<span style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">I am so excited to do the first post on our apartment! As you can imagine I've already redone the space a million times in my head but the one thing I knew for certain was that I wanted to paint the bathroom black! Our friends all looked at us like we were crazy but Eric, the mensch that he is, never doubted me for a minute. So with the help of our lovely friends who graciously spent their Sunday helping us paint we took the plunge and painted it black!</span></div>

Quick side note to anyone considering painting a room black - it takes SEVERAL coats. Our small bathroom took four! But once its done believe me its well worth it.Whitney http://www.blogger.com/profile/12829910441276970848noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-235888570483067881.post-11295587981029344192012-03-25T21:00:00.001-07:002012-03-25T21:00:22.769-07:00Rattan furniture <p class='bloggerplus_text_section' align='left'>I am continually impressed by the ingenuity and can do attitude of my parents. My dad is the kind of person who loves to tinker with things to figure them out. My mother is endlessly creative in the sort of way where we she can make even the most modest occasion beautiful. Thus, I suppose it should not have come as such a surprise when my mother confessed the other day that she and my father made their own rattan furniture for their first apartment together. So cute! Ever ahead of their time I think rattan is making a comeback. Below are a few of my favorites.</p><p class='bloggerplus_image_section'><div class='bloggerplus_image_section' align='left' ><img src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjM-zSyxK65ER4BVDgmsxN_q3FVkqm63LLs0dLGNcU1LwM-40RbzgQJGzjV_mpXN-petEecLiIqCZqatwIqFjgGY8RZ-QjLcAMzWhkA7RcpOLRbH-ZOXqentBR4-PIslI5jMojY1es5WCs/' ></img></div></p><p class='bloggerplus_image_section'><div class='bloggerplus_image_section' align='left' ><img src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeacGCs72KZcCQqcC1F1fycxoWx46aPnqTByk02oqxfGg1Iuvxbq1ciUf0Wm5-lZ5ABshuU4XPb4g700ph5VaV-Zqj0EYPxnqSWN2h7veI44AOFH7FM9XZcWsL6N8ntckvkxFCg0OXNUw/' ></img></div></p><p class='bloggerplus_image_section'><div class='bloggerplus_image_section' align='left' ><img src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYNhDMPu9zwDL4fHdSaYa3SoeJZzl_uhmFSJAY5NeLidDzQmCAohrz8lVqHNdruWdDwHNv4djeQwhjDXaln-OHFIgbyGkWPTw5QTgq2wPH_Ml62HqBPmY66HRKetuWj6vDOBceHpogbEI/' ></img></div></p>Whitney http://www.blogger.com/profile/12829910441276970848noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-235888570483067881.post-86068070885334708622011-12-26T12:03:00.001-08:002011-12-26T12:04:37.980-08:00A Little Holiday Cheer <p class='bloggerplus_text_section' align='left'>Nothing makes for a better party then a good old inspiration board.

I wanted something with bows and sashes, vintage or even vintage inspired would do but the bottom line was it had to be over the top AMAZING! I even gave myself permission to spend a bit more then I normally would because if you find something truly beautiful you'll find excuses to wear it thus making the investment justifiable. Then a funny thing happened, I scoured all my favorite spots but nothing quite stood up to the image in my head. On a whim I went to Kate Spades website and found these images:</p><p class='bloggerplus_image_section'><div class='bloggerplus_image_section' align='left' ><img src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5FfAc6UrKp1JzFFoyTEvesJ6pUU5_O3NFttx04u7OdRd5FWOuLO8Ir1VBZJGvH99qr7IRSHYpfUisUZDfq6JuraXQNdjnTKXKMAf8Ak7x3jQgySdOfl2aK74WhaoNkSyXGumSUQKKnaE/' ></img></div></p><p class='bloggerplus_image_section'><div class='bloggerplus_image_section' align='left' ><img src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgE6gwkpGI1FakS2-kmfXNy5p4AGis4DzI2OZm5-GZPZG3dCfZQm23V0dNZ3_vb6u0HLVjX8NHXZEwvrgceYWvu8mxAenxmANgLUkPrUVALEj9yyeh29EvB_B-QIL3W4Xa9ynKgOCShhfU/' ></img></div></p><p class='bloggerplus_text_section' align='left'>Now that I could do!

