What is it about doors in the UK and around Europe that makes them look so brilliant? I think it’s a combination of the architecture, the rich paint colours and the patina on the hardware.
I saw this door on a house in the Guardian and it reminded me of a few other favourites. I love the robin’s egg blue, the classical columns and the pediment. It’s really perfect in my book.
This one is on a building in Baltimore that I’ve always loved. It’s such a strong door, but it’s very elegant in its lines. I have always been very curious about what this building houses. 
Megan who works for a local preservation organization sent me this door which is perfect for the season. BOO! 
That is a gorgeous blue!
ReplyDeleteoohh the yellow! How happy they must be to come home to that. I would never have the courage to commit to it unfortunately.
ReplyDeleteCute ghostie door! I've never seen windows like that.
ReplyDeleteI love a bright door and would probably paint mine bright too if I could talk the hubs into getting rid of our screen door. It has its advantages but does get in the way of the view of a pretty door.
Agreed!! My apartment in Ireland had a big gorgeous Georgian yellow door - I loved it.
ReplyDeleteI am such a fan of doors. I have an extra data entry only for pictures of doors and windows.... Wherever I go and I see beautiful doors or windows I photograph away...you've got some truly lovely ones up there!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing!
love.
ReplyDeleteI so want to go to that last door and sand it down, prime and paint. What a waste.
ReplyDeleteI love the last door. Wear and tear included. But the teardrop/boteh-shape panes are the best part.
ReplyDeleteYes to Cube and AAL. The tear drops (although I first called them paisleys) with the different mouldings topped off the with rope surround: smashing! I wonder who designed this.
ReplyDeleteI love European doors that are so interesting!
ReplyDeleteI love brightly colored or uniquely designed doors. They give a home personality and really set the tone for the rest of the house. These ones are great, especially the bright yellow and "spooky" white door.Very cool
