You might want to think about an L-shaped couch or similar couch with integral chaise. Add a pair of light sidechairs for additional guests. Float the couch in the middle of the room with the backs facing the Kitchen island and the Bedroom door. Place the TV against the long wall across from the Bedroom door like others have said. Place the long side of your existing desk along the back of the couch across from the Bedroom door and the short end facing the windows. I'd prefer a different long desk instead of the L shape but if its something you already have and *need* then that's my best solution.

AT how about some cardinal directions so we can talk about a plan drawing more effectively.

I guess this post has digressed from discussing the late 2009 iMacs to discussing the attraction unpluggd has with choosing to feature Apple centered products/solutions. How a bout a reality check people, how many readers have an iPod, an iPhone, or Apple computer? I'm guessing a pretty significant majority. I'm sure they're using some analytics as to what OS their readers are sporting. Let's see a poll as to who's angry about seeing Apple products.

I'll be moving in two weeks and my wife and I will be trying to reduce as much as we can to make the trip a bit easier. That means books and magazines we don't look at anymore are going to the local thrift store. We have lots of papers and receipts tucked away that we'll need to sort through as well. We have a two room apartment where we live now but we never really go into that room, its a storage haven. We have a pull-out love seat for when guests come and we'll be keeping that and trying to find a one bedroom with enough room for a desk at our next place.

Something else we removed a few months ago were paper towels. We had them on a shopping list as well as some car care items for our new vehicle. When we were in the automotive department we saw a variety pack of microfiber clothes that were super cheap. We've been really happy with them so far. They scrub a lot better than the paper towels anyway and we use them for everything that we would have used the disposable product for anyway. Then hand wash them out or toss 'em in the laundry. They're great!

My wife and I are in the same process. I looked into the all in one cordless phones which have integrated Skype (no computer needed), but their cost and technical issues made me think twice. I really wanted something that didn't require tethering to a computer. Has anyone had any luck with bluetooth dongles and headsets or the Callpod Drone/Dragon combination?

Original is the Mart Stam design, my office has the knockoff version available from Eurway.com in our conference room.

The Breuer Design lacks the armrests, a common misconception.

In the interest of the safety of the members of AT and yourself, I would strongly recommend not painting the brick, beams, and floor. Perhaps a move is in order instead; preferably to a place that doesn't already encompass a great balance of tones and texture?

I've always had the same ambition with using laminate flooring. I think it would be a great DIY project.

Pick me! Pick me! I'm obsessed with the Eames' but too poor to be a proud owner :'(
