Look at it. Just look at it. Eventually, you might be able to stop, but I couldn’t. Every time I was anywhere near one of the front windows of my house, I had to have another peep. That paint job, in Century Bronze Matt, is spectacular in any light, looking rich and velvety in bright sunshine, feline and vaguely predatory when the clouds close in. It’s so tactile, you actually find your hand running along the side of the car before you open the door.

From beehive cabins to Mongolian yurts, you'll be spoilt for choice if you decide on exploring the great outdoors at home.

There’s a city in central Mexico you probably have never heard of, even though it has a population of over one million. San Luis Potosí has a beautiful cathedral in the main square, side streets with cafés and restaurants under porches to protect those eating outdoors from sun and heat, and many parks that bring greenery at almost every corner.
