We haven't had one of these in a long time. Finally got a new camera and just cleaned my apartment, so figured id make one.
Hopefully everyone will give a little peek to their castle, since virtually every phone these days has a camera, theres no excuses :p
You can upload the images to e.g. http://picoodle.com
Heres mine:

Awesome house man, love those empty shelves.
I made a video of my room for my friend. Nothing has really changed except the sheets and a Bruce Lee poster. (Don't think I'll be embedding this one)

I was wondering where all the pussies were lol. does the girl only have one eye or is that just the lighting?
I too got a new camera it's a point and shoot nothing too pricey but I love it. If I finish cleaning my room in time I'll def take pics and post them. And of the evil pussy as well |

I would post a pic of my room but im kind of mid-pack at the moment and its a horrible mess D: |

The shelves were meant to be cat pathways without actually looking like cat furniture (got the idea from here). The cat furniture they sell in stores all look horrible, with weird colors and all. Just look at the litter boxes to get an idea.
The hallway looks somewhat neat now, though its usually covered in cat litter. I've concentrated all open storage there (i have a tendency to put items to the nearest surface). Which makes the shelves look all irregular and messy, cause the stuff in it are so random. Those black/red Ikea boxes made it look a little better, but still not satisfied.

Yea, something happened to it and it lost all vision, due to the pain it was removed. Though it happened with the previous owner (got them in feb 2010). She also has a chronic ear infection and something in her lungs. Going to the vet for a second x-ray at the end of the month. Which hopefully will shed some more light on that.

That is a really, really nice apartment you've got there Teemu! (see, that Get To Know Each Other thread is proving fruitful already!).
Mind if I ask how much you pay a month for that?
My 'crib' is just one main room and a bathroom at the moment. If I can make it look presentable, I will post some snaps. |

Thanks for the kind words Jay! Its a bought house, so i pay about 500e for the loan (for the next 15-20 years :P) and 200e for "maintenance" (the money you pay in apartment buildings for keeping the building up and running plus water/electricity). |

Interesting. That seems really quite reasonable, given the look of the size of the place. Obviously location is a massive factor. Are you near a major city/have to commute far? |

I live in Turku (pop. 177 000), and the apartment is about 2 km from the city center (where i also work). Far enough that theres not that much traffic noise, but still close enough so you can get to the city center in few minutes with a bicycle or walk home after a massive amount of drinking. I consider the location ideal for my needs. |

Also your closet is screaming for a storage system.

we dont dry...we just use a drying rack on the side, like alot of other households:
i expect there are different reasons it never made it over here, that is space people would usually want for food storage (some of our kitchens in our tiny british houses are small enough as they are!!) and often the sink is under a window, so a window would be in the way of where the drying cupboard would be
also - surely if its wood...and you're putting damp, (sometimes hot) things in it to dry then closing the doors.. surely that creates a worrying mould problem? build up of moisture and all that because they arent airing properly..? |

That's what i was thinking. Even though there is a big hole in the bottom.

| latininxtc |
might as well get a dishwasher if you want to avoid the whole process altogether. not keen on the idea of the items being over each other on the finnish invention. usually we use something like what Rowan has or when we do have a lot of stuff to dry, we use the dry setting on the dishwasher. Our whole family prefers to handwash everything. |
| Triquatra |

yea well we don't own this house we're only renting it. and yea most ppl even if they're renting paint the whole place up. The rest of the walls in the house are painted though. Every apt. u rent here will always come with white walls or ceilings b/c in most contracts it states that ppl moving out have to make sure that everything is as they received it, including the white walls so they won't get penalized for it. i'm not that into decorating as you can see from the pic lol. I used to have my walls full of posters and whatnot during grade school but stopped after that.
altho I am considering starting a project of kind of "framing" old t-shirts that I don't see myself ever wearing again, but that I don't want to get rid of b/c they carry some sentimental value and whatnot.
as far as the closet goes, spent $200 on some really good velvet huggable hangers and I've had a few break on me, but have also bought a tremendous amount of clothes again after college lol so I'm thinking about buying some more again. It's not really the closet it's me lol i'm terrible at organizing I never am one to put stuff back where they belong after I've used it.
@OneAndOnly lol i bought that shower curtain for when I lived in student housing for college. I thought I'd get it so it would impress my roommates and it did lol. |

On smaller kitchens you just leave the dishes there, as its where you keep the dishes. Also it doesnt have a bottom so the water just drips to the sink. It takes about the same time to dry there then it would on open air. You get mould problems when water goes to places where it cant dry out, which isn't the case. Also since virtually every apartment here has one, even the ones that use dishwashers, we just don't place the sink in front of windows :P |

I'm kinda terrible too. In the past 2 years I've constantly trying to rearrange stuff (few months ago i cleaned and organized the cellar for like 4 times to get more stuff in). I've figured that its easier to keep the house clean if the stuff are in their logical places. Like where i use them. So any stuff i rarely need either go to the attic or cellar. I've also bought loads of clear plastic boxes, so when i actually need something i can see it without taking everything out.

