VT (for all of my design-obsessed peeps)

imagesourcenotesondesigntumblr Wishing a wonderful Friday to all blog readers and friends.  

imagesourceunknown Question:  What should I do with an exposed brick wall?  Answer:  Paint it!

imagesourcenotesondesigntumblr As of late, numerous examples of wall-sized digitized photo-murals have been popping up, and frankly I adore the look.  Classicist, mannerist, or nostalgic, whatever the style or origin, it all contributes to drop-dead drama, a situation much needed in this time of greys, neutrals and an otherwise timid color palette (which after much too many successive seasons now resembles diluted bath-water).

imagesourcenotesondesigntumblr Kudos to the designer (or homeowner) who has assembled this tantalizing tableaux.
