Creative Visualization 6.12.2010

Don't let anyone rob you of your imagination, 

your creativity, or your curiosity. 

It's your place in the world; 

it's your life. 

Go on and do all you can with it, 

and make it the life you want to live.
-- Mae Jemison

have a sweet weekend!

Pre-War Apartment In N.Y.C

This is a home in NYC.

In a pre-war building built in 1928.

When you live in a larger, with a doorman pre-war building in the city 

here are a few things that you might find;

a working fireplace, large rooms with big closets, 

beautiful old wood floors, 

built-ins, and sometimes.... iron work inside the apartment.

And most likely you will have 

a very funky (and i mean that in a good way)

old elevator with the 13th floor button removed.

Most of these buildings had no thirteenth floor because of superstitions. 

The family that lives here wanted a feeling of permanence.
They have 3 kids. And I agree,
I think that this is crucial for kids when they are growing up as well.

I love the warmth of this place.

Flea market finds fill the less expensive 

custom bookshelves made to look like built-ins

SEE!!!!

A wood burning fireplace.

How cool is that???

The fabrics chosen for this home 

were checks and stripes to add to the 'old home' feel.

The dining room has 19th century Swedish chairs.

And they have decided to keep the painting 

unframed or museum mounted  to maintain a less formal look.

It works.

This is my favorite thing.....

look outside this cozy kitchen window.

Gorgeous & strong Manhattan architecture!!!

Looks like it could be Paris. Right?

I would (almost) give anything to live in a NYC pre-war apartment.

And if anyone should have one for me....

I would prefer it to be on Carnegie Hill, or anywhere else on the east side.

Providing it is from E. 58th St. to E 94th St,

and between 3rd Avenue to 5th Ave.

Not that I am picky.....!!! hahahahahah

One Image Drew Me In

This one!!!
I loved the settee....

But on further examination...

I found this home interesting because it looked as if

Bonnie & Clyde might be hiding out in it.
*A movie set.

Well...?
Movie set or no?

I want your HONEST opinion....

these rooms were featured in Country Living.


What is your take on this place?
Likie or No Likie???

On weekends they could have 'dust mite' races.
