Mpreis






Located in the heart of Europe Mpreis is by far my favourite grocery store. Each store is individually designed by different architects to reflect the picturesque landscape that they are built in.

Brasilia Architecture






"Brasilia was built to be Brazil's new capital city. The idea was to transfer the federal capital of Brazil from the coast to the midwestern interior of the country. Brazil had two capital cities before that: Rio de Janeiro and Salvador da Bahia. By transferring the capital city to the interior, the government intended to help populate that area of the country. People from all over the country were hired to build the city, especially those from the Northeast region of Brazil. Brasilia is known, internationally, for having applied the principles established in the Athens Charter of 1933." - Wikipedia. I have to go there one day!

Dream House





This is it. No doubt about it. I will build a replica of this house one day. I am insanely in love with this house and its layout. It is FANTASTIC!! It was featured in the October issue of Dwell. I have read the article 4 times already...and go number 5! Finley/Wamble House.
