House Building White Out: A Light Filled House in France

House Building

A few weeks ago, I wrote about my current love of blue. I also asked what colors some of you were inspired by and got several great responses. Ms. Joni of Cote de Texas mentioned loving white, and I got to thinking about how much I love white too. Years ago, I wouldn't be caught dead with almost anything white; but now I can't get enough!
I find as my life gets more hectic and with more demands placed on me, I love the quietness and simplicity of white. When used in decor, white offers room to breathe. It lightens up any space.
Here is a wonderful example! White stones, stucco, and whitewashed woods blend beautifully with soft paint and floor colors. Its like a little piece of heaven:)


I'm not certain if this floor is slate or stained concrete, but I love its warm depth and patina. Pairing it with white walls and furniture shows that white can be warm, exciting, and beautiful.

House Building Boutique Style

House Building



Having never been to Paris, I imagine it has more amazing boutiques than any other place in the world.
For now, I can virtually enjoy the simple and dramatic showroom of Damir Doma.
I'm particularly infatuated with the beautiful marigold color draperies and chair!
P.S. I found these images via a "new to me" blog called Childhood Flames. The writer has a great style!

House Building Guerrilla Preservation

House Building

(Look who's back! I apologize for my LONG absence. We went out of town and I assumed
that I could keep blogging, but as it turns out; I had virtually no internet access.
What a nightmare! Thankfully I'm home again).

One of the most fascinating blogs I have run across lately is called "The Kingston Lounge".
The writer's objective is to document amazing but forgotten buildings. The photography
featured on this blog is gorgeous and the interiors of the dilapidated buildings are surreal.
They feel like a view into another world. Just love it.



Several of the photos are now for sale in both limited and unlimited editions.
These would be a great addition to any collection.
