Growing up in Southern California, there's a good probability you'd grow up either surfing and/or skating. Living miles away from the beach, but in a suburban hood with plenty of flood control emban...
While many take to traveling during the summer, we always get the travel itch when fall draws near, and we've been looking forward to both our planned travels and all the photos we'll be taking and t...
We’ve found an Austin resident who has created inspiration in renovating not just one older home---but six! It's what he's done with these six houses that’s so intriguing, though…...
This past weekend we had the good fortune of a) taking some much needed time off b) getting out of town and c) staying at the Ace Hotel and Swim Club in Palm Springs. We've been drooling over press...
There's nothing worse than being stuck in an airport for a few hours with nothing to do. You'd expect to be able to boot up your laptop and get some free Wi-Fi, but that's just not happening in all ai...
There are so many things to love about Venice. The walkability of the neighborhood, the beach, the bungalows lining the walk streets, the colorful personalities, the incredible design and architect...
While it's lovely to travel to a big city and walk around to see the sights, it's more likely that at some point you'll have to take a car around. Whether it's your own car or a rental, trying to rea...
Due to the travel theme for this month here on Apartment Therapy, we've seen a lot of great suitcase-related posts, like revamping vintage suitcases, suitcase decor on Flickr, cabinets made from suit...
Soooo dangerous: Orla Kiely's shop is a must-stop on my list...Yay! It's Friday...I've kicked the weekend off with a little Zeppelin (II is so, so good) and planning on doing a bit of shopping for fam...
Though it's still a couple of months away (October, to be exact), people around the world are already gearing up for this year's Austin City Limits Music Festival. In honor of this month's travel the...
A good friend of mine is currently crashing at his mother's house while he's figuring out his life. The house is a virtual museum to his childhood, from his high school sports trophies to his childhoo...
We enjoy living in Beverly Hills for the central location and the walkability. Measuring just under 6 square miles, Beverly Hills is small yet packed with a range of design inspiration from small du...
We're looking forward to a road trip with friends this week to Las Vegas. And while we expect the journey to be fun, road trips catch a bad rap for sometimes being cramped and overcrowded. If you're...
With great food, music and fashion, Austin's South Congress neighborhood is bursting with excitement and energy (you've probably noticed a post or two about it before). If you're looking for design ...
100 new words have made it into Merriam-Webster this year, including Apartment Therapy fave - staycation. We sure do love this term and have enjoyed sharing staycation ideas during travel and escapes ...
We've had the good fortune to call Echo Park home for three years and counting. Not discovering this eclectic neighborhood until we had lived everywhere from South Pasadena to Burbank--we finally fee...
If you've been looking around your own city for things to do that are different than more traditional activities, you should consider looking up your local breweries. Many breweries offer tours of th...
Design websites, magazines, stores, art museums and galleries -- these are all traditional sources for home inspiration. But, at least in our home, design inspiration sometimes comes from less tradit...
My travel buddy on our 10 hour flight to London from SFO. When he put on his dust mask, he asked, "Are you going to be embarrassed?" Greetings from London! It's Day One, and I've literally been on pl...
It's not exactly local to Austin, but while on a trip to visit the boyfriend's parents over the weekend we found ourselves in the position to enjoy a few visits to nearby New Orleans, Louisiana. Thou...
After last week's post about some of Austin's hippest hotels, we thought we'd changed gears a bit and show you some hangout spots that are a bit more rugged. If you want to get in a good hike while in...
It's T-minus 5 days until I head off to London for fourteen days straight of music, music, and more music...with some blogging in between. But before I go leaving on a jet plane, there are a few thin...
For some, bringing back souvenirs can be quite a challenge. Whether the items are for yourself or for friends and family, the process (to find the perfect souvenir) can prove frustrating and time con...
You don't have to jump on a plane to "get away" for an escape. The thing we love about Los Angeles is its proximity to a myriad of destinations that quickly and easily ease one into a completely dif...
A friend from college found me on facebook recently so I decided to go over to his photo page to see what he's been up to. I was pleasantly surprised to find photos from our group trip to Europe. Ev...
