This living room is full of mismatched furniture that is hard to find underneath all the clutter.

The closet is bursting with costumes, empty boxes and DJ equipment.
Mark Burstein has plenty of stuff, but not enough storage or style in his rented apartment’s living room.

His furniture is all hand-me-downs that don't match. His job as a DJ generates a lot of electronic equipment, disks and costumes that land everywhere.

His penchant for collectibles adds to the mess, while his utter lack of organization and large elliptical trainer make it hard to walk around the clutter in the 19 x 12-foot room and walk-in closet.

Professional organizer Gianfranco DiLuzio has a plan that will transform Burstein's disjointed living room into a clean, organized contemporary space with areas for work and entertaining.

All the mismatched furniture is to be replaced with contemporary wood furniture with glass and stainless accents. The room should be painted light gray with a dark gray accent wall behind the entertainment unit.
