Synopsis
When Martine was searching for a new place to live, she knew immediately that she would buy this house, even before she’d seen the inside of the building. “I saw immediately what I could make of it, how it would look. The renovation was a lot of work. The building was an old farm rebuilt after the first war. The toilet was outside, just a hole in a piece of wood”, says Martine. First, the house was renovated. Under a false ceiling, the wooden construction was hidden. I only had to clean the wood with terpentine.” In the kitchen were these cement tiles on sand and I reused them, after cleaning but then back for the new kitchen floor.
Inside, Martine choose a lot of natural materials. “I like to use wood. I painted it white, inside and outside. Lots of white paints was used for this project”; she explains.
