You can't.

But you can make your classes and/or members only visible within the same
assembly (dll) with the "internal" keyword (C#).

You can also limit visibility to itself and all derived classes using the
"protected" keyword (C#).

You can't, I'm afraid. Namespaces don't have any effect on
accessibility.
 
What you CAN do is look at the call stack, see who is calling you, and throw
an exception if not from the correct namespace. Not pretty, not elegant,
but if you have to do it, you have to do it.
