La Bibliothèque Salon is not an interior, its a vision, not for the future but a direction for the next decade where the new focus is about texture and craftsmanship instead of superficial visual satisfaction. A library is an introvert space that gives you shelter and comfort, but does not distract the attention from the books as the main starting element of the designing process. But a library also offers you a place to sit and relax, the surrounding atmosphere for an interesting conversation  whilst giving the user a sense of comfort and sanctity. A large silver travertine cube is placed in the middle of a rectangular space. It is a room in a room with the propose to find an inner focus. The perfect symmetry give you an immediate sense of control of the space and a sense of serenity. The selection of materials, the Quartz paint, the unfilled honed travertine, all refer to the art work of Stefan Vanfleteren as the rough surface of hand-made paper. Details of craftsmanship can be visible in every object we designed.
