these I think of Catherine Chancellor from As The World Turns.

Nothing funnier than an overly-dramatic, drunk, rich lady in a mumu.

I've often wondered why the actual laptop couldn't be made out of ceramics.

This a really great space.

First of all, the wall next to the bed isn't awkward at all. I have an aversion to the Kelly Wearstler school, so this is what I would do with $120:

1. Organize, clean, and de-clutter. If possible, pull all furniture out while reconsidering furniture placement (see below). This is totally free and feels fabulous!

2. Replace those dark drapes with a single wooden blind or shear roller blind (with a neutral linen look). Please be sure it fits INSIDE the window frame, if possible. These can be found cheaply at Lowe's...just look!

3. A neutral sisal rug lighter than the painted floor, or even something industrial, would help pull the room together.

4. Stain or paint the bedside tables a warm brown.

5. Play with furniture placement and lighting!!! Could you place the head of the bed between the closets?

Does Lowe's have bedding? If so, invest.

Again - it's a great space.

Have fun!

If I'm not mistaken, this apartment was used in Woody Allen's movie: Melinda and Melinda.

I was the piano player's place...

Another thing: the Midwest rocks.

If it weren't for MICHIGAN which is located in the MIDWEST, all you pretentious Mid Century furniture snobs wouldn't have anything to covet.

Sid78: "and, you know, most trendoid crafty coastal types are middle Americans who wanted to prove they were destined for "better" things." BRILLIANT!

KTG: Right on!

Maxwell: You really need to keep yourself and your "staff" in order. How can you NOT KNOW that a huge part of your readership is NOT located on either coast??????

Living in NYC of L.A. and having a pretentious hyphenated name doesn't qualify you to be a design critic.

Absolutely not.

I'm a home brewer, and there's nothing better than that first sip of coffee in the morning while standing in my kitchen.

I don't know what it is, but that feeling just can't be duplicated in a coffee house.

Oh, and madsarah: What kind of person donates to the White House China Fund?

They should have gone with a nice boxed set from Target.

Or at least gone with some cool Eva Zeisel.

This is just one more "F*ck You, Amurikuh!" from the Bush clan.

I'm also really tired of American hipster bloggers using the Queen's English:

"Whilst perusing the latest sublime designs of my favourite Austin clothier..."

So gross and affected.

Do we know this poster was well received during WWII?

Our reactions could be exactly the same now as then.

Whose to say British citizens weren't sick to death of seeing that thing plastered on every available surface?

I guess the designer would have to be American, huh?

I'm fairly certain Terrance Conran could achieve the look I'd like to see.

If not Mr. Conran, I'd have to say Darryl Carter as well.
