Final Major Project - chateau pictures

For several weeks in the summer before this final year of university I worked at a chateau in a small rural village in France.
The chateau itself is beautiful, albeit still with some areas right at the top to restore, but it has several guest rooms in the style of the era it was built as well as a large restaurant room, bar, breakfast room and hallways with chandeliers suspended from the ceiling.
Below are two photographs I took to show the shape of the chateau and the beautiful shape of the main stairway.

 

After working here I have several ideas; I would like to work in ceramics to create pieces either in the style of objects seen and found in the chateau or reflecting French culture in some way.
