Hard not to love Spanish Style for They truly seem to be the ones
who always color outside the lines.
They're very much Free Spirits in they're thinking -
Salvador Dali and Antoni Gaudi kind of define the word itself.
Spanish design is often Fluid, Rythmic and Sculptural.
The Spanish are Masterful in execution and Thoughtful in
the way they reveal a surprise.
So, let's start the trip to Spain with a little Fantastic Street Flamico
