    Can we just take a moment to appreciate how beatifully designed in their logic and simplicity is this kind of traditional architecture that fits the terrain and makes comfortable homes in a rather harsh environment?

    • @smolworldworkshop
      @smolworldworkshop  Před 9 měsíci +4

      I agree, I love how the architecture is integrated in the landscape there!

    Sometimes it pays to put yourself through the grind. And in this project, your stone work resulted in perfection!

    • @smolworldworkshop
      @smolworldworkshop  Před 8 měsíci +2

      Thank you so much!! To be honest I wasn’t sure how the stones would turn out. But you’re right, it definitely pays to trust the process! Thanks for watching :)

    Beautiful! I get so tired of dioramas of dilapidated buildings from the Depression that are overdone on YT. You nailed the colors and scale, and the flowers and shrubs accented the bold blue and stark white exteriors perfectly. I've subscribed.

    Lovely job! Had a neighbour who decorated the whole exterior of his house in the gorgeous white and blue Greek island aesthetic. Used to look at it in nostalgic admiration whenever I walked past - memories of idyllic Greek summer holidays. And then he sold it, and the new owners not only scrapped the colour scheme, they clad the building in fake stone. 😱😱😱

    • @smolworldworkshop
      @smolworldworkshop  Před 10 měsíci +7

      Thank you!! And too bad the new owners redecorated! Cycladic Architecture is so iconic and beautiful!

    I went to Santorini last September and revisiting this October. You have this spot on mate, right down to the Bougainvillea which grows all over the Island. My wife was impressed with this build as well and is probing me to see if I can have a shot at it 🤔😂

    Your texture method is actually vary accurate to how some of that is really done. The tool used often is called stomp brush or some say slamp brush (Slap/stomp).

    That stucco is amazing. I don't doubt the time that went into it for a second. I've only made a small fireplace with spackle covering it for a stucco like appearance and I was sure it was going to be the death of me 😅
    Those flowers also are an amazing idea, they really do look leaps and bounds better than the foam ones.
    Seeing this finished out in the sun with the shadows casting naturally and the wind wiggling the plants... amazing work, truly.

    • @smolworldworkshop
      @smolworldworkshop  Před 9 měsíci +3

      Thank you!!! I don’t know what I was thinking when I though that the stucco was only going to take a day haha!

    That is really cool- Only thought one more flower color and the steps and balcony might need a little foot wear. Then possibly a coffee cup left on one of the tables. Then a stick broom for sweeping up the fallen blossoms left leaning on the backside of one of the post. LOL Love it. The stone pavers look amazing.
