I love the contrast between your dark walls and light furniture. What color paint did you use? What is hanging above your stove?

This apartment is the bomb diggity who would think you could take a 780 square foot apartment and make it look palatial!!

Very well organized and cozy.

It looks very clean, but I wouldn't say uncluttered. . .
Some of the photos show that a bit of editing would help, such as paring down furniture and accessories.

One example is the cabinet in the hallway -- allowing only 2' of passage space!

Aside from that, fabulous paint choices and great apartment.

Gorgeous. That dark wall colour is so luxurious but doesn't make the room any darker. Great light!

I dig the minimalist style...

Thanks for the feedback jac7890- I probably should have said B&B :) As for the hallway cabinet- that's definitely noted as one of my biggest challenges- where to put party platters / serve-ware without an actual dining room, haha!

great.

The link isn't working and I would love to know your paint colours. Very pretty!

"where to put party platters / serve-ware..."

How about a plate rack like this one? Doesn't help if you don't want to look at your platters or you have other items in the hall cabinet that wouldn't fit here or elsewhere, though.

I am in LOVE with everything about this apartment. Above all else, it feels liveable and enjoyable.

I think manndog hit it right on the nail: palatial.

sorry Azaleasmoke - they had to take down that external link (oops)- but here are some colors: #555533, #333333, #999944, #99aa99

Now this is the kind of hotel I would want to stay at! I love how the colors flow from area to area. Thumbs up!

It reminds me of the perfect Cape Cod seaside cottage. I could really live here and be happy waking up every morning. You really did an excellent job on the decorating and placement of furniture. I love the linens, the curtains and everything else.

I love you sofa and wood coffee table. Nice colors through out and love the kitchen, nice layout and good colors. Not crazy about the wine bottles lined up on top of the cabinets but to each is own.

Great job!

I would love to see your terrasse...

I love you sofa and wood coffee table. Nice colors through out and love the kitchen, I LOVE everything about this apartment.

i love that coffee table? Did you make it?

Hi lessismaur, sorry to bother you again, but can I get the paint brand to go with the numbers?
Thank you in advance! :)

Just curious if anyone can tell me what program was used to make the floor plan layout. Thank you in advance!

Hi Azaleasmoke- sorry I don't remember what brand of paint we used- and those paint colors are just hexadecimal numbers used for web (unfortunately I can't post a link to what I'm referring to)- but I definitely recommend researching water-based eco-friendly brands if you can- with little or no VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds). The site Eartheasy is a great resource.

Well, nature made the table, my father-in-law thought I would like it instead of burning it as firewood, and I just added the legs :)

OLA LUIS E MAUREEN ESTAO DE PARABENS ESTA TUDO MUITO BONITO LOVE.

I agree with manndog..this place is palatial! Especially love the colors on the walls...gorgeous!

My home is where every Maureen is but it's definitely nice to come home to our nest.

Very sexy and swank colors. Love the mix of color, textures shapes and furniture styles. JP has been representing to the fullest in this edition of small cool.

I love your duvet cover and am seeking a new one...where did you find that one?

YAY JP!!! amazing place! the plants really make it for me!

beautiful twist on a classsic.

Luis e Maureen did an excellent job on the decorating and placement of furniture. I love that coffee table?

.

I LOVE that Contempo Comforter and the beautiful curtains is so sleek and sophisticated. The apartment is PERFECTLY arranged with a feel of peaceful living.

Love your pad. I would offer half a million for a place like this!

Nicely done!!! You want to come over and redecorate our TN home?

if i'm not mistaken, the bedding is Dwell for Target. on my wish list....

Luis & Maureen,

You did a wonderful job. You guys are very talented. I really love the table.

I am in love with your sofa. Where did you get it?

I'm really sorry yours didn't win your face-off. You did a wonderful job and I think it is MUCH better than the other, which was oh-so-trendy and kitch instead of calm and liveable like yours.

I love your place.. and I know MILO loves your place.. and I am sad you didn't win.. I agree with Azaleasmoke here!
