Lost in Time at Casa No Tempo…
…I’m lost in time at Casa No Tempo…and I may never return…an hour south of Lisbon, I find pristine landscapes filled with oak and olive trees. Casa No Tempo is a family farm which has been in the same family for generations…the home has undergone a recent renovation by the architect Manuel Aires Matus.
Horesback riding…
swimming in a pool that is spread with a sand colored plaster right up to the edge…
visiting in comfort and luxury…
breaking bread with friends and family…
reading by the fire in a cozy nook…
views from rooms with massive windows of cork trees, pastures, wild fields, dams, ponds, and streams…I’m spending the night…
…and beginning all over again. It’s ok, no need to look for me…
It’s Raining, It’s Pouring…
…yes, it is raining in Chicago…The Pour, a raindrop chandelier installation, by Design Haus Liberty in New York City, is much more appealing…
What’s Your Line?…
Island Residence, Edgartown, MA/Peter Rose + Partners
All Together Now…
…may your world be in sync today…happy Tuesday.
Ann Hamilton’s ‘the event of a thread’ installation at Park Avenue Armory. Hamilton is a new member of the American Academy of Arts and Letters.
Arete…
…my favorite word in the dictionary, arete, means excellence. André Simón of A/STUDIO , submitted his recent work, MIKA 350. The attention, care, and sensitivity used by Andre, both in the design and in the film, is beautiful. The word, arete, is fitting…André captures the employment of tools, the utilization of sturdy machinery, the sound of rain, and the falling of wood shavings to tell the story of the master craftsman.
DESIGNED BY ANDRÉ SIMÓN…PRODUCED BY A\STUDIO…PHOTOGRAPHY BY LINO ESCURIS

Time Out…
…a textured backdrop of brickwork, concrete, plaster, and moldings…oh my! Off we go to visit renowned chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten’s newest culinary destination in Shanghai. Situated within the prestigious Three on the Bund, Neri & Hu’s design is drawn from the rich historical context of its locale.
Going to the Bus Stop…
…find inspiration on your way to your destination. Sou Fujimoto, Smiljan Radic and Wang Shu are among seven international architects invited to design bus stops for a tiny Austrian village in exchange for a holiday there…good deal!
This is Mine, Ok I’ll Share…
…wow…Oak Pass Guest house doubles as a concert hall. The living room boasts comfortable seating for 80 guests…an artful wine bar built into the stairs…and stunning views in a Los Angeles canyon. A stunner by Walker Workshop Design Build…
Walk on By…
…we often walk by fabulous spaces and take them for granted…
