Sea glass

Until the 1960s, it was common for some companies and turists in coastal towns to dispose of empty glass in the water. These broke aparts during flouncing and the sharp shards (commonly triangular shaped) were smoothed roundish by water, sand and rocks. Glass have a frosted patina, because of corrosive effect of salty water. This process takes about 20 years. Sea glass can be found almost in every color of the rainbow, but turquoise, brown, green and white (clear) are the most common. They are perfect decorating elements for a waterside theme interior.

Interior design – Home staging – Real estate investment

Interior desing = planning, makeover and furnishing the property for customizing it to the requirements and style of the owner(s). The owner sets the budget.
Home staging = furnishing/refurnishing the property (which is frequently inhabited) for fitting it to the taste and requirements of the more customers-to-be. The staging contains smaller makeovers but the spent amount on it should be maximum the 5% of the property’s value.
Real estate development/investment = buying a property in bad condition, then reselling it after a full makeover. It should be done in a way that the property fits the taste and requirements of the more customers-to-be. The spent amount and the profit after selling have to be conciliated.

It has Arabic roots, reached Spain through the Moors and spread in Europe in the 14th century. It was really popular in the 1960-70s. Recently, it appeared again in interior design. For example, macramé curtains are good alternatives to the mass-produced string-curtains.
