Inevitably if I start talking about mosaics with someone here in Australia, the other person asks me if I know about the sofas in Fitzroy in Melbourne, Australia.
I’ve never actually been to Fitzroy. All I know is that it is an extremely colourful area in all senses of the word. But thanks once again to flickr I can check the sofas out. And so can you.

Ahh, I’d forgotten about a lot of the street architecture in Melbourne. Its been a while since I’ve been back. I don’t think I ever saw this one before. This sort of stuff is what makes Melbourne one of the coolest cities on the planet.
