After photographer Beatrice da Costa sent us her virtual flowers in an email, we went poking around her website. There we found a trove of images of interiors, each, though uncaptioned and mysterious, holding some cool and inspiring idea, like the extraordinary choice of wall colors, above.

We are smitten with this corrugated tin ceiling…

We were reminded of the usefulness of ledges (easy to build out of sheetrock)…

and wished we knew the story behind this orange room, or is it artwork?
