weekly glee #14 2009.

it's getting colder every day and it's time to finally get out the cozy clothes, teabags and enjoy the warmth of the own home.
this week's list is much shorter than always.

1. desertions.

#whoopi goldberg appartement in new york - i think she definitely has a great interior sense :3 i love the wooden elements all around including the huge desk in the eating area.

2. photogenius.

it's claudia schiffer week here on mari's farm. it has been quiet around her, but here she is again, in two great photosets! she's still pretty beautiful.

1. vogue paris october 2009 by alasdair mclellan: i love the october feeling in these. so cozy!
2. harper's bazaar uk november 2009 by michelangelo di battista: it's halloween time and that means watching scary movies, reading thrilling stories and looking at this witty photoset! i love the style of a 50ies comic strip :D

other good shoots:

# zhang ziyi for harper's bazaar china october 2009 - it's fact that zhang ziyi is a classic chinese beauty. these photos are showing that all the way through.
# malgosia bela by tim walker for F/W october 2009 - you simply can't go wrong with tim walker.

3. architecture & design.

# the feast sideboard by sabina hill - well, actually it's not just the sideboard i'm liking but also all the other furniture pieces shown in this post! very simple yet so beautiful because of the aboriginal art elements.
# atherton residence by turnbull griffin haesloop architects - a life in this house would be awesome! all the nature around it, the awesome views out of the house and the light coming into it is amazing!

4. diversity.

yum, juice caviar parfaits by luxirare!
i can't describe how excited i get, when luxirare posts another food post on her awesome blog!
the juicy caviar idea is just making me speechless. it must be a pleasure to bite on these and feel the juice watering your mouth.

i love this little comic by abstruse goose.

5. video time.

nick cave . to be by your side
i love this video. so calming. especially with nick's melancholic voice.

cat man! 20ies style! awfully confusing! but still, pretty great to watch and move along to. and smile over the little jokes made here.

the trailer for coco avant chanel with audrey tautou. i'd LOVE to see this movie!

may '20: seeking modernism.

super pink rhododendron buds emerging! i start off this post with some flower images to appreciate and praise the time of spring, especially the month of may, which is the most abundant spring month to me personally. all the blossoms, all the fresh greens amass during may, and my heart and mind are hardly ever able to not frolick & gush about it all! for this post i am returning to one walk i did with the sole purpose to find a special mid-century villa in königstein ( which would ultimately prove to be a failure - i did find it, but i couldn't approach it properly to have a good look at it and only ever saw a tiny bit of the garden/forest side ). the whole walk was not a letdown, though, as i did find some other mid-century & brutalism gems and thoroughly enjoyed walking through the old spa town in the taunus mountains. rhododendron shrubs yield all kinds of different blossoms in myriad colours, they are easy to breed, therefore a wide variety can be found all over the wor...

july '20: lake petersdorf discoveries and a plea against genocide.

the green wild meadows of malchow's sandfeld. in the west of malchow there is a big chunk of forest that spans towards plauer see, a widely 'uncultivated' area these days, but it hasn't always been this way. in my last post i mentioned the nazi munition factory that had been built in these woods, away from prying eyes of their enemies and where they also built an external subcamp for the concentration camp ravensbrück. exactly these woods we explored on a pretty sunny day, betraying the darkness that happened around these parts. isn't it weird that there are places in this world that were built or used by dark forces and horrible regimes and you vist them 80 years later and they are the most peaceful places you can imagine? sometimes my brain can't cope with the contrast of knowing what was in the past and what the present looks and feels like. it definitely leaves me with a strange impression often, kind of like a little sting in my heart and brain that is not ...

the america chronicles '22: austin I - city of the violet crown.

sighted on the way to austin: the texas colorado river . but beware, this is not the iconic colorado river ( 2.334 km long ) that has its source in the rocky mountains and confluences in the gulf of california, flowing through the grand canyon and other magnificent landscapes along the way, but this is texas' very own colorado river with a length of 1.387 km starting in the llano estacado plains in northwestern texas, and eventually ending up in the gulf of mexico at matagorda bay . why there are two colorado rivers in the US, i really don't know 😅 my guess is, that they were named by two people in different times, not knowing of the other's colorado river discovery. we'll meet the texas colorado river again in austin, so i will probably bestow more information on you eventually ;D a random road squirrel, also found on the way to austin. austin is about 187 miles ( 300 km ) away from baytown and is situated west from there in central texas. it sits at the foot of th...
