Everyday beauty

Sunday, September 30th, 2007

Been trying to get out and about to take photos, but there hasn’t been much time recently.
So here are some everyday observations:
The beautiful pagoda at Kew gardens, taken from the flat window where I wash up – and where I swear some of the best sunsets in London are to be observed:

A dandelion clock, waiting a blow

A slice of the wallpaper from our new “old” house – prior to it’s demolition – this will form a small but significant part of the hopefully more salubrious “new” decor.

Perhaps the very print we’ll use?

See – there is beauty every where you look.

We begin tomorrow…

With the building company we’ve commission acting as our “independent” project manager during the process and supposedly making 2-3 visits per week, we are hoping this will be as smooth as can be expected.
It’s difficult to know what to expect – and also because it’s a “one-off”, we are also pressurised to succeed.
We’ve done as much preparation as we can – detailed drawings, schedules and designs should mean everything is ready to go. We’ll be detailing the day-by-day progress over at grosvenorgardens.com.
