Chateau de Gudanes - Part 2

Gates of Chateau GudanesFrench Chateau

then you know what to expect from these
images of the palace under renovation
in its decaying, yet lovely
undone state (its owners call it Sleeping Beauty).

 Photographer Sonia Szostak is behind the images
of this lookbook for Brahman's
(a furniture and accessories brand), and while
the models are lovely, I can't keep my eyes off
the peely paint, plaster, and wallpaper.
I can't stop admiring the light, the
architecture, the patina, and the quietness
of the timeworn neutral tones inside
the Chateau.

Enjoy and be inspired by the beauty
within these whispery walls, and
I'll meet you at the finish line.

  2. I look forward to watching the transformation of this exquisite chateau! It will take a lot of restraint to be able to stop renovating beyond where they should. How will they know where to draw the line I wonder?
