I told someone a while back that I’d post pics of my beige/brown/green/orange living room. I guess the green I’ve used is more of an olive than a sage, it has definite brown undertones. In any case… here it is. I have a weird style that is very clean (and in a sense, modern), but with fun mid-century undertones. I’m a grad student on a serious budget, so all of this stuff was obtained at fantastic prices! I’ve had a lot of fun doing this living room, and I’m certainly not done with it yet! :)

i’m going to get two barstools for this wall.. either bright orange or black.. (the wise owl watches over us all)

my desk is combined with a bar to pay homage to the two things I do the most.. study and drink ;)
