I think what she has done in a place that won’t last her long is wonderful. I also move a lot (just because) and I know how hard it is to make a temp home feel like home. Great job!

Scal and susy, I agree 100% with both of you. I love the fact that this perfect interior is in an ordinary house in a “terrible neighborhood “. I appreciate the spareness, the simplicity of it – and the fact that it hasn’t been “done” to death. Love it, Love it, Love it.

anti-squad means you can legally ‘occupy’ the house, you don’t pay rent but a small amount of money for occupying the house so nobody can -for the time you live in this place- break in and squad the house. This is a system for house-owners to prevent damage to the empty property. The disadvantage is that you can get kicked out almost immediately, so you have to live modest :)
i think she did very well!

I am going to agree with a few other folks who commented. Although there is a barebones aesthetic, accentuated with bygone souveniers from the past, there isn’t any direction at all that takes away any type of design inspiration.

This is such a great peek, and so far, it’s my favorite.

I love that it’s not the typical ‘design’ decorate-y look, and that it’s got a sense of humor, a frugality and a really wonderful, hip, punk rock, simplicity that is definitely a new driver in what we’ll see in design. I’ve been sick of brocade and pastels for a while, and this is refreshing.

Love that fixed gear bike with the pink chain and the NY tee as decor. Kudos!
