I feature architectural homes or buildings here because I’ve always been fascinated by them. I always wonder.. who’s the brain behind this building, what made them come up with the design, and where did they get that light fixture (laughs). I share my love with you guys everyday and today is no different. Today, I’m still crushing on work from Martin Gómez and his architectural team. This time, they’ve completed a beautiful home named ‘La Pedrera‘ in La Barra, Punta del Este, Uruguay. Click above for more photos. Enjoy
La Pedrera

Beautiful home! I think it’s their use of shapes and high contrast in that bedroom that I love the most!

You may be right Barbara. And I can totally see myself coming home with a huge smile on my face if I lived here lol. I hope you’re having a good day

I went to the link to see some of the other images. A beautiful home indeed – yet the living room/family room is (by far) by fav. Hope you had a good day Kay!

#27 by Bam's Kitchen on February 29, 2012 - 7:01 PM
Gorgeous home but I think that lounge chair by the pool is calling me. Does this home come with a pool boy? Life is good…. BAM
#28 by Purely.. Kay on February 29, 2012 - 7:24 PM
I think every home, with a pool, should come with a cabana boy fir us ladies to harass lol. And life is good my friend
. I hope you had a good day
#29 by island traveler on February 29, 2012 - 7:05 PM
The entrace alone got me mesmerized. If I’m going to have a dream home, I would like to have something this magical. Thank you… Have a beautiful day my friend….
#30 by Purely.. Kay on February 29, 2012 - 7:25 PM
Hey Island Traveler.. how have you been? I hope well my friend

#31 by belleontheboulevard on February 29, 2012 - 7:38 PM
So beautiful. I love the look of this home. It was built perfectly.
#32 by Purely.. Kay on March 1, 2012 - 12:28 AM
I totally agree Pat. And with all this stone work, it must have taken awhile.. but beauty usually does takes awhile
. I hope you had a good day
#33 by Kelly @ Inspired Edibles on February 29, 2012 - 8:53 PM
If I could just move the stone fireplace into the bedroom all would be perfect
. What a stunning spot Kay.
#34 by Purely.. Kay on March 1, 2012 - 12:30 AM
Oh a fireplace in the bedroom is so darn romantic. You might not come out of there
lol. I hope you had a good day
#35 by My Inner Chick on February 29, 2012 - 9:40 PM

That stone work is amazing.
#38 by Purely.. Kay on March 1, 2012 - 12:32 AM
It really is. And if I owned this home, I would totally invite you and Katherine over for a visit.. but I have to win the lottery first lol. I hope you and Katherine had a good day
#39 by Tandy on March 1, 2012 - 2:05 AM
I want that bed by my pool
#40 by Purely.. Kay on March 1, 2012 - 2:35 AM
Me too Tandy

#41 by Lisa at fLVE on March 1, 2012 - 3:19 AM
Share away. I think it’s always wonderful to see what’s out there that’s unique and or just beautiful. I think many of us have a preset notion of what we like and stick to it, and it’s always nice when you come up with things we don’t expect, and we are like, “Wow!” And that’s just wonderful~
#42 by Purely.. Kay on March 2, 2012 - 1:20 AM
You are absolutely right, sometimes we do have a preset notion on what we like.. and sometimes that doesn’t allow us to see if we actually like something else. So to be on the safe side, I just say I like something but keep looking lol. I hope you had a good day
#43 by kitchenbelleicious on March 1, 2012 - 8:38 AM
one word, breathtaking!
#44 by Purely.. Kay on March 2, 2012 - 1:21 AM
I agree with you
. I could come home to this everyday 
. I hope you had a good day
#45 by smartfoodandfit on March 1, 2012 - 6:51 PM
Stunning! I love the last photo, makes a great place to have a white party for my birthday in May!
#46 by Purely.. Kay on March 2, 2012 - 1:34 AM
You have a point, this home is perfect for an event like your birthday
. And it should be an event because you are such an amazing person 
. I hope you and your family had a good day
#47 by Carolyn Chan on March 3, 2012 - 4:11 AM
That’s a HOME ??? Looks more like a resort…
#48 by Purely.. Kay on March 4, 2012 - 3:32 PM
I know!! It’s simply amazing and so darn beautiful
. I hope you had a great weekend
#49 by rsmacaalay on March 5, 2012 - 2:38 AM
Look at that poolside, I feel I wanna hang out in there for the whole day
#50 by Purely.. Kay on March 5, 2012 - 6:57 PM
I know.. it’s the perfect home to make you feel like you’re on vacay everyday
. I hope you had a great day
#51 by spiderpaw on March 5, 2012 - 5:46 PM
The stone work on the outside of this place is stunning. This house just rocks.
#52 by Purely.. Kay on March 5, 2012 - 7:16 PM
I know.. it’s just gorgeous.. and I’m sure it was a labor of love being that it probably took awhile to complete. Stunning my friend. I’m happy you liked it
. I hope you had a great day
