apartment of Jozef Peeters, Antwerp
apartment on the Leien, Antwerp

houses Zurich

...
even if I know the city so well
there are still surprises
or you see them with different eyes
the pic from the pharmacy I took a while ago
it doesn't exist anymore
it's an organic shop now
alte möbel und objekte is now a clothing shop
but Rrock has an awesome collection of very rare furniture
not for my budget

this shop I liked a lot
beautiful objects, furniture, lights and a lot from Japan

the last house he did
on the lake of Zurich

only a little toilet

Val Bregaglia

abounded house

...
P. and me passed the house during a trip to the thrift stores in Antwerps surroundings
abounded for years
the wallpaper was mounted in 1936
I found checks from 1956
it has been a hugh nursery for orchids
all things where already took like the doorhandles and lamps
natur takes the property over

wood, concrete, black and white

...
If I wouldn't have become a fashion designer
I would like to be a carpenter
or an architect
or a photographer
or a farmer

that's maybe why I never buy books or magazins about fashion anymore
my wishlist on books is all in the same field
