MOVING (forward)

Soon, I can call myself Bobette the builder, because I will be moving to my own new apartment. Done renting. (dancing move)
But first I have to remodel it completely from scratch, and that won't be very funny...
The bright side is a good work out, so maybe I'll be tight before summer and of course dreaming about what kind of style I want to live in.
After some research and loads of inspiration, I finally get the picture(s).

How cool is that weird placed yellow frame around that window?
I'm also a huge fan of letters and numbers (see below) and totally in love with that red cactus, but I fear they don't sell it here... unless I can buy this online.

Well, I'm very curious what the result is going to be. Fingers crossed that I don't let the whole thing collapse or saw off some of my limbs.

GRID #1

It's funny how designers affect each other. Often, you see the similar design coming back.
I design usually with my feeling, but of course there're rules that you can learn. Such as the golden ratio.
Below you can see some examples, who have used the center of the grid. I can understand why they place their words over a face. Eyes are also a very good eyecatcher.
But so you see that everyone is an inspiration for each other.
