b&w bedroom

i'm writing this on our new desk: the piece that finishes our bedroom project.

isn't the desk pretty? it's by kenneth cobonpue.

anyway, remember our inspiration?

here's how we interpreted it...

and here are a few of my fave details...

my bedside b&w photo of pops.

some serene drawings...

my siopao...

your paris photos :)

a little vignette...

still a li'l work to be done. but i think we did pretty good...

...until we will make changes to add this.

officeses

hiya sis!

speaking of cool digs, missed you at twinpopfriend's office party :)

believe it or not, this IS the office...

it's an ad agency... so the vibe is so creative...

they have a no-owned-work-stations-&-work-from-any-spot-you-want arrangement...

and the place is so swanky you'd really think it's a cool lounge!

to top it all off, they have a 'zen' room for anyone to destress...

now doesn't that office make every other office seem so uncool?

perhaps not as cool, but just in time, i've finally finished up our home office with the new 'recycled wood' shelves...

i thought the red plaid chair would match the look... (and flower too hihi)

painted the walls a dark charcoal...

and my fire engine red drawers fit in quite well too, i think :)

will install a dvd player, so we can hang here... come over soon :)

not to be outdone (hehe), spruced up our office with this... a parol made of rubber from rubber slippers.

it was actually given by one of the messy bessitas... awww *touched*.

yun lang.

happy surfing! (only on the web for me har har)

pinning up

thanks to my 33rd celebration,

i have more brooches for my bed.

teehee.

yun lang :)

the big reveal!

i'm finally done with my project!

here's the 'before':

the bathroom...

this is the focal point of the room... so the new room had to double as a movie room, and a hotel-like guest room (oh and a multi-bed grandkid's room)...

these were my key pieces. they were my absolute favorite pieces in the room...

the plan...

and here's the 'after':

this daybed is both a queen-sized bed, and a comfy couch for the projector... there's a pull-out under too.

the sofa is the old one but redone in different fabric... the ottoman i bought and reupholstered too... it opens to a bed too!

i cut the desk shorter... and converted it to a dresser/desk...

we neatened up the screen area, and added some gold baskets for the entertainment center.

the whole room...

the bathroom was expanded...

we used the other end of the desk for the sink... plus added new mirrors...

amenities ala-hotel...

and a chandelier for the throne...

yun lang :) like it?
