Mismatchérie » stained glass

Loving this photo featured on Apartment Therapy from this year’s Bienalle International Art Exhibit in Venice. The colorful reflection on the floor is from American artist Spencer Finch’s ”Moonlight” installation, an ode to stained glass created by applying gel filters to existing windows throughout the space. The hanging incandescent bulbs make up Finch’s “Moondust,” which complement the windows and add a magical feeling to the room. Check out more photos from: Spring Globe’s flickr

The colors and lighting in this picture are absolutely gorgeous. Stained glass is incredibly dramatic, and the idea of creating a simple and temporary stained glass window with colored film is brilliant. Maybe one day I’ll take that up as a DIY project! In the meantime, here are some easy ways to instantly incorporate a stained glass feel into your home décor.