The photo was actually taken by Bill Cunningham. Which is surprising since most of his stuff is people on the street and everything about this shot screams fine art.

Thanks for putting this together Susi!<div><br /></div><div>Hi all, I'm Susi, a writer for <a title="Light Fixtures" href="http://www.arcadianlighting.com/" target="_blank">Arcadian Lighting</a>, a site that specializes in quality <a title="Lighting Fixtures" href="http://www.arcadianlighting.com/" target="_blank">lighting fixtures</a>. I love visiting design blogs like A Furnished Light to do guest posts. Rustic in the city sounds like an oxymoron. In reality, this is a design trend that pairs rustic elements with modern design to create a perfect style for the city. Mixing in rustic elements, and even a few farmhouse designs, into a mostly modern or contemporary space is a great way to add character. Here are some of my favorite examples of the rustic modern city style.<br /><p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-13995 aligncenter" title="City Style" src="http://blog.arcadianlighting.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/1-City-Style.jpg" alt="City Style" width="500" height="685" /><br /><em>What Wilson Wants</em></p><br />This incredible staircase is a great example of mixing modern (the space) with rustic (the wood of the stairs) into a style that is perfect for the city. Loft style combines rustic elements, like exposed beams and brick, with modern lines in furniture and accessories.<br /><p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-13996 aligncenter" title="City Style" src="http://blog.arcadianlighting.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/2-City-Style.jpg" alt="City Style" width="500" height="500" /><br /><em>Apartment Therapy</em></p><br />Mixing rustic and modern works well for a dining room in the city. A large table made from reclaimed wood surrounded by modern chairs makes for a stylish combination.<br /><p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-13997 aligncenter" title="City Style" src="http://blog.arcadianlighting.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/3-City-Style.jpg" alt="City Style" width="500" height="751" /><br /><em>Pinterest</em></p><br />School house style lighting creates a modern feeling space even when set against a more rustic table. Love all the texture and character in the table against the smooth lines of the <a title="Pendant Lights" href="http://www.arcadianlighting.com/pendant-lighting.html" target="_blank">pendant lights</a>.<br /><p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-13998 aligncenter" title="City Style" src="http://blog.arcadianlighting.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/4-City-Style.jpeg" alt="City Style" width="500" height="500" /><br /><em>Apartment Therapy</em></p><br />This console table is made from reclaimed wood and steel. The materials are rustic yet the style is decidedly modern. Perfect for an entry hall in a city apartment or loft.<br /><p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-13999 aligncenter" title="City Style" src="http://blog.arcadianlighting.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/5-City-Style.png" alt="City Style" width="500" height="742" /><br /><em>What Wilson Wants</em></p><br />Weathered and aged surfaces paired with sleek, clean lines is a great way to create city style with modern and rustic pieces. An aged painted piece of furniture with tons of patina looks amazing when combined with contemporary piece of furniture or <strong><a title="Light Fixture" href="http://www.arcadianlighting.com/" target="_blank">light fixture</a></strong>.<br /><p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-14000 aligncenter" title="City Style" src="http://blog.arcadianlighting.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/6-City-Style.jpg" alt="City Style" width="500" height="618" /><br /><em>Censtational Girl</em></p><br />Rustic paired with white, black or neutral colors puts the emphasis on line and form. This rustic island in black, with an industrial pendant light overhead, becomes the focal point of the kitchen.<br /><p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-14001 aligncenter" title="City Style" src="http://blog.arcadianlighting.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/7-City-Style.jpg" alt="City Style" width="500" height="644" /><br /><em>Marjam Elamaa</em></p><br />Rustic wood adds tons of texture to a minimalist modern space. It creates a great contrast for the smooth surfaces and lines of modern furniture.<br /><p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-14002 aligncenter" title="City Style" src="http://blog.arcadianlighting.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/8-City-Style.jpg" alt="City Style" width="500" height="480" /><br /><em>Censtational Girl</em></p><br />Love the barn wood wall that divides the living space and sleeping area in this studio apartment. Reclaimed wood adds nice warmth and character to any space. Such an interesting mix of styles in the <a title="Ceiling Light" href="http://www.arcadianlighting.com/ceiling-lights.html" target="_blank">ceiling light</a>, chairs and benches.<br /><br />Images:†<a href="http://whatwilsonwants.blogspot.com/search?updated-max=2011-07-19T16%3A16%3A00%2B01%3A00&max-results=7" target="_blank">1</a>†|†<a href="http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/dc/round-up-reclaimed-railroad-tie-furniture-for-the-living-room-098498" target="_blank">2</a>†|†<a href="http://pinterest.com/pin/80666868/" target="_blank">3</a>†|†<a href="http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/dc/round-up-reclaimed-railroad-tie-furniture-for-the-living-room-098498" target="_blank">4</a>†|†<a href="http://whatwilsonwants.blogspot.com/2011/07/chic-side-table.html" target="_blank">5</a>†|†<a href="http://www.centsationalgirl.com/2011/08/the-new-rustic/" target="_blank">6</a>†|†<a href="http://vaaleanpunainenhirsitalo.blogspot.com/2011/09/kiiretta-ja-paansarkya.html" target="_blank">7</a>†|†<a href="http://www.centsationalgirl.com/2011/08/the-new-rustic/" target="_blank">8</a><br /><br />What do you think of the rustic yet modern style?

