Inspire the weekend

Hello my friends, how are you?

I'm taking advantage of this weekend to combine business with pleasure and take an one day trip to an old village on the cretan mountains to examine up close the architecture of its dilapidated houses. Old stone houses that have been abandoned for decades seem to have a whimsical aura, a strong energy that makes my spine shiver. It is a pity that these houses are left to rotten; the renovation being too costly is almost a forbidden luxury to most of the citizens around here these days. Hopefully, things will change before it is too late.

On an other note, just on the verge of spring and warmer days, I thought I'd share with you a few bright, colorful shots to get you inspired. How about spending a lazy Sunday morning reading in the sunny room in the first shot? I love the kilim used on the floor and I definitely love the textures and patterns of the textiles in the second one.

Hope you enjoy your weekend! xoxo
