So fun to randomly stumble upon the house tour of someone I know!! Kristy is just as warm in person as her house is. If only you could eat her restaurant's famous steak sandwich - then you'd get the full effect!

I dobt know how suaves age, but the 2003 inama is to DIE for. Out of this world. Perfume in your mouth.

Echoing the many comments about how wonderful it is to have garden design on apartment therapy. hoping all these comments will spur a gardening AT spin-off like oh-dee-doh and the kitchn...fingers crossed!
For the beginners, it would be awesome to have a full library list - i started gardening two years ago, and spent the first 12 months buried in books. I learned SO much from the masters!

If you like the Neutra numbers but don't want to spent $48 per number (craziness!), check out Home Depot's version: http://www.homedepot.com/h_d1/N-5yc1v/R-202051819/h_d2/ProductDisplay?langId=-1&storeId=10051&catalogId=10053. Only $5.99 per number. We just bought some last night, and they look great in person. Now we'll have to see how hard they are to mount :).

Those who comment that it looks too clean or too impersonal need to remember that it is styled and perfectly clean in preparation for a photo shoot - no house looks like that without preparation.
the thing that i found most impressive about this house, despite it not being exactly to my taste (but i revel in the fact that there are so many equally valid design tastes in the world), is that everything looks well-made, tasteful, and (my apologies if this is totally gauche) expensive. not that looking expensive is necessarily something to strive for, but when i first saw the post, i thought - oh, this is silly, i cant afford any of this stuff. but when i saw the source list, much to my surprise, much was from my beloved ikea...

Oooh, I see potential for a Morrocan/tropical paradise!! Take a look at some of the picture from the recent Morrocan bathroom posts for inspiration. Jewel tones are all the rage, so you could play that up (without letting it get out of control colorful).

totally unnecessary given the 10 million love love loves above, but I LOVE this house!! I grew up in Concord, MA and it reminds me of my mom's house - except with more style and pizazz! What an incredible place! Inspires me to use more color in my own design!

First (unsolicited) comment - I think your rug may be a bit small for the space. I urge more talented ATers than I to offer some suggestions for the floor covering...
For the lighting, I'm thinking large pendant or modern rustic (perhaps danish - i'm thinking something even room and board-ish) chandelier. I can't tell if your entry table has a table lamp on it, but if it doesn't, I'd add one there.
Love the skull and cross bones pillow on the fancy chair - fab :).

The Room and Board Anders is fairly similar as well: http://www.roomandboard.com/rnb/product/detail.do?productGroup=3043&catalog=room&category=rm_bedrooms&subcategory=dresser, but way pricier than the Malm, of course!

I'd go with a warm grey or a greige with decorator's white trim semi-gloss - BM early morning mist or grey owl for color.
