imtboo and I figured out where the last few pieces of big furniture are going in our beautiful view-laden sunny apartment. We actually have two "living rooms" -- one just steps from our desks: more active and alert, with morning sun and crimson-and-bamboo square cushions on the floor; and one close to the kitchen, more cozy and relaxing, with a wooden coffeetable, a corner curl-up-and-listen-to-music quarter-wedge couch piled with cushions, where we can look at the view, listen to music, or watch movies.
Both rooms have views of the sunset, the Space Needle, and the Olympics (when the weather is such that you can see). We need a panorama picture (perhaps I can do something withimtboo's camera and hugin -- thanks to evan for the tip).
We're still missing a few pieces of furniture, but I think the big picture is all solid. We'll settle a little more, hang pictures and fill bookshelves, and we have a few bookshelves and endtables still to find, but I think that this morning's work was very satisfying to us both. The apartment is beautiful. It feels good to make these decisions together with the Boo, and I can't wait until it's something we can share with our friends as well.
*"code complete" is a bit of computer programmer's jargon for "all the pieces are there, but polishing and bugfixing still remains".
