A Spanish Courtyard Extraordinaire

Back in Oct. '09 I posted about Lorenzo Castillo's beautiful Madrid home. Now here is the equally stunning courtyard. Aren't the black and white tiles incredible?
I particularly like the photographer's choice of photo here - with the reflections in the antique mirror.

All images from Nuevo Estilo, here, name of photographer not known. Hope you have a great start to your week.

The Spanish people really know how to do a courtyard, don't they? This is a wonderful space. I love the antique mirror most of all. Thanks for sharing.

Wow! I love the flooring pattern, classic. But, I think what makes it work so well are the plants. Just brings the classic look to a climax. WoW!

Gorgeous courtyard! I like the white/black tiles too. It resembles my Grandma's fabulous bathroom tiles. Every time I visit Grandma's home, she always tells me about home design, including different designs of tiles. I noticed that she keeps on telling me about the fabulous tile stores in our area. I'm referring to the best tile stores (Tampa, Florida area tiles distributors). That's why I always look forward to visiting Grandma's abode. Thanks for sharing the stunning photos, My Notting Hill!
