LA Times Home & Garden Roundup 03.20.10
Los Angeles

032020-hng01.jpgThe eternal debate over real vs. copy continues. The articles that caught our eye in this week's Los Angeles Times Home & Garden section speak to that dilemma. If you sit firmly on the side of the real, there's an upcoming auction of Eames furniture in Chicago; for those for whom cost is more of a consideration than authenticity, there's a look at the Wegner Wishbone chair; a tempting replica of the Jacobsen Egg chair and a dissection of Almodovar's sets for Broken Embraces. Links to these stories and more on the Los Angeles Times website, after the jump.

Richard's Favour of Friendship
House Tour

031910bernastour01.jpgName: Richard Raymundo for Berna Santiago
Location: Makati City. Manila, Philippines
Size: 500 square feet
Years lived in: 2 years

Good friends are hard to come by. Good friends who can and offer to help you redecorate your space are even a rarer commodity. Berna's friend Richard answered her call for some serious help to help decorate her new Manila apartment, decorating her space with a mix of locally sourced items mixed in with some decorative items from Beijing, where Richard travels for business. The apartment is a mixture of modernity with cultural detailing, with simple forms combined with traditional ornamentation that gives the 500 square feet apartment a sophisticated, yet comfortable, presence.

The Proper Place For Nudes

I'm a little hesitant to broach this subject, but as it's come up in several conversations this week I thought I would turn to you Apartment Therapists for input. Growing up in family of artists, I encountered nude sketches in practically every room in my childhood home, and I was quite aware of how uncomfortable it made some of our visitors.

Will's Purple Haze Bathroom

Las Vegas resident and Apartment Therapy reader Will writes in:

I was inspired by your "Purple Rooms I Don't Hate" article. We've just redone our bathrooms in our small Las Vegas condo. Our master bathroom, which is shared by two men, is purple [note: photo colors are off]. I think we managed to make it look pretty masculine. It's got a Jimi Hendrix theme.

How To Clean In-Ear Headphones

031910cleanearbuds.gifWe love our in-ear headphones. One thing we don't love about them is how quickly they can start looking quite dirty thanks to the white ear buds. Recently we discovered the cleaning powers of a home brew solution we made for cleaning our laptop screen. Since sharing cleaning tips is something that we do here at Unplggd, we've decided to share our guide to cleaning your in-ear headphones using our handy screen cleaning solution.

8 Great Bathroom Color Combos

Bathrooms are such small spaces that even a tiny splash of color makes a huge impact. Painted accent walls and accessories are easy enough to change if you want to enliven the color palette in your bathroom, or if you're renovating, you might consider colored tile or fixtures as a way to add some personality.
