in lieu of windows

It all comes back to "Now Discover Your Strengths".

Aside from sharing a two-person desk in an office without a window, we also recently discovered after taking the quiz that accompanies the book "Now Discover Your Strengths" that we share 3 of our top 5 strengths. One of those strengths is "Input".

"You are inquisitive. You collect things. You might collect information - words, facts, books, and quotations - or you might collect objects... Whatever you collect, you collect it because it interests you. and yours in the kind of mind that finds so many things interesting. The world is exciting precised because of this infinite variety and complexity... Why are they worth storing? At the time of storing it is often hard to say exactly when or why you might need them, but who knows when they might become useful?"
Now Discover Your Strengths, p. 105


So, in lieu of windows we hope to collect images that will introduce light and beauty into our daily routine. We hope that the assortment of pictures and thoughts for design will prove to be a source of inspired living for you both in terms of the images' ability to generate ideas for your own home and in terms of exploring the complex ways that beauty is defined, fashioned and observed in our world. Or perhaps the point of this blog is much simpler - let us provide you with a bit of eye candy as you enjoy your morning cup of coffee. Either way, thanks for joining us.
