Do You Like Limestone?

And iron work?

And casement windows?

And awesome stone work and detailing??

I am not wrong...

come along with me and look at this place.

Perfect Floors

I thought that this was a beautiful space-

so much so

 that I didn't feel the need to post a room that has been decorated

and tweaked to my taste or to yours.

This is gorgeous naked.

NO?

And if you don't get to Paris much....

this is what is all around you.

Actually,

this is why you need to get out of the house more.....

and maybe get over there.

Yesterday was my birthday-

{i'll alert the media!!! hahahaha}

 I should only age like this masterpiece of a building.

Sometimes-

well... almost always....

I think it is more interesting to look at an empty space 

It is my blank canvas and I paint it in my head.

The Doors!

What can you see in this space?

I see a black grand piano 

 Charles Aznavour

  singing 

'SHE'

and pygmy date palms

 in giant oriental fish bowls on stands.

I guess I am a romantic at heart.

Well.... where interiors are concerned anyway.

XXX's

I love him!!

This is one of my favorite songs by him.

I love The Barn Rooms At The Farmhouse Inn

Fresh food and fresh interiors.

Not because I am a horsewoman.....

but I love the use of painted sliding/rolling barn doors

 in residential design.

I have used this element ( the rolling door )

in several difficult situations where a room needed to be divided

yet a pocket door was out of the question.

Also I have used this for closet doors.

It looks sharp.

I promise.

It is a pocket door {on the outside}

that adds a great deal of character to a space.

And they don't need to be white, or in the trim color of a room.

Try lacquered Chinese red.

Talk about the 'WOW FACTOR'

...... that's a guarantee! 

I love them!!!

Your thoughts?

ps

... it doesn't need to be a barn door.

I have had rolling doors done with stained glass, frosted glass.....

the possibilities are endless.

The way the door is finished and the handles

 will determine the design direction that you wish to go.

"The inn’s owners, fifth-generation Sonoma County farmers (and siblings) Catherine and Joe Bartolomei, know that you can’t start a day of hard work without a good breakfast. So I begin the day with apple sweetened ever so lightly with autumn honey."

See How Differently and Relaxed ....

The French are regarding design?

Beautiful Things easily find their place in a room.

Things are not studied to death.

The metal palm tree sculptures are personal favorites of mine.

Steal an idea from one of these rooms.

I know these spaces are not perfect,

but it really is like being in someones home in Paris.

And most importantly have a lovely weekend.
