It is snowing right now and I am loving it, let’s hope it will all be white tomorrow! Coming back to Athens yesterday we were driving through the fog and it was quite surreal.

summer in our hearts

Since it appears as though we are in the mid of winter here in Athens and with a 3day weekend coming up I wanted to bring some of the summer vibe to cheer us up. So I turned to the young very talented photographer from Taiwan, Valerie Chiang. Born in 1992, she currently resides in Raleigh, North Carolina. She first became interested in photography when she joined the popular photo-sharing website Flickr. While it started as a hobby it developed into a passion for fine art and fashion photography.

chair design madness

I have quite a lot of my hard disc space taken by images of chairs I like, so I thought I could post some of my favorites. First of all, this is a legendary image bellow from the Playboy magazine, July 1961. All these men are design masters photographed with their signature chairs and in order from left to right, they are the following, George Nelson, Edward Wormley, Eero Saarinen, Harry Bertoia, Charles Eames and Jens Risom.

That was a really inspiring, calming weekend for me as I went away and toured a bit around Arcadia. It was very cold and refreshing and I enjoyed all the walking and driving so much, and the eating too! I went to a bunch of historical villages. Following is Dimitsana and an amazing phenomenon in Kapsia, where a river ends in a kind of waterfall, where all the water disappears in the earth.

vintage loving

I have a crazy love for all things vintage, from fashion to furniture. I am always looking for sites where I can find vintage fashion or vintage decoration, even to just look at it.

I wanted to share a site of a shop, with an interesting stock of vintage furniture, art and accessories. Bloomberry has a wide variety of vintage mid-century objects in their 1000m2 showroom, which is located at Diemen, near Amsterdam, but ships worldwide.

I was in a redecorating mood this weekend and I found some paintings of mine from primary school, so I decided to put up on my wall one of them.  It’s a kind of section of an ant home, with a living room,a dining room with an enormous table, the storage room with all the food and the beds where the ants sleep.