It would be handy! I'd love to have a sink without a draining board so I have a bit more room for food prep. Maybe I should build one, there is room for it! Never seen one for sale over here.
Nice, I wouldn't mind getting another myself. Scrolls look so much better than posters! Second season of GG is good but I prefered the first. Worth checking out though if you can grab the boxset on the cheap I'd say.

It happens when you live alone for a decade an the dishes don't magically turn clean after you leave them in the kitchen. Being a household choir and me being a man, i want to do it in the least time possible.
Ionosphere, really nice bathroom. Though personally i hate glossy surfaces (metal, glass, glossy paint etc), I'm all for matte myself.
Triquatra, it's all about the location. Heres one from Helsinki with a selling price of 330 000$ It has 2 rooms + kitchen and 62m2

I recently got rid of my bed, just have the mattress' on the floor. Much better to sleep and easier to clean. If i get the money, I'll probably at some point change the mattress to a futon/tatami combination. |

I have a queen bed..but only sleep on half of it as the other half is covered by books and stuff haha |

Still waiting to see Saminations crib and Jay's room in Saigon's red light district. Wouldn't mind seeing DMS's room in the retirement home either. |

Yeah those are the key words here; 'any of the homes posted'. You've not seen all the ones people didn't post :> Naturally people are only going to post what looks good, but that dosn't mean it's a representation of everyone else.

Hehe, i actually ordered few days ago a white sofa that matches with the white walls :P Filthy rich as i am, my brother pays it and i pay him back in a 4 month time frame.
My current ones are 21 years old. I've searched new sofas for 2 years now. Couldn't find any that could fit in my living room. I searched almost every furniture store here. All the sofas are huge these days. But then i discovered the Danish god of sofas, and was now in a puzzle to choose which one to buy. I finally went with their model Ghia in white leather textile. Still a bit afraid my cats will scratch that faux leather in the first year.
When i have that paid out, i'll need to get few chairs to replace the other sofa. I've been thinking of their Cubed-90 chairs. |

Still waiting for the sofa, but in the meanwhile bought an Icarus lampshade <3

The soft light actually comes from the light bulb thats, as eu regulations dictate, one of those energy saving ones. Though in the bedroom its better that way ...and often elsewhere, except when i work and need a sterile light, which i need to buy for my desk at some point. |

The bulbs usually have an indicator how warm/cold the light is (or should be in most cases). The scale basically just goes from yellow to blue. I think the "hospital" light is great when i'm doing something, working, cleaning etc. But if i'm just chilling the warmer ones are much better. |

On the left you can also see my new Full HD projector that i got yesterday :) The roof mount for the last one was custom built, so i'll need to build a new one. Hence the temporary cat proof stand. |

Year back, was just leaving for a cruise (summer trip with the office), he fell from the higher one. As you know cats land on their feet, so while hes body was rotating hes feet took a fit from the table and he hit ground on hes side. I was watching this from a side eye, all happened very quick. Called my brother to check on him while i was gone, all was well. But he never climed there as much he used to. He used to sleep on the upper shelves, never does it again. Bought some 3M antislip tape, haven't yet applied it to the shelves ...that turned out to be a longer story then i intended.
Edit: ...and to make long story longer, the Audio Pro Addon Five speakers are fantastic.

So I think Whispering will be quite happy to know that I have gone to IKEA to replace all the furniture in my room. They are in all white. But, my room is all red so it is not white on white like Whispering's racist rooms are.
Will post pics whenever I actually feel like putting together a bunch of IKEA furniture.. |

AW Studio 2 is coming along nicely this week:
This was Monday:
Last night:
Just need to get some curtains that actually fit the track that's there rather than stringing up my old ones lol. Bit more sound treatment to do as well and I might even start getting on with some new music again soon. Looks like a small room but it's really long, will be a sofa in the middle and my decks up the other end soon. 8) |

Thanks man, pretty happy with how it turned out. Just looking forward to doing the final touches and getting my decks set up, full panorama to follow. ;) Be a while before the sofa goes in though as we need to buy a new one for the lounge first! Got a bit of cash but I don't think there will be much left after doing the soffits and patio doors. |

Yes, a man needs a place to flee from real life!
My brother-in-law who is a Metal drummer built his own music room in the cellar of his new house and now plans a house bar including a nice stereo right next to it. |

It's no paradise, but this studio does the job. Great for doing artwork and uni work, and in May when my time at uni is over, I'll be a little sad to leave this room. It's not set-up for music unfortunately, and I doubt I will ever have a dedicated studio for music. However, its great for artwork and crafts. The big desk with the big monitor on it was a ?30 bargain from a local furniture store.

Well, everything is still planed so far. We'll see what real life is going to serve - especially when I already know that my oldest sister can turn to a very nasty person real quickly. But I'm still confident that this mare will never be able to finally table the stallion living within' my naturally rebellious brother-in-law at all.  |
