Writer's Block: Place of Residence

[51stcenturyfox]

[Error: unknown template qotd] In the middle of our street, with two cats in the yard. Life used to be so hard.  Uhm... this is not my beautiful house. (But it would have tall windows like these to let in lots of light.)  It would be romantic but not cluttered, and very airy. I'd have loads of bookcases and a balcony for having breakfast.

 

Just kidding. :D

Aaaaand it'd be on the Amalfi Coast. (I know, the flat looks Parisian. This is a fantasy, yes?)

I also like Mel Gibson's apartment in What Women Want, which is completely different but utterly cool.  Unfortunately, I can't find any shots of it.

How about you?  Any interiors in films (or elsewhere) you covet just a bit?

Yeah, you know I love the Alps too. :D

The house looks great. And BRIGHT! And airy!

The only thing I don't like about some modern/mid-century modern interiors is that they're so stark that my keys on the counter would look like an unintentional mess. I like a little decorative clutter, I admit. :)


And some old things. Though I guess the Eames house isn't an architectural spring chicken at this point.

Eames chair? The classic? Yes, please. Laptop swing-arm thing? I'd never get up!

There are some great shots from when the house was first built, showing it in a comfortable state of clutter. Because yeah, working designers, house as studio, etc. Ray Eames was a goddess.

I have to admit, of course, that the mind also strays to the kinky possibilities those windows and their multi-tasking louvres would afford. (But then, when does it not? Stray, that is.)

She was!

Oh, you're naughty. I bet you loved Owen's flat. With the UP 'GAINST THE WINDA' sexins.

:D
