The interior design of this Berlin loft is mainly characterized by the dynamic lines of
the open, bright space and the shape of the customized dark cubes.
Intimate and serving features, such as bathrooms, the dressing room and the kitchen, are
situated inside of and around the cubes. Due to their wooden surfaces, the cubes seem like
pieces of furniture – the traditional fragmentation of spaces trough dividing walls become
obsolete.
The axes of the loggias towards the square in front of the building form the starting
point for the dynamics of the flowing interior. In order to visually support the sharp
lines of the cubes, all paintings or power outlets were integrated into the walls of the
cubes.
The staircase from the loft to the upper floor/ roof terrace is decorated with an
individual and personal ceiling mural.
