apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time


Our Press: The Washington Post 6.19.08
Washington DC

6-19-washpost.jpgWe seem to be on a roll lately, but this press mention is particularly nice because it's a beautifully written description and interview that captures the heart of what we're trying to do: Apartment Therapy: The Doctor Is In. Here's a good quote:

Are you surprised by the proliferation of design blogs?

No. Design in this country is on track to continue to grow. Just like the "gourmet effect" on food in the U.S. in the past 20 years, we're seeing the same things in interiors and design. I believe that in five years, men will not only be talking about getting chairs for the dining room table, but they will be talking about the Philippe Starck chair. America is getting more sophisticated, and concern and care for the home among younger people is very real. More Here

I was reading the Post over lunch, and as I was reading the article above this, about decorating an apartment from scratch/developing a style, etc., I was thinking, "wow I should post a link to this article on AT - it totally fits with the philosophy...". Then I glanced down and there was a big picture of Maxwell and the new AT book. It was very weird!
Anyway, congratulations on the good press!

End of the summer, anninva. According to the article, at least.

That's a good picture of you, Maxwell!
