This has a lot of style. I am not a fan of the 'skin' rugs, think they are creepy, but I love your fake skin rug.
Would like to see more, well done!

I am very impressed that you have two white couches with two pets. Interesting use of space, but if your building has fire inspections, blocking the hallway to make a closet may be a fire hazard.

I love that yellow table in the first picture. I used to see this layered look a lot when I lived in Cambridge. Not feeling these too much however.

This is beautiful!

I am curious about that raincoat - it appears (on my monitor anyway) to be made of brown shipping paper. Any details about that?

*love* the shower curtain and the tapestry (I think it is at The Cloisters?). The toile is cute too. Ha! I thought the chopsticks were really tall, think candles in unicorn candlestick holders.

I am not sure how to link it, but I really like the RÅSKOG cart from Ikea. It might be more aqua than minty green and I haven't seen it yet so I don't know how sturdy it is, but I thought of it when I saw this post.

I like that little table and I am sorry to read it isn't sturdy, although I don't like the way it is 'styled' for the photo; looks a bit overloaded with stuff.

I like this bed too and that white vase in the third picture looks like the Apartment Therapy (orange) symbol!

I lived mostly on the Cambridge side for 20 years. I miss it and it is nice to read this.

I keep returning to this beautiful apartment. I hope you will give us a name or link to your easel.
I also wanted to mention your lovely little coffee table and that clever rolling stand - did you make that?

What a wonderful apartment! I have lived for years in studio apts and they never looked this chic! I can't remove the carpetting in my current home and I will never move into a place with w2w again.
I am so impressed with that mirrored dresser and I have never seen mirrored closet doors look so good. The curtains are beautiful, your diy projects terrific. I have a small French easel on a stand because I never have enough room for a full easel - you make it look easy!
The bedspread is a nice pop of color and how impressive you do that each day - I have always gone for the bed behind the bookcase trick because I didn't want to deal with unfolding a couch every night.
I really liked your blue hanging baskets. I have something similar in copper wire, that looks macrame but I didn't see a source.
I think your plant is a sword plant, also known as 'Mother-in-law's tongue'. They are good apartment plants, pretty indestructible. This is one of my favorite 'house' tours.

Bring on the small-cool!

Beautiful job Maxwell. I could easily see this paired with a pale shade of aqua on the walls. I am not such a big fan of grain on hardwood floors. I think that is called 'clear' when there is little to no grain. As an asthmatic I prefer minimal to no carpetting. I am looking forward to the next steps of your renovation.
