My Christmas Wish

Hey everyone! Thanks so much for the great comments on my last post. All of you
are so supportive. Actually, that's why I feel comfortable sharing my
feelings, because I know you all will be so kind. I will be on the road today and
with family for the week. I'm not sure how much posting I will be able
to do, so I'm leaving a Christmas treat for all of you. I love Judy Garland so
much, and this song is just perfection. Hope you enjoy it.
Merry Christmas to all my readers, fellow bloggers, and friends!
Love
Carolina

Can't Wait For Sunday


Normally, I save music videos for Sunday; but I had to share this today! While reading The Pursuit Aesthetic (A fantastic blog!)
I discovered Vampire Weekend's video. Love it! Maybe it will make Hump day go by a little faster:)
One more thing, check out the incredible guitars in the video. Are they vintage, I wonder? Don't know but they are cool.

Look Up!

Commercial spaces are such a great place to get design inspiration. They are often very bold and adventurous. One of my favorite things in commercial spaces is the attention given to ceilings. No boring white planes of emptiness!
This beautiful Spanish restaurant does an amazing job of making the most of the large expanse above. Its interesting how subtle the rest of the decor is. The intricate angles of the ceiling are such a focal point, the space doesn't need much else. Love it!
I realize most of us can't tear down our ceilings and build an entire new shape, but there can still be a lot done. How about at least painting them a more interesting color than white? Also, add details like antique looking medallions coupled with modern light fixtures. That's a personal favorite!
One more thing! I'm crazy about the hand drawn pictures on the restroom doors. Doors as art? Who knew?
