Beautifully perched amongst the rocks that plunge down to the blue Aegean Sea
sits a beautiful simple home made of dry rock and warm cement.
It is stunning in it’s simplicity…
A HUGE earthenware oil jar claims it’s rightful spot…
on one of the islands of Cyclades.
Ahhhhh. In through the nose…out through the mouth.
She furnishes it with many of her simple, modern designs.
Hand painted rugs outside…
and in.
The palate is the soft white and grey of a summer rain cloud
tranquil…the color of calm.
Nothing affected…everything used…needed.
The flavor of simplicity.
…an aura of ...
PEACE .
Don't wake me...just step over me.

Oh, geez! Where do I start? I love the painted "carpets" on the floors, the large round silver platters on the tables, the netting over the bed, the rocks, the colors, the view.
Sigh.
But I'm a little intimidated by that oil jar!
...And I think I'll be stalking YOUR dream! :)
It's beautiful!
Wow! What a view! And I covet that bedroom, too....what inspiration from you, as always!
ok... this is definitely one of my favorites... I love just everything, I plug in dreaming, as well.
What a wonderful retreat!
simplicity and perfection! the pared down sensibility is what living by the sea is all about.
the only thing i'm not madly in love with is the painted floor designs. and i could put up with those! everything else...heaven on earth.
Simple. Elegant. I suppose you are coming up with a plan to steal the large pot?!?!
What a dreamy dream!!!
...lovely and beautiful!
I love the design painted on the cement. All the white is so relaxing and soothing too. When I was younger I always wante color but these days I really get into the textures of white around me.

Oh I am partial to rugs, and those handpainted ones outdoors are fab. So soothing. Jane T.
How very iyliic. Would love to spend some time here....
Now I have an itch to start planning a holiday somewhere beautiful. :-)
love the carpets, the view, the simplicity, the whites against the blues! gorgeous!
Beautiful. I can almost smell the fresh sea air and taste the tomato and feta salad for dinner!
The floors, the floors, the floors. I'm with Melissa: I think you could put somebodies eye out with that jar.
The stone patio is a dream, I bet you stay cool there too.
Nice to look at but too sparse for a pack rat like me!
GORGEOUS!!!!! just so amazing!
Im sooo agreeing with you-- I am loving white and tone on tone of the neautrals.
Elegant and crisp!

You find the most restful, peaceful photos! I love the bedroom and the kitchen the most. :)
I featured this place before in my blog but still every time I get to see this place again I still get the same feelings I had then all over again.
Feeling of serenity, relaxation, and tranquility. truly a feast to eyes and other senses.
Oh Deborah...don't you know it! If I could roll that big baby into the Aegean and then steer it to our place on the atlantic I would!! Be looking for me on the news!!
Okay...that does it...I'm moving! That looks so positively dreamy!
oh everything is calm
and peace,
isn't it.

how the people are showcased
in such a place.
a dinner*party
with colorful guests...
:-)
love how the bedside light
snakes around useful
but out of the way
for before~sleep reading.

at taking me
on 5 minute vacations........
I love the unclomplicated colour palette! Yes, I could spend some time there :) Views that stretch forever...YUM

:-)

Hi Deborah,
This is my first visit to your site and it won’t be my last! It looks like we share the same serene and beautiful dream. I have flown over the Greek islands and the colors were some of the most vibrant and beautiful I have seen. Cathy
Greece...what unbelievable views. It almost doesn't look real it's so beautiful. I too love the painted carpets! Pretty cool.
Ohhhh, this blogg is freedom fore me!!

You truly got the description right Linda. Wow, what a place to relax and I feel peace just by having a nice look see. I could definitely be there in my dreams too.
Blessings - Debbie
Wow, awesome photos. My oil jar is tiny compared to that HUGE one!
As always great blogging....
I live in the san juan Islands in wa state. In my own little humble beach house. There is just something so heartwarming and comfortable in imperfection. I am living in my dream location in a funky funny house.
how do you do this? Is this your job finding all these peoples amazing houses? You need to be a magazine editor. amazing.
after so long being an interior designer , i don't know any more what i really want ,,,, and today !!! bingo ! you did it ! this is exactly what I dream of !
the funny part is : it is exactly the opposite of what i do ,,, how complicated we are !
