Happy St. Patrick's Day, Everyone! My favorite color is grass green, and they say that green is a color in which everyone has a shade, so one more excuse to feel lucky and wear my favorite color works for me :)
Boy... this is a tough topic for me for today's CV. My own personal front door is nothing special. The front doors I look at most are those of my school, classrooms, professors' offices. But something I have noticed in DC is that front doors are often colored with funky (and I do mean funky!) paints that match the trim or the color of the neighboring house.
For example, along my route to school there's a green house with a blue door. To the right of it is a blue house with a green door. And to the right of the blue house with the green door is yet another house with a door to match the first of the three. I don't know if these neighbors are just that good of friends, if there's only one owner, or if there was just enough leftover paint to spread around the 'hood, but it's definitely eye-catching.

Doors in your area sound just like some of the doors in Chicago. xo
ReplyDeletethey sound funky those colour-coordinated houses. funky is fun, we have too much seriousness in cities as it is :)
ReplyDeleteSounds like the neighbours all have funky taste and like to compliment each other.
ReplyDeleteI think that's a really cool idea in a town as serious as DC. Shows a sense of humor, doesn't it?
ReplyDeleteI try to imagine all these different doors and colors ! It' nice ! Really !
ReplyDeleteHappy St. Patricks day to you too!
ReplyDeleteCan we see a picture of these doors, please?
