design obsession: all white spaces

happy friday. we are nearing the end of january so it must be admitted, 2012 is well underway. new beginnings are always inspiring to me - they make me want to toss out everything and start fresh.

i am finding myself inexplicably drawn to white spaces as of late. there is something so clean and new and hopeful about them. light always looks especially good in all white spaces, and i am nothing if not a sucker for good light.

this post is perhaps a bit image heavy, but they are all just too glorious. against an all white background, subtle variations have more substance, more depth. don't you just feel calm looking at all of them?

here's to a fresh start!
...happy sophisticating...
