love it. some artwork taking the colors onto the walls would be a bonus. love the bar hack.
Lovely Lauren!
i knew that was a baltimore rowhouse before i even read the location! love the color!
I love your bar!
Love the chair!!!!
I dig the tray top table. What brand is it and where can I get one?
Wow! #1: Love the grey and orange. #2: Your floorplan is the best use of space for Bmore's typical 12-14ft wide rowhouse IMO. If only my rowhome had been rehabbed with the stairs as a divider between rooms as yours and the vestibule retained for character!
Elegant but comfortable. That's my idea of great design to live with!
LOVE the chair! Just posted it on my pink and orange blog:

Love the bar set-up and all that brick.
I love it! especially your chair!
terrific!
this is so chic and i LOVE the pops of color. it has an element of whimsy and you made exceptional use of the textures and using the length of the room. furniture is amazing, and green too. it's all lovely!
Never get rid of that coffee table - perfect. I do agree with the first comment regarding artwork, though that sort of thing happens over time. Your space is lots of fun!
great space! love the balance of a clean open space and a defined cozy seating area!
the bookcase... is that an ikea expedit painted? if so, however did you get the paint to adhere?
I looove this color scheme! Is that a Karlstad Ikea sofa? If so, where in the world did you get that fabulous cover for it? :)
