The videos are an excellent addition.

Thanks Butch! I've got some dovetailing videos coming up soon. Should add another dimension to this format of showing the build process.

This is not cool furniture nor is it an example of fine design, but for my small apt in SF it'd offer extreme utility: Can anyone eyeball who makes this narrow storage unit? I'm hoping someone will recognize it. I've tried all the Google methods and no luck.

Thanks in advance.

I don't know where it's from, but both the storage unit and the rug look very, very Ikea-ish.

Ikea shoe storage.

Yup, you guys are right. I believe that's vintage Ikea. I can't find the model anymore so I suspect it's discontinued. Dang.

If the inside is designed similarly to this then I am not sure the unit would full-fill your needs unless you planned to store shoes in it.

yeah was going to say that too. Based on the depth and the way the handles are positioned I think it's a shoe storage unit so unless you redo the insides, it's probably not the kind of storage you had in mind.

The Kips Bay Decorator Showhouse is up at Madison and 61st. The usual mix of decorator gone mad rooms. Well worth a visit, if only to see what the inside of 40M townhouse is like.

Well, this is Styleforum, where people have custom-made Burmese teak cabinets to store their collection of handmade shoes...

That NYC design expose is vomit inducing.

It's like a couture show. No one actually wears that stuff, but it trickles down into RTW. In this case I found a few things I like.

Also cool to be in a 5 floor mansion at 61st and Madison

I really like the look of this.
