Creative craftwork

Next creative craftworks also fit in here for me. Besides the therapeutic handling of paper and cardboard, I enjoy the mathematical puzzling to make this pieces fit together. Note that no glue or tape was used...

Decoration

A nice atmosphere doesn't come only from light and colours. A decorative twist can also give a great feeling. I like to fit in some funny elements.

Bedroom

The dark blue walls and anthracite ceiling with stars give this bedroom something romantic. The tree (!) build-in wardrobes cause the room to have four doors in total. I painted the main entrance white and the other doors got the same blue as the walls, so they don't stand out. The picture frames at the wall can be hung in different patterns, there are several nails in place. All the white accents splash between the dark colours and keep the room quite light.

Hall

This dark hallway got a sunny twist because of the bright yellow paint. The dark floor and dark door borders keep it from getting to lame. There are lots of doors in this hall. Instead of trying to hide them, I stressed them out by using dark borders and plain white doors.

Bathroom

The same bathroom as before. I found the colours a bit too dark and now they got a fresh green tone.

Bathroom

The walls of this bathroom used to be white. The space was far too cool and hungered to some colour.

Office

This is my own office room. De desk and the closets are recycled and painted in two colours. I also worked with a wall full of storage. Because there are lots of books and magazines I used open storage. Part of the wall has magnetic paint on it, so it can be used as a magnetic board.

Kitchen

I designed this kitchen with a good friend and her husband. They wanted more light and a better use. The lowered cooker together with the sink in a standalone unit enables them to cook facing the window and kitchen table. The dish washer machine and drawers with plates and stuff are at the side of the kitchen table. The width of the piece is only one meter, but washer, sink and cooker are 60 centimetres, so the drawers are only 40 centimetres. The fridge is at the side because it has to be easily reached from the living room. A smaller piece with sliding doors delivers more work top space. The sliding doors are painted with board paint and are used to freshen up the kitchen with chalk drawings. Most of the drawers have an extra inside drawer. One of the drawers is at full height and has some horizontal bars to store plates vertically. A big sliding door is hiding the washing room where the freezer is standing.
