The Nashville home of landscape architect Allison Marusic features a wealth of vintage finds – from globes to antique toys to music posters. We’re loving the dark denim blue walls and pops of red, the use of old trunks as furniture – and any home with glitter ceilings is a N.E.E.T. one! More at Allison’s Flickr…

Jeni Baker is a senior in college, studying marketing and studio art, just outside Cleveland, Ohio. Her space is home to her crafting activities and quilting adventures, and her many collections – from vintage Pyrex, Dansk and Cathrineholm Enamelware to Polaroid cameras. We love her use of old food tins and Pyrex bowls as planters for her hyacinths and succulents – and the Pyrex also occasionally provides a home to her rabbit George! Jeni sells vintage sheets in her Etsy shop, www.etsy.com/shop/ironsea, and blogs at incolororder.blogspot.com.

The Dutch home of freelance artist, Anja Mulder, is a bright blend of retro wallpaper, turquoise walls and primary coloured homewares. We love her ingenious use of wire book stands for storage, zoological drawings as art, and collection of vintage signs…

The apartment of graphic design student, Hilda Grahnat, in Malmö, Sweden, is a great example of less is more. The apartment may be small, but each living area is well-defined, from the bed with its display of retro record covers, to a vintage dresser-cum-bookcase showcasing Hilda’s collection of alarm clocks and cameras. We’re loving the art wall, with its mix of old family photos and empty frames. Prints of Hilda’s photography are for sale at foreveristoday.bigcartel.com, and her blog, foreveristoday.blogspot.com, documents everyday life, thrift store finds, and analog photo experiments.

The bedroom of Idaho highschool graduate, Kara Haupt, is a sophisticated take on a teenager’s room – magazine clippings and memorabilia carefully collaging a wall, and clever use of storage: a windowseat becomes a bookcase, an cake stand for jewelry and an upcycled dresser with mismatching drawer knobs (How N.E.E.T.?! “Secrets is the underwear drawer, twirl is skirts, yaypants is of course pants and lazy is for all my lazy clothes.“)

The Portland, Oregon home of Sandi Vincent is a colorful homage to all things 60s and 70s in design: tangerine and lime walls, Danish pottery from estate sales, and geometric artwork. Sandi is also the secretary for a non-profit corporation dedicated to Portland’s mid-century modern architecture, the mcmleague.org…
