Montreux, Switzerland! External detail from one of my favourite restaurants in Switzerland: Le Palais Oriental ( www.palaisoriental.ch/ ). Very Alhambresque! You may note the variation of the eight pointed star in the window and small normal ones in the wooden shutter :-)

  39. youngrobv (52 months ago | reply)

    Fascinating framing. Without the caption, I never would have guessed the location.

  40. Bibble & Co. (52 months ago | reply)

    Some of my favourite colours. In fact, I will use them to inspire me in the living room to my new house! Thanks for that, I was at a loss with the vast expanses of pale turquoise walls. My instinct is to add deep orange, but brown is much nicer and less obvious. And the deep cream is lovely, I saw a rug in that colour...sorry, to rattle on. It's a gorgeous photo.

  41. Micheo (52 months ago | reply)

    I've just uploaded some pics that I would like you to see, just to know if you have ever heard of these two beautiful buildings in Granada. It seems people link Granada only with the Alhambra and little else, and there are so many more things to see and enjoy.
    Thanks!

  42. NasB (52 months ago | reply)

    This is just beautiful!
    The detail in the woodwork is stunning, and their use of modern colour unexpectedly lovely against the traditional style.

  43. Noel Joyeux (52 months ago | reply)

    This is so perfect and neat ! I love the colors, the details in the wood...
