Love the kitchen, must know how you did it. Is that carpet in the bathroom? The colours are wonderful, but carpet in the bathroom...*shudder*. All in all, thumbs up!

800 square feet! Wow, you're a man after my heart. Ditch the plus 1 and I'll come and visit.

Those stacked shelves in the living area scare me. Bad feng shui.

Great lighting! For such a small space it is really bright and inviting! And of course - great kitchen cabinets! :D

dkzody- That is such a RUDE thing to say. But then again you're probably just an unhappy person.

mfleininger - I think your place is fun!

Another fan of the kitchen cabinet leaves. They almost look internally lit in the corner. How are they done?
