I believe in coliving as the foundational atom of society, because it’s really lovely and there’s no better way to get a lot of lovely social time without friction / effort.

In the long term, I want to live together with a family of like minded people in a space just like this one. I am extremely extroverted and spend most of my life in the living room of this apartment. Introverts welcome.

✦ us ✦Here are some things we have in common

Okay here are some photos

the kitchen
here is a somewhat outdated picture of our kitchen. idyllic, agree??
the kitchen
the tool shelf and two bedroom doors
we have a shelf with a bunch of tools and adhesives etc on it. sorry that it looks bad but it is handy! i am constantly doing DIY stuff… such as the shelves on the wall on the left. i am proud of those. i try to use light colored woods as much as i can.

the two doors accessible in the living room are the Palm room (left) and the Leaf room (right). The sound insulation in this apartment is pretty good and they have never complained about late night conversations and movies.
mr. bear in the sunlight
another random photograph. note the beuatiful sunlight and the slightly worried expression on mr. bear’s face. also note the incredible handmade copper game controllers i have affixed to the wall.
eli and ben playing a videogame
eli and ben are playing a videogame. typically you would be playing videogames with me as well, but i had to take the photo. note the console shelf i built behind the couch. i am very happy with it. also the custom controller holders!
kitchen storage
the kitchen storage is very optimized
a bathroom
we have 1 full bathroom on each floor. they both basically look like this. fancy!
plants and drip irrigation
we have a lot of plants! I use a drip irrigation system (the jug with tubes you can see). I grew some herbs in the window sill. This was very aesthetic but ultimately too annoying to deal with pests, so it’s gone now. You can also see the price gun that we use to date food in the fridge. Also you can see that it sometimes rains.

the half bath
this is our 2.5th bathroom upstairs, it is just a toilet. i have outfitted it with custom steel shelving for economical storage. i am proud of this. if you are taller than 5’10” it may annoy you to use this toilet.
the guest tent
this is a 2 story apartment. in the upstairs common area we have a cute tent with a full size mattress. we put guests in it. they love it

Past, outdated, irrelevant photos:

(dog lives with my mom now)

chiaw and mr bear on the couch
this is what it looks like when chiaw happily sits on the couch with mr bear. the couch has an extra arm and shelf next to it now so if she were to do this today, she would be even more comfortable.
playing fetch with mr bear
this is what it looks like to sit on the couch and play fetch with mr bear. if you are subletting from Iggy, he will be ABSENT
mr bear on the couch
Mr bear sits on a couch. We usually do not have a gate up but in this picture we do. Note the nice relaxing lighting, the shelving on either side of the couch, the TV (it is on an arm and can be flat against the wall too)
a drawing of a procession
i drew a procession of 3 guys and then shay added the mogger.(shay has moved out and mogs in sf instead)
the foyer
i have outfitted the hall / foyer in front of our apartment entrance with an acacia shoe rack, bench, mirror, and a nice entry rug. this is me (right) and jillian (left). we typically wear black and white when we go out.(the landlord made us put this stuff in the apartment instead of having a beautiful tasteful foyer. also, jill moved out)

thanks!
