House tour...

Off to Morocco(not really, but pretend with me)...To a house full of texture

Begging you to sit....no, lounge

as you feel the soft breeze

that gently moves the linen curtains...

Join me.

Have your shoulders relaxed...just a bit?

Thought so.

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...
