Max's Pad

Does your bedroom have the blues? Living room have the mean reds?

A new paint job is not the answer. Neither is an Ikea binge. Don’t redecorate. Rediscover. Find your interior’s inner self. Maxwell Ryan, apartment therapist, will help.

Based on the premise that many apartments are “orphans,” Maxwell senses what ails your home and rectifies it by re-ordering the flow of space, shifting furniture, putting things in more sensible places, even helping you set up your stereo. One part feng shui, one part life coach, and a dash of handyman.

No new purchases required (except, of course, for the service — and some flowers should you ask). Maxwell takes what you already have and makes it work. Writer’s block, loneliness, and stress may not vanish for good — but darling, that chaise longue has never looked better.

Next, you might want to look into those mood swings your car’s been having.
