I was so excited earlier today by a visit from Becky of the funny and insightful The Bubb Report. Becky also writes for Design Republic's terrific blog Hatch, and today she created a lovely post about Postcards from Colorado! Becky has great taste, is funny, and intelligent, so I am honored. Thank you, Becky. And, if your visiting from Hatch, thank you for stopping by!
The reason Becky came over is that I commented on her recent Hatch post about the home of Douglas Coupland. I really fell in love with this home, so, with many thanks to Becky, here it is....
Coupland restored this house in an effort to preserve a type of architecture disappearing from his Vancouver neighborhood. How I love to hear that! One installation, by the wall of windows, is dice, and another is spools of thread. You see him in one photo below applying white Legos to a post in his gallery space. So cool.
Definitely read more about it at Hatch and in the The New York Times.
