Real Estate

Pouring over the latest real estate sales.......here is one that caught my eye in upmarket innercity Paddington, Sydney.................at first looks can be deceiving.........

It is nestled beneath a canopy of plane trees at the end of a cul-de-sac - a great example of urban style and sophistication.

Designed by award-winning architect Ian Moore.

..................a stunning view without having a view !!!!

Fabulous location !!!

Nice, Nice very Nice

Down on the farm.....

We had a lovely weekend with a group of friends on a Cow Farm !!!

It was a long 2.5 hour drive to get there.......viewing the scenery along - the way the colours of the landscape struck me as predominantly being......russet greens, subtle greys and grey browns with warm oranges.....






With a bit of texture and simple timber furniture, some organic shapes - this earthy colour scheme wouldn't be difficult to turn into a Modern Australian decor theme.....................perhaps accents with some Australian wildflowers for a bit of impact colour.........what do you think ?




A great time was had by all !!
