Today is really a great day to start thinking about garden furniture! With the sun out there, it makes you want to go outside, sit in your garden and have a nice glass of rosé...

These chairs and tables from 'Grythyttan' are my favourite. They are elegant, colourful if you want, retro and, very important, do not cost a fortune.

You can find them at grythyttan.net, where you can also find your local distributor.

Another great thing about sunshine its that it brings me in the mood for bright colours, such as these, which is the exterior of the new Central Saint Giles Development at Oxford Street London. This is a project by Renzo Piano (one of the architects that developped the Centre Pompidou in Paris). According to the architect the challenge was to 'create a development that brings heart and soul into a forgotten part of Central London's urban fabric', which is what it does. It brings joy to the people who live and work here, even on a rainy day!
