apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

Very creative and eclectic! I love the shades separating the bedroom from the rest of the space.

Using mini blinds as a room divider is smart. I like how adjustable they make the space.

Overall this place is as close to perfect as they come.

i love how you continued the backsplash above the cabinets, and use the window blinds as a room divider for your bedroom. i can't put my finger on why the 2nd pic looks so busy...b/c it's very organized.

what is that red and white pattern around the front door?

wow, what a space! the first three photos looked like three different apartments to me at first heheh. dig the skull :)

gorgeous!

I love pic #1 with all the deep rich colors and textures...
...and it's all gone in pics #2 & 3 with all the white.

If you had continued that slate grey color all the way around the apartment and down the entry hall - you'd have a winner.

Very creative. Awesome. Big open floorplans can be hard to work with - so much furniture has to 'float' - it can be hard to create a feeling of rooms but I like what you've done here.

Wow. What a study in contrasts. I just finished looking at the Small/Cool pics for the people who are quite literally living in a tent and went directly to this. Talk about different!

Love the space. It's gorgeous. The kitchen backsplash is beautiful!

this place is so cool that i'd never leave if i lived here. you have made some very bold and risky choices and yet it fits together perfectly. your apt is very inspiring not only to look at, but i imagine to live in as well.

it looks like the home of an artist.

p.s. i wish you left the two dogs in one of the pictures.

Very Cool. I like the contrasting colors and the aspen themed bedroom walls!

Would love to enlarge images even more for a close up peekaboo at all the splendid details! (:

wow....!

Where'd you get the ceiling fans? Though I think it is underwhelming in such a large space, I also feel that it is a great idea.

Nice :) Like the computer room with the retractable walls.

I must have your coffee table!

yay for bushwick! (i live there too). i am in love with the tree mural behind your bed. I've always wanted one of those.

What an amazing space.

Love everything but... the skull and the orange wall

i love all the bright light from those big windows! you have chosen colors that really catch the eye and make it a really fun space using the light that you get from those big windows! i really love it!
the use of the antlers and the animal print rug is really cool too...it adds a feel of being in a cabin, but you are really in brooklyn!!!

Lovely!

Very cool - love all the colors!

I think the most difficult places to decorate are open lofts since you have to create rooms. This is well done because every photo looks like a seperate room, but flows nicely together.

I wonder if the owner could tell us where the leather couch and chaise are from?

FABULOUS!

1. Love the bedroom, blinds as space separators? In most places- stooopid, in your place- genius.

2. In your living room, are those table fans repurposed as ceiling fans? Also genius.

3. Does anyone know the design history of the five-bulb lamp on the bottom shelf on the orange wall?

gorgeous;;

Awesome! You have such unique, great style.

I love the whole idea of this place, it seems as if I just stepped into one of those magazines where its like 'Beautiful creation ideas here' that's what it reminds me of. Very New York. I love it:]

Sweet pad you got there. Gentrification ho!

SO STYLISH! I want to bring my friends over here after an evening out on the town! You've got real flair, Chau!

Nice place! Can tell you're friends with Tsui with that style!

So much beautiful light! Important element to have in our concrete jungle. Warm and cozy.

Where did you get the amazingly gorgeous coffee table?
Beautiful home!

where did you get those round pillows on the couch?'been looking for them...BTW,awesome space--finally a lived-in space with style and character!Accumulating items over time as well as careful editing really pays off!

Love!

Thank you everyone for your vote and comments.

Ok here it is.
So the red and white pattern around the front door is just dark pink paint that I did by hand. It was a mistake that turned out to be pretty cool.

The ceiling fans is from Ebay.

The coffee table I got from the Chelsea Flea market. It's suppose to be a Vladimir Kagan.

The sofa I custom order from this company in LA. I don't remember the name.

The round pillows are from Century 21, a discount designers department store here in NY.

This is an amazing space - so creatively done! Where did you get the tree mural behind your bed?? I love it!

Yes, like the blinds in front of the bed a lot.

very impressive, i could never balance all of that stuff and color, and you make it work without feeling like you've stepped into something crazy.

You did an amazing job! This is a pretty large space for being so open, but you did a great job making everything feel separate. I love your half painted red wall. I was almost confused when I looked at your floor plan because I see that you bed is actually in the Alcove... I would have liked to see what you have set up in the "bedroom"

wow. I so want to see more pictures. This is very confident and assertive, but fun and livable, too.

There is alot going on here but it doesn't feel cluttered. Love the furniture. Great job!

Wow! You live nice. Good for You.

Very stylish. I missed the voting deadline but would have definitely given your home a thumbs up. Hope you get through to the next round!

I think it is very awesome! But I'm not quite sure why Janet's peaceful modern has gotten a lot of flack for being 1200 square feet. They have two people living there, but this is 1100 for one person?? Seems pretty big.

I don't get it. According to the blueprint, there's two bathrooms? Next to each other? The original bedroom is where the paino is, correct?
I really like the kitchen, but overall don't see a "theme" or unifying schematic.

i love this!
