Tiny Chic Rental

I stumbled upon this über cool blog called MessyNessy Chic which featured this cute and petite maison that's for rent for tourists in Paris at a price of $110 per night. Not bad huh? Also considering the location is right at the center of the highly favored city.

Conservatory 2: Morning Glow

People may not consider a conservatory as a necessity in a house. True - it's extra living space but goodness! the joy, function and feeling of well-being it must bring when one is inside it outweighs homeowners' view of it. 

Just look at this one which I am sure can be used most of the year round everyday! Personally, I would rather have this than a swimming pool!

A Southwest Flair

I saw this piece of metal sculpture of a horse in Scottsdale, AZ, around the premises of Bischoff's Shades of West. 

This is a very unique specialty store/studio in that part of the west and I enjoyed photographing the iron works, statues and other arts and crafts.The exterior was quite noteworthy, true to southwestern design and architecture - iron grills, Southwestern-style house, vibrant colors and teak doors.

This horse above must have been meant to be an Appaloosa or a Silverdust, 2 of the breeds of horses I really admire because of the distinct specks and patterns.

And, here are more photos of the exterior and other pieces...
