It has been a great past couple of weeks. Work has been really busy for both Summer and I. The surf has been mediocre after an insane couple of months and Summer and I have fallen into a great schedule with Sydney. The schedule thing is VERY important. It gives both Summer and I time [...]

As most of you know, Stefan and I have had a hard time finding contemporary furniture while trying to furnish our house in Puerto Rico, but I just discovered something awesome!! CB2.com ships to Puerto Rico!! And they don’t even rape you in shipping fees (shipping costs are generally 10% of your order price). So, [...]

Summer and I have been looking around Puerto Rico for furniture since we moved down here. We weren’t necessarily planning on buying anything at the time, but we were getting an idea of what was going to be available to us. Just like in California, there are a lot of junky furniture store that sell [...]

I think this bookshelf/desk would look pretty cool in the guest bedroom. I wonder if it would be strong enough to use as a ladder up to the loft? Would that be weird or cool? Here is some info on this bookcase and desk combo from Crate and Barrel: “The next generation in our popular [...]
