My sister's living room

December 2019

Berlin, Leipziger Str.

I moved overseas a couple of times with work - sometimes you strike lucky, and sometimes you strike very lucky.

 

We managed to bag the rental of this just-refurbished 100 year old apartment in the Champel district of Geneva which came with original parquet floors, French-style doors, and what I seem to remember as a 12 foot curtain drop. The lift too was in the old open French style. We were lucky because plenty of Swiss were hankering after it, but the owner clearly decided the company I worked for had deeper pockets and would be a better credit risk.

 

This was taken in 2005 - not too long before we would up sticks again and move to the US Deep South. So out went the smart suits and ties, and in came the short sleeves and khaki slacks - much more my style.

 

Inevitably you adapt your lifestyle to a new environment and I did miss a lot of things about Switzerland, yet oddly the most enduring one was my daily commute on the number 3 trolley bus.

 

All credit to Mrs H for dressing the room.

Sorry, no trains in this one.

On an early autumn evening.

Most santas are Made In Japan, a few are unmarked and one is marked China......which one is marked China

Or 'pynt' as we call it in Norwegian. This artwork in my stue is very small, 10x10cm, so completely overlooked all the time :-). Probably made in Trondheim Norway

 

I hope you had a wonderful Christmas!

 

My annual Christmas build is this decorated livingroom with Christmas trees and fire place.

 

It's also the continuation of my #brickrooms series that I began earlier this year. All techniques get displayed and explained on StoneWars.

(Text in German, but lots of pictures)

my living room is not longer set up like this as the merimekko print was despised by my boyfriend... but at least i'll always remember!

Same old room (really need to redo that fireplace section someday) but now with a few extra pictures on the wall - an assortment of travel posters covering some of my 1:1 jaunts.

  

"El Centenario" Museo de Historia de San Pedro, en donde se presenta una muestra de la "Casa San Petrina" al estilo de las antiguas casas de San Pedro, Nuevo León, (finales s XIX) en donde dominan los volúmenes rectangulares y las líneas rectas con los materiales propios de la región: varas, carrillo, barro, palma, adobe, sillar, cantera, piedra y troncos de madera.

La sala tenía rinconeras, sillas y sillones, en ella se recibía a las visitas y se realizaban labores domésticas.
