out in the open

I love going into homes where personal artifacts and accessories are openly displayed, especially when in a lovely manner. It evokes a confidence that I find incredibly appealing--that sense that one is not afraid to display their favorite books or their kitchen staples to guests. Oh, how I would love to meet the homeowners of this apartment and climb the ladder to leaf through those books...

...or examine the selection of herbs and spices that they display.

By the way, pretty fabulous kitchen, no? So smart of the homeowners to encase it in glass and make what is a very small home much more open.

Oh to be that organized!

Did they turn all their books around? They look suspiciously white.

The paned glass wall is the bomb, isn't it?! The library and herb display is pretty wonderful too. Thanks.

I love how all the books on the bookshelf are neutral! They are probably just turned around but they look great!

The first picture gives me an inspiration and a clear image on how I want to arrange my books in my room. I hope I can do it in the near future!
