Speaking of Artwork, remember that we're not just looking for artwork you've done; we're looking for artwork that you've collected. We want to see what you have, how you hang it, and how it affects your room.
This is our last week for art as an emphasis, so if you have any sources, tips or ideas to share, send them in...
Meanwhile, another great apartment to look at for artwork is Victoria's out in San Francisco. Looking again at her apartment a few weeks ago, we were reminded how varied artwork can be. It's not just pictures on the wall. It is also vases, bottles, chalboards, feathers and shells. Take a look at what she's done in her apt. It's really lovely.
Victoria - I cannot say enough positive things about your home. I have seen many wonderful spaces on AT but yours is my favourite.
Victoria's apartment is unbelievable... I wish I could have such a refined style.
yes, her apartment is amazing, and also always evolving. check out her blog and flickr sets.
coolest place I've ever seen. when do I move in??
I don't recall seeing this apartment before. I'll have to add this to my favorite list which, up until now, consisted only of P2's and Curtis'. Three place, each extremely different. Wow. Victoria. This is incredibly beautiful
How do I get to Victoria's blog......

how many times can i say i love this lamp?
here here to all of the above! Just joyful!Absolutely love the burnished woods, the trade of cleaning to keep the blue lamp, the fold out arched mirror in the bathroom, the chalkboard, the delightful balcony space! Too many exclaimation marks are not enough!!!
Really lovely and warm. I love all of the attention to detail. An inspiration.
And the wicker-esque rug/floor mat you have on your balcony and near the doggy food - I'm trying to find one of those for my place, but for the life of me, I can't remember what they're called. I'm in NY, but could you tell me where you got yours? Should at least be able to point me in a direction.
Thanks!
Thanks Lila!!!
beautiful...inspiring...wonderfully lived and loved in...an eye tickler
Hey there - I just saw this post! Thanks so much Maxwell! I'm so flattered. As Angelune said, my apartment changes a lot. I get restless and tend to move things around and add new pieces. But my rule is: one thing in, one thing out. And that's thanks to Maxwell's guidance about simplifying and keeping just what you use and need (I'm still working on this one!).
Anyway, check the blog, or my flickr account to see recent changes. It's changed considerably since this house tour.
And to answer Harley's question, the rattan matting is from Cost Plus World Market.
