Converted into a place of dwelling or an artist’s workshop, many textile
mills in Northern France reopen their doors to a new lease of life.
Most become lofts as they offer an interesting framework for someone who

Mies van der Rohe nothing is left to chance. We enter in the very
personal universe of one who has created it. Each piece tells a little

little history of the one who has acquired it...
