Also check out the Hotel So in Christchurch, New Zealand. My room was a windlowless pod, about 10 x 10 that included a prefab bathroom unit and a queen size bed. All done in a very sleek futuristic modern design with full integration of all of the room electronics via a central computer system. Loved it! The only downside was that there was no daily maid service. But then again, it was only $38USD/night. So if you don't mind tidying up after yourself, it's a fantastic deal.

This is Benjamin Moore "chartreuse."

Umm... MrsKJ, ever heard of New York City? 400sf sounds like heaven on earth to me.

Ugh! I just threw up in my mouth... a little. This woman is like cockroaches... or Cher? Just when you think she's gone for good, she keeps coming back... ugh!

Why bother doing a post on a DIY project if you're not going to disclose the cost of the project? Isn't that the whole point of DIY- to save money?

And this trend started because...? It was silly then; it's silly now. Why would anyone want crap scrawled across their walls and dust all over the floor?

I have this with a rainshower head. I have had zero problems. Plus, if you have spent a lot of money and consideration on tile and bath fixtures, why do you want to keep them hidden behind a shower curtain? Let the bling shine through!

bitdot- if you put down enough layers of polyurethane (and the reflection pattern in the photo definitely indicates that a ton of it was used), it will protect the floor from claws and heels. Actually, to be honest, I think this is kind of a brilliant idea to use in a smaller room like a powder room. And if at the end of the day you are sick of it, you can always sand it and cover it with something else. I think I might have to try this out... The Cole and Son Fornasetti line of wallpaper may be perfect for this- creepy yet really chic in the right context. But I would assume you would have to test the paper first to make sure it doesn't do wacky things when the poly dries/cures.

I'm sorry, but it's a white-walled yawn full of nondescript furniture and decor. The one saving grace is the majestic view.

Oh, please. There is nothing realistic about the "new" Seinfeld apartment. For one thing, it was a rent-stabilized rental. So it seems rather implausible that he would put in all-new cabinets, countertops and wide-plank hardwood floors. Secondly, that apartment is enormous for a one bedroom apartment.

On an unrelated note, am I the only one irked by the fact that everybody on this show drove a car to get around? I never saw anyone take the subway.
