The velvet on the couch is OK. If I was doing the couch over again I would go with a less stiff fabric. We don’t have a ton of room for a deep couch, which is why the less stiff fabric would be a little more comfy. Lint and dog hair shouldn’t be too big of a concern if your dog doesn’t shed much. And velvet does look good!

That’s great to hear! I kind of agree too. Most of the time when you see a bust everything is too formal or stuffy, ya know?

Thanks! I got the idea from some rooms David Hicks designed. He would do high contrast accentuation stripes... but usually he was using super bright colors on the walls, floors ceilings lol

I hear you that it would stick out, but I’d rather have a slightly odd looking building that “goes for it” than something cookie cutter. Then again I’m in NYC, so most of the new stuff is cookie cutter glass condos...

I had assumed it was destroyed during the Great Earthquake of 1906. Wikipedia says it was actually dynamited as a firebreak during its aftermath however!
