Door, Maison Weisenberger


I'm in the mood for some art nouveau. Perhaps this was brought on by spending most of the week looking at line after line of computer text. This door detail from a house in Nancy, France has everything I crave right now. It's painted one of the shades of blue that I always associate with France. I love the careful curves and the way they play off the vertical bars. The leafy embossed design reminds me that beyond my glowing laptop screen, spring is careening right into summer.
