This island in Scotland inspired designer Vivienne Westwood - SilverKris
"Inside a chimneyless, low-slung traditional house on the island's shore, woody smoke from an open fire saturates the sooty interior, wrapping visitors as palpably and warmly as a tweed cloak. These thatched dwellings, often weighted with fishing nets and heavy stones, sheltered hardy islanders for centuries against Atlantic gales, and their doorway views open onto an ocean that seems to stretch unbroken toward the Americas." - SilverKris
