"F O U R months before silence: A last glimpse int

"F O U R months before silence: A last glimpse into the King’s music space⁠
⁠
Just a year ago, almost by chance, I stepped into the Music Room of the King’s private apartment at the Neues Palais in Potsdam. I arrived just in time—four months before it would close for restoration. The room felt suspended. Still. With Nicole’s steady help, I opened each shutter one by one, letting the light move across the space inch by inch. It wasn’t just about seeing—it was about feeling how the light landed, how it shaped the room around silence.⁠
⁠
What I found was not grandeur, but intimacy. The kind that’s only possible in a place left untouched for so long. The air carried weight. A kind of quiet that doesn’t ask for anything. The moldings, carved by Johann Christian Hoppenhaupt, weren’t just ornamental—they pressed against the room like memory turned solid. Instruments, masks, fragments of theatre and music all embedded in gold, dulled slightly by time. There was no need to invent emotion. It was already there.⁠
⁠
And that patina—the surfaces darkened by age, by breath, by stillness—was overwhelming. Not worn, not faded, but settled. It had the honesty of something left alone. In a back corner, the Mietke harpsichord stood quietly, in half-light. I didn’t rush. I barely spoke. I just photographed what I could before it all closed again, maybe for years. It stays with me, still".⁠

"P A R H A M House put to use its 17th-century needlework collection with great effect, inspiring planting schemes and even a modern maze. Plus, keeping with a tradition established in the 1920s, 30 buckets of flowers are cut from the garden and grounds each week, filling the house with arrangements – all based on the embroideries around them"⁠

"N E T H E R Lypiatt is a perfectly formed neo-classical Manor House once owned by Prince and Princess Michael of Kent. The perfectly symmetrical, Grade I listed house is supposedly haunted but I think it would make a wonderful family home as it is a grand eighteenth century house in miniature" via @katy_campbell_house_hunter⁠

L U X U R Y on the loggia…⁠
⁠
📍"Vizcaya Museum and Gardens, Miami, Florida… Perched at the edge of Biscayne Bay sits the one-time winter home and Gilded Age gem of industrialist and socialite James Deering… Built in the early 20th century, the landscape and architecture were influenced by Veneto and Tuscan Renaissance styles and designed in the Mediterranean Revival architectural style, along with some Baroque elements…⁠
⁠
The historic villa contains 70 rooms filled with fine decorative art, furnishings and antiques sourced by Deering on his European travels… Fun fact: Deering purchased some ceramics which were to be shipped back to the US on the Titanic however they never made it; fortunately he took out an insurance policy on the pieces and was able to have them replaced…⁠
⁠
The site was, in 2008, designated by the National Trust for Historic Preservation as one of America’s Eleven Most Endangered Sites due to the threat of encroaching high-rise condo development; since then, thankfully, development has been blocked and Vizcaya is now in its own zoning code to ensure future protection"… @vizcaya_museum⁠
