^ I LOVE the windows in this. I just noticed that it says Cartier on the front So that place really is elegant on the inside and out.

And these are just so unique and amazing:

This is a great thread that was started. I would like to know more about architecture and figure the styles that I like.
Yeah, I was happy to see it bumped; it's one of my favorite threads to post in here in Singles lol.

Are there any styles you know of offhand that you like?

sampa,

I’m glad you like it! I enjoy architecture and interior design. Are there certain styles that stand out or you like more than others?

Yours in His Service,

~Bella
I spent last night going through Pinterest and so far there's a lot of european-style I'm going to share hear some of it. I think cottage-style is maybe one of my favorites besides Manor. I'm still exploring a new to this. I was dating someone that was an architect of beach houses and he does houses on sand inclines. Unfortunately at that time I didn't have much to talk about but I have done architectural tours in different towns.

nothing offhand except possibly european-style. I know there was a dorm I lived in that was all limestone with turrets and I absolutely love that place it was a dream like a castle.

Now this might sound weird (and incredibly simple), but there’s something about water park rides that go through a building. I don’t know, it’s not really something I can explain

I think I'm going to try to take the next 30 days to post different styles that I have found so I can explore this. This is one part of my life as I go through the dating process that I would like to know more while I'm independent of the time that a relationship takes.

So I decided to try for the next 30 days I don't know if it'll be every day to post something about architecture that I like. I will start with Collins living learning center that I spent three years in. It was such a wonderful place and there's something about it and the way it's designed that I loved. I also love the atmosphere of the people that live there in the creative minds. two other things that remind me of it is West Point New York and Harry Potter. I lived in the center building and one year overlooking the courtyard but it was too noisy. So then I had the back side where the brick street was. I love bricklined streets.

I'm definitely no expert lol, especially when it comes to styles specific to certain countries; I'm more knowledgeable on general styles such as Gothic, Renaissance, Neoclassical, Modernism, Post-Modernism, etc. Although, I have taken classes on the history, various philosophies and other aspects of architecture, and do have design experience. It's definitely a passion of mine and I'd love to contribute.

Also, beach homes are my kryptonite.


I like your idea on posting different styles you discover sampa, and focusing on personal growth during this time of singleness. I can share what I've learned if you're interested. Plus it would be a great opportunity for me to reinforce my understanding and dive into new areas.

Thanks so much for your support. I appreciate it as I go on this journey.

thank you and I look forward to hearing more of your thoughts as I post. And hopefully I can also say if there's something I discover and like also. I believe Collins living center probably has copies of it in other places. This is at Indiana University.
