It was a simple appartment with white walls and no personality when we moved in. But a few coats of paint and creativity turned the little two beadroom condo in Long Beach into a stylish, up-town abode.
We first did the kitchen; it was small and easy to handle. The walls are a copper green foux finish with copper accents. KC insisted on getting a black refrigerator despite the premium price that goes along with any appliance that's not white. Now that I see the finished room I'm glad we went that direction. The livingroom was our next task. Feeling conficent from a succefull job in the kitchen, we knew the larger room would cause no threat. Wrong! We re-painted that stupid room three times before getting the color right. We finally had to go to a workshop at The Home Depot to figure out what we were doing wrong. |

| Originaly set out to be a room with Asian theemed accents, our plan has changed towards a more African Safari look. With no direct sunlight, the room is dark without the various lamps and candles we have stratigically placed around the room.
A picture you can't see is of the company lounge, which resides directly behind the livingroom and beside the kitchen. Built for a diningroom, we have opted for a quaint sitting area with chairs, lamps, and tables. It's a perfect area for when guests come to visit. Click the main photo above to see larger pictures of the living room and kitchen as well as a description of all the elements which make up the rooms. |
