What I Love About My Small Home:

The apartment in which I live remained closed for more than 10 years before I moved in. That's the reason why it kept it's original architectural and coating features. I love all its details.

Many meals are grab-what-you-can endeavors or thrown together affairs. In these instances, it's nice to have a well-rounded pantry to supplement and build a meal from not a whole lot. Here are 10 of our own low-budget pantry staples.

There are so many questions to ask when choosing a bedroom color: does this color go with the things I already own? What color is most flattering to be around while naked? What does Pantone say I should like this year? But since we spend most of our bedroom time sleeping, the most important question might be: does the color of your bedroom affect how much sleep you get? A new study suggests it might.

When Ana found the listing for this 3-bedroom duplex in the New York Times, her immediate response was "it's way too good to be true." The building had been in litigation for three years and most people had been scared off. 

One of the best parts of the house tours here on Apartment Therapy is finding inspiration for our own homes. That inspiration often leads to searching around for the individual pieces to replicate the look, which can feel like an interiors scavenger hunt. We've rounded up some of the key pieces in Hannah & Brandon's "Ever Evolving" Classically Modern Reno living room to help all you design hunters get the look at home.
