From the seven interior pictures alone, I feel most of the furnishings are too disproportionate - both to the room they're in and their surroundings. Although the pieces are light and airy, the rooms all look cramped and awkward. Of course these are photos, and I'm not sure how it feels to actually experience the house. But then again, that's not what these house tours are about.

And it's a great collection, of course, but that's another thing these house tours are not about.

confirm i meant... but at this hour, affirm does sound better

I've used the flat bar stock MikeT mentioned for specifically this purpose, tho I had to drill my own holes. They let me do it at the neighborhood hardware store so I didn't have to buy metal drill bits.

And on a technical note, for an x-style brace to work, it does not need to be drilled in the middle (where the Ikea ones are usually connected). I'd stay away from doing so since it can be error prone if it's not exact.

Bar Keeper's Friend, as I found out, truly is a friend for bartenders with metal countertops, except at 4am the arm workout can be a bit much. It should be noted that it can be mildly abrasive, but sinks shouldn't matter a bit. If scrubbed long enough it will leave an amazing polish.

I worked at CB2 three years ago for a few months with the intentions of scooping up some furntiture on the cheap (which I did) while breaking the monotony of working from home all day. I worked with Vance quite regularly and I'd have to say that he definitely wasn't showing any animosity toward the other designer. He just knows what works, and when it doesn't, he spots it immediately.

And to mojo, your post I just can't comprehend. If you negate everything you wrote, it makes sense. But I think they made it abundantly clear that it was sponsored. And also, the point that they were working around only 1 vintage piece!
