admirable, but coco loco (bathroom edition)

living is a city means space is small. so admirable that this architect wanted to find a space saving design for this studio apartment... 



but...a bathroom that pulls out directly into your living space?!



who wants to poop their living room?! what do you do when you have guests?! verdict: coco loco.

my new obsession

is the very cute iCamp, trailer camper. 

unfortch, it turns out they go for about $15,000-$20,000 so not quite in the cards. 

then again, it's about half my rent - think i can get away with this on the streets of new york?

it was a good idea at the time


what was described as: "Apple's most architecturally innovative store, Apple Store Fifth Avenue features a stunning distinctive 32-foot glass cube entrance," has turned out to be a humid sweatbox of condensation in the summer, hasn't it? oops.

how very true


somehow, i'm irate about the price of gas even though i don't have a car. yet, nyc rent seems totally reasonable to me...

chez costanza


while the other fish and the flame are 'tenting it up in tanzania,' this fish is currently in some bizarro real estate dealings with estelle & frank constanza. i seriously feel like i am on an episode of seinfeld. either that, or this is going to be the start of my screenplay called, 'the sublet'.

ah, house hunting


i forgot how coco loco the NYC real estate market is...case in point: call me crazy, but shouldn't the bedroom of a 'one-bedroom apartment' actually be able to fit a bed in it? not even a twin. otherwise, not a bedroom. - maybe walk-in closet, but not a bedroom.
