I unloaded my UHaul UBox in record time: two hours. Then, I spent a week and a half unboxing my belongings. Nothing was damaged!
While living in my Kentwood apartment, I honed my design aesthetic. (I loved that apartment unit. I loved the layout, the light, the balcony, how and where I set up my furniture and artwork. But it took years of editing.) So setting up my stuff in my new apartment in Tucson was pretty easy. That said, these photos are only showcasing Phase 1. It’s a work in progress! I still need living room seating and a rug under the dining table. As luck and timing would have it, I purchased another dining chair, new bedding and outdoor string lights - not featured in these images. That’ll be the Phase 2 gallery. And so far, I love THIS apartment.

For now, my shoes are on display. The shoe rack is a make-shift entrance table catch-all.
The living room is the most unfinished space. I’ll come back to this in a moment.
The dining room. I've never had an apartment with a designated space for a table. I bought a knock-off Eames Molded Plastic Side Chair to complement the wooden Eames. Once a rug is added, I’ll snap a new photo.
The nicest apartment kitchen I’ve ever had:
But there’s only ONE usable outlet.
Out to the balcony…
Back into the living room…
My vision for the seating area is this table centered in between two chairs with the artwork staggered above the lamp. And I’d move the white chair outside to the balcony.
Gallery wall in the hallway between the bathroom (not featured - I was too lazy to clean it) and the bedroom:
This apartment features my first ever walk-in closet, so I don’t need a dresser.
My mattress-in-a-box is great. New bedding coming soon. For now, my yoga space is in the corner:
And here’s the neighborhood. Kinda charming with staircases and pathways.
And the view while walking back from doing laundry or taking out the trash:
