Book excerpt: In The First Apartment Book, Kyle shares brilliant design ideas and thirty simple DIY projects that show how anyone can infuse a first home with personality whether you're renting, moving in with a roommate or significant other for the first time, or are a newly minted owner eager to put your stamp on your place. The First Apartment Book is both a tour of amazing photographs from ten real homes across the country and a hardworking resource of great ideas. Kyle explains how each of the featured apartments achieves the perfect balance between cool design and the homeowner's lifestyle, with a sprinkling of influences from the resident's city thrown in. Kyle scours flea markets for functional pieces with personality and incorporates Pollock-inspired art and touches of taxicab yellow to make a small studio in New York City function as four different yet coherent rooms.o Graffiti-like dip-dye curtains and a skateboard table reflect a Seattle renter's hip sensibility. In Cleveland, Kyle creates a modern preppy space for a plaid-loving local using subdued colors and careful pattern mixing. A couple's salon-style hanging of rock posters in Nashville feels utterly unique, and Kyle's clever ideas for storing to store their musical instruments keep the duo sane. Short on time and long on style, the thirty DIY projects include no-sew pillows, yarn-wrapped picture frames, and a dresser update using a little glue and fabric. Full of bold, vibrant photos and hundreds of big ideas for small spaces, The First Apartment Book proves that no matter what your landlord, your floor plan, or your wallet says, there are no limits on how cool your first apartment can be.

Download or read book Street Smart written by Samuel I Schwartz and published by PublicAffairs. This book was released on 2015-08-18 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On a Saturday morning in December 1973, a section of New York's West Side Highway collapsed under the weight of a truck full of asphalt. The road was closed, seemingly for good, and the 80,000 cars that traveled it each day had to find a new way to their destinations. It ought to have produced traffic chaos, but it didn't. The cars simply vanished. It was a moment of revelation: the highway had induced the demand for car travel. It was a classic case of "build it and they will come," but for the first time the opposite had been shown to be true: knock it down and they will go away. Samuel I. Schwartz was inspired by the lesson. He started to reimagine cities, most of all his beloved New York, freed from their obligation to cars. Eventually, he found, he was not alone. Since the turn of the twenty-first century, a surreptitious revolution has taken place: every year Americans are driving fewer miles. And the generation named for this new century -- the Millennials -- are driving least of all. Not because they can't afford to; they don't want to. They have better ideas for how to use their streets. An urban transformation is underway, and smart streets are at the heart of it. They will boost property prices and personal fitness, roll back years of congestion and smog, and offer a transformative experience of American urban life. From San Francisco to Salt Lake, Charleston to Houston, the American city is becoming a better and better place to be. Schwartz's Street Smart is a dazzling and affectionate history of the struggle for control of American cities, and an inspiring off-road map to a more vibrant, active, and vigorous urban future.
