Apartment Therapy DC | Good Questions: Warming Up This Living Room?

I have those exact same blinds, and probably window size, in my apartment. I HATE THEM! Sometimes I play the blinds like a harp but that's all they're good for.

IMO, the coffee table does not work with your other furniture.

I think any changes you make listed above will greatly improve what you have now.

I agree with Nesagwa. Don't put your money towards something you're not going to get back. That's just a bad investment.

On the other hand, if you're renting long term then I suppose you don't mind your $$ going down the drain. MAKEOVER!

HAHA, I love your dog! Looks nice. You might consider making the frame above your couch a dark espresso/black. It would look like your coffee table.. dark item floating on a white/creme background. Have you tried rearranging your furniture? If it was me, I'd have the seating facing out the window.

I'm in Dallas, TX. It is getting pretty cold here.. around 56F at nights. Still, my little motto is only I need to be warm not my furniture, so I wrap up. Plus, I'm being "green". =)


Apartment Therapy Los Angeles | Chilly? Warm Up At Night Without Turning On The Heat

Is the "Free Beer" sign your inspiration for the color scheme? The top creme sample on the wall looks good.

On a side note, I don't think the sign looks that good down there especially since it's not totally flush against the wall. Also, I'd suggest hanging something on the back wall of the bar to help break up the red. Something large, maybe a relief sculpture, that has about the same height of the black shelves would be killer.

I'm 20 and work from my apartment as a web designer/developer. It has been almost 5 months now and working in corporate America for nearly 2 years really makes me appreciate my decision to quit the "rat race". I believe that I speak for most people who work from home when I say the pros heavily outweigh the cons. Here are my pros and cons.

cons:
- not a steady income.
- sometimes, little daily socialization

pros:
- make more $$ working for myself.
- forces you to be more responsible
- devote more time/energy to exercising and eating healthier
- saving big time on the gas. I ride my bike everywhere too.
- enjoy the day(or night if you're an owl)! you only have one life to live, don't spend it in a carpeted-cube for 30 years!
- can have more hobbies and schedule your work around your day instead of the other way around.
- are able to go out more be with your friends
__
in my field:
- sharpen marketing skills
- complete creative control
- make own deadlines
- can work anywhere with Wifi.

I could go on and on...
