People's homes should reflect their personalities, and their lives. Dan and Eszter's does. It's a welcoming space, full of art and books and vintage modern pieces, all of which are meaningful to them.
AT Survey:
Our style: Eclectic mid-century modern.
Inspiration: Italian/French apartments from the 1950s to today.
Favorite element: The natural light and the colors.
Biggest challenge: We are renters, therefore lots of features have to stay the same.
What friends say: It's welcoming and warm.
Biggest embarrassment: The baby pink tile in the bathroom that we can't do anything about.
Biggest indulgence: Buying artwork and a Room & Board couch.
Dream source: The store Habitat and loads of European magazines.
