Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde readers at Apartment Therapy.


As you may know, our home got featured on apartment therapy last week and like clockwork, the comments came flowing the gates of heaven and hell. You can't please everybody! LOL!


This is a sneak preview of the comments by different readers:

The lovers:

• love your chair collection!
• So creative and unique!
• its a dream home!
• Those chairs give me a warm and fuzzy feeling
• Beautiful home.
• impressed by the clean lines and organization of the home
• Great place, I love your chair collection!
• the house looks great!
• If there is a design and MCM heaven, your home would be it.
• love the colors and the combination of textures and materials.
• Wonderful home!
• There is something unexpected at every turn.
• an impressive amount of cool things
• Love it, esp the closet and bathroom
• Beautiful place ... is it located in South Beach?
• Perfect! My taste to a "T!"


The not so lovers:

• do you really need that many chairs and clocks?
• Have a seat! I have 100 of them here.
• Hoarders with rich people.
• expensive things you own
• walking into the nearest DWR and saying "I'll take one of each."
• This is a "look at all the toys I have post."
• It just felt like a DWR showroom.
• It's just missing price tags.
• is this supposed to inspire me?
• Typical designoid fodder. Wheres the actual design?
• guy is attempting to show off that he has 2 ipads
• Must be nice to have money
• a terrible looking home
• One is even inclined to wonder about the character of the owner
• a "collector" who just doesn't get it.
• It's cold, it's artificial, it's contrived



It makes for a very interesting read. I really enjoy them! We are not decorating our house to win any contest but rather to feel comfortable and relaxed at home. So far we've succeed.


Enjoy!
