at home :: random details

November 17, 2012 filed under: at home, fotografia de interiores, personal, portfolio

hello there and happy weekend! this is just a quick post to show some details of our new house. after moving in the end of september the truth is we’ve been merely combining things around and haven’t yet shopped for anything new, though we are much in need, like lamps, curtains and rugs (oh please, give me rugs!). but today i felt like taking a few pictures around some details to share with you.

one thing i’ve been noticing a lot, and actually still trying to figure that out, is the light in this house. i love the new house, it’s way bigger than our first one, but the light here is tricky. we don’t have as much light as we did, and for me that is kind of a bummer. but of course, the fact that we have a walk-in closet, an office for me, and a backyard makes it less important. the thing is when taking and editing the photos, i realized that it took me a while to get the editing done, feeling it right, because it’s such a different place. and the light available, either coming from windows or furniture itself is really important. oh ok, rambles of a photographer, nevermind, let’s see the place!

and these are my brand new flats and the floor we have on this place… love it so much! though i keep dreaming about painting in another colour, not white, but another colour. but those are just dreams, my landlord wouldn’t approve of course!

above, my inherited rotary black phone! love it and will also paint it in another colour! a spring project maybe! below is our hallway, in decent size now! it’s one of the two rooms in the house, which doens’t get any natural light. we have that lamp lit all day long to create a cozy mood when we pass through there. and the giant leaf from a plant on our backyard! just a little greenery here too! oh as you can see christmas is already showing in some details!

and these are from my office! plants, books, lenses and photos. the usual! there is still such a long way on this room, as well as in any other room to be honest! and yes, that is me and one of my best friends on top of an elephant in india! such a happy day for us! and this is it! will come back with more in a few weeks, i hope! and now let’s have fun on the weekend, shall we?
