After and Before: New York room

I guess the latest term for this would be "man cave," but Rich calls his man cave the New York room, since it'll end up being a kind of tribute to his native land. I thought I'd spice things up and put the "after" -- or, I should say, "current but not done" -- picture first.



This is what it looked like for a few weeks after the carpet was removed. I referred to it for a while as the Jungian dream room, since all you'd see when you open the door is a tree, and I'd think, "Didn't I have a dream like this once?" It looked symbolic somehow, but of what, I don't know.


And then what it used to look like, a.k.a "before," right when we moved in.
