Although I don’t understand 99% of swedish Elle Interior, I’m loving some of the magazine’s imagery so much!
...below some quick pictures I took to share it with you ;)

Oh, how delightful; just arrived from vacations and found on my mailbox this month's swedish Elle Interior magazine with Topo Azul starring on a wallpaper shopping special!
This is a good welcome home!
^_^

Hope you all are having a great summer.

Oh...
I'd love to spend a few weeks in this house designed by Roland Terry.

Since I started writing this blog I've received many e-mails from different people asking me to recommend them "not-so-known places" to visit in Barcelona.
Weeks ago I started to work on a Google map gathering some of my favourite places in the city, personal recommendations for independent travelers... Indie music venues, vintage shops, design bookstores, art galleries, gourmet shops, hip bars, useful places, etc.

It's a work in progress so I'll be updating the map, adding more spots and so on...
Hope you find it useful :)


View Indie Barcelona by Pop-pervert.com in a larger map

Desde que comencé pop-pervert.com he ido recibiendo bastantes correos de diferentes personas pidiendome que les recomiende sitios "alternativos" que visitar en Barcelona.
Hace unas semanas comencé a trabajar en un Google map recopilando algunos de mis sitios preferidos en la ciudad que van desde salas donde ver conciertos de música independiente hasta tiendas de ropa vintage, pasando por librerías especializadas en diseño, galerías de arte, tiendas gourmet, bares modernillos y de todo un poco.

Iré actualizando semanalmente el mapa, añadiendo más lugares.
¡Que disfruteis el paseo! ;)

Selgas Cano is an architecture bureau based in Madrid. They have built this amazing space to be used as their office.
Gorgeous!

I'm finally back in Barcelona, the Berlin adventure was great, the city is in bloom, full of vegetation, flowers and even giant mushrooms in the middle of Mitte!!
Below there's a small selection of pictures I took during the trip.
I'll be posting more in detail about the berliner escape soon :)

Last week attended to Caixaforum to see their new art exhibitions and one of them was a retrospective show on Lord Richard Rogers and associates architecture.
My boyfriend and I were delighted with the models and the early work pictures, but the thing we liked most is their manifesto and urban statement. AMEN.

more at her website.

The other day watched “Rivers and Tides” a documentary by artist Andy Goldsworthy.
We were amazed by the beauty of the images and it reminded me how much I love land art (and environmental art).

When I grow older I want in my home a beautiful vertical garden...

I love the colour palette at these architecture and landscape pictures by Grandorge.
