Graffiti wall in an old rice mill
Invalid Displayed Gallery
In the middle of this former rice mill that was built in the 1890s stands a colorful brick wall. The section that also gives space to self-expression is surrounded by antique pieces purchased in the French District of New Orleans.
The walls that surround the living room function as a gallery as well. The impressive structure is complemented by a dark brown, classic sofa, which at the same time closes the room/space as well. In front of a huge window we can see a last century medical bed, in turn afore it a worn small table is lying modestly.
The gate of the kitchen is indicated/marked by a slightly cracked wooden beams, on which adorns a family name embossed from tin-plated letters. First, an artistic loom attracts the attention on itself. The sterile, white kitchen furniture is heated by the old butcher table, on which’s center there is a traditional, portable “pantry’.
In the dining room, white display case and dining table harmonizes with each other. Various colorful chairs and exciting lamps, patterned vases liven up harmony.
Directly above the kitchen there is the bedroom. Wooden beams frame the double bed. The wooden crate, the upholstered chair and the distinctive sofa that are at the end of the bed are all vintage treasures, whose old-fashioned atmosphere is thrown-up by the folding screen decorated with oriental motifs.
From the rooftop terrace you can have a great view to the Mississippi River.
We can see a loft that keeps eclectic, modern and historical details. The old furniture rustically emphasizes the crudity of the graffiti drawings and red brick walls.
