Wall Partitioning

The challenge with this following project was, that it had to be completely temporary, yet safe and sound. After carefully analysing the space, it was clear that the floor was sacred and thus I couldn´t anchor anything onto the floor. Since the ceiling surface was rather big, I decided not to anchor there neither.  When confronted with a situation like this, I generally think of the removal too, and try as much as possible to make things a bit better and easier for whoever will do it. Not anchoring onto both horizontal and vertical surfaces, make it clear that there´ll be different forces going into different directions, so it was important to come up with an indestructible and solid framework. Another complication was on the door´s framework. Once again I couldn´t anchor onto the floor. Doors are most likely one of the most used objects in any building and need to be 100% firm and square. There was only one week point that had me thinking night after night! Came up with an unimaginable design.

Parquet Flooring

I do quite a lot of preparations for Regie inspections. There was an initial problem with the parquet floor, a small scuff mark left behind by a bed´s leg. There´s no other possible way of fixing such a small patch, so it´s as simple as getting the machines out and re-sanding and varnishing it. Sounds simple, but you need to know your story as these machines are extremely powerful. If you don´t have a steady rhythm, you´ll feel the floor is not levelled and bumpy once finished. And then you´re again one step behind again and a few pennies lighter to have it redone. Get it done properly; there are no shortcuts with wooden floors!
