Apartment vs. House

I know that some prefer an apartment to a home and vice versa. Currently, I own a home, but sometimes wish for an apartment (especially when it comes time to clean!).

To me, an apartment has a coziness that a home doesn't always have. Or perhaps my home just isn't the way I want it yet.

While browsing through my library, I found a great decorating book, for apartments. Although it wouldn't really apply for most of my home, I get inspiration from it.


Called The New Apartment book, it has great ideas for small spaces. I especially like their idea for a banquette/kitchen area. If you are interested in purchasing this book, you can find it on Amazon for about $.70 used.

Do you have a home, but long for an apartment, or vice versa?
