House Tour: A Mid-Century-Inspired Amsterdam Apartment

Name: Tolga and Tomi Location: Amsterdam, The Netherlands Size: 700 square feet Years lived in: 3 years, owned Tolga and Tomi's colorful apartment is a starter home dream-come-true. Located in a fun Amsterdam neighborhood that is filled with many restaurants and bars, it's just what the couple had dreamed of; a space that they could return to and relax from the hustle and bustle of city life. At about 700 square feet (65 square meters), the apartment has a spacious, wide- open floor plan , but also has just the right amount of spaces throughout that feel cozy. When asked what their favorite element of the apartment is, they both agreed on the French Bulldog print , "Mike." Tolga and Tomi don't think that they have the lifestyle to own a dog just yet, so a fun and quirky print of one will suffice for the time being. When decorating the home, they decided to take it slow, agreeing that finding the perfect piece of furniture is more important than filling ...

The Millennial's Guide to Moving to NYC - Jamaica - New York

East Seventh Street ."> East Seventh Street ." /> A row of buildings on East Seventh Street . View Full Caption Landmarks Preservation Commission MANHATTAN —  Millennials, be forewarned before moving to the Big Apple: You'll need a roommate, you'll likely pay at least $1,000 a month, and don't bet on settling in Manhattan. Nearly 72 percent of Millennials shared their home with someone other than their partner in 2016, according to a report from New York City Comptroller Scott Stringer . And now is the time of year that many of these young New Yorkers are searching for new digs. The third week of August tends to the busiest single week for renters because of the flood of college students coming to New York and recent grads starting new jobs in September, according to the roommate- search app SpareRoom . The city’s streets around universities such as NYU, Columbia and Barnard will soon be cordoned off on Aug. 27 for the annual rite of “move-in day,” wh...

Pets in the City: How to Make Apartment Living Work for You and Your Pup

Image
Living in an apartment with your canine companion isn ’t much different from living with a human roommate: They don't clean, they don’t pay for groceries and you're starting to suspect they don't even have a job. But canine roommates present additional , unique challenges. Arguably the biggest challenge for dog owners in apartments is having to escort their furry friend outside for all exercise — and all bathroom — breaks. That means rain, shine, sleet, snow, 6 a.m. or 3 a.m. or 11:30 p.m. — buddy, you’ve got to put on your pants. The Luxurious Lifestyle of New York's Poshest Pooches "If you’re living in an apartment with a dog, first and foremost the onus is more on you to get the dog out for all of his or her needs," says Mike Kaviani. Kaviani is the Director of Lifesaving Operations at the no- kill shelter Austin Pets Alive ! in Austin, Texas, and he says apartment living can in some cases actually benefit your pup. "As long as the owner is committed t...

Making a temporary apartment feel like home

Image
They couldn’t find the perfect antique home to buy in Marblehead, so interior designer Helen Bergin and her husband, Matt, moved out of their Boston apartment into a mid- century modern beachfront rental last September. Although they planned to be gone by spring, Helen went on a redecorating crusade so that the place would feel like home. After carefully photographing every nook and cranny so that she could remember where everything went, Bergin stored most of the homeowner’s belongings in the largest of the four bedrooms. Then, using a mix of new pieces and furnishings they already owned, she designed a quirky, colorful haven where she and Matt could relax, entertain friends, and get the hang of coastal living. Less than six months later, Bergin put everything back and the couple moved into a newly purchased home , as planned. The temporary redecorating was worth the effort, she says. “I knew we would buy a traditional place, so it was great to have fun with this,” she says. 1. At...

DC Hotels Kept Canceling On Richard Spencer, So He Had To Hold A Press Conference In An Apartment

Following violent clashes at a white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, over the weekend, white nationalist Richard Spencer tried to hold a private press conference in Washington, DC, on Monday. But two different hotels in DC canceled on him before the events were scheduled to start. In the end, Spencer, a leader of the alt-right movement, had to hold the press conference in an apartment he calls an office and part-time residence across the river in Alexandria, Virginia. Spencer, who was in Charlottesville and participated in the rally, has denied that he was one of the organizers of the events there this weekend. He was, however, prominently displayed on flyers advertising the rally. Spencer declined to join organizers at a press conference in Charlottesville this weekend, but said he would hold one in DC on Monday. He initially planned to hold a press conference at 3 p.m. at the Sofitel Hotel in downtown DC, just a few blocks from the White House. The location was kep...
