apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

I love you too!

My favorite part is the devotion to small spaces. Sometimes it gets a little depressing living in only one room but AT reminds me that I'm not the only one out there AND there are alot of great things you can do to just one room!

Thank you :)

Since, Ive come in contact with you my husband thought I was having an online affair. I wake with you and I go to bed with you. What was he to think but everytime he glanced at the screen he saw homes, furniture, accessories and tips. I shared you with him and now we both

Love you,
Happy V day AT

I love the focus on creating great design without breaking the bank. It's ok to not have wads of cash and be budget-minded.

I love the scavenger posts that remind me to look beyond a catalog or .com for goodies.

I love that it doesn't take a design degree to put together a great space. You help to focus us on creativity, individuality, contrast, minimalism, complimentary elements. I've learned that subtle repetition and splashes are can be truly more effective rather than the tsunami approach (goodbye chinese red wall, hello chinese red box).

I love all you other readers, too. Thanks for the feedback and ideas. My friends are tired of looking at roomandboard.com with me. I'm glad you never get tired of it. :-)

I also want to say thank you! Without AT, I would never have known what a tulip table, S chair, or Parsons table was, much less owned them (or knock-offs thereof). It's taught me about many designers and styles that I've never heard of before. It's frustrated me by introducing me to gorgeous furniture that I'm too cheap to buy. It's helped me to slowly drive my mom crazy by sending her ten emails a day of "Hey, Mom, check out this website!" Finally, it's just given me tons of ideas and helped me to define my own style. I suck at interior design, but I am finally coming around to an apartment that doesn't embarrass me. And thanks, too, to the other readers who are always answering my "Where does that come from?" questions and giving me great ideas.

Golly, Natalie Wood was gorgeous...
...shame about the bedroom.

I gotta say I love you too AT (and not just for the fabulous prize, but that's a bonus!) I'm a newbie to the site and my partner is so dang sick of my look at this, look at this!

I love your devotion to eco-design and to your brilliant do-it yourself ideas for those of us craft minded or just not rolling in the green stuff. And I can't wait to take advantage of the baby/kid stuff. Nothing gets me more than hip baby clothes.

Thanks AT - you rock.

AT has inspired me in countless ways.

thanks AT!

Thanks for posting one of my favorite actresses.
Beautiful and oh so charming.

It is a shame she died the way she did.

I echo everything Pteetsa said. I have been inspired by AT to redecorate my whole house (all 700 square feet of it including bathroom). It's a work in progress since I'm the only one around to do the labor, but it's a labor of love. My house is now my Petit Boite a Bijoux, and I find new ideas and inspiration every day on AT.

I love Natalie Wood!! Just as much as I love AT!

I guess I am a cynic... I thought the "I love you" email was a virus carrier!

And that's after a lovely Valentines Day date!

I love you, AT, because, in this tiny row home, with it's view of the factories, it's broken furnace, it's many, many cats, and it's nest of dog hair, where my mother, the owner, indulges her love for "cracker barrel" style design & hoarding and my husband likes to scatter garbage, I can retreat to the net and devour your pages, as if it were a conversation with likeminded friends, or, better, a catalog to design my happiness.

I hope I'm not always shopping from the ikea "as is" section or DIYing my lamps. AT drives me, after 8 months of unemployment, to fight for the future I want.
