The sunburst clock I found eBay. Do a search for sunburst clock on ebay and you should get many different results - including some vintage, and some new. Ricardo's Little Details Small Cool Contest |

Hey guys - the apt featured in the pic for this article is mine :) For those of you who asked what paint color was used - it's called "Fashion Gray" by Behr paint. You can find it at Home Depot. Size Doesn't Matter: The Benefits of Living Small Cool |

Thanks, INDIGOSAILOR. Not sure what you mean by "how practical is it if there is no living area in what is a decent amount of space?" The living area - if you will - is defined in the space near the lower half of the main room; just look for the sofa ;-) In keeping with a MCM aesthetic by utilizing an open floor plan, there's no need to interupt the exisiting flow in the space. Less is more, right? If you'll remember, the bench at the foot of my bed not only provides extra seating, but also doubles as a coffee table when used that way. I also have a great little set of collapsible side tables I can bring out as well when I have a group of people over. The practicality is evident from any angle :) Ricardo's Little Details Small Cool Contest |

@MRSEAN2K and @STATIONERYFIEND - I bought the desk from a guy who no longer wanted it in his house. He couldn't remember where he got it from since it was so long ago. There isn't a label or a tag I could find but it's in flawless condition. There's also a book shelf built into it on the left hand side :) Looks sort of art deco-ish from head-on too Ricardo's Little Details Small Cool Contest |

@ AKAY - the bench/table is normally referred to as a "slat bench" and associated with Danish Modern design. Ricardo's Little Details Small Cool Contest |

Wow- thanks so much for all the great comments!!! :-) For those of you wondering about the paint color I used - it's called "Fashion Gray" by BEHR paint. You can find it at Home Depot. The "blanket / bedspread" was a great find I got on eBay. It was actually just a huge roll of unused vintage chenille fabric. I liked the shagginess of it and thought it'd make a cool blanket.
