I popped in some images of the rather quaint British Front Door, as seen in various parts of London and the striking difference makes me want to laugh for some reason - I don't know why...
Now, which ones do you prefer?

ReplyDeleteFun post, Heather.

ReplyDeletelove the London additiona too jx
Hi V - thanks so much for popping by! yes, I must agree, I love the first one, too.
ReplyDeleteHi Lori - wow, it's so great to see you here, I am huge fan of your website.
Jules - yes, she does and what a lovely area she lives in - wowsers! x
I agree, the yellow door is a stunning! Its interesting how 'cultural' paint colour can be. I think people are hugely influenced by their environment (natural & manmade) in which they live. Great post!
ReplyDeleteWell, thank you! When you say, environmental, you're referring to light, right? I think light place a huge part in how colour is perceived - hence the startling difference between colours used here, in the UK and those in Australia. I'm not sure you could get away with those colours here without doing someone actual retinal damage...
ReplyDeleteI love Jules' blog, too! My favorite doors are the Paddingtons with the numbers atop!
ReplyDeleteWonderful collection of doors. Color definitely gives the entrance of a home some character.
