He realized that he could put together a complete decal inspired by his idol, Christian Bernard. The rooms in his place were poorly arranged with nooks and crannies, but Le Fur found use for all. In the living room he uncovered the original canvas walls under layers of white paint. Le Fur bought nineteenth century things instead of his usual 30's and 40's style. Le Fur used to just throw stuff together, but now he has done a place over from scratch. Le Fur likes to get cheap stuff, but quality stuff. He hopes the neo-gothic style will stay fashionable, but when prices get to high to keep up with the style, he"ll have to change and go to another style.
