Berlin Neu

Set in a remodelled warehouse, this apartment in Berlin perfectly reflects the dynamism of the city. Eclectic influences and contrasting styles are unified by a clever use of colour and materials to create a space that is as vibrant as Berlin itself.

Living Room

Berlin Neu - Living Room

Bold, clashing colours and metallic accents inform a style that is structured yet fun. Adhering to the ‘form follows function’ mantra of modernism, each of the carefully selected pieces in the living room of this Berlin apartment has a clearly defined purpose in the space. Furniture in glass and stainless steel constructed from straight lines and angles dominates – heavily echoing the Bauhaus style – whilst any decorative accessories featured have sculptural connotations.

Dining Room

A square dining table offers a more sociable dining experience than a rectangular one, and paired with upholstered leather benches instead of dining chairs, creates a very relaxed setting. Sleek glass and polished steel is juxtaposed with bohemian-influenced pieces such as velvet cushions, a carved console and a cutwork throw, for a clever contrast of styles. Lighting is key when dining, so an adjustable lantern hung over of the centre of the table allows you to control the intensity of the light.

Bedroom

A red and black colour scheme combined with wall-to-wall bookcases makes this bedroom seem a little serious; however, playful touches can be found throughout, from the leopard print throw to the unusually shaped bedside table. Elegant pieces punctuate the decor, whilst luxurious velvet cushions and thick woollen rugs warm up the look.
