the apartment | design

i take little credit for the design; it's all lea and her mad design skills. but she got me and what i like:
- white
- clean surfaces
- minimal clutter
- low budget

working within the unit i picked out
- tall, exposed concrete ceilings
- light floors, cabinets, and countertops
- floor to ceiling windows and LOTS OF NATURAL LIGHT

:D

p.s. listen to this while browsing!
