apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

Would love to see other parts of your home... (:

wow. . well curated! (sorry for the buzz word but couldn't think of anything else!

What is the paint color on yorur living room walls. It is ready a light blue/gray which makes the dark furniture look beautiful!

Would like to have seen bedroom or bathroom or kitchen instead of angles/vignettes in same space !

lovely rooms. and i'm originally from oak park. isn't it lovely?

love your sofa. any info on who created it?

Very nice, and no so nice to see a style other than mcm, even if I do like it in doses. Very calm and warm.
Is the angel art yours (as in did you paint it?), because it is beautiful and thought-provoking.

I meant "so nice", not "no so nice" :P

I would like to give a thumbs up but don't feel I can on the basis of only one room.

The first shot of the living room is amazing, but I have to agree with the others that I cannot give you a "thumbs up" since you only show us bits and pieces of one room when there are five rooms in the apartment!

There is an absolutely FLAWLESS combination of pieces/eras/styles going on here. I'm okay with not seeing your toilet since I'm guessing your landlord picked it out. Bra-vo.

Your home has great potential at the first picture. But instead of showing us the space, you opt for pictures of favorite pieces in your living room. I can't give you "a thumbs" up based on that.

I too would have liked to see more (bedroom, kitchen or bathroom) but gave a thumbs up so hopefully ill get to see more of the place.

He has decorated this place with an artist's eye. I am wowed. It's beautiful.

You have some beautiful pieces and they're well arranged (the Icharus painting is SO gorgeous), but because I can't get a sense of the whole apartment I'm going to have to withhold my thumbs up.

I wish you'd included more pictures of the kitchen, bedroom, bathroom, etc., because I'm sure they're just as lovely!

Thanks so much for the positive comments. A few answers/responses.

1. The walls are Blue Stream by Benjamin Moore
2. Sofa is teak & mid century, unknown maker, French. From Toomey Gallery in Oak Park.
3. Angel painting is by Jonathan Franklin

4. In regards to the comments of it being only one room, pictures #3 & 5 are actually of the dining room as well. I totally agree that it should be more comprehensive. In my defense my apartment was actually broken into last week and ransacked. They took several things including my digital camera. These are old photos from a month or so ago and there wasn't time to take any new ones of the other spaces as I had planned... so apologies! Hope that explains things a bit.

LOVE the pedestal with the oranges!

love it! peaceful and quirky.

Whoa... hope andrew's comment stopped the haters in their tracks. People can be very a little mean at times... thumbs up from me!

beautiful beautiful beautiful.

I love it.

Whoops. Typo. Here is the correct link for to the artist who did my painting:

Let me just say that not only is this apartment amazing, but so is the person who lives in it! Love you Andrew!

Very nice.

Light, airy and excellent use of neutral colors.
