Bredlo's Profile

I'm with JMarsh, the watch in a shadowbox frame is genius. I have my grandfather's watch and this would be a phenomenal way to solve not wearing it... but also not keeping it in a drawer. Thanks Joan and Matt for that!

Grado made the best headphones I ever listened to. They also broke on me twice (entire ear piece and adjusting post falling off) just using them with regular handling.

Two different pairs bought almost 10 years apart? It shouldn't happen.

@archersam, the architect probably would've worn more of a designer's hat for this one - sourcing the window hardware, designing the shelf above the driver, laying out the bathroom, designing the stool that tucks under the desk, and adding the faux ribs to the ceiling for a semi-nautical feel.

Just a guess.

Just pretend it's from 'Fartin' & Fun' magazine... and enjoy the photos. Cripes.

Higher... or hire?

I tend to agree with most of these comments; I've definitely seen better use of small space, and there seems to be a mountain of empirical evidence in this field that Mr. Kennedy could've come up with an even better space in version 1.0. I didn't see much in the way of dual-functioning furniture... other than the lowering table, which has been used by Airstream and other RV manufacturers for 70+ years.

Seems like this kind of project should've yielded some really cool solutions - instead, it's biggest cool factors seems to be hidden kitchen appliances and a frosted pocket door. Hm.

I love antiques - the older, wood-ier, patinated the better. But if I'm spending 7-8 hours a day sitting in it? Give me the best that modern technology can come up with.

I've enjoyed my Aeron for over 10 years. Does it match our century-old, oak mission style partner's desk? Nope. But I have no plans to give up either of 'em.

So, Scots are increasingly hutting - even as its popularity simultaneously decreases.

Sounds like fun, but would I be joining a hot trend... or trying to save a dying tradition? : )~

Our back screen door is attached to the frame via 2 black, steel triangle-shaped brackets. The spare sits on the top bracket, secured by with black electrical tape.

Virtually invisible.

Candice Olson and Sarah Richardson are the only designers worth watching, in my opinion.

I've looked closely at the paint jobs and cabinetry work on those other shows... and it's pretty shoddy.

They're aiming for a flashy "after" shot: swooping around... set to techno music... and once all those TV lights and camera crews are gone, I'll bet 9 our of 10 homeowners are disappointed.
