What is your one favorite element in your small, cool home? My apartment has two large window banks that bring a lot of light into the space. I like how it creates interesting shadows and highlights throughout the day.
What was one of the biggest challenges you faced in furnishing your small home? There were a number of challenges I had when furnishing my place. I wanted a lot of seating, but did not want to have a space crammed full with furniture. I found the coffee table with the tuck-in stools, and a convertible daybed/couch that gave me lots of seating and a place for overnight guests. I have a large home entertainment system that uses tall thin flat speakers and a roll down screen that blends into the wall and hides the equipment. I was able to do much of the work myself, found furniture on Craigslist and in neighbors throw away, and just cleaned up what was already here.
