I just made a post in my journal about illustrated children's books that I read as a kid and still love. ♥ Took a while to scan everything (well, of course it's not every book I read as a kid), and then LJ was being messy, so it's has been laying in my computer for a while now.
Hope you will enjoy as much I enjoyed doing it! :)

I'm a total interior design nerd (as shown here in my post from the Interior Design themed month last year). Here are 25 pictures I had in my inspiration folder of bedrooms to share with you.

So,
I have been lurking for quite some time. I focus on collage work and just simple aesthetics. I love everything I see in this community, so this is a megapost of mine. . .music, quotes, and photos of some old collages. Under the cut.

Hi! I've never had time to actually participate in a theme but now I do! I am obsessed with home decor lately now that I've moved in with my boyfriend and trying to find the perfect balance between kinda trashy to kinda minimal to not so feminine now that I live with a boy.. blah, blah blah, ok:

You may have seen this on PBS. Thought I'd share it here, because the animation is really beautiful! If you have time to kill, watch it.

As a regular reader of this web site, It was only now that I register myself. The reason is pretty simple: I finally purchase a decent camera to start uploading pics and because, my brother did an amazing finding that I would like to share with you guys.

Context:

On a business trip to Angola, he took a small tourist ride to the interior of this country. And on the waterfalls of "Duque de Bragança" a strange building caught his attention on the other side of hill.

After some time he went there again to check it out.

He took some pictures and when he returned to Portugal and showed to the rest of my family, some members recognized that building and provided some pictures taken in the 1970's.
After the independence of Angola in '74, in was completely abandoned.

Anyway, the land where this building stands was purchased by a company who plans to demolish it. The thing is that, it is one of the finest examples of modern Portuguese architecture in Angola and it should be restored. It would reveal some maturity to one of the fastest growing economies in the world.  

Hope you enjoy.
Diogo

I've been a lurker for a while, but never posted 'til now. I recently went out of town on vacation and visited the desert, and managed to take some decent pictures of flora and scenery on my phone. So...

Beauty in a harsh environment... )

Enjoy!
