"Project Chambre à Coucher"

As a someone who is studying how to make beautiful, functional and unique spaces...I am quite ashamed at the current state of my room.

*it's usually not that messy. The random shoe and tape
measure are my markers in attempting
to reconfigure the space.

It's stock standard, currently lacks character (bar from the spot behind the door where my bookcase/ knick knack display is) and is in need of a good paint job.


Thus, “Project Chambre à Coucher” is born. I know it won't get started today. Or next week. Or even the next. There's just no time for it right now, university assignments have seen to that, but this summer this is where I'll be. Painting and re-arranging and personalizing.

Update!

Fixed my room today.. kind of. It's more of a simple re-orientation...and a clean up. There's still a lot of work to be done. But maybe I can see this as step one of project “chambre à coucher”. perhaps. Let's hope so.

Red Dawns

Things to do:

There's a great sense of accomplishment today as I ticked of a few things on my 'To Do' list...a relatively rare feat. It must have been the red dawn. Health concerns and agricultural impact aside, I thought today was absolutely beautiful. It felt like walking through a sepia photograph.
