Love the living room, except for the wallpaper; the kitchen is pretty but I'm not a fan of the gray. For some reason, the bedroom reminds me of a hotel room. 

 

The dining room is my favorite, the beautiful navy and the chandelier.  I love the wallpaper and the artwork. the only thing I would change is the table, a bit too much glass.

 

Thank you for posting @stevieb !!

I don't care for this apartment as is.

I might find it more appealing without the wallpaper, the art and chandelier replaced, the glass top dining table and chairs replaced, the heavy drapes in the bedroom removed, and the Kitchen needs to be warmed up..it has a coldness that I don't find appealing.

I do like the wallpaper in the dining room.

I guess I would redecorateWoman Indifferent

Well this isn't my "cup of tea" so to speak.  All wallpaper has to go but especially the livingroom and the kitchen cabinets are a no.  I do like blue so don't mind the use of that color. 

 

Appreciate you and Oznell posting these even if I don't particularly like what's shown, I still enjoy seeing them.

I can't find a thing in these rooms I like other than the rugs. I love blue, but not these blues, and the overall grayish mood of the place is just appealing at all.

Interesting. I don't like the wall coverings at all. I'm not an expert, but it seems like there's a mix of modern, traditional, and retro furnishings? I don't need every piece to match and be the same style, but it just looks a bit "off" to me. The bedroom & kitchen are my favorite rooms, but still not my preferred style.

@stevieb  The only room I kind of can live with is the dining room. I love the curtains with their dreamy, drippy flowers cascading down. I also like retro glass and mirrored funiture a lot. Black lacquer would suit me better than the blue though.

 

The living room wallpaper is nuts!! Woman LOL It reminds me of minarets, the Seattle Space needle and phallic symbols. Waaay too busy.

 

Thanks for posting. Some homes are not a hit one outta the park for me and that's okay. I still love to check them out.

I think it's the light fixture in front making the cabinets look lower at the top. If you look at the ceiling line you can see the top of the cabinets. There are shorter ones above the sink which is normal.

@Queen of shop I was actually talking about the four upper cabinets to the left of the wine fridge.  However, I should have updated my post because I figured it out later.  At the top of the first two upper cabinets, there is a white horizontal bar that I thought was wall space.  To me, it looked like some of those four cabinets were hung lower or higher than others and then the two in the middle were shorter at the bottom.  I've since figured out that the horizontal white space I saw was part of the light fixture.  I didn't even notice it the first several times I looked at that picture. Aye yi yi!!

 

But.....I didn't know what the wine fridge was either so thanks for that clarification.  I was too focused on what I thought was the unevenness of the upper cabinets to really pay a whole lot of attention to the wine rack.
