apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

Ikea hacks on steroids.

Splatgirl in Minnesota has what we'd call mad skills.

As detailed elsewhere on AT earlier this month, she is designing and outfitting a "loft house" in Minnesota in high modern-industrial style, and she generously shares pictures of her progress as well as sources and directions.

We love this post, in which she creates a sexy-yet-practical storage vanity for her guest bathroom on the cheap. This industrial organic piece is a combination of Ikea's PS Cabinet, a slab of their butcher block, a simple porcelain basin from Mico ceramic, a faucet from eBay, and, pipes and valves that she plumbed herself.
