Scandyna Minipod's. Very hard to find on ebay or craigslist. Hard to find it in general.

I live in Gastown in Vancouver. The building I'm in is a warehouse conversion that's originally a hundred years old.

Gastown's an interesting place to live though. IE, Stussy and Goodfoot are all less than a block away from me, plus it's always entertaining to have the meth'd up crazies yelling as they drag their shopping carts down the street at 4 in the morning.

is that the shower shown in the bottom left picture? love the layout.

Yo, has Lowrey posted up in here?

Yo, has jane posted up in here?

[Kane]

Yep. The biggest expense during renos. Black slate tile, 10" rainshower, fits 9 and somewhere there are pictures to prove it.

[poly800rock]

is that glass covering the shower? or is that just a walk into the curtain? either way, amazing place

[mlproject]

fuck kane, that place is amazing. does the shower stall have the vanity/toilet built into that same cove? i love raw space like that... super versatile.

[dane]

i know chicago when i see it. what neighborhood is that? i miss that city so hard

[Kane]

Heh, I'm now paying for my extravagant renovations. Unfortunately, I didn't make the shower/toilet one single "wet" room, though in retrospect that would have been an excellent idea. Yeah, the first few months, I went through a bunch of renovator's remorse.

Glass for the shower will come in time, as will a little platform leading up to the shower. I plan to cover up the exposed pine at the bed platform with some really nice Brazilian Black Walnut I picked up ridiculously cheap, and do little touches like floorboards and painting the exposed pipes.

Got curtains and some nice hardware to hold them up just a week ago, and putting the rest of the stuff together. Baby steps.

Eventually, when I'm done, a 50" LCD could be had for cheap, then that goes on the wall.

And before that, I want a Hancock & Moore sofa

[mlproject]

fuck yeah... classic rivets and all

You cats better step your game up. Party Pooped is killing this thread with his bedroom and living room pics.

[BrokenGlass]

My new SF studio, tiny.

I'll post an update with pics of the whole place when I get furniture and things.

haha, i have the same bed. What color/make are those sheets. Im getting really sick at looking at my red and blue bed sheets while the rest of the room is furnished with everything in wood color and white walls, except the carpet is blue (huge mistake when i chose the color as i didn't plan ahead about how i wanted the room to look)

[wchien]

the sheets are from MUJI, an light aqua blue color, super comfortable and great quality

[Lucas]

[mlproject]

that apt is way to clean.

[Yardsale]

shit it is the malm, i should have known. I need to replace my old bed, fat bitch broke it

it was ikea as well lol

[Egpt]

wow, this is a shit load of money in furniture alone if they're all authentic

[murdered out]

^yea props on the eames stuff.

[sarcasticone]

Actually, only the Noguchi table would be the real big ticket item. The other stuff would be no more than some of the clothes people on here buy.

[murdered out]

^ someone school me on repros..

is herman miller 2legit (good)? or is it frowned upon..

depends. herman miller contracts different designers. the ray and charles eames pieces that where done years ago are some of the most iconic pieces of furniture design.

ive seen some higher quality repros, but even those still come at a price. i personally wouldn't feel comfortable paying such prices for a fake.

[larry3]

Vitra is also an option for Charles and Ray Eames stuff. Has ended up abit of a cliche though which is such a shame.

this nani marquina carpets are nice to match your eames chairs

[the Repeater]

Miller, Vitra, Knoll, et al.

Don't go with other production, usually it is copies or not officially licensed. Keep in mind all the designer of the furniture does/did was come up with the original prototype, sometimes not even that. It is contracted by a manufacturer to actually produce the piece.

Check out the Feb issue of Dwell, it's the PreFab issue and has a lot of great homes with good outlines and contact information about the interiors.
