Happy New Year, friends! Cristina from FujiFiles here, and it appears I'm not alone in my post-holiday winter blues. How ever are we meant to brave the winter chill without the momentum of the holidays to get us through? By retreating into our beautiful, beachy abodes and sipping grapefruit mimosas of course! In the event that you (unfortunately) don't live beachside, however, I recommend large scale art pieces instead - fake it 'til you make it!
These beachscape prints were taken by photographer Massimo Vitali, from Como, Italy. His recognizable Italian beach panoramas feature dreamy blue landscapes dotted with sunkissed beachgoers - one look and you'll forget the grey skies outside!
Hang one of Massimo Vitali's large photographs on your wall and you'll feel as if you're gazing out the window of a resort hotel, practicing one of my favorite pastimes - people watching!

Beautiful beachscapes! Gazing at them definitely helps beat the winter blue a bit - you can almost imagine yourself on a warm seaside! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea! I know just the one I need! Bye, bye winter blues :)

ReplyDeleteI really like the first picture and yes, it looks great in there because the place is amazing! But we need to be careful with it, not overdue it, otherwise it can be "tacky".
ReplyDeleteBut it's an interesting idea.

Love this! Sadly, it would look sort of ridiculous in my house. It's such a cool idea though. Maybe to make it work for me, instead of just the painting, I could take that entire room;)
ReplyDeleteI love this idea! The first room is so unbelievably gorgeous. I'm obsessed!
ReplyDeleteIt's official... I am on the hunt for over sized beach prints! I am so excited! I already feel like summer is on its way! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI've had that top image in my inspiration folder for weeks, but I think I like the second photo better. Delish!
ReplyDeleteThe beachscape is amazing. And I love the idea of one huge piece of art in a room.
ReplyDeleteI can't decide which I like most: the photos or the wallpaper in that first photo...
ReplyDeleteSo pretty! I think there is a reason why people use beach elements for decor, so uplifting:-)
ReplyDeleteAmazing photos - they are so refreshing! I can't tear my eyes away from the room in the first photo. It's stunning!
ReplyDeleteLove his work!
ReplyDeleteGreat post!
Great post Cristina!
ReplyDeleteI have that second home in my inspiration files. Llove it.
So glad I know who the photographer of that picture is now! Thank you...

I can not get enough of that chair. It's almost reminiscent of the sand in the beach print on the wall.
ReplyDeleteis it possible to get these prints anywhere? i couldn't find anything...
ReplyDeleteThank you Cristina! Fabulous prints and the interiors aren't so bad either!
