Daily inspiration, urban living

Open space solution in an open place. It’s an old water tower that is turned in to a  residence. It’s like living on a stage, a place that is accessible to those who are interested in other people’s accommodation & lives. Whether you would enjoy it or not, it’s an amazing creation that combines the old with the new in an exceptionally interesting way.

Daily inspiration, architecture

Modern architecture has its advantages, just like with everything else. I can not say that super modern buildings or houses are among my top favorites. It simply depends on where, in what context & moment. This pearl is located in North Bondi, in Sydney.

Daily inspiration, facade

Facades are amongst one of the best things I know. It’s a special feeling in my stomach when I see fine facades, whether they are contemporary, traditional, worn or whatever, really. I have spent loads of time, wandering around in different cities or streets to experience architecture regarding facades along streets & squares. It can be charming old houses, old schools, newly manufactured wooden houses, factories stately or just square ones, without decoration. Facades says a lot about us humans, through different epochs. It’s nice to play with the idea of how people living inside are & what they do. But let’s leave that thought for another time.

Bleak images, maybe

Bleak images does not sound particularly inspiring, do they? I guess some might find these a bit depressing. Is it a suitable description? I just felt that I wanted something less colourful & more dramatic. The lighting, colour selection & props, enhances the atmosphere in each image. I’m aware of  that everything doesn’t have to be bright & colourful to be perceived as interesting or exciting.

It feels liberating, for my part, to ignore the otherwise ordinary images that I usually choose. You know, you have your style & your preferences which you sometimes unconsiously bases your choices on. A style whom you have a weak heart for. Well, since some friends said I’m very Scandinavian in my taste, I thought I might try to challenge my self. But just so you know, this type of images are not my cup of tea 🙂

Box shaped houses

I happen to like simple square box-shaped houses & buildings. I like the simple shape that showcases exactly what you see without fuss. Angles & crannies are not my melody even if I do appreciate it because of its intermittency & charm…when it’s old, used & lived in. But, it’s like it is with preferences. And still, with a straight shape, it can look so different & express so much, that it’s hard to believe. Anyway, I thought you might like a post about nicely box shaped houses.
