van-de-velde-schrank-2.jpgDesign drawing for “Schloss Lauterbach”, Germany (See: www.schlosslauterbach.com) along Henry van de Veldes design from 1907.
Two niches, (you might say alcove) in the hallway were missing built-in wardrobes. Unfortunately, we have no pictures of this part of the building to show the original antiques. These niches cannot stand empty, so we decided to set out on our own following the guidelines and the van de Velde work elsewhere in the castle.
Side bar: Evolution in terms of ecological responsibility: We are going to use the existing furniture from an old bedroom (no name design). The furniture will be taken apart, reshaped and put together to form the new wardrobes. More of the building process to come soon… reduce . reuse . recycle.
