When we're not busy designing living rooms we're busy watching them on our favorite sitcoms. It's fun to test if we're absorbing any of the interior decor while laughing along with some of our favorite characters. How many of these do you recognize? We got a 93%, think you can beat our score? Try the quiz here!

For the past few years, our office has been designing fun snowflake templates for the 12 days of Christmas. We try to capture iconic and sometimes infamous moments of the year in snowflake form. This is what we've come up with this year! If you want to cut out your own snowflakes, grab an X-acto knife and head over to our website where you can find all the patterns! Happy Holidays everyone!
Here at atelier drome, we're huge fans of everything from House of Cards to The League. When we're not geeking out over deep, exaggerated eaves or hand-crafting light fixtures, you can find us laughing to the point of tears from The Mindy Project. So we couldn't have been more delighted to see these awesome floor plans hand drawn by interior designer Iñaki Aliste Lizarralde. The architectural designs and interior decor revealed in Lizarralde's floor plans are a fun look into the lives of our favorite characters (as if we didn't already feel like Chandler and Joey were our best friends). Check out the rest here!
This installation at the Palais de Tokyo by Henrique Oliveira is quite spectacular. As she describes it, the expression of the twisting organic trees breaking free of the existing columnar structure are a form of architectural anthropomorphism. No matter what you call it, I think the result is pretty amazing. I'd love to take a walk through this space.

Everyone know that I love design with a sense of humor. These two pieces by Peter Bristol are just great...
A friend emailed me this link... if you've ever had to wade through the MEEB book (its pretty much a requirement for most architecture students), then this is too funny.
-to the non-architects... I apologize if you can't see the hilarity!
