I stand corrected. It was Magic Cube before it came to the U.S. so "Rubik's Cube" didn't exist before 1980.

Thanks everyone for the positive comments.

Spencer, it's all paint. I just put down tape of different widths and painted over them.

Just a clarification for those of you like myself who explore listings in cities based on cool house tours, West Hollywood and West LA are two different areas with different vibes.

My opinion,

You bought it to fit into your home and if you need to alter it by painting it, go for it. It's only paint! If you feel some guilt later or that you have offended the "Gods of Preserving Natural Wood", you can strip it and re-stain it. Then you can say that you restored it, they'll love that.

I definitely appreciate things that have stood for generations and been passed down but for now, that belongs to you and you should feel free to dress it up however you see fit.

A good idea but, if the recipe calls for Haagen Dazs Vanilla ice cream, why not just buy Haagen Dazs Rum Raisin ice cream save on rum and raisin?

Now that's what you call, "Creativity". Well done!

I loved so much of it. It has great character. I'm lusting after the kitchen, reminiscing over the Star Wars sheets I had as a kid and enjoying the mid-century vibe. Great job!

Absolutely love every part of it. So inspirational.

I got a 4. Not bad on an un-callobrated monitor in bad lighting. I'm going to take the test at home and see if the results are different.

Very fund and stylish place. I love the bedroom, especially the astro-turf. That's brilliant!
Also love his store, TINI(This Is Not Ikea).
