Tiny Victorian Cottage
With only $3000 on renovation and furniture, Sandra Foster transformed a Catskills hunting cabin into this romantic 9-by-14-foot Victorian cottage. She did all the carpentry work herself, using vintage columns, flooring and wavy glass windows. via nytimes

This movie is gorgeous… I didn’t care much for all the elements of the story, but it’s beautiful to look at, and I love the forest scenes.

This “invisible” tub is so simple, yet revolutionary in its design. Made from a thick sheet of glass inserted between the two tile walls it creates a modern touch to any bathroom.
Boston-based architecture & design firm Stern McCafferty created this custom bath based on an inspiration photo from owners Amy and Ethan d’Abelmont Burnes. The couple wanted an open and modern bathroom, and this tub definitely fits in with that aesthetic.
i absolutely adore oddball interior design— this is amazing!
If I owned this tub I would take ALL the smutty pictures and videos. ALLLLLLLL of them.
NOPE
I can just see me tripping over the ledge of this thing and falling/cracking my head open/drowning.

One of my professors used so many of these pictures in a slide show the other day. I bet she just got them from here. XD

The 2012 Tokyo Hotaru Festival took place recently, releasing 100,000 blue LED lights to float in the Sumida River. The bulbs rolled along the waves of the river bank, mimicking hotaru (the Japanese word for “fireflies”), for the festival that celebrates the Japanese tradition of watching fireflies float along a watercourse. The spectacular event lit up the waterway with a sparkling sapphire radiance against the night sky.
The solar-powered LED balls, known as prayer stars, were designed to illuminate when they came in contact with water and were provided by Panasonic, one of the event’s sponsors. At the close of the festival, the bulbs were gathered by giants nets and removed from the stream.
Visit My Modern Metropolis to view more photos of this awesome spectacle.
