acido dorado adorns the desert
Who doesn’t like gold? I was mesmerized by this house in Joshua Tree National Park, by architect Robert Stone. Everything is dipped in gold inside and outside this trippy abode. Eeeeverything. 3 different tones of gold automotive paint, to be exact. Stone built this house (and it’s black counterpart “Rosa Muerta”–must see!) for desert enthusiasts … Continue reading
color: white vol II
Never enough shades of white! This beautiful restoration by Rosy Strazzeri-Fridman avoids the “modern” stark look of white and embraces the warm, the elegant and the timeless.

color: white…. by annette ekjord
I.love.white. And I love how Oslo-based interior designer Annette Ekjord uses white in her spaces. A lot of these are actually IKEA interiors. Who would’ve known! White interiors for me have traditionally meant Greek-island-stark-mediterranean interiors. But Scandinavian use of white is totally different, and so delicious as well. Have a sunny day :) … Continue reading

My dear cousin sent me this challenging little test for us color lovers. Try it out here: X-rite I must warn you, it gets tiring on the eyes after a few minutes, but it’s interesting to play around and find out what your eye’s weaknesses are.
