What a heart warming story. Thanks for sharing. I felt like I was right there when you wrote how she said, "I looooooooooove your house." Really nice and definitely something to be proud of.

Previously, I have laid artwork out in Illustrator (to proportion) then, when I liked layout, I cut out/pasted newspaper to size and put them up on the wall. Easy, however, this was with all black and white photography that matched. It wasn't anything with different styles or different colors, etc.

I am really enjoying these cowhide comments.

Because we all know that the meat inside the cow was just tossed. Only the hide was saved. For this very apartment. Only.

Red walls

Anybody know how much it cost to rent this place out?

The bed is not my taste, but #4 is an amazing combination. Everything works together so well. And it's so Mad Men. I would be proud to say I had decorated that space.

Thanks, AT, for including something that's not your norm.

There are many comments here on how "this is not my style but I like it regardless." Except for the bright harlot red, this looks like it could be a Martha Stewart cousin. Mitch, you've done a great job using design that is "untraditional" in today's world for your modern house and giving it your own look.

"What kind of guests are people inviting that haven't been to their house before?"

I don't invite most people to my house on a regular basis. I can have fairly close friends who have only been over once or twice. Just the way I am.

My comments aren't original, but here goes. . .

Really nice place. Feels comfortable right away. Not pretentious. Love it.

You are dead on with the color of the dining room. So beachy. Very Californian.

Too many photos of yourselves in here. You're gorgeous, but come on. Pick the two best of yourselves and that should be it.

I think you can't take the "dorm style" theme too literally. I was living on a dorm room budget years after I graduated from college.
