newspaper office 'Nieuwsblad van het Noorden' #2

Following up on yesterday's post these are a few photo's with details of the colorful tiles on the former office of this regional newspaper. Art Nouveau, or 'Jugendstill', as an architectural style was most popular during the years 1890-1910. It was inspired by natural forms and structures, not only in flowers and plants but also in curved lines.



Nowadays this building is the location of an employment agency and was modernised inside, however  there are still some nice details of the past to be found, like the ceilings. More to follow.
