yeah i do but nefeli's post got me thinking. the thing is men tend to love the simple/industrial look of bauhaus (i do). women tend to find it boring/sterile/dull after a while. being the married sort, i am forced to share my quarters with a specimen of the female gender. i'd live in a factory-library for fucks sakes. but i like the company.

^^ see that's what i'm talking about. funky. women seem to love funky.
eclecticism will win at the end of the day, i know, in spite of my demands for spartan environs and a functional space.
i draw this diagram. i should photograph & share. but i'm more into the inspiration seeking than instructions, so i don't know.
