Mosaic House

This is the basement entry into a house I think of as 'the mosaic house'. Located in Southeast Portland, in a neighborhood that is getting fixed up in a good way--you can't quite call it gentrifying, I think, but more labors of love. This house's concrete foundation is covered with mosaic work, all the way around. Banisters are made out of old instruments and bicycle chains, whimsical touches abound, such as the cast aluminum cob of corn as a finial of the gate. Always something fun to look at!
