The Giant's House




I haven't been to New Zealand, but when I do (some day), I'll want to stay at this B&B called The Giant's House. It's grounds are filled with mosaic-ed gardens and fountains. I adore this sort of sculpture.



Sorry I couldn't make the photos larger. I'd like a closer look myself. I do know those figures are all big enough for a grown up to sit in their lap and look child-sized!



Look at the fun rooms you get to stay in. What interesting dreams one may have here....




Dancers or acrobats along a fence.


Gorgeous gateway. I want to learn how to make these!


Here is the adorable artist and owner of the Giant's House. She offers art classes at the house, where there's a cafe and gallery. I'd love to visit! Very inspiring.

Art House




I love art houses. Don't you? In these days of internet- we can cruise right in to any art show, exhibit, or art environment. I love looking at, but especially IN, art houses, and imagining how it would be to really live there. Or perhaps it's best to keep it as an oasis- a special place to stay or vacation.

So what do you think of this one? It's pretty 70's but I just love it. Built by Mexican Architect, Javier Senosiain, and located near Mexico City.
It's hard to say no to an interior gardenscape. Much huger inside than I thought..... care to see more? Click here. (I almost always miss when I go to type a capitol "C" and end up typing "lick here". )
