I just want to full-on sprint and jump into that bed! I agree, I can't have enough pillows either. I really like to room overall it's very inviting. Well done!

A bathtub in my master bedroom (teeny stall shower). Good sized closet (no closet and an attic door in the ceiling, had to design a custom oddly dimensioned closet at container store). BUT I got a great price, a great lot, and it was move-in ready. I think it's worth taking more showers and getting rid of some clothes!

UNBELIEVABLE! There is some major artistic genious at work here. I can't imagine the amount of work it took to repurpose all of those items. Very neat!

Really looking forward to shaping up my office (which looks more like a garage). I am on a super low budget though (recovering from a wedding). It will be interesting to see how far I can go with Ross, Craigslist and thrift-stores!

I'd have to agree with a greyed-down purple color. I think it would look great with the steel grey velvet couch and lucite chairs. Plus purple is a very glamorous color when toned properly.

I'm not a fan of hot pink. Cool concept though! Perhaps it should be padded. It looks like there was some ergonomic thought put in, but using a skeleton as a demo is concerning.

I want the bedroom too. I do believe that personal touches would take away the sterile effect. But boy, it is relaxing just looking at it. Open and airy, absolutely love it!

I would have to agree. I discovered Non Ami last year at whole foods while looking to replace Comet. It works great, even on ceramic tubs, I can use a gentle sponge (without the scratchy side!) and the abrasive in the cleanser gets rid of all the rings and scum without scratching. It's awesome! I'm glad others think so.

I definately believe that less is more, but I am quite the pack rat! I have been slowly decluttering; sentimentality runs deep. But the more I clear out, the more refreshed I feel. In a nation with so many choices and distractions, there's this constant feeling of hyper-stimulation. Its nice to come home to a place where my eyes and brain can rest.

I really love the minimalist style ( I have been trying for years! I am such a packrat!) And the mixture of warm and cool tones, with the blue walls and rich wood furniture (bedroom) and flooring. However, this place looks pretty pricey. The tracklighting, the kitchen appliances and fixtures...it doesn't need much to look beautiful. I have to appreciate the ghetto (for lack of a better word) style apartments where people find creative ways to hide ugly radiators and bad flooring. Poorer people like myself :) have to get creative! Nonetheless, well done!
