A Peaceful Place
The spirit of craftmansship
After careful research
into the history of the house in Berlin-Charlottenburg, the old interior was
completely removed, and three new sight lines were created parallel to the
street front. This concept supports the client’s desire for tangible spatial
transparency. Deep vistas enable a generous living experience. Threshold-free
passages in different directions of the apartment, e.g., from the bedroom via
the bathroom into the kitchen, allow for free movement.

‘THE RESIDENCE EXEMPLIFIES PURE MINIMALISM IN DAILY LIFE. THE ATMOSPHERE IS DELIBERATELY CONTEMPLATIVE. ALL SURFACES AND NATURAL LIGHT ENTER A QUIET DIALOGUE.’

The apartment is
equipped with floor-to-ceiling revolving and sliding doors that act as ‘moving
walls’ and allow for versatile and continuous circulation. The former servant’s
staircase has been transformed into a generous shower experience with only a
few incised openings. High gloss finishes for the flush cabinets and kitchen
furniture are contrasted with matt lacquered doors. A matt white oiled oak
floor connects all areas.
