Three is a magic number. Once you get three lines together, it makes a shape – a triangle to be more specific; once you get three movies of the same story, it becomes a trilogy, and trilogies sound more official; once you and your spouse have a child, you evolve from a married couple into a family, a truly dreamlike and even scary transition. Of course, once you want to room with two of your friends or family members and they all want a bedroom of their own, then it becomes a slight issue. Not very many apartment complexes offer...

I had a tall order for the place I wanted to call home: it had to be one bedroom but spacious enough for out-of-town guests to come visit. I wasn’t sure I’d find such a place, not until I toured the luxury apartments at Onyx Glendale.

My apartment’s floor plan is called the 1B-E, a 910 square foot loft-style space with lots of storage and style. The layout is absolutely perfect for my needs. Not too big that I’m spending all my weekends cleaning but plenty of room for company.
