Dreaming
Please, tell me all of you;
Do you talk about your dreams
or do you keep them secretly to yourself?
The glassveranda
Please follow me into my imagined house - You enter right here through the glass-veranda. Glass to the right, glasss behind you and glass on the left wall. But through the left glasswall you have a view into Hans room where he has his grandpiano (we will take a closer look there later). Here in the glassveranda with has a south direction it is very light and glittery with a little round table where you can sit and have tea. Here are lots of pots of flowers. It has a crystal crown/lamp in the cealing. The floor here has Portugese- or Morocko-made tiles.
Entering
Now, if you enter this door infront of you, you will enter the house. Welcome! Please hang your coat to thee right. You see the floors here are high polished concrete floors; simple, cheap, yet very elegant and durable. Straight ahead you have a big mirror.
WC
Please, take a look into the little WC on the right. No, you don´t have to, but you know it is in there in case you´ld need to go there…
The heart
If you turn your head left instegad you´ll look into the heart of this house. Here are wooden floors. The cealing in here is 4 meters. You see two beautiful bowshaped windows. Through one of them there is a door out into the green garden. The whole house is very well connected with the outside. In this room is a table that measure 1.20 x 3.60. It is thick. Around this table you do everything. Along the wall facing the windows there is a long cupboard about 90 cm high. You may, When you like, place beautiful things on top of it. The idea is to place everything inside of it that you need to live a full and creative life; glue, scissors, paper, sewingmachine… you name it! There is plenty of space. The table has room for 16 chairs but there are much fewer, so it will feel spacious. All chairs are different. Noaks chair is blue.
Hans room
If you walk back to the room behind this, you will enter Hans rom with his grand piano in the middle. When Noak and I dreameed about this house together the other night, and I thought of this room as being orange, I asked Noak what color it should have, he said “orange“. (We have never talked about orange walls before). Hans room, like all the three rooms facing west, has a hight of 4 meters. He has a bench with soft cusions along one side and a low cupboard for notes and little instruments along the wall on the opposite wall.
The kitchen
Lets run through “the heart” again and into the kitchen. The wall separating the heart from the kitchen is of glass. The woodframes are painted in light grey. I do not know this kitchen yet. But it should be practical and inviting.
Our bedroom
Inside the kitchen you can turn right and enter Hans and my bedroom. In here it is 2.70 to the cealing, just like in the whole eastern part of the building (and the kitchen). This is a peaseful room where you may go at all time of day or night for silence.
Dressingroom
Between our room, the bathroom and Noaks room is a dressingroom with all our clothes.
Bathroom
The bathroom has a big window behind the bathtub with a beautiful scenery outside. In here is the washing machine too.
Noaks room
Noaks room, wich isn´t that big, has a beautiful window in it.
The corridor
Above the narrow corridor running vertically though the house, dividing the east part from the west, is skylight coming in through the roof/cealing. Standing outside the house. On the south or the north side you may look straight through this corridor and out on the other side.
...and also; are your dreams coming true?
/curious
P.S.
When I layed down on my pillow
in the evening,
after having drawn this,
I walked through the entrance
and into my dreamhouse.
I walked through each room
and I could see (most) everything very clearly.
I think, in my fantacy
I will revisit it this evening,
bringing some flowers to put in it.

Dear Olga,
Lovely idea for a house! I also dream of building my very own house some day with a big library, a mexican style kitchen etc.
I share some of my dreams with family and freinds, but some I keep to myself, like treasures to light up my thoughts.

hi Olga! i like sharing dreams and i talk about mine like they really happened. but i could tell people aren't too crazy hearing me babble on and on about how my day was in my dreams. i hope some dreams don't come true. mostly, the dreamworld has become an outlet of fears and angst, as well as a place of play.
how about you?
i am very curious about your house! maybe next time, i hope. :).
ha. it just occurred to me that you were probably talking about dreams dreams - desires of the soul...is that right?
funny, you just made me realized how private that is to me. i guess i do not really share these kinds of dreams so easily.
I visited your blog, saw your question, thought about it and now, coming back, you added something....I like this!
I'm not so clear with my dreams....When dreaming something I often put it away after a short while with a "look what you've got".
But one part of me thinks that if it only would set free my energy I could put more "force" into my dreams.
One of my favourite dreams is, what all could be, if I only could generate more energy, strength and will...
Thanks for your question, it focused something in me!
Dreams are the truth we don´t see clear when we are awake.
You have a beautiful blogg!
wonderful wonderful pictures Olga! as always
I have some special dreams once in a while that helped me to take some important decisions ....
I have dream of whales...and it was one of these wonderful magic one.
:)
