One person, room by room

The name Paul K. Moseley covers one person, and every room idea on Anchordeco passes through his hands: he chooses it, then edits it before publishing. He has never worked as an interior designer and holds no license to build, so a custom bunk or built-in bed should be fixed to wall studs, and a wall you want gone needs a builder's look first.
