The beauty of wood and concrete

I was star strucked on the long L-shaped sofa with concrete base. Very clever and chic. Simply adorable. I was regretting on why i havent thought about this. This is really amazing. The throws and the upholstery blances the toughness of the concrete sofa. I want to lay down on it with a few books to read. Very nique and inviting.
The fireplace takes it centerstage on this area. The continuous concrete to the fireplace is simply stunning. It binds the look together. I wonder if the heat from that fireplace will go all the way to the sofa during cold months. My curiosity is taking over me. I want to experience it. I cannot ignore that rustic wooden tray on that transition from living area to the kitchen. I want to have one because its beautiful.
Nothing ever beats an all white kitchen. It exudes comfort, clean and divine. The dark wood table even out the all white color of the space, giving it a shabby chic look. That native bag is so cute in there. I even wonder whats in there.
I cannot ignore the rustic shelve with those displays. It was organized, yet fully dressed up but not cluttered. I think those dining lamps are DIY's. Got a little curious how it looks when its lighted. I really adore the dining area. Its very chic, very shabby.
Think this one is a kids bedroom. Love how spacious it was. Unfortunately, most of us cannot afford to have a space that is so spacious as this. I love the sofa bed, and they have this small living area where they can write, read or study. And of course, they can also play in their little but colorful tent! This wide space was even made wider because of the white color. Look how the color plays an important role in making the space interesting and yet calming.
This is I think a girls bedroom. I love how that subtle pink mixes with gray. That cart with magazines on it is a clever solution to de clutter such stuff. The net that serves as a gallery for artworks breaks the power of the gray wall and a great display of home made artworks. The room maximizes the nice view from the outside thus opening up the wall with a sliding mirror door that let the sunlight in. A simple curtain blocks the excessive sunlight from entering. 
Have you ever wonder why theres no wall between the bedroom and the bathroom? Well, they probably like so much intimacy. But its space saving and i really love it. Love the concrete headboard and the concerete base of the bed. Oh that concrete again, but it wonderful
What a stunning view of the bathroom. Im wishing i have this one. I love it. Jaw dropping, eye cathing and fun isnt it?
You can never go wrong with concrete. The toughness and the rusticity brings the natural element on it that makes it even more special. I love to have this kind of bathroom. And that slim tray that goes on both sides of the tub, that alone completed the look.
And of course, they never forget to transcend the look on the outside. It seems as if you would never leave the area because this is so inviting and fresh. The trellis and the plant that climbs on it made the area fresh and airy. Plus it shields the area from the sun. How i love to have my breakfast in there.

The owner of the house deserve a round of applause. I was even standing as i do it. The place is heavenly, what everyone is dreaming of.

Make Me Home No.4

Welcome to Make me Home edition 4. Weve been doing the dining, living and kitchen already and i guess its proper to feature a bedroom as well. This time, i want to feature a bedroom which is so typical to a filipino setting where the bedroom is shared by siblings. It is a common fact that due to limited space and budget, room sharing is an option to a modest family. Though privacy may be a little bit of a problem when sharing a space, intimacy and healthy relationships can be strengthen by sharing a room with someone who are dear to us. This room may be bit of a challenge for me. When i saw the room, i thought, a bed with a pull out will definitely solve the small space problem. But, its kinda ackward for someone to sleep on the pull out right? In fact, sleeping in a pull out is just an option for a sleep overs. It will be greater and even righteous to give a bed to everyone so they can have a space of their own. So i envisioned a "chic retreat style" for this bedroo

The L shaped Sofa

An L shape sofa is a sofa that is literally designed in the shape of an L. It is designed like this for a number of reasons, and is a great choice for many different kinds of living rooms. Many people are buying L shaped sofas these days, in fact, for all of the benefits they offer. So, in case you have not been able to witness these benefits firsthand, here they are! First and foremost, an L shape sofa gives you more actual sitting room than does a regular sofa. Why? Well, because there is simply more of it to sit on! There is the main section (much like a normal couch), then, there is the elbow (a very relaxing spot to sit, I might add..), and the rest of the L on the end...which is usually the size of at least a small loveseat. And since there is so much room on these pieces to sit, you can fit a lot more people onto an L shaped sofa like this than you could on a regular sofa. The next benefit that an L shape sofa gives us is the benefit of being more affordable. Now, at this, you

La Residencia Almar...my home in Dumaguete

This is La Residencia Almar in Dumaguete City where i stayed for six nights. Actually, this is my second time to stay in this hotel because i was here last year. I opted to stay again in this hotel because i love the view in its front and it is smaller than the usual hotel located in Dumaguete. In front of the hotel is the famous Dumaguete Boulevard where a lot of people, local and tourist gather every morning and at night to see the majestic view of the sea. But what makes me desire to stay once again is tits beautiful interior, a Balinese theme which i always love in every home. The nice lighting fixture greeted me as I enter the hotel. This is spectacular especially at night. I love the simple but colorful detail at the base of the chandelier. The nuetral paint, with mostly beige, white and brown accentuated by several niches where an old jars are kept in display, trimmings and wooden pieces makes me think that I am in an old world retreat but never forgetting the asian herit
