I loved the ever changing colors in the buildings. I also liked the Catalan flag in the picture. It was an interesting time to visit Barcelona (not too long after the people's non-binding vote for Catalonia's independence took place). There is a strong sense that many people in this area want independence to occur.

I believe this picture was taken near Mercat del Born.

The Tin House can be found in Ottawa’s ByWard Market. This popular attraction was installed in 1973, and hangs on a building wall in a courtyard that is now named after the work.
The Tin House is a reconstruction of the facade from a house that was owned by Honoré Foisy, which was located a few blocks from the ByWard Market. Foisy was a tinsmith who used sheet metal to create a facade that was made to look like other building materials, such as wood and brick.
When the house was demolished in 1961, the facade was saved, and later reconstructed by artist Art Price, using the original work, along with other re-created pieces.

La maison de fer-blanc est installée au marché By, à Ottawa. Depuis 1973, cette œuvre est accrochée à l’un des édifices de la cour qui porte maintenant son nom et dont elle est devenue l’attraction artistique.
Il s’agit de la reconstruction de la façade de la maison d’Honoré Foisy, qui se trouvait à quelques coins de rue du marché. Foisy, un ferblantier, s’était servi de feuilles de métal pour créer une façade imitant d’autres matériaux, comme le bois et la brique.
Quand, en 1961, la maison a été démolie, on a sauvé la façade qui a ensuite été reconstruite par l’artiste Art Price à partir de l’original et de pièces fabriquées.

We had been out at supper after our son's graduation. Nearing home, Kim said she wanted to stop by her work, pick up stuff so that she might not have to go in over the weekend.
While traipsing around outside her work and the car to stretch my legs, I noticed this.
Happy Window Wednesday!

Window frames in Porto. Although there is still quite a lot of dereliction, the old buildings are being refurbished and made good in sympathy with the architectural style and history of the city.
