I really can’t get over the use of color in this two-story wood, concrete, and glass home owned and designed by architect Barbara Bestor.  The pink and turquoise is a ‘tongue-in-cheek feminist declaration…Our pink is ironic and assertive,’ says Barbara, who lives there with her two daughters.  Ironic or not, — Continue reading
