Hinges inspirations :)

I want the office's door to look a bit more like in the castle. Specially on the outside:) I thought of hinges and a handle and found Polish site freha.pl with the people fascinated by gothic times. I found some great picrures there. This is one of them: This is the door in the Malbork's Middle Castle in Poland. Love the hinges:) The next picture I found in one of Polish weekly magazines: This is the castle in Olsztyn - Poland also. Great hinges but I guess too fancy for Snape's office ;) And the last photo - a bit different as it is a window ;) - I found at freha.pl too. Amazing window grating. That's the castle in Czech Republic. There are only two beams. Just look at the vertical girder and the way it is crumpled up! Beautiful artwork of the blacksmith!
Tomorrow I will show you what I came up with the door hinges for the office.

The iron work in all of those pics is truly a work of art. Will be interested to see how you manage to convert the inspiration to mini 'reality' :)
