Having stayed almost 2 months in our 'new' home, here are some photos showing some progress...
View from the kitchen window of the back garden which is an enclosed garden. Only water and marsh plants are kept here...
View of the more 'complete' kitchen with a work top.
Another view of the kitchen. My friend Gaid commented that the kitchen reminded her of a typical kitchen that she might come across in the South of France. Maybe it's the overall terracotta tone of the tiles, or the stone floor and work top...on the wall is a poster of a French herbal candy brand from the belle epoque of France (still selling strong now) - Cachou LaJaunie.
The bed cover is a patchwork designed by myself but sewn by my mother many years ago. On the wall is an old painting from my own collection...
A bonbonier sits on top a coffee table book from Vuitton. (Bonbonier in French means candy box)
A low side table in elm wood from China sits prettily under a painting from my own collection in the reading corner.
Butterflies...exotic memories from my childhood encased in frames from the Butterfly Park in Kuala Lumpur.
The entrance to the house...
The living...with more paintings from my own collection.
The reading corner.
Part of the space in between the dining and work room where a skylight was added to brighten up the area. On the left is a painting from my early days and the poster was bought outside the Sagradia Familia in Barcelona.
Part of the back garden...
Another view of the back garden, which is L-shaped.
