Linda Cobbett transformed an old mill and stables into a family home. For it she was awarded Best Period Renovation 2010 by Period Living Magazine. There is a very interesting article here on the story of the restoration of this old Victorian Mill.

House in Buenos Aires

A bit late today in posting, I'm afraid. But here I am. Today I'm taking you to my home land which I miss very much. This house is on one of the many islands you can find in Tigre, in the province of Buenos Aires, not far from busy Buenos Aires, Capital City of Argentina. Laura Peirano, a photographer, designer and painter, used to live downtown but decided to drastically change her way of living and moved to her new home after restoring and decorating it mostly with flea market finds.
