Beautiful conversations, people, places, design+photography
I had a little time before a job interview today so I
stopped by the Macrina Bakery in SODO.
The door has an awesome oversize handle made
of driftwood and that wasn’t all. Inside they have
the coolest light fixture and the bathroom wall
is completely covered with pine wood. See the
posts following this one.
Not only does the Macrina Bakery have the coolest door handle
and wall covering it also has a beautiful one-of-a-kind
handmade light fixture. Love this bakery.

This is the coolest bathroom wall ever. Completely covered
with pine wood laid on end at varying lengths so that it appears
as though it’s jutting out of the wall. Awesome 3D application.
Beautiful, creative use of left pieces of wood. If you are in Seattle
check it out at the Macrina Bakery in SODO on First Avenue.
Tiffany Co. concept store. The wood siding and glass doors
are warm, beautiful, and not as fussy as the old brand.
I like it even if I can’t afford the goods.

During my rainy day visit to the Henry Art Gallery
I took the time to admire some stunning
photography. My favorite is by Irving Penn.
The model personifies style.
Irving Penn’s Woman with Roses

Luscious rhubarb (looks like it anyway) spied at the
Cascade Neighborhood P-Patch.
Outside Amazon headquarters is this wonderful
modern sculpture. Love the circular pattern
reminiscent of stacked logs.

Love the translucent quality of this poppy.
I think I might need one of these…very cool.
One of the best views of Seattle is from Kerry Park atop Queen Anne Hill.
Doesn’t get much better than this unless of course Mt. Rainier is out.
On this day alas it was not. One of my favorite things to do to unwind
is climb the the stairs of different neighborhoods. Wonderful surprises
and discoveries arise from anywhere which is half the fun.

Whilst jogging around Greenlake I was contemplating about
how the heck I was going to redirect my life goals. I stumbled
upon this telescope & noticed the words POINT OF VIEW.
The juxtaposition of the scope and dock in the background
was perfect. Sometimes you just need to dive into life and hope for the best.
