I hope all goes well this weekend and your MIL gets transferred home happily. I enjoyed her company so much when you visited Vanc'r.<br />Susan: Yes, exalted, almost sacred. . . that sense of the outside held just at bay . . .<br />TNMA: It's actually quite lovely from outside as well, as a better photographer could show -- the way the undulating roof blends into the sky is captivating. And yes, this will be my problem as well: much as I'd like to get to Metz again, I'm likely to get waylaid by Paris.<br />Mardel: It was very interesting, and I really wish we'd had time to do it justice.materfamiliashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16062766947897513369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-5506142835820321642011-09-03T17:47:25.694-07:002011-09-03T17:47:25.694-07:00In the first photo, of the ceiling I see star of d...In the first photo, of the ceiling I see star of david, and then chair caning from the interior view. What an interesting space this must be and I would love to see it someday. It looks like it bridges may spaces, as you mention, inside and outside, public and private, grand occaions and the smallness of the everyday -- I'm thinking of the chair-caning look here. I love spaces that make me look at the world differently.Mardelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04850551308931710502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-41531758681908236262011-09-03T10:39:00.940-07:002011-09-03T10:39:00.940-07:00Wow amazing building - though I think it looks bet...Wow amazing building - though I think it looks better from the inside, than the out. I'd definitely like to visit Metz sometime soon, but in springtime... I'll probably be dreaming of Paris!That's Not My Agehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16052973075052114955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-10224993809141992142011-09-02T08:50:28.866-07:002011-09-02T08:50:28.866-07:00Yes, Stars of David and woven cane seats :-).
