I am pretty sure I know how this this "family of 3" can live in a small but beautiful maintained apartment....

They have building amenities, that at least 75% of NYC dwelling families don't have, such as a "common outdoor recreation area" with seating and grilling. I am also going out on a limb here and wondering if there is not some "summer/weekend home", where when things get too crowded, or hairy, the "grownups" can retreat.

No envy or snark here, but I wish that AT would feature some real childproof/pet proof apartments by average NYC dwellers who don't have the luxury of delaying the apartment wear and tear that comes from having children who don't have 24/7 access to a "common grounds areas" or "summer/weekend home" retreat.

Some of the furnishings look so spindly here, such as the chair and pillows under the TV, that I doubt a family without access to multiple maids, "common recreation areas" and a summer/weekend home, could maintain such a place.

AT, please inspire the rest of us.

I like dark gloomy places

The posters, the graphics on the bed frame, and the graphic wallpaper all gave the unfinished loft a great arty kick. I like how your place looks like you LIVE there. Its not my style but I gave you a cool.

The kitchen back splash is pretty!

Beautiful like a painting or a snowflake: ie something you cannot touch without damaging. I can't imagine someone actually living here, and putting their feet upon the couch, leaving their toothbrush out by accident or draping their overcoat on a chair.

Oh my! everything is on the floor. That reminds me of the time when I was in college and we used bean bag chairs and futon mattresses on the floor because we couldnt afford furniture. Ahhh.. I miss my college days, but not the back pain from sleeping on the floor.

everything seems randomly placed. eh

I loved the details! I gave you a "cool" for the test tube spice rack and the unique chandelier. I want that spice rack! You need more photos, especially of your living room. Great potential, but I'd love to see more.

Not my bag BUT I voted "cool". I like the symmetry, the coordination of objects and furniture, and the color palate. The place looked lived in but beautifully designed. I love it.

Okay. Not my bag. I am not sure about all the "found objects d' art". Is there a reason why the objects are so prominently featured, but the bedroom or bathroom is not?
