I won't be here for the next 2 months due to a lot of work that has to be done in a short time. I'll be having lots of stressful days, sleepless nights... and hopefully I'll come back as an architect. 

See you in summer!

P.S. I've also left the 365 project for a while. But I'll finish it as soon as I'm able to do it again!

Tolix.

This is the Tolix A chair, designed by French entrepreneur Xavier Pauchard in 1934.

They are available as chairs, armchairs, benches, stools... in galvanized steel, perforated... in multiple versions.

I have to say I'm not a huge fan of metal chairs; but I do like industrial esthetics. Moreover, I've been seing Tolix chairs all over restaurants and cafés lately and I must admit I'm beginning to like these colorful chairs.

Although, I'd prefer them in grey tones, because I think (in my humble opinion) they're better put as "rough" metal with wood and other neutral colours, such as darker greys, black and white.

More information at Tolix.

Fourth of the dozen!

April it's been a really fun month with this project. I did miss lots of days in between, and had to "rush" to be able to finish the month in time, but as it gets sunnier and warmer I've been outdoors more often, and it's been a little easier to take pictures in different places and spaces.

Also, this has been a month of discoveries. I've taken the majority of the pictures with my iPhone and I've tried some new photography apps to edit my shots.

I've reached the 100th picture already! I'm so proud of myself, because perseverance it's not that into me.

Here you have the pictures of April. Let's get on with May!
