Fading light …

… from a bright light. Love love love the light, the depth of field, the composition but mostly the intimacy of these photos by the very talented Daniel Farmer. Love the faded beauty of the rest of his portfolio as well.

American house in the sand dunes

Posted on Mon, 2 Apr 2012 by midcenturyjo

I find myself walking in the dunes staring at houses that front the sea from Australia to England and now I’m feeling the sand between my toes in Massachusetts. A family home in Aquinnah by Hutker Arcitects. It’s a modern take on the simple New England beach vernacular. No big old money mansion here. It sits quietly in its surroundings with its shingles slowly greying. Just a cosy, family home with a big picture windows framing what it is all about… the view across the waving dune grasses to the sea. Yes please.
