Dwellers Without Decorators

Friday, March 18, 2011

I just went on a great getaway weekend with my husband to the Gansevoort in Turks And Caicos and I was beyond inspired by the concrete, glass, wood and flowers - I had a fantasy that I could turn the Gansevoort into my home - Hey a girl can dream! How chic is this?

Perfect grey wood with the perfect flowers!

Divine Patio Furniture - Have no idea who designs it!

The canvas covered walkway is so graphic and cool! Plus dig the turquoise shutters

The wood hides ugly fixtures and warms up the concrete

These umbrellas never blow over !

This is the vision for the dream home . Each bedroom would have it's own porch, bathroom and overlook the view. and the lobby is Massive and opens to the pool.

The View from the Lobby

The Pool

This was the groovy restaurant down the beach called Somewhere. It felt like you were hanging out in a tree house overlooking the ocean!

WHAT DOES YOUR DREAM HOME LOOK LIKE PLEASE SHARE LINKS - WOULD LOVE TO SEE!

Want to Virtually go there

How cool is this bathtub? You can't put a price on good vibes.. Baldi, an Italian company known for manufacturing luxurious home furnishings, made this bathtub. It was carved out of an enormous block of quartz found in Brazil. The tub will set you back over million dollars if you want to own your own: Via Neatorama
