That apartment from the Shoot Factory is my friend Gavin's place. How lovely is it? It's as charming in person as it is in the picture. It's like being in a little boat (maybe it's the wooden floors, walls and ceiling?). If you're ever in London I can get you in! Ha! That apartment from the Shoot Factory is my friend Gavin’s place.

Did you actually read my post? Because I straight up mentioned the polar bear rug right under the photos. Also, WTF is this supposed to mean: <i>unless the other comments got “Rejected”</i> Seriously? Who are you to come here and suggest that I'm rejecting comments for ANY reason, much less something like THAT? Way to assume something that's completely and totally false. And you <i>do</i> realize that's not my house, right? Also, out of curiosity, did the leather furniture shown in three of the other photos also make you almost throw up? "Sorry for the crush", Mike, but if you want to have a rational dialogue about animals rights and how personal ethics transfer into the digital representation of style or aesthetics, this is NOT the way to go about it. Peace is only viral if you don't act like a ass while you're pretending to spread it. Um, Mike? Did you actually read my post?

Seriously? Who are you to come here and suggest that I’m rejecting comments for ANY reason, much less something like THAT? Way to assume something that’s completely and totally false.

However that polar bear rug (I am assuming it is real), made me sick in my stomach. Literally, i almost threw up. And it amazes me that only one person out of 43 comments even loosely mentioned it (unless the other comments got "Rejected"). Sorry for the crush, but I think the days of dead animals in our homes is over. ps. Love the peace sign as well! I agree with all of the posters above, these shots and rooms are amazing.

I'm currently trying several of the techniques mentioned. Keeping my fingers crossed...I hate to toss a completely solid antique piece of furniture. Thanks for the link Anna.

I have been seeing people wear more orange on the street lately, and i love that you brought it into the the home. I wonder if that is missing colour from my black and white room?

Anyway, great line-up of orange details in beautiful rooms (except for the polar bear rug - but the room?? OMG, the room is fabulous). Great choices - and orange pops are so much fun...

Do you know of anything (primer, paint, solution) that will remove the damp stored-in-the-basement-forever type smell? I found an antique dresser in the trash (birdseye maple, dovetail construction, turned knobs, skeleton key locks on every drawer), but it has THAT smell. I've been airing it out for a week, but I still smell it, and wouldn't want my clothes in there yet. I'm thinking of painting it all, except for the top, b'c of the odor. Any words of wisdom?
