White painted floor, back room. « Door Sixteen

http://www.doorsixteen.com/2009/01/26/white-painted-floor-back-room/#comments The floor in the back room is finished, and it is beautiful. I couldn’t be happier. What used to be the dirtiest, most neglected and depressing room in the house is now unbelievably peaceful, clean, and fresh. I saw the floor in the daylight for the first time on Saturday, and it was like one of those dreams you have where you discover a room in your house that you never knew was there before.

http://www.desiretoinspire.net/blog/2011/6/15/c-designs.html Interior designer Craig Kettles of C designs can take a really crummy house and turn it into a comfortable and timeless space - there are before and afters on his website that are quite impressive. And his kitchens, with a bit of country charm, are fantastic (LOVE the industrial lighting he seems to use quite often).
Non si conosce né il periodo né il luogo in cui l'ombrello fu inventato. Alcuni pensano sia nato in Oriente dove, fin dalla preistoria, in Cina è legato al culto dell'Imperatore mentre in Giappone era elemento di protezione per i Samurai ed ora è simbolo nazionale; nell'Egitto dei Faraoni l'utilizzo era consentito solo ai nobili; nella Grecia classica era utilizzato prevalentemente dalle donne nell'ambito del culto di Dioniso, divinità della vegetazione legata soprattutto alla pianta della vite ( quindi alla vendemmia ed al vino ) ed all'edera , simbolo di fedeltà, mentre durante l'Impero Romano era usato come accessorio da seduzione dalle donne più ricche. L'ombrello è un oggetto antichissimo che ha avuto durante i secoli diverse funzioni ma, fino al Settecento veniva usato dai nobili solo per ripararsi dal sole (infatti il termine OMBRELLO deriva proprio da OMBRA) ed era portato da un servo; per ripararsi dalla pioggia si usava un mantello con cappuccio. http://designofsoul.blogspot.com/

Over the past seven years, at our creative agency, Access , we have worked with a number of residential and commercial property developers from Abu Dhabi to Sydney, helping them with development and strategy. Yet we see so often the sad sight of yet another mediocre building going up. We see city councils approving mediocre design and we see cities looking uglier because of it. We see property developers rushing to get their building up, wanting to make a quick sale and profit, and not really caring or thinking about the aesthetics of the building. Does the building enhance the surrounding area or make it worse? Will the building still look great 10, 15 or 20 years from now?

Today we take a virtual trip to Portugal where we will take a peek into this stunning country home in Palmela , which is not far from Lisbon. This is the refuge of interior designer Monica Penaguião . The building itself is simple and rustic, it’s the mix of modern furniture that gives color to the various rooms. The lounge area (top image) is stunning.
