A+ dorm decor: Designers offer tips for a hip college home | Jacksonville News, Sports and Entertainment

When Young Huh left for college in the 1980s, she brought “one giant poster of The Cure, bedding from the local bed-and-bath store and maybe some desk accessories.” Like so many Gen-Xers, her one creative touch was asking a supermarket for leftover milk crates to use as bookshelves. Now an interior designer , she has helped her own children decorate their dorm rooms, and she’s amazed at the design expectations among college students . “It’s a level of decorating that did not even exist in my world view when I was in school,” Huh said. Today, there are lots of products “that cater entirely to the college crowd,” she said. Interior designer Jon Call sees the same phenomenon: While his main business is designing luxury homes in Manhattan, he also gets asked to design college living spaces . “This new generation has grown up under the influence of home magazines, HGTV and the virtues of ‘ democratic design .’ They understand the value of creating unique spaces for themselves,” he sai...

ICYMI: Al Capone’s Park Slope Home Is For Sale

Image
PARK SLOPE, BROOKLYN — If you've ever wanted to live in the old Brooklyn home of a notorious gangster, you've got a chance to do it. The Park Slope home where Al Capone used to live is up for sale, and it will only cost you a cool $2.5 million to move in. Capone grew up in a nearby building on Garfield Place, according to realtor.com, and moved into this listing in the early 1900s. "If he had lived here today, he wouldn’t have to go into the rum-running business," listing agent Bren Salamon told Patch . That's because Capone could make some serious dough from the two rental units attached to the condo, which could bring in a pretty penny in 2017 Park Slope . Anyone who moves in, though, won't be looking at any old relics of Brooklyn gone by. The home, as many are in the borough these days, was completely renovated by an investor about a year ago. The main townhouse is 2, 980 square feet spread over two levels. Along with three bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, t...

Metal Locker and Filing Cabinet Inspiration

It's not that anyone forgot that lockers and filing cabinets exist , it's just that they aren't used nearly as commonly as they ought to be in my opinion. They're affordable (to buy new or find used at thrift stores) and you can store lots of different things in them. They're DIY'able (hello, paint one a bold color!). They not only fit in with a lot of different design styles, but they offer up a heaping dose of industrial vibes to any room they live in. And let's not forget the most important element; most are made of metal, which means they are perfect for magnetic decor ideas . I was reminded again of lockers' beauty and functionality in a recent house tour : A Quirky, Industrial Modern Apartment in Michigan. Rachael Barlock's rental house uses lockers in a few different rooms. In the living room, an unassuming white locker (that she found thrifting) blends into the background, but is tall and provides a great opportunity to add decor (like a...

Maybe you’re obsessed with Lily Pulitzer, and you want a colorful, preppy room. Maybe you’re a creative artist, and you want to use lots of fun prints and photographs to show off your style.

A boho dorm room is so aesthetically pleasing that even if it isn’t exactly your vibe, you’ll be tempted to copy it anyway.
