a subway inspired penthouse

Check out this West Village apartment designed by Adam Kushner, who was inspired “by the city he loves” to create this $1.995 million masterpiece.  Though the photos are admittedly intriguing, I think I get enough of the MTA during my commute.  What say you?

More photos here! The source article located on The Observer.

After a holiday hiatus, I’m back and have stumbled across a very timely post from Oh Happy Day!  J, lets invest in a drop cloth a la the photos below.   Our poor little dry tree is going to leave a mess behind otherwise.

xox and happy 2011!, *kim

Don’t worry J, no secrets spoiled here! Here are some fun gift ideas for guys I’ve come across this holiday season that won’t be under our tree this year (and not because the apartment building bandit got to the package before we did. boo on thievery!).  Fun ideas, nonetheless:

Geek Clock from UnCommon Goods

A *Pavement* Folding Bike from Montague

Whiskey Aftershave by portlandgeneralstore on etsy

Drying Wine Glasses

Our dish stand for dishes is a precarious situation…especially for glasses, which is why we rarely use the nice ones. But with a stand like this, I might be more willing…

Electronic mail is clearly communication delivered by Hogwarts magic which terrifies business men from the early 80′s.
