Hello again

I am breaking my vow of having nothing more to do with highly-annoying blogger software to post this: a new photo shoot of one my favorite apartments, previously featured here. I'm always a sucker for a fresh view of an old favorite; it's great to see new corners — and how things change over time. And I sometimes wonder if there needs to be any other reason to live in Paris than to have those gorgeous herringbone floors...

The wood grain on that lamp is also pretty fabulous. (I might have strategically cropped a zebra rug out of this picture.)
