A project that is finished!

Today a few pictures of a project that is nearly finished.
About a year ago we designed a few rooms for the new built house of a client.
The living room, the dining room, the library and the entry hall are now finished.
At this moment I am working on the design of the study room, so I will show you the pictures of this room later when it is finished.
All these rooms are designed by me and the woodpaneling is made by Lefèvre Interiors.

Now we go to take a look in the library. I don't have any picture of the before situation. Sorry for that.

The first picture on below is a view from the dining room into the entry hall. Here you can see the wallpaper used in the dining room.

And this is our photographer Jo Pauwels in action!

Most of you do know his work, because Jo is also the photographer of all the gorgeous interiors in the Beta Plus books.

I hope you enjoyed the pictures of my project!

Have a wonderful Christmas time!
