This is our Library/Tea room, the way it looks at the moment - as work in progress.
Not too much is happening in here at the moment - this time I wanted to show you the space from this very incipient phase, so you can really see how it will evolve / what it's going to morph into.
This is not a completely enclosed space (meaning that it doesn't have walls or doors on all sides) as you can see in the photos.
I call this space 'Tea room' because with the outdoor area that opens in front of it it's simply a great pleasure to have a chat over a tea/coffee in here.

I hung them because I am absolutely sure that I want to keep the mirror collection in this spot - being a niche it's a little darker so the mirrors visually expand the space and bring more light in here. In the empty space below the mirrors I am going to place a slim desk/console table. |

Because it's such an open space I wanted to give it a sense of enclosure. The palms I chose to place on each side act like a demarcation, a visual boundary. |
