		<description>What a gorgeous loft! I love how you&#039;ve hung so many pieces of art without making a hash out of it (as I usually do).</description>

		<description>I&#039;m intrigued by the room divider/headboard and was hoping you could elaborate. Is it built in to the architecture of the room or something free standing? Is the ledge above the bed where you have the lamps and books a store-bought headboard or is custom made? I think it&#039;s brilliant but I can&#039;t figure out what it is, exactly...</description>

		<description>Wow, I&#039;m just seeing all these lovely comments now and I&#039;m incredibly flattered! Thanks so much for all the kind words.

For the record, my pack-rat tendencies are not usually this well-contained. Jeffrey Teuton, the gallery&#039;s Associate Director, and Kika Gilbert, JBP&#039;s administrative empresario, worked hard to rein in all my stuff. Such lovely results! I am grateful.

I&#039;ll try to answer the questions... let me know if I&#039;ve overlooked anything.

- The sideboard is Danish, vintage, but I&#039;m not sure of the designer. I got it from White Trash on East 5th St. (They have a taller, gorgeous one there right now.

- The headboard was part of a platform for the bed that custom built into the space. It&#039;s just sheet rock that&#039;s been finished &amp; painted!

- For framing 20x200 I always recommend getting custom mats cuts, since image dimensions vary, but always for the same sized frames. That&#039;s what makes that wall full of 20 prints look visually consistent... if you look closely, you&#039;ll see that it&#039;s a mix of square, vertical and horizontal works in variable sizes. The framer I worked with gave me a good deal on the actual frames too, since I did all 20 at once, so they&#039;re all custom. If you&#039;re building a collection slowly, I suggest picking a simple frame style from West Elm, Crate &amp; Barrel or IKEA and getting custom mats cut for each new piece you buy.

Again, thanks for all the wonderful feedback and HUGE thanks to Jeffrey, Kika and of course, Youngna who did the photos — they made my place look so good!</description>
