I really liked those brown tiles, i would have kept those personally and maybe just changed the countertops/cabinet color. But i like the after too!

Hi @phyllisc4075 !
Thank you for being with us still! Yes, those walks were great and the broke down when my wife left me for another person in 2011 and I needed a few years to heal. I just got remarried to my long time girlfriend, Elly Castle, and we've talked about starting them up again. They were always the day before the NY Marathon in November, so we'll see! Stay tuned.
Best, M

Thanks so much, Daniela!
Btw, I'm an Apartment Therapy OG! Yep, here from the get-go, when it was local: NYC, I live in Chelsea, so there were local "in real life" activities. My favorite was "AT Walks Manhattan": a bunch of us met at the George Washington Bridge at the top of Manhattan and walked down Broadway to the southern-most tip, Battery Park.
Re: Community replaces Comments?
Hi VintageBirthday, While this is a very big change, we're finding that the folks who contribute their homes are really grateful that we can now moderate comments about their homes and they are also excited to jump in and answer questions. It's making for a much healthier environment.
That said, we know the experience right now is bumpy and we're working on figuring out ways to improve it and extend easy forum comments to every Tour and B&A. Right now we have to do it manually and only can cover 50% of the Tours and B&A's each week.
If you want to start any conversation about anything and do it yourself, simply start up a convo with a good title and include pics and a link to the post if there is one.
For example, this is the most popular Tour of the year so far with title, link and one pic

Re: Before & After: This “Totally White and Plain” Bathroom Gets a Cozy, Colorful Makeover for $80
Amazing what a difference a coat of paint and a couple of accessories can make. Very nice!
Re: Before & After: This “Totally White and Plain” Bathroom Gets a Cozy, Colorful Makeover for $80
Love the color palette! I would add a mirror to this place and put the cabinet on top of the towel bar. And yes, 80$ is a WOW, how did you do it ?!

Re: Before & After: This "Gloomy" Bathroom's $1,000 Glow-Up Makes Life So Much Easier
Bravo! What a beautiful transformation.
I don’t have the courage to try wallpaper anywhere , but you did it and it comcompletely changed the bathroom from generic to fabulous!
Re: House Tour: An “Old-Fashioned” Paris Flat Is Super Cool After This Designer’s ‘70s-Inspired Redo
First, the positives. I love the furniture (especially the sofa), the bathroom (what we actually got to see of it) and the floors. (And the cat.)
I don't get the plywood cladding (feels more like the inside of a storage unit than someone's home), but maybe that's just me.
Unless my eyes deceive me, the kitchen worktops have been covered with peel-and-stick plastic which doesn't look great now and isn't going to improve with age. Honestly think it would be worth paying someone to install a proper worktop.
This is a great little flat with lovely light. Like others here I'm continually frustrated by the lack of "at-a-distance" photos that give you a real idea of what's going on in every room.
