I know well how colour can change the look and feel of a place, or of anything really... and for me these two old Victorian homes have very different personalities. It would not surprise me if the colour choices reflect the personalities of its owners. Julie's comments on environmental factors used in house design are spot on... I know too little about the history of architecture and could be wrong, but it seems to me that looking at a home's position in nature is a fairly recent phenomena in the West while Eastern feng shui masters have known its importance for centuries.Franciscahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10733111654769386624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34645388.post-42103269272411875422011-01-31T16:05:09.080+11:002011-01-31T16:05:09.080+11:00These are so cute.

A lot of older anglo Australians live in the houses and Macedonians are the biggest migrant group in the suburb. Then probably Lebanese but the Chinese and Bangladeshi migrants may have overtaken them recently, with many moving into the new high rise flats near the railway station.Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16361781616939928650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34645388.post-55527699386248831252011-01-31T11:05:06.134+11:002011-01-31T11:05:06.134+11:00Houses we wouldn't have looked at twice in the...Houses we wouldn't have looked at twice in the 50's now look lovely.
