Interior design displaying Pink, Black & Grey

For me, a bridge evokes many emotions, awed by its beauty and intelligence and romanticized by the notion of fear and adventure.   I snapped this picture of the Astoria-Megler, a steel girder continuous bridge (extra awe) that spans the Columbia river between Oregon and Washington.  Currently, it’s the opening screen on my laptop.

A project, no matter the size, is incomplete without a water feature……

I learn so much from traditional Japanese architecture.  I snapped this picture of the Imperial Palace, it demonstrates a unique and brilliant architecture that beautifully juxtaposes rustic and formal materials – an earthiness with proud reverence.  

I am not entirely sure why I selected this picture as my Happy New Year post.  Except perhaps that the trims and fabrics shown are similar to entering a new year; festive, fresh and exciting. Happy and Healthy 2015!

I am really enjoying this book by Gil Schafer III.  It makes me feel so patriotic.
