Design: Paris Hotels

I recently learned that I’ll be off to Paris for about a week in February. I can barely believe it. While I have been to Paris many times I am always eager to return. To say I’m excited about this trip – yes, even though it’s in the winter – is an understatement! I’m just thrilled!

I’ve been having some fun researching hotels all over Paris. There are some amazingly beautiful spaces out in Paris that I’m just drooling over. And now you can too…

Aren’t 4 and 5 star hotels the best? I love the mix of modern and traditional decor of these Parisien hotels. And mostly I love the windows because I know many of these suites offer beautiful views of the city.

It’s no secret that Paris is one of my all-time favourite destinations. I have been lucky enough to have visited a dozen times or so and there’s always something interesting and to discover. Inspiration is endless! So when my friend Andres sent me a link to the BLC Design Hotel, first I drooled over all of its whiteness, then I decided that I just had to post it! I want to go!

White Out: Summer Sightings

For the third installment in our White Out series (first, second), I’m sharing two photos that Susan sent me from her summer travels to Paris and the UK. First up is the very white window display spotted at a Kenzo shop in Paris.

And the second photo definitely put a smile on my face. I need to find my way to this place one day (or at least make a similar sign for my own home!).

Thanks for sending these photos my way Susan. I’m happy (and proud) that you spotted some white during your travels.

See something fabulously white? Take a photo and submit it to me at whitecabana [at] gmail [dot] com.
