Frank Lloyd Wright – Architecture Admired

One thing I do while travelling within the US, is see if I could detect which architect designed a building, a  house, or even a monumental structure of sorts. Mostly in Los Angeles, Chicago and New York,  I do lots of searching for that unique style – a structure or dwelling that stands out above the rest. In line with this topic, I found this interesting article about one of my favorite  – Frank Lloyd Wright – an illustrated guide to his work. Who’s your favorite architect?

Selfie or Not – That’s Been My Struggle

Well, more like taking any photographs of me at my best is a huge struggle. One, because I feel the one taking the photograph has no patience, which stresses me out.

Decor: San Francisco On-Point Style

Recently I came across this article, about a home decor that has gone completely right – if you ask me, since the style is in line with my taste.

What I love about this, is that I know exactly the neighborhood the apartment is in, and that it is amazing how wonderfully Fran Meckler and her husband have taken something old and turned  into something new-blue. (You like how I did that?” Anyway, enjoy the views as much as I have:
