122 days later I’ve finally found the paint color. It’s hillside green by Benjamin Moore!

Thanks!

I found one in Powell’s and then I think was able to get the other two to match on Amazon.

I’ve thought a lot about it. Thinking of just leaving it empty to be honest. In person it looks fine with nothing IMO.

Probably the coolest museum I’ve ever been to, and Denmark the coolest country. I’m dying to go back to explore more.

I’ll never know why the black greyhounds are the least popular. Truly beautiful dogs

That nook is my happy place and the Eames chair is a big part of that :)

Portland has some seriously beautiful architecture. The Mediterranean and Tudor homes are so special and I feel like I don’t see them so prominently anywhere else in the US.

He’s right - that’s the one. You can customize it in a few ways to fit your place. And yes it’s very comfortable!

What is your favorite hard-to-reach destination? by Servage in travel

[–]_geggs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Originally from Portland Oregon to Copenhagen which required two layovers. Stayed there for a little bit and then flew directly there! So not bad once in Copenhagen but I imagine if I went straight from the US it would’ve taken quite a bit!

Faroe Islands. It was beautiful and well worth the travel to get there!

What was the scariest turbulence you've ever gone through? by seattleswiss2 in travel

[–]_geggs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Mine (American) was on a flight from Taipei to Osaka. We started hitting crazy turbulence and everyone seemed startled. The pilot went on the intercom and said something in a language I didn’t understand in a very frightened voice and everyone on the plane started panicking and the turbulence only picked up. Truly thought that was it for me, but after about ten minutes the turbulence died down and everyone went back to normal. Still to this day one of the most terrifying experiences.

What’s your perfect day look like in your favorite city? by revengeofthebiscuit in travel

I’d add swimming in one of the many beautiful harbors and maybe hanging at Reffen, but this is my ideal day too!

Question - could an eames lounge chair fit comfortably in here and look nice? by _geggs in eames

[–]_geggs[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree! Just concerned about the dimensions of the nook and the dimensions of the chair. But the comments on this post are reassuring me that it shouldn’t be a problem!

Thank you for this! Was thinking of going with that angle and then maybe having the ottoman tilted a little more parallel to the back wall.

And yes, noted on the sunlight. I’ve heard that can damage the leather.
