Although I normally only like pink as found in the garden (see bottom thumbnails *), I fell in love with this pink home in Italy. Please note that the details (window frames, birds) are painted on the building, Trompe l'oeil style, French for "trick of the eye"!

I had NOT noticed that the details were just painted on the building until I saw you mentioned it. WOW! Awesome painting there. It really gives the building that special touch. I wish I were so creative.
ReplyDeleteOh, I love it! I have a lovely image in my mind now of someone up on a ladder, painting those birds, putting such care into the face his/her home would show the world.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely love it!!!! Great photo.
ReplyDeleteHappy Weekend.

ReplyDeleteThe painting on the house is AMAZING!!! I'll have to bring hubby by for a visit when he gets home today. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting!
Great idea painting the bits on , they work well too, just hope they don't have to paint it often.
ReplyDeleteI shudder at a thought that I would have to come back to this house every day ;-)
ReplyDeleteBut I can see how it attracts a photographer, great shot! And the flowers are beautiful.

ReplyDeletethat is so beautiful! I absolutely love the windows in the first photo!

That is a lovely pink home!
ReplyDeleteI love that pink building and the detail that was painted on it. The flowers are lovely also.
ReplyDeleteOh yes, there are a lot of pink houses in Italy, I had some difficulties to find pink things ! And then I remembered we had already pink as theme and just posted the old once, lol !
ReplyDeleteWir hatten auch Bahnstreik gestern ! Alle streiken plötzlich, in Deutschland auch. Ich weiss dass die Amerikaner rosa für Brustkrebs gewählt haben, ist ja auch gut, aber jetzt im Oktober an rosa zu denken (oder in) fällt mir schwer !
A pink house! Very creative and beautiful.
ReplyDeletethat's a neat "trick"! i thought the window frames were real! :)

You have such good taste. The house is gorgeous. Such a lovely shade of pink too!
ReplyDeleteTake care,
Connie
This house is delightful.Here in Suffolk, UK many old cottage are pink. Happy Photohunting :o)
ReplyDeleteI think it takes a particular type of building to allow pink to work. Lovely photograph.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pink pics. I'm not a huge fan of pink, but certain pink shades can be very pretty. Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteOh that's very clever, it looks like real moulding around the windows!
ReplyDeleteThat is stunning. I have heard of this treatment before. How realistic.
ReplyDeleteI agree the house is beautiful in pink and the flowers are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThe pink house is very pretty, I like the color combo with the turquoise!
ReplyDeleteThat is a lovely pink building! I love the details that are painted on. Very cool. :)
ReplyDeleteMy pink photo.
I love that pink building, and decorated so beautifully. Love your flowers, too, and the way you have them arranged.
ReplyDeleteMaybe i could live in apink house if it were that one.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE That pink Mar...It is so warm and rich...BEAUTIFUL! And you know I am crazy about Bouganvilla....
ReplyDeleteI couldn't make the picture any bigger than what it was on you blog---I mean the House....I wanted to see those birds larger....WONDERFUL choices!
Gosh Mar, that building is beautiful. It reminds me of all the coloured houses I saw on Burano, an island near Venice. Did you know this is featured over on this blog.
ReplyDeleteOhhhh... I´d love to live there...
ReplyDeleteor just visit your garden, girlfriend. May I call you Mrs Greenthumb? ;)
Neat pics for the week!!
ReplyDeleteTHAT is an awesome house and photo!!!! *whistles*
ReplyDeleteI love when the do fake objects so very realistic. One must have to admire the artist that has done it! Very skilled. I'm envious.
Just so fabulous. At first I thought the birds were shadows of real birds flying around the house. And the window frames are just so lovely.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting.
waw... I wish I am the owner of this house. So sweet and lovely. This is definitely my ideal home sweet home. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat Pink!
I don't usually like pink, but it does suit that house!
ReplyDeleteNice ! I didn't even notice the trompe l'oeil before I read the whole post !
ReplyDeleteThat is so awesome, all the house here are a horrible yellow/pebble colour. They arent as vibrant and sexy as this!
ReplyDeleteHow did I miss commenting on this, as it seems I did? Gorgeous building, I do love the style, but I especially love the bougainvillea (it is, isn't it?) - one of my favourites, I adore it, but it didn't fit with saying I didn't like garish colours. Obviously I do when they are in the right place:)
