House In The Canopy Of Trees by Bernardes Jacobsen
This house is located in the beautiful area near Sao Paulo, Brazil. Designed to be a pavilion supported only by five columns, the home has bedrooms, a living room, dining room and balconies facing a pool overlooking the beautiful beach of Guaruja. The house become a great holiday house for a family with two kids who likes to have a guests. Even though the site is really beatiful it wasn’t easiest place for construction. A structural 18m deck above the ground was used as an artificial foundation. Above this deck the whole building is made of metal. The house only has two floors and is accessible from the second one because it’s attached to the street. The first volume features housekeeper’s house, kitchen, service-area, steam bath, gym and four bedrooms. This house is one of those houses that makes architects to be proud of their work.

Where Did You Get That? Clam Shell Vase
We saw this item at one of our favorite designers's web site, Gary Hutton. We love the simplicity of it. It looks great by itself, but it'll look really pretty with an orchid plant and some moss too.

A Little Nesting
Fortunately before his arrival we had a few warm days which I tried to take full advantage of by bringing in a few signs of spring.
In my flower bed are two old cement urns that once belonged to my in-laws. I love to change these urns with the seasons. Recently I found two unusual wreaths at the thrift store for a dollar each. I placed them a top each urn and, luckily enough, pots from the nursery fit snug inside the center.
I like the way they resemble birds nests.
I planted pansies nestled amongst spanish moss.
And to finish out the display and give it height, I added
beautiful red branches a dear neighbor clipped for me.Nests, pansies and branches---the perfect spring combination!
