StyleCure Inspiration, a set on Flickr.

This assignment was all about going out and snapping pics of what appeals to you. Instead, since I am behind schedule, I went back into my photo library and pulled out some relatively recent pictures of places I have liked. Two interesting themes arose:

  1. I find cafes featuring outdoor furnishings that could easily be on a patio very appealing. Natural colours and materials such as wood and metal were preferred. One outlier was a blue cafe-front with orange awnings.
  2. In terms of natural spaces, that blue and orange image would fit right in! Inspirations from nature included big blue skies, sun sparkling on the water, dappled sunlight in other areas, meadows with swaths of perennials and rusted metal edging.

I wonder if I should try to combine these two or just stick with one or the other…
