Looking back on Charles and Ray Eames’ De Pree House | ArchDaily
A green and shady island with clear, blue skies by day; at night, an indigo blue blanket dotted with stars. In the morning, a fresh breeze scented with green leaves and underbrush flowers awakens you, while in the evening, the breeze carries the salty scent of the sea, bringing you back to the boundary between earth and sky. The house I would design on this island would feature large, airy vaulted windows, plenty of wood, and local raw stones in some areas, especially around the fireplace. The walls and iron frames would be only white, in order not to disturb or distract the eyes from the colors of the external nature. A centrally located glass room extending to full height would house an indoor garden, including a Ficus benjamina evergreen tree. Bookshelves and colorful cushions on white fabric sofas in the living area, and outside, wicker chairs for reading and relaxing in the shade. Music would be audible throughout the island to accompany the different moments of the day, with internet connection to DeBaser. An easel and paints would be available for artistic inspiration. For lunch, breakfast, and dinner, a subscription to theFork, with a welcome variation from the restaurant 'Il barcaiolo' in Taormina. Visits and various advertisements are not accepted.
