If you need to buy not-imported furniture just buy reused-recycled. Also, think of all the developing countries that rely on exporting goods to America to feed their own people. The strength of America is in innovation/software/cutting edge services, not in the furniture industry. The workforce needs to go back to college and get a degree in technology, we don't need artisans.

yes, I'm working on an all white bedroom but is not as easy as it seems. Now the result is a really bland room. I'll try adding some texture, but it is hard!

Loving the rock on the Domino Book =)

Nice, I agree, is a great collection of souvenirs, feels very eclectic. However, there's a lot that needs to be done, I also think that it needs to be further edited, the pillow over the radiator seems like a fire hazard to me, the rug in the kitchen is a germ magnet...
...Oh, everyone's a critic, you have a great place, congrats!!

You guys are really an inspiration for us renters. I'm a bit mad at my Ikea apartment right now...

Amazing! love that grey on the walls..sigh

Amazing! Finally a post that I love in AT DC. Gives me hope, it just might be possible to have an beautifullt decorated rental in DC after all!
Oh, and I love the vintage suitcases

ColOOOOmbia...God...

Your wall art over the couch is very inspiring. I love what you've done with the place.
Pay no attention to those AT haters, I also live in DC in a boxy "no bones or architectural structure" apartment, I also rent, so finding places like yours give me hope that I can have a nicely decorated place with lots of personality too.

I wouldn't do it, so many reasons...
