This is an interesting one: part Victorian relic, part mod landing strip (note the addition of a colorful and practical Ikea Jagga). And, it begs questions:
• Does that phone work or is it just decorative?
• Great, bold color combination. What's the maker and name of that lovely blue?
Noodylicious, are you out there?

That's me!
The phone doesn't work to make calls, but I can press a button on the side to buzz people through my building's front door. It's left over from when my building was a hotel (back in the '20s and '30s I think); there's another button still labeled "front desk".
The paint color is "Hawaiian Sky" by Dutch Boy.
If anyone wants to see more photos of my apartment, here's the flickr set:
