Hubert de Vinols

I saw already the work of that designer in The World of Interiors. Certainly some of you, will know his work. Here are some gorgeous pictures of his work. Ok, the flower paper is maybe too much even for me! But those rooms with another paper or just paint on the wall would be a perfect house for the weekends on the countryside :-). I love the way he uses furniture and paintings on the walls.

New York through Berlin and then to Brussels

What an exciting time we live in. For example: I am at home sick with a cold (everybody for the moment it seems). But thanks to modern technology I can read in the New York Times about a wonderful apartment in Berlin. What should we all do without internet? Read 10000 magazines I suppose, but that would be very expensive.

Here are some pictures. I think I am gonna use some for our house. We're still working on the interior design, I think it will never finish.

Back and already beautiful things everywhere

One day back from Hungary and everywhere I see wonderful articles on the net and in Blog-land.

Hungary was very nice, believe me, the weather wasn't super great but that didn't stop us.

I will post some pictures about it very soon, but I am still waiting for the pictures from friends. They took the pictures for once, it was a real holiday for me :-)

At the my friends blog Tottie stuff you can see already a preview.

Lets talk about the beauty's I found yesterday evening while I was reading my email before getting to bed.

The New York Social Diary did it again. A Maximalist, mmmm I like them. This time its maybe too much, even for me. But what a taste, somebody who dares to mix like that is really somebody with guts.

Off to Budapest to relax :-)

I am off to Budapest with one of mine friend-blogger-tottie from tottiestuff. We don't go alone we go with a little group, we have rented a house on the countryside. If I have access to internet I will do some posts otherwise it's for when I am back.

Ciao everybody have a nice week, I will even if the weather is bad :-)

Through my eyes

Today I don't take you to a french chateau or something like that. Today I took some pictures from the park next to my new office. Our last office was next the Botanic Gardens. A wonderful place designed by René Pechère I wrote already an article about this master in gardens.

Our new office is just next to the gardens "le Mont des Arts". Meaning the mountain of the arts. And on that hill it's full of art and believe me. Every possible style of architecture is there. Some examples: the Royal library of belgium, the Royal Museums of fine arts, the Museum of music instruments, the Rene Magritte museum, the center for fine arts Brussels Bozar etc, etc...

The list is so long, you can get lost there a couple of days.

But the most important, the place is such a treat for the eye. If you like 50's, art nouveau, art deco, 70's, medieval, 19th century, or flemish baroque you will all find it there next to each other. We're used to that in Brussels. Some people find it strange. Putting a calder in a fountain in front of an art nouveau building, I suppose some will find this too much!

In the big brown 70's building I also work sometimes :-) I hope everybody like this little visit of a tiny piece of Brussels?

Inspiration

Last week I discovered this very nice site on the web. Don't ask my how I found it, I just don't know anymore. But who care's the interesting part is that we all can enjoy them and drool on the pictures.

Work in progress again

Dear Bloggers,

Thanks for the compliments on my previous project. After that I decided to frame the ancient pictures my boyfriend bought this year. Last two weeks was very busy, because on top the office was moving :-s. So in the evening there was no power anymore to produce something nice on the internet. Here are some result of the framing jobs. They are sometimes 16th, 17th or 18th century pictures.

And on top of it I did some shopping and found a wonderful round frame with a portrait of a lady. The funny thing is that the wonderful blog the essence of frenchness made a nice articles about portraits. The more funny is picture number then it's our bed before we bought it from a Paris antique dealer :-). It's a small world!!!

Isn't it nice to be surrounded by such little beauty's!!!!
