Fabulous Bookcase from Tema
We are loving this bookcase from Tema. It's huge (75" tall, 120" wide) and it's so cool-looking. It comes only in pure white. Because of the size, we thought it would be great if you have a large wall that you need to fill-- like in a loft perhaps?
Sorry for the quality of the picture, we coudn't get a larger image from the manufacturer.
Most importantly, this bookcase is really inexpensive. The list price is $888 plus shipping (we can help you get it for less). Email us if you need help.
Loving America
We haven't posted for a while. Mainly because it has been raining dogs and cats here in LA. We LA people are like cats, we don't like rain too much. We just stop functioning! The other reason why we haven't posted is because we've been busy launching our new sites and going to the Vegas market. We were so hoping we'd find great things in Vegas for you, but oh my God what a bore it was! There was nothing new, nothing inspirational.
But more on that later...
We found something we just have to share with you today. It has nothing to do with decorating really, but it's a blog with some really good writing. This blog is called "American In Short" and it is written by Tim Sullivan, the translator for Garance Dore (a very popular fashion blog).
The blog is about America--told through stories and pictures.
Here is the description of the blog:
"Our stories are the most important. When I arrived in France, I found that the French knew the story of America to be Starbucks and McDonalds. There is more in there, in the States, a liberated spirit that was engrained during the Revolution, doubled by Jefferson, sung by Walt Whitman, kept together by Lincoln, built through dust bowls and depressions, breakthroughs and downfalls. It is a subtle spirit alive in diners and toll roads, in cheap coffee and giant redwoods. These are the stories of our wars, our peace, our land and our people. As I stepped foot on foreign soil, I missed these stories and saw how just engrained the American Spirit is within me.
So here are stories from the America I miss, the short stories in Jersey diners, short anecdotes about Truman’s favorite toilet, short recipes about turduckens and short explanations of why such things exist, and just general attempts to approach the beast that is American culture and history in whatever way seems necessary. And they’ll be short. Did I make that part clear? This is my America, the America I still see and the America I want so desperately to always exist."
Check it out. You'd love it!

Replace the concrete with the smaller size is not the right solution for small savings, not worth the resikona. The greatest savings is 'delete' activities 'loading plug' construction because we do not have a good design plan.
I noticed the condition of the client. If the client funds is limited, I will design the house with the concept of gradual construction. If the land is already an old building, the old buildings that I always try not dismantled in order to save costs.

Right method to get ceramic tile flooring-by HGTV
Getting ceramic tile flooring can be a daunting task to accomplish. For making this process easy, HGTV presents right method to get ceramic tile flooring. The top ticks and tips for installing ceramic floor tile include:
• Bigger is not necessarily better however, it is definitely simpler. Bigger tiles are easier to install than the small ones. Large tiles commonly are used for the bathroom walls and great for other rooms and kitchen too. The small size tiles will take much tile to set.
• What is not visible, may hurt you. If you do not have flat sub floor, you will not have a good install. Self-leveling sub floor compound is great as well as east to install. Various other options are cement and plywood backer board.
• Squaring the room is extremely simple. The finest way to square a room is through using 3-4-5 triangle. Measure about three feet against a wall, four feet from the room’s center and link the two lines for making a triangle with five-foot line. Mark off the lines through snapping the chalk line along with measurements.
Also, fully use the sticky situation. Thin set not just keeps the tiles on floor, but also it is the best way to make up for small imperfections in sub floor. Numerous thin sets are there for all tiles application, but for the ceramic tile, utilize latex modified thin set. The best part about latex modified is that it required only water. Always keep in mind to mix only what can be used within an hour, or else the job will become tougher.
