TRAVEL TO ITALY: FLORENCE | architecture

Next stop: The heart of Tuscany - Florence.
The view from Ponte Vecchio - Pont Santa Trinita, Florence
We spent two days there, but it wasn't enough. The city is so beautiful and the view from the hill is just breathtaking. We actually had an evening "picnic" on the hill, drinking wine and admiring the Florence's skyline. I will let the pictures tell the story, but what I will remember the most is beautiful architecture, really expensive coffee and the proposal we saw on Ponte Vecchio.

HOW TO REUSE OLD DRAWERS | home

This is not a DIY post, but still, you will have to do this by yourself. Last time I showed you, what I did with an old wooden drawer, but I have a lot of old drawers in my room. I had an old wooden desk a few years ago and when I got a new desk, the older one wasn't in any use, so I put it away, but I kept 7 wooden drawers. I thought is too bad to destroy them. One of them became a bed tray / lap desk (DIY in other post here) and the other 6 I'm using for organizing my things.

TRAVEL TO ITALY: MANTOVA, PISA, LUCCA | architecture

Palazzo Te, Mantova
After Vicenza and Verona, we had three short stops in Mantova, Pisa and Lucca. I've never heard of Mantova and Luca before that trip, but I was excited for visiting Pisa and the leaning Tower. First visit was Palazzo del Te in Mantova. Beautiful palace, work of Giulio Romano. We had a tour around the palace and then we had to find a place in the garden to sketch. The weather was really windy so it was even harder to sketch.

DIY PLADENJ ZA V POSTELJO / A BED TRAY DIY


SLO

Predstavljaj si to: Zjutraj odpreš oči in zraven tebe je pladenj s pripravljenim zajtrkom, samo zate. Vonj kave, svežih rogljičkov, pomarančnega soka, tudi jagode mogoče? Vse kar moraš storiti je to, da vzameš pladenj v svoje naročje in poješ zajtrk medtem, ko si še vedno na toplem v objemu svoje postelje. Kdo si želi takšen zajtrk? Jaz! In vse kar še potrebuješ je nekdo, ki ti bo tak zajtrk pripravil. ;) Slednjega ti ne morem obljubiti, ampak pladenj za zajtrk v postelji si pa lahko izdelaš sama.

TRAVEL TO ITALY: VICENZA AND VERONA | architecture

Torre di Piazza, Basilica Palladiana, Vicenza // Palladio's Casa Cogollo, Vicenza
I love Italy. I don't know at which point in my life I started loving old parts of the cities, but I do and there is a lot of old cities in Italy. :) There is this special energy which is indescribable and this energy just grab you and it doesn't let you go. I could walk around with 'gelato' in my hand for the whole day and I wouldn't get bored. Every building has its own story and every story has the beautifully formed facade. It is like the time stops for a moment and there is just you and the city.

During my study I've visited some different cities in Italy, mostly in the northern part and I was so impressed that I decided to share some photos from my trips with you. In this first "monday photos" post I'm sharing photos from the first two cities we've visited during our 'sketching trip' 3 years ago: Vicenza and Verona.

TWO OPEN AND CONNECTED AREAS | architecture

The Holidays are over, but I would like to go back for a while on the Christmas eve. This was the day when my project was published in a 'Delo in dom' magazine. This project is actually one of 25 different projects designed by architecture students from our university. It is some sort of competition where people send applications with their house/flat plans and a description of their wishes. The theme this year was attic apartments in a collaboration with Velux - roof windows and blinds company.
