the next designstar?

I haven't been blogging or browsing Rate My Space lately due to a lot of commitments, meetings and vacation prep, but I'm so glad I checked out the main page this morning.

Tom (aka "naddhee"), a late 20-something grad student, has posted his first apartment in L.A. and it is amazing. And it's the top ranked and most viewed space.

I'll just show a couple photos here because it's well worth your time to go and view all 12 photos and read each description. What Tom has done with $1,200 at IKEA, West Elm and Home Depot - and boundless creativity - will blow you away.

Tom says, "I also made all the weird art pieces on the walls (~$30 each) from styrofoam and snap-off blade knife." I would say weird is a poor choice of words!

Enjoy Tom's space here and don't forget to rate it!

Is he going to school for interior design? If he isn't, he should!

Thanks for visiting my new blog, and adding it to your blog roll! I'm really loving it! :)
