In search of Lost Time

"Συνειδητοποίησε ότι η ταχύτητα υποδουλώνει. Όλα τα πολύτιμα πράγματα της ζωής απαιτούν χρόνο. Ο έρωτας, η φιλία, ο στοχασμός, το διάβασμα, η περιέργεια, το καλό φαγητό...

Όσο πιο πολύ βιάζεται κανείς, τόσο πιο πολύ το πνεύμα εκφυλίζεται, η καρδιά σφίγγεται, η ψυχή στενεύει. Δεν μας μένει πια καιρός ν' αγαπάμε, κανείς δεν έχει πια καιρό να μας αγαπήσει.

Αιχμάλωτοι του ρολογιού και μόνοι, τρέχουμε ρυθμικά και ασταμάτητα προς το μηδέν..."

The man in this portrait which I bought in a flea market is not my grandfather but he certainly looks like him.

El Orfanato

I find the photography of this multi-award winner film very inspiring; the sets, the colors, the use of light and shadows contribute to the haunted atmosphere of the 19th century's house and create a familiar and at the same time threatening feeling.

In the closet

The space provided, you will need an eye-catching carpet, a beautiful painting, antique mirrors, a crystal chandelier maybe, a stool or an old chair found in a flea market...

The column of knowledge

Ptolemeo bookcase started a new era for book storage.

But there is a cheap & chic alternative to the piece of furniture:

put your books on top of each other and they'll look just the same.

If you still don't have enough of books, here is a "bookcase" wallpaper in Abigail Ahern's amazing home (photo via Design*Sponge)
