Their First Apartment

This is mum and dad's first apartment. Mum tells me it was very chic at the time. I like how she has roses in a crystal vase in the kitchen and they reappear again on the contact-paper-covered- TV. Either she was ahead of her time (or we're behind) - When I look closely I notice trends that have come and gone and come again since...there is a bird cage in the dining room with a table setting I'd kill for now. More flowers and plants in the living room with mirror tiles on a green feature wall and a Kartell storage cabinet (just out of view). The bedroom comes into its own and I love the sheer curtains in the spare room where her little sisters would stay.

I wonder what my kids will think of my apartment in decades to come.
