How stunning is this wall of doors by Dutch designer Piet Hein Eek for an Amsterdam residential project? Eek adorned the lofty foyer walls entirely with old timber doors, bathroom doors, office doors, front doors and back doors to preserve the memory of the buildings that were torn down, to make way for a residential development. The result is a jaw-dropping foyer installation and a visual reminder of what once was. Via Azure Magazine. (Photos by Thomas Mayer).

Beautiful!!!! Now i have to start collecting old doors... :D
En la pelÃcula "Ingrid", la protagonista tiene una pared de su casa como esta con puertas :)
This is like reaching heights of creativity! Never saw or thought of something like this! Walls made up of doors!

very cool. whomever installed it was very talented too! It would have take a skilled hand and eye to put this together so well!
WOW, I agree! This is SO cool!
Love this.
Just saw this IRL on my way to work... it is near my home but I did not know about it till I saw it on local television!
The inside of the building is amazing too!
This is glorious. I love it! Imagine all the worlds behind those doors...
I LOVE this! I originally saw it on Pinterest (of course), and have been trying to figure out where in our house we could do it. I'm thinking the stair wall. How wonderful it would be if you could link a door or two to a secret storage compartment or passage!
I'm also thinking you could paint them all one color (red!), or leave them the color you found them What a wonderful way of preserving the past.
This looks like it would be very difficult to install but the end result is well worth the labor. I love how magical it looks, like Naomi said, just imagine everything behind those doors! If only...