I'm a firm believer that our creative impulses are generally rooted in deeper emotional states of being. Thus I was amused to see that the color schemes i've been attracted to lately are drastically different. Part of me loves the idea of a soft feminine pink room. The kind of sunny, inviting and almost indulgent room you never want to leave. Then the other side of me wants to paint my future space a dark and moody grey ala the always daring Abigail Adhern. The kind of room that forces you to take notice and says "love me or leave me." And this is of course exactly how I've been feeling lately. Part of me wants to nest - read novels, take naps in the sun and eat ice cream all day. Meanwhile, another part of me is dying for some action and adventure. In any case enjoy the feast for the eyes. Will keep you posed on my internal battles.<br><br><div class='bloggerplus_image_section' ><img src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhROkSVt2306oyK5TTrXC-G_XqGanBQqG6B4nlAuTFNhyphenhyphenyESLVd6D5j6ZTIol7idDijr-UQvNppaQuvS9Nk31952FOF3Y5UCxg7okkSZGMf_MJLafyoPTOfoWWKBBAz8-i9DfbVWeVnKSs/' ></img></div><br><br><div class='bloggerplus_image_section' ><img src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5XPw7ID7rtYXTuSqCgr9fOqy1SMEAy6KZXiTRpNJaDXVcORgFJm4mh_qcfbXagXWCY36Q-ZlIsM_pyw8BYUofOt1ZpHBjOKPRwqz76pM6vJph6oid4rlC3Bk966hom1phrdGRqv5Ug0o/' ></img></div><br><br><div class='bloggerplus_image_section' ><img src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxU7kGI2xBkxjETlBZ5D5F9ZfFi4mDF5h02Dba30DUhP1khDU0bXZs3nxM1DflF1NRKQIol1LMFOMxHf2B-jG3akAWRWfzdB74MnvuWs3MXBDAWolWIR-jKWbbqa2tYj4HeRsnTHempNg/' ></img></div><br><br><div class='bloggerplus_image_section' ><img src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjq9cnLjEXFp15kYoUDh-yIOnQD9VSCe6LPJAgMGEDX7AS4Y3SRiP7htZzQJRsfPFohRFVqObjVANEDTpl_g-nYNYKyjpfH-VhaM__-i6kbhFO_Xi0BIlxpaySlQg4YCx4DY95JlgfuYQI/' ></img></div><br><br><div class='bloggerplus_image_section' ><img src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkijp8je5byQZC0X4GpwlK2D6P85Ahi4v21wQRVqnT-uE1SHQzLUuri11mdTxFDJRZAiCAWJut5GjlBuRilhUMeGokWd7HBfmvfmXxljlYL7_SYaci4GLTQAhgQbJy9WRuy4HmueVf1wM/' ></img></div><br><br>Whitney http://www.blogger.com/profile/12829910441276970848noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-235888570483067881.post-90862547950882355122011-08-20T21:15:00.000-07:002011-08-20T21:15:19.716-07:00<a href="http://www.bloglovin.com/blog/2841475/a-furnished-life?claim=cby2v6jadc9">Follow my blog with Bloglovin</a>denisehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16181971977091421413noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-235888570483067881.post-63348031874554889182011-08-09T20:03:00.000-07:002011-08-09T20:03:02.018-07:00Blue Harmony<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><br />

