Living Room Table

I had been thinking for months to make a coffee table with old wood but I had not found the material. As soon as I saw the wood, renovating the horrible table I used to have became top priority. 


Here are some things we have on it.
*Wooden puzzles.                *80's atlas and 1960's" Gould's Tropical Birds" image book.
*Mexican Sun God mask.          *Mexican alebrije, Pegasus carved out of wood.

Kitchen's lamp

The first thing we have changed in the kitchen is the lampshade covering the main light. It used to be a basket, witch I personally like but it did block to much light.

For this project we used :              *Brass rings                        *Wood stick curtain 
                                   *Translucent paper                        *String


A layout of the rings before building


The different textures filter the light and create a warm and inviting feeling in the kitchen. I'm very happy with how it turned out. 



Kitchen Project

We have started to re-style our kitchen, it has never had a very define style so we decided it was time to give it some direction and transform this space. Here are some pictures of how it has been looking for around one year.

Bathroom

The bathrooms on this building are very small but bright, this room faces south so it gets direct sunlight.

I decided to paint it with vertical stripes that go around the ceiling trying to make it look wider. The shower curtain was a gift from my brother, made with a picture he took of the fernsehturm.

Cabinet Project

The first furniture I owned in Berlin was an old edition IKEA cabinet, it was a gift but just not my style.
Here is what happened to it as soon as i came to Leopoldstraße. 


 This is how it looked when I got it.

*Cupboard                                    *Paint
*Rectangular fish-tank                   *Color electrical tape



Now the cabinet has a display area, there are some micro-worlds I made.
