This 300 square foot apartment of São Paulo design boutique owner is undoubtedly a testament to well planned space.  After thoroughly gawking and appreciating the floor to ceiling curved bookcase walls, do yourself a favor and feast your eyes on some of the unexpected decor elements that can easily and successfully be DIY’d.  Like the crib wagon, these are simply brilliant turns of ordinary materials. DIY Disasters–my foot!!The show stopping bookcase walls.Lots of white color racks with books and toys set aside.

Check out the graffiti painted oil drum used as an art pedestal. Easy, clever, very chic.

A unique bookshelf with an old red rotary phone on the left.

Lacquered (or just hi gloss) reddish console used for a modern flat screen stand. Getting that gloss just right can be tough, but man is it worth it.

Living room with T. V. unit, couch, and painting frames.

Always cool, a clubby turntable and a motorcycle as art.

A living room with a red couch and a blue motorcycle, a row of dj turntables.

Simple 3D hidden escape tunnel art for a quick getaway. 

A modern minimalist bedroom with hardwood floors and a bright red cabinet.
