My beloved Oliver. 18 yrs old and still doesn’t know how a pillow works.

I caught Frankie and Bernie bird watching (or dreaming of catio days) on the kitchen counter yesterday afternoon.

This Shaker style house on the water is a new build with an old soul. Its timeless beauty lies in its simple lines and lack of extraneous decoration. I’m dreaming of wasting time sitting on the porch watching the river flow by or perhaps I’ll be standing at one of those lovely sash windows staring off into the distance. Who cares! I’m just lost in the romance of this farmhouse by Washington DC based Jones Boer Architects.

A new year, a new fabulous location home I am dying over! The kitchen in this home is so large, there is an olive tree growing out of the island! SAY WHAT?!?! I am adding that to my bucket list. Via Shoot Factory. 

Shoes off, drink in hand, work-a-day worries being washed away by the view. If I’m lucky there is a heavy swell crashing on rocks carried on the breeze ruffling my hair. Clovelly House by Sydney-based Fox Johnston.

Over the holidays I came across this mansion in La Rochelle, France and was immediately smitten. You can’t really go wrong with “mansion” and “France” but in this case I will admit the decor could use some re-working. Can’t fault the source, architecture Lionel Coutier as he was responsible for the renovation of this 350 m2 beauty. I do think some of the colours are alot of fun and a great way to maintain a casual vibe.
