In Berlin, A Showcase For The Dark Side Of Modernism

Expansive views and sun-drenched interiors may possibly be a hallmark of Moderism, but what’s a Modernist with neither views nor sun to do? If you’re German interior designer and stylist Peter Fehrentz, and possessed with each vision and imagination, you build a property of singular, unexpected beauty—exactly what Fehrentz did with his Berlin pied-à-terre. Utilizing a colour scheme of dark hues—eggplant, charcoal, black—and a startling flourish of pink, Fehrentz, who wished a “cocoon—a cozy, capsule-like retreat inside the lively metropolis,” has transformed a sunless, tiny roomed dwelling into an open-system gem a planet away from light and airy Modernism. Fehrentz was correct right after anything akin to the deep, burnished hues located in Flemish Outdated Master paintings, and we’d say he managed to get there—masterfully.
