In February I posted about our friends rakin’ in design for free for their new home. They buy, mark up, sell with a profit and buy more design until at one point they have earned back their investment and can decorate their home with top-notch master pieces by the likes of Mies van der Rohe and Le Corbusier.. for free! Well, the furniture that is. They still had to splash out for the bathroom and kitchen, but with all the money saved on furniture they could afford a bit more on those, and it shows. They are hosting a house-warming party this Saturday, and I can’t wait to ogle all that design. For those of you not on the guest list; here’s a sneak preview.
