90%

This is not only brilliant,it is much needed
“The majority of the world’s designers focus all their efforts on developing products and services exclusively for the richest 10% of the world’s customers. Nothing less than a revolution in design is needed to reach the other 90%.” 
—Dr. Paul Polak, International Development Enterprises

Sneak Peaks

a little section of the dining room


our green kitchen turned red

I'm trying to find the before pictures.
So until I do I'm just gonna show a few sneak peaks.
The art is still not on the walls and a few key furniture pieces are missing.
However, the painting is finally over.
Now it's all about decorating.

the turtle and the hare

are these to twee? maybe a bit to martha stewart huh?
my laundry room WILL be this organized.
My cleaning lady will love me

the inspiration for the kitchen is based on this print and those shelfs.
hard to imagine

This house thing is taking forever.
The bathroom,living room, dining room are now done.
Just need to hang art on walls and sweep floor.
Bummer wave..need to have custom blinds made for front window.
For now using curtains just so people can't see us at night.
Disliking the curtains though.
Check back in a few days or next week when i start posting before and after photos.

Still searching for this chair. 
I'm convinced I can find a used one somewhere .
I don't want to pay full price just yet.
I also like this couch for some reason,I don't think H. does though.
