This is the floor plan I made of my apartment using floorplanner. It has some layout ideas that I’ve been throwing around. Currently, the apartment has no furniture, and my mattress and boxspring lie on the floor of my bedroom. Also, I don’t really want zebra-striped barstools. I’m just having fun.
The kitchen needs to be redone, and I will have an island/table made with barstools. It’s a small space, but huge by NYC standards.
Anyway, my decorating scheme will be modern/ethnic, with bursts of color. Think lots of natural woods with a deep grain, complemented by an autumnal palette. I am also somewhat obsessed with the idea of a colored crystal chandelier. For my foyer, I have my eye on an orange-colored branch chandelier I spied at ABC carpet & home made by Canopy Designs.
Number one best thing about my apartment: WASHER/DRYER BABY! (They’re in the kitchen right next to my stove, but nothing’s ideal in NYC. I’ll TAKE IT!).
This will all cost lots of money, I am aware. But I’m alls-grown-up so I’m okay with it. NO MORE IKEA! Nothing against IKEA, but I only associate it with past foolishness, design- and other-wise.
