Inside too, complexity is not a part of the guesthouse's vernacular. Light colored or whitened wood - including local, Japanese cedar and reclaimed pine and acacia woods - is utilized throughout both the (smaller) lower and (larger) upper storey guesthouse, from the floors to the carefully selected and custom made furniture items. An earthy, aged ochre color - the shade traditionally used for the exterior of Azorean homes - frames the walls surrounding the upper floor's kitchen and some of the windows.
Meanwhile, the upper storey's ceilings are whitewashed, allowing the slanted wood beams of the roof's construction to infuse the space with character and depth. Both upper and lower storeys boast peaceful garden views allowing plentiful Azorean sunshine to shine through. So while it is said that "home is where the heart is", it's not usual for the home itself to appear as if it's beating with life; in the case of the Pink House however, it is.
