The Treehouse

This is what makes my apartment slightly different - the treehouse (as I call it). It's a loft bed that's in my second bedroom area. The room is going to be my office and the loft my guest bed area - but I'm sleeping up there until I get a bed for the actual bedroom (now the box storage room.) This loft is one of the things that really sold me on this specific apartment. The building had the other things I was happy with (specifically the clean, nice cupboards and near-new appliances) but this loft made it unique. The previous tenant was (I think) an architect or designer; he built and installed this loft (and a desk and shelving on the other side of the room). The thing is solid--almost over-engineered. The green webbing is interwoven bungee cords supported by steel chain. It's hard to see in the above picture, but above the head of the bed is a high shelf and a light. All in all, quite cozy.