Am not sure how it will take shape but I have a feeling it will be amazing. So if any of you or someone you know are looking for a charming tenant for your 1 bedroom look no further. In anticipation of this amazing spot I've already picked out colors.... The first is a moody black for the bathroom. <br><br><div id='bloggerplus_image_section' ><img src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMsVj7c-9ObweguQNWxlWztUkHiafXVLHFokhZzZIZQGXxGIG0HKLBzTLFkv9hb8YHG6V6xp3Y9Be9WsQAAAcMLlwGZB1LWk27sN0-EaifRnUQdgvDQiTRE9sXHZnGBPr9mB8nNnObP_k/' ></img></div><br><br><div id='bloggerplus_image_section' ><img src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8QR7v0skWhlbMmDOx9LzeSHL7XJ7NUom-F9YKyl_ymKjZVmw3UV_l012-pZYdsAIfrg_uQtWKnK2cdz8Bh_pi8JKg4fcrjeeGyRRoCgoD9TPXMAmuvQItfoawDjFtzdxZ_w7WmnY_Glc/' ></img></div><br><br>Next up is the living room.

Something about the picture sparked my imagination. The cobalt blue against the green just popped in a magical way. A few days later I saw this on a Swedish blog... <br /><div><a style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 1em; MARGIN-LEFT: 1em; CLEAR: right" href="http://goo.gl/photos/AN3nVAv1Gx" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/_Bw6lxh9FzTc/TXcRVPR8A0I/AAAAAAAAArg/kgFIcpf_Dgg/s512/1000000076.JPG" /></a></div><br /><div>Then I saw these images on a travel blog about Shanghai....</div><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 266px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5595541124974474674" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgooZGmHBJv4LEjyD2h73SUA8I2hvZX3leRpzkurs5tJUQ_CUDMitegt7RcnfS3VmJLjWrnPlf_sVQ_C7oDcGemAJnnXcLHczH1EbCv3Pu8f_HDiHEkZjLDnirgUicZLzszq8Z3tfQeuGM/s400/dont+go" /> <img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 266px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5595541121055991090" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgG9JBYmrMUMVYOZsNXmNY1X5matUabpynyh6H0eoVPszW8m9-zn38pHSp9waGzT_QjOiEyZkL7pMS-RnIrznkwZ3aDbVnxcKQm02j3OargoHc0CMcHvecXkGtdBHWgrPTFLeQGb0ApwqY/s400/river+boat" /> Obviously, its undeniable that color is everywhere, especially when you live in an urban setting. However, I think what really caught my eye about these images was that we've been living in such a neutral world of design for the last ten years. Their is no denying that their is a time and a place for neutrals but lately I've been dying for some bright bursts of color to disrupt the beige landscape and frankly I think that time has come. Below is a great image of one of the Ace Hotels latest ventures. <img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 297px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5595541132195293634" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJTi_PNiXM9Z3ntDEM1N1sK1o_d5YFTHP8itZYetkQabZQp580x3E8vPMNySIMlVu8vpoAG5H-umqwHDURzNV7Hy5GarZkxTpi5Nh4QEbehI8KNrt_Kb_KJKnxvrpFT8ZUmXkTQn-dXXA/s400/ace+hotel" /> I love the bright bursts of color against the black subway tiles.

What makes smaller hotels so great is designers have the opportunity to make intimately personal spaces. In many cases the design might get a bit tired if you had to live with it every day but feel perfect for a long weekend.
