apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

Laure - what a cute space! It has really great details (Like that fireplace!)

You are so sweet for picking me as your fave entry. I hope to see you at the DWR party.

Love this space so much!!! So bright and cheery! I love your balcony!

I love the Eiffel Tower lamp! Where did you get it?

Love the collection of very cool lamps! Wish we had more photos of the whole space rather than vignettes, but I can tell you have lovely space. Also, I vote for keeping the bedroom credenza that you featured in your photos!

The lamp is from Target! (Probably 5 or 6 years back).

Resisting wanting to move back to L.A....

This is the perfect apartment for a single person. I am crushing on Laure's and coco's apartment.

Also I wish my mom was on the cover of Elle. Wow!

this one is probably my very favorite of all. its so clean, simple, and bright. it's also closest to my decorating style, so im a bit biased.

Laure, i hope you win, cause it seems like you'd appreciate the prize the most.

Oh, Laure, I just love it! What a perfect, perfect first apartment! You've done a fabulous job!

Laure- Great job! I especially love the paint colors you chose. Do you remember the names/brands of the paints?

If you want to keep your photos of your Grandma in good condition, you probably shouldn't have them facing a window that lets in a lot of light. Before you know it, they're faded out.

Love this place and you're simply a doll Laure.

I like the striped duvet cover(?) on your bed. . where is that from? overall, a nice place!

What a wonderful place, I love the colors and the light. Great job!

I think your next project should be finishing that pillow with the Elk on it. Heehee. Just kidding- Lovely place.

You have done a fantastic job. Hope you win!

what a beautiful space! i'm heading out to LA tomorrow to visit friends and this space (and the other dreamy venice apartments) are already making me want to move back!

your place makes me happy.

Laure, you have such a beautiful home. You've managed to achieve a perfect balance of elegance and comfort. Wonderful!

oh i love everything about your place. so inspiring!! it's absolutely my favorite space. hope you win!!

what a gorgeous home. wonderful design, and a wonderful feeling. thank you for showing us!

This place makes me smile. :D

This is the loveliest place I've seen. It seems like such a nice place to live, and yet the design is gorgeous as well.

And what a cute cat in the bathroom! Looks like a baby.

You should hang the mirror in the bedroom.

Those bedroom lamps are great! I have no place for them but I want them.

Coco is a cutie.

I'm sure a number of people will be envious of all your "light" in the living room area.

Good Luck!

A warm, inviting, joy-filled place. I could see myself stopping over for a cuppa tea... (with Cocoa greeting me at the door!) (:
A lovely, lovely home you have!

Your apartment is wonderful! I think your plan to add mirrors to that hallway is a good one :)

Hey k in ditmas:
check out my original entry for some wider shots of the living room/dining room and bedroom.

I still have the paint cans from painting so I'll post the colors when I am back home!

Ooh it's pretty. I want an Eiffel tower lamp!

Coco! What a great piece!

I've got to know: How much of a hand does Coco have in design decisions?
