Flipping through a few magazines last week over a morning coffee, and completely fell {along with everyone else} for Rita Konig's West Village apartment as featured in the current issue of Domino. There is so much warmth and style wrapped up in 400 beautiful sqare feet, and the family & friends polaroid display above the fireplace mantel is such a wonderfully fun and creative idea.

Yep...I love it...what a great style in such a small place!
I am in awe of how people can make the most of small spaces :)

I absolutely love the beautiful details in pink!!
I love it too. I especially like the photo collage above her mantel. I am sort of obsessing about collages right now.
Lovely place!
I love the polaroids above the fireplace mantel
Not really feeling all the postcards/photos above the fireplace, but I love the rest! I always knew instinctively what I liked in interior design, but until I came across this blog, I had never been able to articulate it.

Look at the end table :) That's how mine looks, completely overcome with books and diddly stuff :) What great images!
Love the picture wall. I only have a smallish collection of Polaroids but I'm going to start putting them up!
I looked at this and then went and looked at my copy sitting on the kitchen table & low & behold! There was a watercolor I gave Rita to the left of the pig's rear end!
