apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

i love the poppy color of the bookshelves...

I love what I'm seeing here, especially the livingroom. That is all good things.

Please id the white lamps in the photo with the futon!

i totally have that ceiling fan in my bedroom and love it. Nice job!

Loving the map art behind the couch -- are those license plates? Artist info, please!

I believe with better photography, your house could capture the color coordination i a much better way. Maxwell and his friends always try to tell us how important to have a good shot and give instructions to apply.

I really like the first shot and how you incorporated all those beautiful colors in your living room.

I am loving this one.

Where did you get the living room rug???

moni-ka, the rug is from Target. i have the same one :)

Thanks for all of the comments!

I got the lamps at lowes and I made the license plate map that is behind the couch. I got the idea for uncommon goods but made it for a lot less.

I love this! Where are the shelves in the living from? Did you paint them yourself? Do you have the color name? Great place! Insta-finalist!

Also, Brian and Sarah, what is the color of the living and dining walls? Thanks.

Shelves I painted using colorplace roasted pepper and living room is kilz tea cup.
Thanks

I have the same rug... good taste ;)

So much potential...

Good rendition of Aaron F.'s map - I may pass this entry onto him, I'm sure he'd enjoy it.

nor non native english speakers: does rendition mean us, or copy?

(i just thought it means copy, and then the comment is ultra snarky... and bad)

I love the ceiling fan! May I trouble you to mention who makes it?

I LOVE your color, especially the duck-egg walls and vermillion bookshelves in the living room.

I voted you as "in the running" because I love your color.

But . . . I detest your furniture- that brown floppy couch and late 80s PoMo dining room furniture, chandelier make me queasy.

But the color is gorgeous.

love the sofa, where did you buy from?

I really appreciate the use of color--and that's what this contest is about. It isn't about whether someone likes one's furniture or architecture, it's about color.

poltrona - It is called the Avian and is made by Harbor Breeze and you can get it at Lowes (I have the same one in my bedroom and love it. It is so quiet and very powerful). Here is the link:
