Architecture is meant to fulfill both practical and expressive requirements, and thus it serves both utilitarian and aesthetic purposes. When you look at a structure, you can distinguish these two ends but they cannot be separated, and the relative weight each of them carry can vary widely. Plus, every society has its own, unique relationship to the natural world and its architecture usually reflects that as well, allowing people from other places to learn about their environment, as well as history, ceremonies, artistic sensibility, and many aspects of daily life.

Looking at these installations, I imagine they are like clues indicating a secret trail somewhere otherworldly. Like something out of a children’s book, Hansel and Gretel have left a trail, but instead of white pebbles, this time they’ve left retro lamps. Alas it’s not Hansel and Gretel with a new flair for vintage objects, this…

There are places out there in the world which human beings abandoned long ago, leaving nature to reclaim them in their entirety. They often make for a sight that is both frightening and fascinating. They allow us to glimpse a landscape of the future — when humanity has left or ceased to be. The Instagram user itsabandoned offers many such images that help us to think about the future of our world.

Nine years ago, Elizabeth Moyer from Pretty Pink Tulips decided to plant pink tulip bulbs along the front and side of her house. This became a tradition, her outdoor “signature,” and the inspiration for the name of her fabulous blog. She now plants over 1,000 tulip bulbs each year year. A fellow native Texan, Elizabeth lives in […]

Anyone that has "moved" can tell you that there will be certain items, that no matter how much you loved them in your old home, that just don't work well in the new abode. The architecture, furniture, setting...whatever...the personality of the new house just doesn't mesh with all your old decor. Our previous home lent itself to being more formal in the Living Room. I had a lot more space in that house and a lot more furniture. I could move things around, try them out in various places. But now in the new smaller house, I'm limited in the amount of superfluous "stuff" that I can have taking up precious decor space. Looking back on this, all I see is too much stuff... I have a few old pieces of statuary, and a few antique and vintage busts that I've found over the years. I love to decorate with these pieces, but my vintage, slightly quirky "Diana" bust just didn't work in the new space. I've had to be a little practical in my approach to decor here. I only have the main Living Room upstairs, and it has to do double duty; a place that we use on a daily basis, and also a place where we can have people over...it needs to be stylish and practical, and not too strange. Here are a few Pinterest photos to give you an idea of how a piece can be used in a more modern eclectic setting. Here's an example of "Diana" truly gone off the deep end of "eclectic". But you know, somehow it works, especially if you're into modern eclectic and slightly... what's the word?...colorful? hmmmm....I don't think I'd like to be greeted with this every day... Classical statuary does seem more at home in a more formal setting, but I like how it's being used in a modern vignette, below. Here's are two examples being used for jewelry, which I really think works... In a secluded covered garden room or porch, Here, back to a more classic space. I love the idea of using broken bits of statuary. They're such a wonderful find, you'd never want to throw them out. Love this with an industrial piece for a base. Using a small bust in a cloche; love this small vignette. Here's another little French bust that I keep in the Dining Room. She really is "busted" since her base is gone. But she's comfy in a vintage urn. She's on the Dining Room Buffet now... (last Fall) So here's Diana downstairs on one of my pieces of vintage shelving. I didn't spend much time "styling" this, there were just several pieces that didn't have a home, so they ended up sharing the same level space. I don't get much natural light coming in so I had to have some overhead lighting. Living room at the "old house". I had her for sale when a shop owner came by; I'm so glad she looked past her. I think I'll keep her... you can find links to all photos on my Pinterest Board, Statuary xoxo, Joining in here: Sundays at Home at Love of Home Share it One More Time at Shabby Fufu Amaze Me Monday at Dwellings Inspiration Monday at Refresh Restyle Tweak it Tuesday at Cozy Little House The Scoop at Stone Gable Dream Create Inspire at Lehman Lane Wow Us Wednesday at Savvy Southern Style Share Your Style at The Essence of Home Feathered Nest Friday at French Country Cottage Inspiration Gallery at Craftberry Bush

Maybe it’s because, in truth, they’re completely unnecessary but so utterly gratifying when trimmed with precision. Maybe it’s because they transport us to the fantasies of our childhood, both romantic and slightly eerie (we’ve all seen how things end for Jack Nicholson in The Shining), but whatever the reason, we can’t stop staring at topiaries, so…

One thing that I firmly believe all human beings share is our inner yearning for adventure. We might try and satisfy this calling with good movies, awesome video games, or top-tier tabletop games like Dungeons and Dragons (as a Dungeon Master of several years, I’m guilty of this). However, at the end of the day, there’s no real substitute for going out into the field with your own two feet and starting your very own adventure going into the abandoned and mysterious corners of the Earth.
