White-washed tranquility...

Some exotic flair from interior architect Samiya Al-Harthy Sheridan,
in the far away (from me) country of Oman.
Cool and white-washed tranquility...

the bedroom rugs are Bedouin shamlas, woven of camel hair.



The narrow, pointed-arch windows are typical of Omani architecture and are said
to help cool the space.

Past the white sands is the Gulf of Oman...
