apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

Lovely!

love the colors and the parasol

Finally, an apartment actually in DC! Really cute, I like the wall colors and bedroom. And ceiling parasol. Well done.

Yay DC! Nice place - I like the use of color

The subtle sophistication is enhanced by the warmth and comfort that you feel coming through the photos. Very pretty and a good use of space.

very cozy and nice colors.

Amazing color!

Wow! What versatile furniture.

Hmm where did you source the couches? Looks to me like you have the Lubi daybed. But your description doesnt gel with that. This is a great start. Like the colors and mixes of furniture styles.

^ Looks like there are TWO Lubi daybeds.

The versatility of your place is great. I wish there weren't two pictures of the alcove with the shelves though. They don't really add anything.

loooove this space! I adore the ocean paintings, and love that color in the entryway/kitchen, which looks great with the paintings. The shelves in the entryway are a great idea, and look amazing. I love the colors in the sleeping area. It is so refreshing to see a home with some girly, ornate gold pieces, rather than all mid century. Your space is so interesting and lived in, and I feel like your personality shows through. Great job!

what a sophisticated, beautifully arranged space! when I looked closely, I noticed "budget" pieces from places like Ikea, CB2, west elm, etc. -- but you would hardly realize it from the cohesive setup of the whole, which radiates chic. bravo on the use of vintage (non mid century) pieces which really mix up the look and add personality! the seascapes are great. you can really tell when someone had a clear idea of the "look" they wanted when they started decorating...or if they just have a strong sense of personal style in general. a beautiful, well organized home. well done!

hella sick, yo

Meh.

I would have given this a thumbs up also! Putting framed art over the sink is very unique. I also enjoyed your great use of blending colors. The parasol is just lovely.

I love that blue paint.

I think this is one of the best nominees. She shouldn't be penalized - the post was put up on a three-day holiday weekend and she surely would have had more votes at any other time!
