apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

What color would you say the exterior of the Sweeney Building in Dumbo is?

For reference this was the best photo I could find online:

looks lavendar and purple with thin blue stripes.

I was wondering if anyone could tell me where I could find some fun, bright green and white Toile shower curtains?
I have looked every where! Thanks

It's so easy to make shower curtains I thought I'd give you some links for toile --

Does anyone know about using a silkscreen to "print" on a plaster wall. Is it possible? are there any special tips? what kind of paint etc. Bilk is nice but i would like to use my own graphics. thanks for the help.

Dear AT et al:

Help!!
I am going to be in London for two non-consecutive nights (10/15 and 10/20) and need a room for three adults, preferably in bankside/southwark/tower/waterloo area.

Do you know of any hidden gems that are clean, bug free, and less than $300 a night? My sister makes $10 an hour, and would literally eat her hat before paying $100 a night for a hotel. Please help, I've been searching intermittently for a month, and seriously for the last 2 hours and well, I'm ready to eat my own hat!!

And stylish though it may be, I don't think my hat is tasty. :(

Does anyone know where I can buy Sigg water bottles in NYC (pref. downtown)? Thanks.
