Looking Good and Tasting Even Better, Istanbul!

    Filo-sofers!

    My sincerest apologies for not updating sooner 

    but a series of computer and internet troubles 

    left me almost entirely technologically crippled. 

    So thanks for being patient

    Now let's get back to Turkey shall we? 

    (all of these things, both architectural and edible, are as good as they look)

The Geometry in Your Dessert

    Have you ever noticed how much geometric inspiration
    can be found in your dessert?

    It's entirely possible that all of the baumkuchen I've been eating lately
    is to blame for this post but...

    don't you see it??

    whether it's that perfect rectangle of flan

    or that tantalizing triangle of torte

    or that still-warm square of beignet

    One of the best places to look for form and design inspiration
    is right there in your pastry

   This last one-
   (my one-day-old-half-eaten-chocolate-chip-bagel-birthday-cake-stand-in)
   probably doesn't count but will still hopefully provide you with some
   amusement/ food for thought.

    the moral of this story: don't skip dessert!

Welcome to Filo-Sofia

 

Hello There!

    This blog will be about architecture 

  
    What I'm seeing

    

    Inside

    and Outside

    

    Big Things

     and Little Things

    This blog will be about what I'm making

    Or growing

    

    What I'm eating

   

    or not eating

    

    Whenever possible, this blog will be about herring, cringles, 

    and waffle sundaes

    This blog will be about art

    art that looks like reality

    and reality that looks like art

    This blog will be about reverse waterfalls 

    Bears

    

    And sometimes Jazz

    My hiding places

    And my destinations

    This blog will be about design

    in all things

    and sand that looks like snow

    I hope you'll join me
