MILKTOAST: lusting after these light fixtures.

lusting after these light fixtures.

this 1880s brownstone in brooklyn's cobble hill is awesome but it's the light fixtures that i'm losing myself over. they're super simple, modern yet industrial, and bring a cohesion to the style of the apartment--old and new. the fixture in the main room, 3 arm industrial chandelier, and the one over the couch have me gawking. amazing.

3 arm industrial chandelier, $1800.00

the brownstone served as the office for workstead, a young architecture firm, based out of brooklyn, led by robert highsmith and stefanie brechbueler.

milk and toast -- a favourite and most nurturing combination. I like my milk ice cold with a straw (one of those cute paper straws with red stripes), or steaming hot, flavoured with a little vanilla and a lot of cinnamon. my toast -- usually two slices at once, and oftentimes flanked with apple slices or cheddar cheese -- is buttery and crunchy.

while growing old together with this blog, and watching it evolve, I've found joy in the milk and toast of my life, and have carved out a little place in the world wide web to record it. stick around, read a few entries -- perhaps you'll find something you love or can relate to.
