The next time I decorate by a colour of the year will be the first time. Don't hold your breath. I have nothing against this particular colour but it doesn't work with all the things I've collected over the years, and I am not about to discard carpets bought after hard bargaining with dubious merchants in Istanbul or Islamabad because they don't "go" with a paint colour that someone voted "colour of the year." In its place, I think the colour would be quite nice (better than this years choices, certainly). It's just that my place isn't the right place for it.

The weird shelves across the windows... why would you do that? It looks odd to me. The odd collection of wood finishes.... The pokey appliance spot that won't fit a kettle. hm... maybe I am a bit of a nitpick?

I saw the light coming through the light/airwell. It's just lovely.

Love the colour coordination with the dog's collar and planter.
