Hmmm. Nope, I'm still in the camp where Zero Neon = just enough Neon.

I love the idea of these posts, keep them coming. I also like the idea of 3 different area price points. Moving from Manhattan to Charleston, yes my salary is less, but even though Charleston might have one of the highest costs of living in the deep South, it pales in comparison to Manhattan, even in the heart of historic downtown. Its also interesting to thinking about other dream places realistically... I'm hoping you do one for Paris (my "when I'm aggravated" dream escape city)!

Its lovely to see something 'local' on here, highlighting some of the great design that his happening outside of the big cities! Good job and cheers to you from downtown Charleston!

I am very impressed by this as well.

oh, and commenters worried about cat sleeping arrangements, my cat, and I suspect many of the species, would have no problem hopping right up that ladder! I have to lock her up in a room so I can go up my in attic in peace without seeing her tearing around in the insulation.

@Bee For Bryan,

I have the exact same problem as Zenezie, a corner fireplace, with very short stub walls on each side with a doorway to the left and a 10 ft opening to the dining room on the other side. With windows on the far wall that leaves EXACTLY one and only one place to put the TV and it is above the fireplace. Not ideal, as it highlights it too much, but without blocking traffic flow or the fireplace and choosing to actually have a couch in the room, it really is the only logical solution. Corner fireplaces are difficult period when it comes to room design. Anyhow trust me, its certainly not that difficult to imagine, particularly in old houses that weren't built with TVs in the picture.

extremely good job on that table

hmmm. I like most of the pieces but the put together isn't working for me. I suspect maybe another 4 months might change this make it more real? Either way, its nice to see budget style that doesn't look like Ikea or PB, my exact cup of tea or not. And you certain have a good eye for the pieces!

On the one hand, it does sort of look like a chair, but on the other, it reminds me of that device you rock beneath your foot to stretch out your calf...

Seeing as my $30 dollar ceramic space heater I bought 8 years ago still runs like a charm doing exactly what its supposed to do, my guess is that the only problem James Dyson had was he couldn't figure out a way to charge ridiculous amounts of money for a space heater and convince people to buy it. He's obviously solved that problem.
