    Love everything about this: although the transformation is very feminine, the black, brown, and white colors provide a masculine balance.

    Pia,

    I love what you did with the apartment (and a rented one too!) and to read about what you’ve done and see the pictures on the “Before and After” photos on Design*Sponge is totally inspirational for a design student like me.

    What a beautiful and inspirational home. I love the heart of fairy lights at the top of the bed! This is something I’ve been meaning to do in our bedroom for a while. We decorated it this weekend, so now all I need to do is find the right lights! :)
