Reader's home

I'd like you all to meet Thiago.

Thiago is a 27 year old from Curitiba, Brazil, and he wanted to share his home with our readers. He decorated his home with vintage and industrial items and he did it all on his own. I think he's done an awesome job turning this into a hip bachelor's pad. Congrats Thiago! (To all the ladies out there reading this post -  better make sure your S.O. is not within viewing distance of your monitor or you may need to replace your grandmother's antique rosewood hutch with a tool chest, or you'll find a beer sign propped on your buffet where your Chinese porcelain ginger jar used to be).

Hi DTI!
I really enjoyed this pictures, from Thiago's home!
I found it very interesting, and like the way Thiago's home has male caracter but with that warm feeling of "home".
Brazil is a very interesting country, they have a very rich culture!
Thanks for sharing!

Yo Thiago,

Very cool place man. Is that the actual canvas painting by Os Gemeos in the bedroom? I saw that in Rio at an exhibition about 4 months ago. How'd you get a hold of it? I'd kill to have one.

Thanks,
Bill

This is awesome!!! Great job... everything has it's place, and he has made key pieces like art!!! My favourite is the snowboard above the CD rack!!!
INCREDIBLE!!!

Oh! I've been visiting this website so long time and i'm really happy to see a brazilian here. Good job, Thiago! When I read your name in the beginning of this post it sounds peculiar...

Jo and Kim, i love evrything here! Congratulations.

I am Samara from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Bye!

12 Feb 10 | Unregistered CommenterSamara Soriano

The Os Gemeos mural is fantastic & what a nice, clean masculine house. But watch your sexism, Kim! I would much rather have a big red well-organized toolbox in my apartment, than a hutch ;)

Just one criticism - Thiago, you can do way better than cheesy Ed Hardy pillowcases!! So tacky.

12 Feb 10 | Unregistered CommenterJenny

About the Ed Hardy pillow!!!
I agree that it was not a good option.
In addition to me sounds more like a joke than anything else.

12 Feb 10 | Unregistered CommenterThiago

Congratulations Thiago! Very beautiful home!

I´m brazilian too, I´m from Rio and I used to visit desire to inspire very often so was nice to see a brazilian guy here today! =)

Beijos do Rio,
Manu Cesar

Oh this is gold... a true boys pad... i know my husband would rob you for a that toilet /magazine holder in your bathroom!!!! Love love love it... the entire house is filled with so much personality

13 Feb 10 | Unregistered CommenterNadia

ok Thiago since the Ed Hardy pillow is a joke, I see the whole place in a new light. Good work. Will you be my lover?

13 Feb 10 | Unregistered CommenterAppleTree

I hope that Ed Hardy pillow is a joke!

13 Feb 10 | Unregistered CommenterStephen

I hope that when my son is in his 20's he lives in a place like this! It's great.

13 Feb 10 | Unregistered Commenterlojo

I usully to visit this site all the time. I'm from Rio de Janeiro but I live in São Paulo. We have a lot of options to decoration here.
I'm very happy to see a brasilian guy here. Congrats to Thiago and Desire to inspire.

Parabéns Thiago! Lindo apartamento!

This is actually a great job for a bachelor's pad! I'm impressed. Good work, Thiago! And a cutie, too!

14 Feb 10 | Unregistered Commenterlaurie

What a surprise, Thiago. I was looking around and suddenly a "curitibano" shows up on a post. I'm Cris Turek, I am from Curitiba too (living in Nordeste now) and writing a blog about crafts. I'm very proud too see a curitibano guy with so much good taste and position. Congrats, and hugs for you.
Cris Turek, from Brazil.

14 Feb 10 | Unregistered CommenterCris Turek

puxa vida!!! Fotos da casa de um brasileiro, e o melhor de tudo: de um curitibano!!!
Adorei a sua casa, Thiago!!! Realmente linda!

Beijoss!
