I Wnat To Buy a Cement Factory

  If I knew where I could find an old cement factory I would happily live in it if I could do this to it.

This amazing place is in Spain and was designed by Ricardo Bofill and is now his home. I am envious beyond belief. Found at House and Garden

Wonderful Studios

Here's another wonderful workspace. The reason I am into this at the moment is because I have a new workspace in progress and should be moving in next year. It will also be a showroom for Ghost Furniture. It is in the most wonderful setting and I should be able to tell you more very soon.
If it's anything like this I will have nothing to complain about. Imagine walking into that entrance on the left into that gorgeous workshop, with your showroom on the right, every morning, wouldn't that be wonderful? Diane Delclerq & Evelyne Declerq do this.
Their site has little information so I just have to guess that they design and make knitwear. I love the showroom/shop and the use of old paint palettes to display their goods. The added bonus is that it is in Rome. How wonderful is that?

Wonderful Studios

I have noticed recently that designers are featuring their studios as well as their products and shops. Isabelle de Borchgrave who I discovered yesterday via So Sylvie is a Brussels based designer with this wonderful studio.
You must visit this website and see the video which shows even more. One thing I loved was the door knocker on the entrance to the studio which is a paint brush.
The dresses pictured are made from paper, can you believe and the beautiful pumpkins and leaves are created by Isabelle for printing fabrics.

Putting It Together - Study/Workroom

I apologise in advance to all the men out there. This Study/Workroom is for women only.
Come on girls admit it, isn't it lovely when you have a room to retreat to where you can get creative or just simply sit and read. Your Space.
I have put together a look that is functional yet beautiful. I hope you agree.
