Such a beauty! There is nothing like spending a hot afternoon on a relaxing deck like this, reading a book and enjoying a fresh cool drink. I am a city girl but always get attracted to rural living because of its simplicity and connection with nature. May be it is because I spent my summer vacations and -'Diwali' holidays in our family home which is in a tiny village in India. The picture of the above deck reminds me of those carefree, peaceful and happy days. We used to have a full house during these vacations with all my family, cousins, aunts and uncles... and lots of care, pampering and love with good food and countless activities.
The above picture is from Elle Decor Magazine. It is the deck of the main house of Charlene de Ganay’s home in South America. The dark color of the deck connects to the color of the roof via the poles. The glass doors, frames and pillows on the bed accents the darker background. The lighter colors of the wall prevents it from becoming monotonous. The overall feel is of course relaxing and comforting with the green coconuts lending a soothing touch
