Infinite diversities

"Our days are a kaleidoscope. Every instant a change takes place in the contents. New harmonies, new contrasts, new combinations of every sort. Nothing ever happens twice alike. The most familiar people stand each moment in some new relation to each other, to their work, to surrounding objects. The most tranquil house, with the most serene inhabitants, living upon the utmost regularity of system, is yet exemplifying infinite diversities"... Henry Ward Beecher (1813- 1887)

Amazing kaleidoscope lockets from Verabel + Fox.

Tiny homes!

Each cost an average of $200 to make! The roofs are transparent so you can gaze at the treetops. Windows are made from old washing machines!

Says Mr. Diedricksen... “I built it thinking it might be a place for people to stay who were drunk or annoying, so I didn’t want them staying in the Vermont cabin with me. I had envisioned all these microstructures as places to sleep for the people who say, ‘Oh, I forgot my sleeping bag.’ Almost like the Ewok village, all these little micro-shelters dotting my land"...

I'm drunk and annoying! Where's my tiny house??!

Are you in love? What are you reading?

"The questions I would have liked to ask people were: ‘Are you in love? What are you reading?"... Francoise Sagan, "A Certain Smile"

Haunted

"One need not be a chamber to be haunted;
One need not be a house;
The brain has corridors surpassing
Material place."

Emily Dickinson
