Similar to my previous post on functionalism, and a recent house tour in Sweden, this penthouse apartment has a very minimal style – following the function of its spaces. It’s also near a zoo! Enjoy!

This penthouse is right in the centre of Berlin. Look at that view! The place is kept pretty simple for that focus, I imagine.

An eclectic vintage pad in Schöneberg
Berlin is known for individuality, and Rote Insel – a district of the city – is too (literally ‘Red Island’ due to the railway trenches and leftist sympathies that characterised the place). For some reason the area survived many of the air raids during the war and managed to retain a lot of its characterful period buildings such as this one. The island was home to famous entertainers such as Hildegard Knef (who I imagine was singing about the island here) and Marlene Dietrich (acting alongside the great David Bowie in this video). What better location for an apartment as eclectic as this?
