http://www.rexrhino.com/condo/Dsc01593.jpg Here's the pic of our den in the new condo we're moving into next month (that's not me in it, that's my aunt). It's 6.5 feet x 6.5 feet. In it will go my husband's dark wood desk, which will hold mysterious electonic bleepy and bloopy thingys, and a computer. The rest of what's left will be my space to do up all tiki-style. So, uh, any suggestions on how to work with a space that small? The good thing is, any tiki's you put in there will instantly look bigger! The other idea is to not do the world's smallest tiki room, but instead to just put a shelf all along the wall above the kitchen cabinets and line up the tiki mug collection above there, and then just hang the tretchikoffs and Hina Rapa and other tiki art in the livingroom area... so just keep the tiki vibe low-key and not bust out the grass matting or anything (The cluttered beachcomber look wouldn't quite work with the modern design and the huge windows). Back seat designers... you may begin! |
