2007_05_arts_harringtons.jpgEver wonder how some of Brooklyn's finest rockers live? Design Sponge takes a look at Les Savy Fav frontman, Tim Harrington's Williamsburg apartment...and it's definitely not what we expected! Perhaps more surprising than finding out Adrian Grenier insulated his Brooklyn home with jeans, is that Harrington's got great style.

At least half of the credit goes to the Misses, Anna, who says of the unphotographed part of the apartment: "we have our DSQ office downstairs along with most of tim's records and, of course, his beloved video games." Together (after getting married) the couple started Deadly Squire. The company has some great patterns for their line, which includes everything from skateboards, pillows, ties and place mats. In fact, if you like their armchair fabric, you can buy yourself a pot holder in the same pattern.

2007_05_arts_deadlysquire.pngLast month, Harrington schooled everyone on making ceviche at The Brooklyn Kitchen, part of the book launch for I Like Food, Food Tastes Good. If this man can make ceviche, maybe there are more domestic rock stars out there than we originally thought.

More photos of the Harrington's apartment, here. Leaves us wondering how the rest of the Brooklyn rock world is living.
