Blossom

The house softens. Three bedrooms open their balconies to Alpine light.

« Le végétal est source perpétuelle de vie. Sans l’herbe et l’arbre tout le règne animal disparait. Par les tiges et les troncs, la vie surgit et se répand. Le moment miraculeux de cette expansion est celui de la floraison. »
— René Barjavel
