Eccentric in Berlin: a Space for an Architect to Live and Work
This inspiring live / work space in Berlin is as eccentric as its owner and architect, Jorg Ebers. The four-storey building devotes the upper two floors for residential use, with commercial space occupying the lower two levels. The bones of the building are as eccentric as the eclectic decor pieces that fill it. Ceilings of varying heights create different interior views from room to room, adding interest and a sense of openness inside. But what we love most about this home is the element of surprise – you never know what’s waiting around every corner. From its double-height ceilings and upper level lofts, to book nook, a winding staircase and of course, an extreme color palette – the designer explains, the use of color is a simple but effective decor tool, and he certainly makes the most of it.
