Apartment Therapy
Some of you sensible people out there might have well insulated homes, but I don’t and frankly “dahlings” I’m finding living in a 90 meter square fridge and having condensation streaming down the walls terribly last year. If I was sensible I’d take a trip to Bunnings and invest in some pretty pink batts and investigate heating options but instead I’d rather redecorate and I’ve found the perfect inspiration;Apartment therapy presents real homes, real people, hundreds of real design solutions, a funky and stylish mixture of rented and owned flats accross America.
Most of the apartments are on the compact side and present significant spacial and aesthetic challenges. Many of the home decorators also admit to having more dash than cash forcing some cunning shopping and innovative solutions. The ”real people” owners use flea market vintage and quirky collections, such as kewpie dolls, metal wrenches(!) and street signs to add that little “je ne sais pas” to the mix. I particularly loved a wall covered entirely with post-it notes. This is a fantastic and achievable source book for anyone drawn to the cheap, cheerful or kitsch in interior decoration.
